Introducing the next product innovation from Elongated Muskrat: The Caliper Company

You will live to see man-made horrors beyond your comprehension

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 56 points 6 months ago

Come on he's doing the yakub thing totally unselfconsciously i can't work with this!

[-] CoolYori@hexbear.net 52 points 6 months ago

Why do I read Musk in Measureheads voice? Like this is a bit right out of Disco Elysium.

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 49 points 6 months ago

It would rule if a drunk guy just walked up to Musk and knocked him out with a spinning kick to the head

[-] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 28 points 6 months ago

Not gonna happen; consequences of nerds telling everybody not to do adventurism.

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 26 points 6 months ago

That barely even counts. If someone has the chance and is able to do the prison time that will for sure follow, fucking go for it. Adventurism is when you and your organization decide to start bombing places before doing any helpful stuff thst would get people on your side so you can get away with bombing places.

[-] EelBolshevikism@hexbear.net 19 points 6 months ago

doing random crime by yourself is still adventurism. I’ve seen people rag on anarchists for doing the exact thing of individually assassinating leaders, at least.

[-] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 17 points 6 months ago

Well then maybe the nerds shouldn't have been such nerds about it.

YOUR SMALL HEAD BETRAYS YOUR IDIOCY

lmao there are crows smarter than him

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 15 points 6 months ago

Corvids are probably the coolest birds. They are smart as hell and they're goth as fuck as a bonus.

Elon Plan selectively breeding white people until they make Anti-Yakub and then in a cruel twist of fate Anti-Yakub invents black people. Truly, time is a flat circle.

[-] iridaniotter@hexbear.net 40 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

He's right. This is why White Gladis is perhaps the smartest military leader of our times. Her brain is 4.5x more massive than a mere human's. Long live the joint dictatorship of the proletariat of oppressed marine ecosystems! white-gladis ever-given qin-shi-huangdi-fireball

[-] 420stalin69@hexbear.net 35 points 6 months ago

Larmarckism is true.

Case in point: society allows giant parasite douche bags to become billionaires and almost instantly Elon evolved to exist.

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 35 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Guarantee this dude heard the word "assortative" in the last 24 hours.

You know how in the Big Lebowski the character "The Dude" says things that he just heard to other people to sound like he knows what's going on? And you're supposed to laugh at it because its funny when he tries to half ass explain something somebody else told him? That's Elon. Except with none of the chill. Or friends. Or day drunk grace. Or imagination. But he does share one aspect. As Walter says in the film, "Dude, you don't have a wife."

[-] Chapo_is_Red@hexbear.net 33 points 6 months ago

Let's say it's true humans will be "dumber than house cats compared to AI" does he really think selective breeding (which takes generations) will increase intelligence at a fast enough rate for humans to keep up given how quickly he thinks AI is advancing?

Even on his own terms this doesn't make any fucking sense.

[-] Llituro@hexbear.net 18 points 6 months ago

He can't decide which side in the butlerian jihad he wants to join so he's playing both sides so he always comes out on top. Very normal brain genius this guy.

[-] LaughingLion@hexbear.net 33 points 6 months ago

looks like someone started watching jimmy neutron

[-] WafflesTasteGood@hexbear.net 28 points 6 months ago

Literally big brain idea.

[-] davel@hexbear.net 26 points 6 months ago
[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago

He's just saying this because he has a big head isn't it?

[-] HiImThomasPynchon@hexbear.net 30 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Nah he's saying it because he thinks bigger head = bigger brain = smarter

Move aside, Humanity, we must hand the world over to the blue whales.

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago

You know what?

Better world

[-] SSJ2Marx@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

Blue Whales make the theory, Orcas do the praxis.

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago
[-] ProfessorAdonisCnut@hexbear.net 7 points 6 months ago

Their plan was a combination of deceit-based breeding program and human slavery, so yes

[-] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 23 points 6 months ago

Elon is so ahead of his time, already being dumber than AI when AI isn't even intelligent yet.

[-] Greenleaf@hexbear.net 23 points 6 months ago

I actually don’t hate Musk as much as some billionaires, but only because he’s such a dumbass it feels like he’s less dangerous than someone like Robert Mercer.

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 23 points 6 months ago

The quiet person is always the dangerous one. Add to that the old proverb that says "beware an old man in a younger man's trade." With Musk's public actions and drug abuse even his money might not let him live as long as he'd like. Meanwhile the Koch Bros chugged along for eons leaving misery in their wake.

[-] red_stapler@hexbear.net 19 points 6 months ago

Dude out here claiming people are becoming Jade Falcon aerospace pilots.

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 17 points 6 months ago

Where's the calipers emote?

[-] SootySootySoot@hexbear.net 12 points 6 months ago

In fairness. Humans did specifically massively increase brain and skull size to fit all our smarts in, no?

[-] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 34 points 6 months ago

On a time scale of millions of years, yes. Not in the last few decades. This is an insane thing to say.

[-] SSJ2Marx@hexbear.net 23 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Genetic determinists think that a couple generations of PMC people marrying other PMC people will produce a new subspecies or some shit. Like bruv even ignoring how that's not really happening the way you think it is it takes a lot more than that.

[-] IzyaKatzmann@hexbear.net 14 points 6 months ago

What's PMC mean comrade? Help those of us with smaller heads

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
