Hey everybody,

Due to the bombardment of Elon Musk content, the mods have decided to make a pinned mega thread. Please post all of your Elon Musk related news, gossip, technology and articles here.

We know many of you are deeply interested in Elon Must, but we need to allow space for other technology content as well.

As always, be excellent to each other.

Yours truly, moderators.

      i do think there is a (unlikely) scenario where tesla’s value begins to shrink which causes a significant liquidity problem for twitter since there is no way the site is generating meaningful revenue now, but i think that kind of speculation is pointless in the end since who knows what similarly rich doofus he could get to bail him out.

        The loans are due soon, and were guaranteed by Tesla stock, so it’s fairly likely.

        tesla will be bought by one of the big guys when they collectively take all of teslas marketshare with affordable, repairable, un-recalled versions of its products… someone will want the name. it certainly wont be for the manufacturing lines.
