IMHO This car will be far less capable of flying than current self driving Teslas can do self driving.

if i take a walk in my little walkable neighborhood to buy fresh flowers and crunchy nectarines and my serenity is punctured by the sound of your tesla flipping in the air, i will blow up your car with a rocket launcher

i can only assume that the men — and it’s all men — so easily impressed by elon’s latest faked demo are very insular and do not participate in anything outside of “tech world” making a demo car is nowhere on the chart of “impressive things people do” look at cirque du soleil. or magic.

I would had known that a car with any kind of thrusters, a big lithium ion battery + rocket fuel wouldn't be able to be sold or circulate on public roads but in very limited parts of the USA and maybe a few libertarian paradise countries. But alas as usual IMHO more vapor out of his ass.

Not going to lie had he showed a real production car that could fly, not just do controlled falls and stupid stunt's and told delivery of the cars would start January 27 I would had been impressed, incredulously impressed. 😅🤣

The people cheering for the "flying car" demonstration thing kind of remind me of the unhinged Buzz Light-year insisting he was capable of flying.

I use to feel this way for a long time a long time ago, I got used to be alone but thinking about the future was hard. I got lucky, I moved to a different country, a totally new environment and found somebody special, hope you find someone too.

A definite sign of ageing is that you cannot impress me with "over 20 years" anymore. Am I expected to think this sauce is ancient, because it's as old as Nelly Furtado's Maneater?

This is my Dell GYIAT that I need to retrobright. It's one of the original Dell AT101 keyboards that was made by Alps and it's awesome, I almost like it as much as the Apple Extended Keyboard M0115. You can really see the Yellowing here, compared to that Northgate Omnikey on the right.
