1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,080 Hello, I wore my fanciest pants today, but stuff still happened. 2 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:07,080 So what's up? 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:08,080 It's back. 4 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:09,080 We're back. 5 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:10,780 The Titan submersible. 6 00:00:10,780 --> 00:00:15,740 I mean it's not back, it's blipped out of existence at the bottom of the ocean. 7 00:00:15,740 --> 00:00:17,080 But the story's back. 8 00:00:17,080 --> 00:00:20,400 If you recall the much simpler time when we were all just dunking on the people who were 9 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:25,460 stuck in the Titan submersible underwater before it imploded, you might recall that they 10 00:00:25,460 --> 00:00:29,680 released a transcript that showed that the submersible was communicating with the mothership 11 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:35,320 saying like, hey, we're seeing some stuff happen and it's not great, but we're adjusting 12 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,280 course and we're going to fix it. 13 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,280 And then they went silent. 14 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,720 People were pouring over this transcript being like, oh my god, does this mean that they're 15 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,580 like aware that things are going bad or they're slowly suffocating and they know that they're 16 00:00:46,580 --> 00:00:48,360 never going to see the light of day again? 17 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:49,360 Nope. 18 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,080 Turns out, complete lie. 19 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,680 There's been an ongoing investigation into the situation, obviously. 20 00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:00,400 The lad from the Coast Guard who's leading this all up looked into it and found out that 21 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:01,520 it's just bullshit. 22 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,760 It turns out that the transcript from the mothership to the submersible, which as a 23 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:10,320 reminder used a $20 Logitech controller to be controlled and materials that everyone 24 00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:14,120 in the industry knew not to use, it was all fake. 25 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,640 But instead, let me read you the actual transcript. 26 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:18,640 Quote. 27 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:19,640 Unquote. 28 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:24,920 It seems much more likely and likely better for those on board that they just blipped out 29 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:25,920 of existence. 30 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,920 They had no idea what was coming and, boop. 31 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:34,840 Quite literally, investigator lad from Coast Guard said, I'm confident it's a false transcript. 32 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,800 And I'm confident that it was unnecessary. 33 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:43,960 I love the notion from billionaire folk that it's on humans to push the limits and do 34 00:01:43,960 --> 00:01:47,120 all this crazy stuff because reasons. 35 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,320 But the reason is I have so much money that I have fulfilled every possible desire and 36 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,240 the only thing left is to go to extreme lengths to try to feel something. 37 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,440 Those extreme lengths aren't making a name for yourself in history by feeding the poor 38 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,560 and housing the homeless. 39 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,000 Let's just go to the bottom of the ocean. 40 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,440 Because I want to look at the other rich people who died at the bottom of the ocean. 41 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,320 Quite literally, this fucking guy. 42 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:15,240 Elon Musk is a weird little eugenicist creep who wants to have as many children as possible 43 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,240 because he thinks that his genes are how we save the world. 44 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,280 I'm going to say up front, this is not a gag. 45 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,040 This is not a joke. 46 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,000 The tech elites in Silicon Valley genuinely are in a cult. 47 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:32,560 The actual foundation of Silicon Valley is like literally rooted in eugenics. 48 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:33,760 That's just a thing. 49 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,040 That is not a conspiracy theory. 50 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,280 That is a documented, understood phenomenon. 51 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:44,040 And it continues to this day as the tech elites from across the nation are all just doing 52 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,440 weird shit. 53 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,200 Some of them are trying to have as many kids as possible because they believe that they 54 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:54,040 are geniuses and peak humanity and must seed the next generation of geniuses to keep the 55 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,040 world spinning. 56 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,040 That's a thing. 57 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,040 Elon's one of them. 58 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:03,480 Or they take the Peter Thiel route, a longtime peer of Elon who is all about injecting himself 59 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,680 with the blood of the young to try to achieve immortality. 60 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:07,680 I'm going to say that again. 61 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,360 I'm going to say that one more time. 62 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,840 Injecting himself with the blood of the young. 63 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,400 This is super villain shit. 64 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,280 But while Elon's all big happy about the fact that Tesla investors voted to give him his 65 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:23,080 $50 billion pay package, which is quite literally incomparable to any amount of money anyone's 66 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,000 been paid for anything ever, he would like for you to not pay attention to the fact that 67 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:32,640 he has been sexually harassing and forcing women into having his children at his companies. 