who spends time thinking about how badass he'd be in various kinetic engagements.Elon really is the king of dumb guys that peaked in high school.
This is probably the best succinct explanation I've read of Elon.
The only problem with this analysis is that, from what I remember, everyone in his highschool hated him.
So, more like "what a perennial loser thinks someone who peaked in Highschool would be like" which is even sadder.
It might have been a very low peak, but it was still his peak.
Seriously though, love the last point…bang on.
The Cybertruck will protect you from most muzzleloader fire, but watch out for the enemy 12-pounders
The cybertruck will stop enemy crossbow bolts but beware the arquebusiers
You really think it could stop a crossbow bolt? Like from a war crossbow armed with an armor piercing spike?
No way lmao
Rotating the image of Elon getting domed by a war crossbow through the window of a Cybertruck in my mind palace rn tho, absolutely sensational

I couldn't find an actual picture of him sitting in a cyber truck.

Okay, now I have to write some kinda music thing titled "Beware the Arquebusiers"
I need a genre, an instrument that you want to carry the melody, and some kinda lyrical angle or hook or something
I'm thinking dbeat? Black metal? Crust? Guitar driven probably?
Some medieval ish crusty stuff like Barrow Wright or Weald & Woe
GOOD rec
Checking them out
I was kinda thinking of like, The Secret or Young & In The Way (fuck their bassist though, don't support them financially)
How the hell have I not listened to Barrow Wight yet? I just assumed it was a black metal band!
Enjoy! Also try Bretwaldas of Heathen Doom. A little Maiden, a little Amebix, a little medival aesthetics.
Okay. Barrow Wight hit things well and it helps I'm a huge Tolkien geek, but when crust gets too far down that metal road I start to lose interest. I'll check em out but I do know Barrow Wight is succeeding at something I'm normally not into. My taste in stenchcore is refined and snobby as hell.
Yeah, i think you'll probably like BHD more than youd guess going into it, but you might not be as enthusiastic as BW. I like a little more metal in my crust, the Prophecy of Doom LP is something that's created an itch that nothing else I've heard has seemed to scratch. I don't even like death metal that much, but the older, slower style blended with punk they do hits it for me. Can't get into neocrust myself, so I get what you're saying with having specific taste.
The car is bullet proof except for where someone would aim their bullets normally
And only if they're nice enough to use subsonic ammo lmao
Lol, the reason he specifies a tommy gun is because it's .45 caliber, and standard 45 ammo is subsonic by default. It will literally only stop that, a standard 9mm will go right through. And knowing the cybertruck, I wouldn't be surprised if they just shot it with a 45 handgun and decided "yup, it stops .45" and never actually tested it out of a longer barrel.
This is not fiction.

That stood out to me too...most guns and ammunition are NOT subsonic because bullets traveling faster than the speed of sound is what makes them effective. Like okay neat your truck can stop a BB gun. But you won't even hear the shot when an M2010 round goes through your door and out the other side.
I just assumed it was a reference to Sonny getting killed in the Godfather. But of course they shoot through the windows in that scene anyway.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

You joke, but the cybertruck has the same "I fucking love science" techbro vibes as the delorian, the only car to have ever been used for time travel.
Show
I imagine the fumes from a lithium fire could cause one to hallucinate that they're traveling through time in the inevitable event the truck spontaneously combusts.
The comparison works well because the Delorean was also a pile of shit created by a drugged up ultra rich dickhead
It was also a commercial flop, that doomed the company that created it to bankruptcy.
I understand taking design cues from the DeLorean, I don't understand why they decided to replicate DeLorean Motors any% bankruptcy speedrun
Extremely cursed Back to the Future reboot/remake featuring a time-traveling Cybertruck
oh yeah for sure. youre right, not a movie. 4 seasons, with enough content for two but padded out
Yeah. But it’ll be made entirely in Grok AI so it will be extra chewed through slop.
A divorced dad travels back in time in his cybertruck to the moment his wife left him and took the kids and sets it all right with the help of the professor.

I gotta watch this movie again it's been ages.
"John Wayne came to the door in a dress."
Me and a Buddy have watched it and Walker (1987) like 3 times in the last year. Gonna watch them again soon now that we found rips with Alex Cox's commentary
E) The movie is Repoman (1984) for anyone who doesn't already know

It would be the perfect vehicle for bootlegging if only it had range, reliability, hauling capacity, and didn't stick out like a sore thumb!
Modern remake of Smokey and the Bandit with cybertrucks and the beer run is over in 20 minutes after the bandit has to recharge, and the other 70 minutes of the movie are them being needlessly brutalized by the police
You can probably also identify them reliably even without the license plate just by looking at the discoloration and corrosion patterns on the panels.
So it would be perfect, apart from the fact that it’s not perfect.
Also, I'm pretty sure it's not even resistant to subsonic projectiles
Couple of CyberTruck bros shot up their trucks to prove it and ended up ruining them
I can't figure out why people are being so dense about it. The sheets used for the door on the production vehicles are 14ga (1.8mm thick) 301 stainless steel. Some of the original prototypes used 3mm thick, which would approach some level of effectiveness against handgun ammo. But because that just makes the whole truck heavy as fuck for no reason, they did the obvious thing, which was to just use thinner, non-bullet-proof steel.
I assumed it definitely isn't. Not because I've seen those videos, but it's just safe to assume
is full of shit.
Oh hell yes! Some chud is absolutely going to film himself "proving" this, and I am here for it
80% of those videos look like the guy has never fired a gun in his life and is a little scared of it
Which normally would be whatever, who cares, but these are people who jack themselves off over the 2nd ammendment

What about a Subzero Ice Punch? Can the Cybertruck stop a Frigimon?
The kinds of people who are into this shit are the same kinds of people who live in the quietest suburb you can think of, keep a loaded gun on their bedside table, and tell everyone that will listen about how safe they are because they do it and how stupid you are for not doing it.
You can take the man out of South Africa, but you can't take South Africa out of the man.
