How's that hyperloop going?

Tesla never had any thing to do with Hyperloop. Hyperloop was a white paper released by Elon Musk and Elon released the patents for open source.

Sure. Elon's company had nothing to do with Elon or his company.

Why hasn't ICE sent him to the Congo for working on his student visa yet?

Lol. The concept of legal ownership being dismissed as pedantry.

Pedantry is the entire thing when it comes to law.

Like the previous "We, Robot" product demo thing, which was supposedly involved a bunch of autonomous robots doing tasks. Later it turned out they were all remote-piloted by people. Musk has some history faking tech achievements to boost his stock price, or for laughs or whatever the reason is.

Why? Just pay off Trump and there’s no consequences because the dumbest people in history elected the most corrupt person in history.

> In 2020, Milton resigned as executive chairman of Nikola following regulatory inquiries.[3][4] In 2022, he was found guilty of securities and wire fraud. He was sentenced to four years in prison, a US$1 million fine and $168 million in restitution.[5][6][7]
Milton and his wife donated more than $3.2 million to Donald Trump's 2024 presidential campaign and figures in Trump's orbit.[8] In March 2025, he was given a full pardon by President Donald Trump.[9][10] As a result of the pardon, Milton will not need to compensate Nikola shareholders, who lost tens of millions of dollars.[11] In September 2025, the SEC under the second Donald Trump administrationdropped civil enforcement cases against Milton. As a consequence, Milton will not have to pay any civil penalties or face job restrictions, allowing him to work in security-related positions.[12]
