    I’ve actually had to block her account on Reddit, because it’s usually low effort humor or just plain drama, but always highly upvoted - so always comes on top of your feed, in place of other comics. But you don’t have that option here since it’s not the official account posting…

    I wish there was a comic creator label in such post titles, so we could easily filter them.





  • Even more bonus points for including an IZOT Bulgarian 8" disk, just the same as I’ve seen at my dad’s workplace as a kid 😄 They kept them on the shelves for historical reasons at this point I guess, because most PCs there had the 3.25" ones.

    Damn, this took me down memory lane… now I need some Fortran punchcards to wipe my tears with.





  • Used to be the other way around, their more detailed reviews were on the website, again Steve doing the writing, YT being more of a complimentary channel. But I guess once the YT channel started to take off, he saw the hard cold truth that it just gathers way more attention and gradually focused less on the text reviews.

    Tbh I preferred their website more, gave me the option to read it at my own pace, and focus on the parts I care most about, not fiddle with forward and rewind on YT, and having to pause to look at the charts in more detail and peace from the cosntant commentary track.







  • Actually, the way I understand it, he won’t be getting it if things continue to go south for Tesla.

    Goals for Musk over the next decade include the company’s delivering 20 million vehicles, having 1 million robotaxis in operation, selling 1 million robots and earning as much as $400 billion in core profit. But in order for him to get paid, Tesla’s stock value has to rise in tandem, first to $2 trillion from the current $1.5 trillion, and all the way to $8.5 trillion.

    Achieving each step - an operational goal and a valuation milestone - awards Musk 1% of stock. So the plan could still hand Musk tens of billions of dollars even if he falls short of most of its ambitious targets.

    If Musk hits all of them, he would be eligible for 12% in stock, or about $1 trillion.

    It’s not a completely dumb plan by the investors to keep him focused on the company, but certainly is bonkers renumeration and wild direction.

    Personally, I think their investments will be safer with him waaay away from Tesla, rather than concocting hail-mary schemes to drive an already severely inflated stock to even more inflated valuations.

    But hey, I don’t invest in shares, so what do I know, and what do I care about theze bozos.
