“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
Mr richest man on earth with tesla and space x doesn’t even have an electric private jet
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.
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
Magnifying glass makes things bigger, checkmate! 🔍🔍
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.
Sir, our air defence is down!
Is it hackers?
No sir, it’s cloudy.
Guy whose cars run into stopped fire trucks thinks he’s an expert on computer vision.
But was it a “stealthy” fire truck??
Yes, but the car only had enough low-light cameras but not enough rudimentary AI
Someone died because one of those cars thought the broadside of a white semi trailer was the sky and drove under it
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.
Elon Musk is an idiot
someone tell ellen about beyond visual range
Elon Denegerate
Watch as he dances under every low bar
Easy. Just build a giant ball of telescopes and ban water
Just use multiple nuclear power plants to power an AI that constantly scans the sky.
Are we sure he’s not an NCD poster?
Edit to add - Musk unlocked the achievement, personal enemy of the DoD and entire defense industry. I’m getting popcorn for this.
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.
Also… Fighters are fast, the point is you should fire the missile before you see it.
The f-35 is built for engagements outside the horizon, like, the target is blocked by the curvature of the earth.
Light sensitive cameras and rudimentary AI…
Pssh, all you need is a gravity lens to bend the light, problem solved!
So we use a black hole to bend space time and look into the past where it isn’t. We know where it isn’t in the past.
but have you considered that if i can’t see it then it doesn’t exist?
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?
Small reminder that this assheads gets a gobbernment position
Dude’s brain is shit design and fucking sucks, actually
