I'm glad this picked up traction. It was obvious with Diablo 4 & painfully obvious with his Elden Ring build.The guy always boasting about how great he as at games turns out to have very little functional knowledge of the games he's great at while live-streaming the game he's great at:
‘Path Of Exile 2’ Fans Say Elon Musk’s Characters Are Clearly Being Boosted
Elon Musk supposedly has god-tier, ultra-geared, endgame-stomping characters in Path of Exile 2. Except the community and its pros say, no, he doesn’t.www.forbes.com
... and then subsequently, coincidentally, loses the game after this is all pointed out, rendering the exercise pointless:
Percy_Verence, Elon Musk's infamous Path of Exile 2 hardcore character, dead at level 97
Must've been all that low-level gear.www.pcgamer.com
And as pointed out, the amount of dedication someone would need to the task would seem improbable anyway, given the running four companies, setting up a massive government department, all the international travel he won't let people talk about on his site, and being a great parent to at least one cute little human shield he's been wearing since Luigi blue-shelled that guy, and all the ketamine.
This forum knows as best as anyone, the gaming community isn't one to try & BS with these type of claims, b/c there will always be people familiar with a specific game with enough hours in it to make a full-time working joe blush, who will call you out.

The Securities and Exchange Commission sued Elon Musk on Tuesday, alleging the world’s richest person failed to publicly disclose his acquisition of Twitter shares on time, resulting in him acquiring a stake in Twitter at artificially low prices.
Musk, the agency alleged, underpaid for his stake in Twitter by $150 million, “for shares he purchased after his beneficial ownership report was due.”
The tech entrepreneur alleged last month that the SEC had sent him a settlement demand in the matter, which stemmed from a probe into his 2022 acquisition of Twitter that examined his share purchases for potential fraud. In a letter Musk posted to X at that time, his attorney appeared to allege the matter was politically motivated.
This is a developing story and will be updated.

This story is more about the consequences of Elon's Antics™, than the antics themselves. Tesla's US sales continue to elude their goals, with declines across the board in the S3XY models.
Usually, "Not A Tesla App" will spin bad Tesla news rather positively, however in the post below, it's painting a stark picture of flagging sales, firstly blaming a lack of refreshed models, and moving on to call out Musk's antics:-
"While Elon’s involvement in politics isn’t something that is surprising - it does appear it has played a role in sales in the U.S.
Even the Model 3 saw a sharp decline in sales, even after a recent refresh that provides a much better vehicle.
The new Model 3 is a world above the Ford Mach-E, Ioniq5, and others, but somehow, those vehicles saw year-over-year sale improvements of 25%+ while the Model 3 was down 17%."
The silver lining in this news is for potential Tesla buyers. I can personally report that our 2024 Model Y is the best car I've ever owned in my long life, and these poor sales numbers are likely to lead to even more price cuts, with incentives including low interest rates and periods of free Supercharging and "Full" Self Driving subscriptions.

I'm sorry to quote this again, but it's gotten even better & I think @TexRex will find humor in this.The guy always boasting about how great he as at games turns out to have very little functional knowledge of the games he's great at while live-streaming the game he's great at:

Backstory. A big Twitch streamer, Asmongold (who has leaned deep into right-wing grifting), loves to rage about gaming "controversies" for hours, was being questioned by the community as to why he was being a bit quiet on Elon's POE2 lies. Asmongold did comment on it a little bit. The video IIRC, is around 3 minutes of commentary & the rest of it is Quin69's video who exposed Elon & posted on Asmongold's 2nd channel away from his pro-conservative stuff. It's nowhere as critical as others have been, tmu, b/c Asmongold knows his audience loves Elon.
But, Elon has decided in the last 24 hours, that Asmongold's mild reception to his POE2 lies, was too much, so he removed his Blue Checkmark & is sharing a Twitter DM conversation between the two from November that talks about Asmongold running something by his video editors. Elon takes this as proof that Asmongold just pretends to be an "independent", but is really being bought & paid for. He think's Asmongold's video editors are the equivalent of a newspaper editor.... More so, one of the editors is known to make sure Asmon's content is cut to specifically appeal to "anti-woke" watchers.

Does he not know the difference between someone who technically 'edits' video material and a "editor" in the news or publication realms? - or does he just not care the word has several different meanings when there's an opportunity to throw shade on someone who isn't entirely fanatical about him?