68 00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:37,320 I assume in some cases it was enthusiastic engagement because the creepiness of being 69 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,520 a part of this cult is not limited to men. 70 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:45,960 But the Wall Street Journal put out a report that is one of many now about Elon just serially 71 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,880 going through women in his companies at SpaceX, Tesla, etc. 72 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:55,640 And either having sex with them because he can or asking them to father his children. 73 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,000 Oh, including at least one intern. 74 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,240 I assume you're aware of the age of interns. 75 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,280 The report came from interviews of dozens of women and their family members and people 76 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,120 associated with the situations. 77 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,840 These women were basically approached by Elon. 78 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,040 He was like, Hey, have my kids. 79 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:14,520 And if they said no, they were given poor performance reviews and denied promotions. 80 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,280 The dude has at least 10 children that we're aware of with several women where there's 81 00:04:18,280 --> 00:04:19,760 definitely more. 82 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,440 He absolutely has kids we don't know about because cult. 83 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,520 I cannot stress enough that these dudes at the top of tech have been filtered. 84 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,160 They've been curated by the system. 85 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:36,200 They are the most sociopathic self-centered people who have been told their entire lives 86 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:40,920 that they are the smartest people ever and that they are what humanity will look towards 87 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,520 to solve all of our problems. 88 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,080 And they found companies that can have global impact via the internet. 89 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,560 And so they see themselves as gods. 90 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,880 And what do gods deserve? 91 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,600 Unlimited pleasure and immortality. 92 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,600 That's their goal. 93 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,720 These are the people who heard of the concept of immortality and they were like, that sounds 94 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:04,040 great instead of that sounds exhausting and unnatural and not a thing that humans were 95 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,120 meant to do. 96 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,280 Do I understand the impetus? 97 00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:07,280 I get it. 98 00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:08,280 I get it. 99 00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:11,640 When I was younger and stupid, I also wanted to be immortal. 100 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,840 But now I'm slightly older and still stupid, but I don't want to be immortal. 101 00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:18,480 Mortality leads to appreciation of now. 102 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:19,480 I appreciate you. 103 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,200 Now, appreciation over. 104 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,280 Hunter Biden was found guilty of having guns while being on narcotics. 105 00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:27,600 Now look, I don't give a shit. 106 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,080 I truly don't. 107 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,120 I'm not going to say here and be like, this is a huge scandal and blah, blah, blah, blah. 108 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:34,120 It's a crime. 109 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:35,840 It's kind of a dumb crime, but it's a crime. 110 00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:39,440 The only reason this has gotten really any kind of traction is because the GOP has been 111 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:45,600 pushing super, super hard to try to have some counter situation to go against the crimes, 112 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,720 the many, many, many crimes that Trump did do and was convicted of. 113 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,200 But they're like, see, you can't trust Biden's because crime. 114 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,240 Now vote for Trump. 115 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,240 This is really great for riling up their base. 116 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,840 Their base loves to hate on Hunter Biden, right? 117 00:05:58,840 --> 00:06:02,040 The whole laptop thing and all of it. 118 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,040 But this is just like a GOP strategy, right? 119 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,440 Like, yes, Hunter Biden was found guilty. 120 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:11,920 I don't care about that, but it's what they're going to try to push as their strategy. 121 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:17,560 The GOP is spending so much money when they could just be like, yo, old Joe is a drip. 122 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:18,560 Could you imagine? 123 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:25,160 Can you imagine how spicy GOP attack ads could be if they just hired a leftist? 124 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:31,360 You are wasting your money, the GOP, on ads that don't matter because they're not crafted 125 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,000 by the people who hate the Democrats the most. 126 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:39,520 So while I have you here, the GOP, while you're still listening to my advice, hey, fuck off. 127 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,600 Dissolve your organization and repent. 128 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,000 You have been the cause of increased suffering in the country that I grew up in for my entire 129 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,000 life. 130 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,360 So, hey, fuck you. 131 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:50,360 Gaming. 132 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,080 A studio with developers from Baldur's Gate 3 and Gone Home are putting together a city 133 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:59,440 builder that is less focused on resource extraction and more focused on resource balance, sort 134 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,360 of like an anti-colonial city builder. 135 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,600 Ubisoft had their big announcement event. 136 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,360 Forward is what theirs is called. 137 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,960 Everyone's got a name for it. 138 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,360 It's Ubisoft games are coming out. 139 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:13,360 Ubisoft? 140 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:14,360 Ubisoft. 