“Théoden no longer recognizes friend from foe. Not even his own kin. Saruman has poisoned the mind of the king and claimed lordship over this land. My company are those loyal to Rohan. And for that, we are banished.” - Èomer, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
someone tell ellen about beyond visual range
Easy. Just build a giant ball of telescopes and ban water
MY LENS IS DIRTY REEEeee oh wait I found alcohol.

Watch as he dances under every low bar
MUH AY-EI
Did he replace his brain with AI already? Because it sure fucking looks like it.
He has always been this stupid.
His greatest achievement has been buying contracts that state he has invented things that he didn’t invent.
Well if we’re on shitting on his character. This man had the opportunity to change the approach to implementing neuralink tech to make it less destructive but instead chose to continue with their direction. A direct competitor has since proven that there was no need to be so invasive.
I’m glad it’s been officially proven by a competitior. I’ve been shouting that since articles came out about the first human test subject. All of that invasive surgery, issues with the brain tissue pushing out some of the wires, and the best denonstrable result is that he can use a computer mouse with his mind?
There are so many damn options for accessibility with computer control (even mouse control) that don’t involve invasive brain surgery, and we know that we can monitor brain activity pretty clearly through sensors on the scalp.
For those doing the maths at home:
An F35 who obligingly flies top-towards-you (not exactly something you can do, but hey, maybe they’re turning) is all of 10m tall.
An AIM-120C can very comfortably hit a target at 100km.
At that range, the F-35 takes up 26 arcseconds, or 0.007 degrees. That’s roughly about the size of this period, at a distance of 3 meters away.

Good luck spotting that in a sky of roughly the same colour, full of other objects.
Yeah but what about the AI? Have you thought about the AI that would be running it, which never misses, and would totally be a useful existing thing? 😉
And if it isn’t, just frankenstein another AI against it. The solution to lacking AI is more AI, obviously.
“I said AI sir!”
Magnifying glass makes things bigger, checkmate! 🔍🔍
Pffffffff
I can see that bright white dot against the dark mode background on my maximum brightness screen with ease! Therefore your argument is invalid!
with a big enough screen i bet an AI camera could see it too
You can place cameras anywhere, they don’t need to be right next to what is being targeted. Nearer ranges will allow AI to misidentify at much higher rates than max standoff ranges of an AIM-120C.
I don’t think you were getting enough credit for ‘misidentify’.
Just for reference: JWST has an optical resolution of 0.07 arcseconds. It’s a mirror 22 feet in diameter though, not something you’d put inside a missile guidance package.
JWST operates in space, i.e. there is no atmosphere blurr to take into account.
Oh yeah I’m not suggesting we make a missile with JWST mounted on the front!
Well but I am!
Although, we would still need to get it back here… Okay so first we send two more rockets after it! One to return it on and one with the/a human engineer on board to pack it back up.
I mean we can hardly have it return while unpacked. That would damage the delicate heat baffles! And we need those to shield it from the rockt engine at the back of our missile so it doesn’t start targeting itself because it no longer knows where it is/isn’t…
Holy shit. I just realised that the reason they’re building the ELT is so they can mount it on a missile and shoot down an F-35 at some point.
and then also dealing with the F-35 itself, even if you managed to lock on and target it, it will have anti-warfare capabilities you have to contend with.
Yeah, sure. But that doesn’t matter if you point the AI at it with a really good zoom lens, though. And then you have a ton of them, pointed in an directions, like the compound eye of a fly. F35 spotted.
Looks like being rich and surrounding yourself with yes-people is the #1 cause of sitting confidently at the top of the Dunning-Krueger curve.
He’s riding that curve like one of those surfing dogs.
I think the better analogy is that he has set up camp on top of Mount Stupid and ain’t moving from it.
People will pilgrimage to the peak of Mount Stupid to pray at the alter of his HYPEoxia.
Well in ideal conditions it might be theoretically possible, but you know what else you can do with low-light sensitivity cameras and a rudimentary AI-based aircraft targeting system?
Says the guy that produces AND designed the cyber truck
Look. Just because people hope to not see it and actively avoid looking in the general direction of, does not make the cyber truck invisible.
Oh, if only… If then the owners could be invisible too… One can dream
If a fighter jet is within visual range of a camera, it’s already too late. And that’s if there aren’t any clouds.
your not thinking like a musk, not if the government pays the subscription and contract for his early warning camera drone balloon swarm thing or something something they could run on ketamine or something.
imagine it Smithers my electrical spy drones running all day long! and on the government dime!
Mr richest man on earth with tesla and space x doesn’t even have an electric private jet
That fucker really thinks he’s so smart when all he does is constantly demonstrate what an idiot he is.
His rise really is symbolic of the rot that has taken hold of our society. Truly, our most degenerate moron has risen to the top of the shit pile.
Look up Peter Prinzip
Sir, our air defence is down!
Is it hackers?
No sir, it’s cloudy.
Small reminder that this assheads gets a gobbernment position
Gobbment adjacent so pesky conflict of interest goes away.
He is uncomfortable when we are not about him
I mean, in comparison to some of the F-22 variants, the F-35 is a pretty big piece of shit.
That VERY much depends on mission requirements. The F35 has issues, but calling it a big piece of shit shows that you’re an internet troll who has no idea what it’s talking about
No, the designers will tell you the same. It’s a compromise, it’s not perfect at anything but it’s very good at most of it’s intended purposes. It’s that old addage don’t let perfect be the enemy of great.
Don’t get me wrong I still think it’s smiling idiot twin is the cooler plane.
