      Elon really is the king of dumb guys that peaked in high school.

        The only problem with this analysis is that, from what I remember, everyone in his highschool hated him.

        So, more like “what a perennial loser thinks someone who peaked in Highschool would be like” which is even sadder.

          It might have been a very low peak, but it was still his peak.

          Seriously though, love the last point…bang on.

                Okay. Barrow Wight hit things well and it helps I’m a huge Tolkien geek, but when crust gets too far down that metal road I start to lose interest. I’ll check em out but I do know Barrow Wight is succeeding at something I’m normally not into. My taste in stenchcore is refined and snobby as hell.

                  Yeah, i think you’ll probably like BHD more than youd guess going into it, but you might not be as enthusiastic as BW. I like a little more metal in my crust, the Prophecy of Doom LP is something that’s created an itch that nothing else I’ve heard has seemed to scratch. I don’t even like death metal that much, but the older, slower style blended with punk they do hits it for me. Can’t get into neocrust myself, so I get what you’re saying with having specific taste.

    Lol, the reason he specifies a tommy gun is because it’s .45 caliber, and standard 45 ammo is subsonic by default. It will literally only stop that, a standard 9mm will go right through. And knowing the cybertruck, I wouldn’t be surprised if they just shot it with a 45 handgun and decided “yup, it stops .45” and never actually tested it out of a longer barrel.

    This is not fiction.

    The surest mark of the bullshitter

      That stood out to me too…most guns and ammunition are NOT subsonic because bullets traveling faster than the speed of sound is what makes them effective. Like okay neat your truck can stop a BB gun. But you won’t even hear the shot when an M2010 round goes through your door and out the other side.

      You joke, but the cybertruck has the same “I fucking love science” techbro vibes as the delorian, the only car to have ever been used for time travel.

      I imagine the fumes from a lithium fire could cause one to hallucinate that they’re traveling through time in the inevitable event the truck spontaneously combusts.

          It was also a commercial flop, that doomed the company that created it to bankruptcy.

      You can probably also identify them reliably even without the license plate just by looking at the discoloration and corrosion patterns on the panels.

      So it would be perfect, apart from the fact that it’s not perfect.

    Also, I’m pretty sure it’s not even resistant to subsonic projectiles

    Couple of CyberTruck bros shot up their trucks to prove it and ended up ruining them

      I can’t figure out why people are being so dense about it. The sheets used for the door on the production vehicles are 14ga (1.8mm thick) 301 stainless steel. Some of the original prototypes used 3mm thick, which would approach some level of effectiveness against handgun ammo. But because that just makes the whole truck heavy as fuck for no reason, they did the obvious thing, which was to just use thinner, non-bullet-proof steel.

      I assumed it definitely isn’t. Not because I’ve seen those videos, but it’s just safe to assume my-hero is full of shit.

      80% of those videos look like the guy has never fired a gun in his life and is a little scared of it
      Which normally would be whatever, who cares, but these are people who jack themselves off over the 2nd ammendment

    The kinds of people who are into this shit are the same kinds of people who live in the quietest suburb you can think of, keep a loaded gun on their bedside table, and tell everyone that will listen about how safe they are because they do it and how stupid you are for not doing it.
