OH... I can paste here so you don't have to go to my dumb old blog, but images/receipts in case I'm right and it's gone later:

Did I find an Elon Musk alt account?

If so, a billionaire tech guy is using an avatar that’s never been used but by him? It’s insane.

Cybetruck defender “@DhalgrenMarquis” in this thread (screencaps below) –https://reddit.com/r/CyberStuck/comments/1fuulhv/elon_is_tha...

Look at the account’s new avatar on twitter: https://x.com/DhalgrenMarquis

The account DEFINITELY SOUNDS LIKE UNHINGED ELON.

BUT... Reverse image tineye search shows avatar only appeared once in history… 2022 to Elon. WHAT? https://tineye.com/search/2758dc69ac96d17ded5b33f1d3964a1b77...

It leads to this tweet in that tineye search that is just Elon. It’s replying to a “mars” account, which is the only other account that Dhalgren Marquis follows. https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1566848612092477451

FWIW: Dhalgren: Science Fiction from 1975 about an unknown catastrophe that cuts off part of the world. Marquis: nobility, etc.

There’s ZERO chance that isn’t an official Elon Musk alternate account right? What does the guy even do?

Architects design buildings with the heaviest load being paper. Paper is the heaviest thing in a building.

Annihilation is one of the most underappreciated films in decades. That thing is so amazing. Garland's work is fantastic.

The (not AAA, just a dude made it) game "The Shore" is a Lovecraftian short walking simulator that has a lighthouse feature rather prominently. DO NOT WATCH THE TRAILER. But if you like lighthouses, Cosmic horror, body horror and can play a walking simulator, you might look at it. I would rec, but who am I?

I too was confused by the statement. I went to VP2, which I think has best specs on the market, and even w/ slight loss of vertical, it's amazing and fun.

Half-Life: Alyx and many other games, like SO MANY... Moss, Job Simulator / Vacation Simulator, Rick and Morty, Accounting Plus, In Death, The Lab, Beat Sabre, etc... all super fun.

But Alien: Isolation in VR is the greatest entertainment experience of my life. Amazing.

Vive Pro 2 is literally the best specs on the market right now, followed by Valve Index.

HTC Vive, Vive Pro 2 are stellar and fun. I use it with Steam. VP2 is basically market leader right now. The Valve Index is also wonderful.

HTC Vive Pro, therefore, is a wonderful solution. It's spendy because its properly priced without marketing gimmicks like Uber, Amazon, or FB do to subsidize the price to take over the world. It's the most fun "entertainment" experience of my life.

As their long form journalism with moving graphics and images is so popular and gets so many clicks, think how awe inspiring and what a major effect it would have to shut down all of that stuff on articles talking about that stuff, just to give people a dose of what it could/would be like. It would be respected, get other articles about it, etc.

Fakespot is so important if you continue to use the Amazon. If you're not buying name brand, you are likely buying a crappy product with gamed reviews. It is a nightmare on Amazon now and it pisses me off at Amazon refuses to address it.

Portland are TSA. SF is subcontracted. In my experience on the west coast, the real TSA blow the pants off the subcontracted ones. Portland is AAAAAaaamazing

I had at least 2 people who never did it because it felt like someone got high at burning man and tried too hard.

Just sharing my experience:

I wasn't in search of it, but I'm known as a creative and energetic guy that loves fun and am totally curious, etc. I am 100% the target market, except that I am 40. A younger guy involved with The Institute film gave me a key. I alone found it charming. I didn't take it seriously. For fun, I thought to invite some friends. I think 6? Every single one of them had a weird experience where people took it far, FAR too seriously. I, at one point, had to accompany a good friend and his young girlfriend, at night, in the rain, in a foreign city to them. When I was going up the stairs to the final room, some people high on fake power and taking the whole thing FAR too seriously gave us a chilling and somewhat disturbing lecture about how serious it is for people to do it on their own, etc. It was unbelievably absurd, and destroyed all the simple charm. I abandoned it after that. When delightful ideas try way too hard... it vacates the intent.

This is nonsense. The idea that the whole world shrugged their shoulders and gave up is nonsense. Facebook won the first round of social media... but it's all shifting.

FB has poor architecture, it's a dinosaur and bulky,

the network isn't real http://www.hrabaconsulting.com/blog/2010/06/21/hidden-stream...

people don't want to interact with brands... the narcissism prevents community. It's about the "ME", when it's really about all the other nodes in the network. http://www.hrabaconsulting.com/blog/2010/09/01/facebook-bran...

With 1000 friends I do market research all the time.. no one likes it, it's broken for most everyone in some way at some point, they've burnt their bridges endlessly... and the business model of saying

We are #1, because we are #1 is ridiculous.

Facebook has lost it's "plot" in the story of social networking. They are doing it wrong, and people will laugh at it deeper and harder than myspace ever got. http://www.geeksaresexy.net/2010/09/04/have-we-lost-the-plot...

It's going to die, for sure.

But now that I see your update... well okay then. I won't.
