Oh yeah he wouldn’t last a day if I was on the property. Thanks for the bunker Zuckie
Here's an article about that
"Disciplinary collars". JFC, that's some Cyberpunk 2077 bullshit right there.
How fucking appalling that anyone other than a fantasy writer trying to create a dystopia hellscape would even float that idea as reasonable.
This is how you can tell they've seriously thought things through and definitely have a good plan.
I’m reading that book right now.
Special combination locks really, nothing can stop a determined man with a crowbar indefinitely.
Or brutal torture to force the code out of zucky's mouth
The combination is only as secure as how much torture they can withstand.
"slight click out of one....click out of two..."
You can also find articles about one prepper that raided another prepper's bunker, and killed the dudes daughter, in an attempt to take the other guy's bunker. Another dude killed his entire family, and tried to hide in their bunker. It's not just the ultra rich, and they'll get raided by rightwing doomsday nutjobs as well.
Christ predicted the end of the world in the 1st century, and these god of war worshippers have been predicting "the end of the world" ever since.
The craziest part it that The Baha'is have a pretty good argument that the world ended in the mid 1800's. The old world did anyway. How many horses do you deal with on a daily basis? Have you managed to travel more than 10-20 miles from your birthplace? Do you happen to have access to the sum total of human knowledge, available in your hand?
That world is already over. Biblical Scholars are also pretty sure that the events described in Revelations, were talking about things that were supposed to have happened in the 1st or 2nd century.
“In time” is the funny part. They’re really just as fucked as we are.
The core premise is ridiculous. They're trying to survive an apocalypse in luxury using technology, but maintaining our level of technological luxury requires a global supply chain. The author is right, the best way to survive would be to establish a community that helps and protects each other.
more fucked really. If the government collapses the #1 thing Elon Musk knows how to do is suck the G-man's teat. The second the government has better things todo the guy is a dying cow surrounded by vultures.
I suspect they're looking into ways to keep their staff loyal, they'll be considering things like controlling the supply of an addictive drug, implanting behaviour modification chips in their brains, explosive collars, holding their kids hostage. Shit like that. Because why else would anyone be loyal to these vermin?
Elon is already sticking chips in brains, I think you’re on to something.
I think the main reason he's into Neuralink is because he hopes to be able to transfer his consciousness into one of his brood, or into a machine. 1950's immortality hyper-nerd shit.
Have a code that has to be entered twice a day to keep airflow active
