Very true, but due to its size, it doesn't really make sense to focus on it.

I was never a fanboy, but 10 years ago I had hope that he and his companies would make the world a better place.

I never looked much into him as a person, but the promise of neat electric cars and humans living on Mars made it seem like the world was on a decent trajectory.

I was obviously naive in hindsight, but on the surface everything seemed to be fine.

I think he genuinely changed as well though. Sure, some of the stuff people believe was obviously wrong in hindsight, but his unhinged tweets just weren't a thing 10 years ago.

Some of the comments here have to be astroturfing. I can't believe that real people would rather be in an office with colleagues than have more time for friends and family.

In a sea comics posted in the internet, you need something to stand out. In this case it's die-people.

Don't worry, much like the person wielding it, it will never see any action.

That's not true. In university we did some base-32 calculations just for "fun". We had to use letters of the alphabet for digits after 9, but that's no different from what people are used to with hexadecimal numbers.

Well, the 2020s so far seem to resemble the 1930s surprisingly closely. So if we haven't destroy us by then, chances are things won't be that different.

"S. S. Self" could be a decent boat name I guess.
