The Elon Fund: The Fund for Elon

Lindsay Graham invented the lemon party

Please ‘consider’ this for electronics as well dammit

Elon Musk is working with fascists. See the photos of him sitting with Rupert Murdoch (Fox News owner and responsible for Hannity and Tucker Carlson and really Trump/MAGA) and then at the World Cup with fascist and Trump family (Jared Kushner).

Anyone buying the illusion that this guy isn't supporting fascists, isn't paying attention. It's not a coincidence he shut off Ukraine's use of his Starlink on the eve a bigger uptick in Russian military activity.

BILLIONAIRE BAD

You can use it for normal business purposes like hiring yourself as the CEO of the charity and paying market rates as salary.

That's what the founder of the Susan G Koman Foundation (the pink "for the cure" breast cancer charity) did. According to the following article she made $684K in salary in 2012: https://www.cnbc.com/id/100803324

The percentage of sales has increased roughly 30-50% every year, depending on if someone has just ramped a factory or released a high volume model.

13% last year, 18 this year, 25 next year, 35% the year after, etc.

It goes quickly.

Bing has already wasted enough of our time by getting in the way of being the default browser on windows.

Because there WASN'T a fast charging DC infrastructure or standard when they started building their network. At this point you'd be asking them to retrofit thousands of stations at their cost because the standard is now set. That's the argument.

I happen to be on your side and think it's better to open the network than not.

Cofounded like actually helped start the company or "cofounded" like he did Tesla and Paypal: https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/tesla-ceo-settles-for-founder-title/2088887/

It’s copyright. As in, the right to (control) copies.

It’s clearly trained on a ton of social media comments & posts. I mean we already know that’s the case but this shit really makes it obvious. Reading these kinds of interactions feels like being in a stupid argument on here or twitter or whatever.

What happens to the money in his own charity? You can’t just spend it on anything.

Not really. More than 80% of EVs on the road are Teslas already, so opening the chargers up to a small minority of other cars isn't going to affect usage very much.

That isn't going to change any time soon either, Tesla will likely sell as many EVs in the US this year as everyone else combined, so new Tesla buyers are going to be putting more pressure on the network than non-Teslas will.

On the flip side, this gives Tesla funding to accelerate their charging network roll out even faster than it is now.

>But once we start having every day people using their chargers, teens hanging out charging. Farmer Bob with pigs in the back of the truck etc.

Tesla owners are every day people. There's nothing more mainstream than a 5 seat CUV and the Model Y was the 4th best selling vehicle in the world last year.

First of all, I don't care if they built it first. EV infrastructure is too important to let one company monopolize it.

Second, if they want to go it alone then let them do it alone. Ban Teslas from the CCS network that everyone else is collaborating on.

But Tesla doesn't appear to be happy with that. They created an adapter so that their cars can use CCS chargers, released it last year.

Tesla sees the value in their customers being able to use a large charging infrastructure that includes CCS chargers. If they want that, then they should have to join it and make their chargers part of it. Get a little, give a little.

Or just go it completely alone. Ban them from CCS chargers. And no tax breaks for them installing chargers, since they are not adding to public infrastructure. And no relief from electricity demand charges as public chargers get, as they are not public infrastructure.

California already implemented some of this, the Feds other parts. Let's just wrap it all up together and let Tesla decide if going it alone really is better than being part of the shared build out.

Hilarious how you say the US is terrible at doing public infrastructure. Might that be because people such as yourself reject proposed plans like mine which would create a better public infrastructure?

TIL Narcissistic Billionaire Morons Without Filters is a charity organization.

It already causes problems for credit approvals, fraud detection, etc. However, this is very different from a sentient AI trying to become our digital overlord.

He gets to get the tax write-off at current inflated value and also use the money to fund anything he wants through his private foundation.

Most tax donations writeoffs are worth 50% towards your taxed income. If you also 'lose' money in that fiscal year you also can write that off. Combine those two together and its a recipe to dodge taxation.

You keep admitting to me being correct

>The filing did not name the recipient, or recipients, of the donation.

Or using it to launder bribes

He literally knows nothing about these things. He’s not an engineer, does not have a PhD, and has done very little actual work during his career. Change my mind