141 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,360 Ubihard. 142 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,680 Anyway, you know what the games are. 143 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,280 It's Assassin's Creed again and all the other ones again. 144 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,440 Valve is being sued in the UK for 650 million. 145 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,520 Great British pound-os. 146 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:29,520 The pound-o-rinos. 147 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:34,240 According to the lawsuit, Valve has been using their market dominance to essentially overcharge 148 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,640 UK customers for many years. 149 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:41,920 This has to do more with the way that pricing works on Steam than like Valve being actively 150 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:47,120 malicious necessarily, but still, they have massive market dominance and that shouldn't 151 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,120 be a thing. 152 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:53,000 Jackbox Games is finally releasing a unified launcher for all of their games so that you 153 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:58,160 don't have to like guess which game is in which pack and then no one wants to play anymore 154 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,720 because you've just been fiddling with launching and closing programs for the past 20 minutes 155 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,240 at the party that you were trying to have fun at and now everyone's like why is this 156 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,440 weird nerd trying to have us play TV games? 157 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,120 And it's only going to be on Steam, huh? 158 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,400 Sony is adding more native Discord support to the PS5 so where you could previously start 159 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,280 a Discord call on your phone and transfer it to the PS5, you'll now be able to access 160 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:23,160 all of your voice chats and text chats directly through the PS5 UI on Discord. 161 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:24,160 Neat. 162 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,160 Lightning round. 163 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,680 Apple were injured when unexploded ordinance from World War II that was stashed in like 164 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,880 a military academy basement, it blew up. 165 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,760 They were putting something in a box. 166 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:41,480 Arizona released Rudy Giuliani mug shots associated with his fake electors scheme stuff from 2020. 167 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:42,600 That's very good. 168 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:47,200 Apple had a bunch of announcements from WWDC, their yearly big developers conference. 169 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,680 iOS 18 is going to support RCS so you'll be able to like do rich communication with 170 00:08:51,680 --> 00:08:54,160 Android people and a bunch of other features. 171 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,320 The boy Howdy did they play down the RCS support. 172 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,100 There are some genuinely really cool additions that they've announced but it's also their 173 00:09:01,100 --> 00:09:05,320 turn to do all the AI stuff and so they're baking a whole bunch of AI stuff directly 174 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,480 into their operating system. 175 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaking of baking AI into your operating system, Microsoft tried to do that and is 176 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:11,880 already backtracking. 177 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:17,360 They are already delaying the release of their recall system after massive backlash because 178 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,040 obviously. 179 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:25,280 Former and seemingly WWE wannabe villain John Fetterman caused a high speed car crash recently. 180 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,160 According to staffers, he's known for being a distracted driver, driving too fast, being 181 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,840 on video calls while driving and like reading articles and stuff while driving. 182 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,840 And then he crashed. 183 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,600 This dude ran on a massively progressive platform and duped a whole bunch of people into voting 184 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,800 for him then turned around and said fuck you progressives. 185 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:42,800 I'm not progressive. 186 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,880 Elon has decreed that people can no longer see who liked what on Twitter. 187 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,360 Fakes on Twitter are now private by default. 188 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,800 You used to be able to set them to private on your own before that was an option. 189 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:54,960 Now they're all private. 190 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:59,960 And finally for today, OpenAI who makes chat GPT which is the AI system that powers basically 191 00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:05,760 all of the other AI systems that you likely use every day has added a former NSA director 192 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:06,880 to their board. 193 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,680 This is the company that Apple just announced a partnership with and Microsoft uses for 194 00:10:10,680 --> 00:10:14,040 all their AIs and basically every random AI chatbot. 195 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,760 It's all powered by the same thing. 196 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,800 And that company now has an NSA guy on the board. 197 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:25,400 What if instead of dumping all of the money we've been dumping into AI which causes like 198 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:30,880 untold environmental harm by the way was instead being put into figuring out how we don't have 199 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,480 to rely on fucking cobalt. 200 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:38,000 But I guess it's easier to just keep paying white dudes $50 billion instead. 201 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,880 Thank you so much for listening to today's episode of Stuff Keeps Happening. 202 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:50,000 And to SKH.News for sources, bonus content, and my submersible that you can sign up to 203 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,960 go on an underwater trip to go see Atlantis. 204 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:54,960 My name is Endeavorance. 205 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,360 I'll be back on Monday. 206 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:12,440 Take care and be well.
