Is Elon Musk's Business Empire Collapsing?

  • No it is absolutely not theft. It is not theft by law. (There's a reason why we have both "theft" and "infringement" in the lawbooks: they're different things!) It is not theft morally. (Theft removes the owner's ability to use something. Infringement does not. Infringement is a lesser moral crime if it is a crime at all.)

    Please do not fall into the trap the IP holders like to lay by equating theft and infringement in your mind. You can have your opinions on whether infringement is bad or not (and the facts are … complicated with both sides being largely full of shit on this), but it is a matter of fact that theft and infringement are entirely different things.

    Use the right term for the offence. Don't let IP holders' deliberate conflation to confuse the issue get to you.

  • I'd probably go with a huxian (狐仙). I mean look at the benefits:

    1. Shape-shifting out the door. That's always fun.
    2. Since they're on a path to becoming an immortal (仙) there's less of that morally grey area that the huli jing (狐狸精) bring with them. I mean sure, seducing scholars to trick them could be great fun (geeks and nerds are my type), but it's not really conducive to immortality, is it?
    3. As a huxian I'm revered by the people who encounter me (as opposed to the huli jing who is often villainized and chased out).
    4. Through "inner alchemy" (内丹) I cultivate in myself ever increasing magic powers like weather manipulation, herbal mastery, and astral projection.
    5. In the end I become an immortal worshipped by scholars and others and can even start mentoring scholars who are cultivating themselves.

    And all that without the tediousness of tending to Inari's whims (kitsune) or being in a predatory cycle with no form of cultivation or improvement (gumiho). I'm just a well-regarded philosopher-fox.

    You're not doing Studio Ghibli memes are you?

  • This is obviously wrong? Three baby elephants inside a soda can means about 650,000kg/m³ if I haven't screwed up the thumbnail estimates. IIRC the densest element we know is osmium and that's "only" about 25,000kg/m³ (give or take some since it's been ages since I learned anything like this).

  • Anything made in the USA (though that is not primarily because of cost of living, only partially). I used to stop off at various street food vendors for a snack on the way home every second day or so, but now I maybe do that once a month. And that is cost of living related entirely.

  • I think you're missing the point. An American will see the "impact" of the "US President" "globally" while someone in Nigeria will have completely different concerns for what the Big Thing™ will be, and it will be Nigerian-centric, while someone having this same "itch" in Finland will have something Finnish-centric (say, Russia invading again) as their version and so on and so forth.

    And yet, historically, when a Big Thing™ strikes it strikes from an unexpected direction from an unexpected place with unexpected outcomes for the overwhelming majority of humanity.
