If I went to all the trouble of hacking you and I emptied your bank account and savings, I'd get $12.

If I emptied Sony's accounts, not only would I have potentially millions or more, but I could also get industrial secrets that could be worth even more, or possibly could be used to further my own electronics industry.

One of these isn't worth the effort.

In what context would that ever be useful?

If the secret police are trying to find you, they could turn on your flashlight and make hiding harder?

Broadly speaking, Feminism does mean to oppose sexism and level the field between men and women. There are of course going to be people, overwhelmingly men, who are opposed to that in the first place, but we don't care about their opinions right now.

Unfortunately, some people have taken to using the label of Feminism not to advocate for women, but to attack men. This comes in both the form of denigrating men as a whole and also attempting to erode their rights specifically. I don't think it's an especially large group, but rather is fairly vocal by nature and their message gets amplified by men eager to feel like they're actually the victims. Either way, it does somewhat taint the well of "Feminism" when a portion of it's purpose seems to just flip the oppression, rather than eliminate it.

Anti-sexism then is a more neutral term that doesn't have that "Us vs Them" mentality baked into it. It also has the added benefit of including advocating for those who don't strictly define themselves as Men or Women, being a term that opposed sex-based discrimination of all forms. Ideally, Feminism and anti-sexism would be basically synonymous, and in most use cases it would be understood to be. When presented side by side, though, the finer details will stand out more.

Of course his idiot dumbshit supporters all assume they won't be the ones suffering, it'll just be everyone else, and that makes it okay to them.

The thing about Trump's whole political career that I find most incredible is that just about any one shitty thing he ever did, in isolation, would have been absolutely career ending for anyone else, or in the very least a massive, historically significant scandal. But with him? He just keeps the hits coming, so many disasters in such quick succession that none of them really have time to sink in, there's no time to really examine them because by the time you've really called him out, there's already some other stupid shit taking up the headlines.

Obama wore a tan suit, the News cycle freaked out. Obama asked for Dijon mustard on his burger, the news says he's hopelessly out of touch with the common people. These were SCANDALS in the public eye. Trump proposes just bombing Mexico... we have to go out of our way to point out that this is actually a big deal, because next week he'll have done something else completely insane.

Do you guys remember back when Elon insisted he was a Free Speech Absolutist? How he wanted to ensure nobody was censored on Twitter? That shit just gets funnier every day.

"Escort back to China" sure is a weird way of saying they kidnapped her.

Yeah, no. Musk bought Twitter because he HAD to. He very publicly made comments about buying Twitter at absolute meme-stock prices, but didn't disclose that he already owned a LOT of Twitter stock. So, when his comments predictably increased the price of Twitter stock, he had two choices: Either it was just talk, and he was BLATANTLY guilty of stock manipulation and the Feds put a target on his back, or he acts like he totally meant it.

So he went with option two, acted like he was serious and wanted to buy twitter. Then he tried everything he could think of to kill the deal, accusing Twitter of all sorts of wrongdoing and lies, but Twitter was more careful than that. They got their shit right, and Musk couldn't back out. So he bought Twitter, rather than go to prison.

The fact that he could also kill the tracking twitter account was completely incidental. Musk is an idiot, but even he isn't that stupid. Musk initially offered $5,000 to the account holder to stop, and then balked at the return offer for $50,000. Now, I may not be a billionaire tech-bro, but I'm pretty sure that spending $50,000 to achieve a goal is preferable to spending $44,000,000,000. He's dumb, but he's not that dumb.

He's a fucking loser, and he'll never love you no matter how much you hope he notices you.

Musk isn't an Engineer. He hasn't designed anything, the extent of his responsibility for anything of value is telling other people, smarter people, to invent something. He doesn't create, he buys existing companies then parades around like he's the one that started them.

You want a shit take? Take a look at how far out of your way you went to defend him and you'll see that shit take. He hasn't used his money to improve shit. He used it to burn 20+ billion dollars on a global communications platform and turn it into a cesspit of lies and nazis.

So yeah, we'll dismiss him. Elon Musk is a fucking idiot that doesn't know when to shut the fuck up and throws a tantrum every time he's handed a loss.

Remember back when Elon kept calling himself a Free Speech Absolutist? That just gets funnier every day.

For anyone who stopped reading at the headline, it's because the material they were using didn't reach the strength requirements of the project (5,000 psi), despite what previous tests had suggested (6,000 to 8,000 psi). With revisions to the material used, they intend to begin working on the second planned house in the spring.
