ChatGPT: what is known about Elon Musk’s Ketamine consumption?
Could it lead to him going irrational irratic and basically going crazy?
- What’s been reported: The New York Times and other outlets reported Musk used ketamine frequently (allegedly as often as daily during 2024), plus other substances; Musk has denied ongoing use and said he tried prescription ketamine intermittently.
- Can ketamine make someone “irrational” or “go crazy”?
- Acute effects: at recreational or high doses ketamine can cause dissociation, hallucinations, confusion, impaired judgment and unusual behavior—these can look like irrational or erratic actions. CBS News
- Repeated/heavy use risks: chronic ketamine misuse is linked to bladder damage, cognitive/memory problems, mood changes, and sometimes persistent perceptual or psychiatric symptoms; severity depends on dose, frequency, route and individual factors.
- Medical, supervised use (low, controlled doses) for depression has different risk/benefit considerations than unsupervised recreational use. CBS News
Conclusion: Reported claims about Musk’s ketamine use come from media accounts and he disputes them; ketamine can cause acute dissociation and, with heavy/repeated use, health and cognitive harms that could contribute to erratic behavior—but whether that applies to any specific person (including Musk) can’t be determined from public reports
pros:
- took big risks to push mankind forward in terms of (CO2 neutral) electric mobility
- yes the team at Tesla made outstanding efficient eCars AND batteries (although struggling with GEN3 DRY CELL while CATL seems to overtake everyone in the battery space) not a lot of car companies make their own batteries FROM SCRATCH
- the only one who managed to inspire talented people to build the BIGGEST RESUSABLE SPACE SHIP EVER
cons:
- megalomania seldom ends well
- whoever thinks he is a genius, most certainly is not
- ketamine because of depressions (?) can cause HALLUZINATIONS which might at least partly lead to IRRATIONAL decisions
- did u know that OTHER MEGALOMANIC LEADERS MADE SO IRRATIONAL DECISIONS THAT HIS ENEMIES ACTUALLY WANTED THEM TO STAY IN POWER X-D
- this spells DOOM for the US
- since Musk took over twitter and renamed it x (probably the worst decision in his career) the content quality has gone down the SINK
- speaking of going down the drain: “free speech” contrary to Musk’s story telling is not given:
- tor usage is now possible AGAIN
- but x.com wants the user’s phone number
- PLUS enter a mail send login code for EVERY login #wtf
- tweet (please rename it AGAIN! X-D) too much stuff they don’t like users will lose the right to comment FOREVER
- = cencorship is VERY real on x.com
- tor usage is now possible AGAIN
- Videos with ogg audio are STILL not supported
- and SCAMMERS are still at large?
-
WARNING THIS VIDEO IS A SCAM THAT POPPED UP 5x TIMES IN ONE DAY (THIS USER STOPPED USING X) ALSO: WHAT HAPPENED TO OGG VORBIS AUDIO SUPPORT FOR mp4 FILES IN FIREFOX???
- while on it: this is a mp4 264x with mp3 audio: (works in Firefox 135.0.1 (64-bit))
- this is the same video with ogg vorbis audio (this used to work on Firefox… but not anymore? (no audio) wtf why?)
-
possible solutions?
solutions would be:
- a 100% Open Source social network software that is
- [+] decentralized, anyone should be able to have it setup in 5min (server AND client)
- [+] while also fast and responsive
- means: written in a 100% Open Source or FREE licenced language that offers decent performance like Rust
- [+] that has the features and GUI of instagram
- [+] “AI (or user based) fact checking” of EVERY SINGLE POST and PICTURE and movie
- [+] thinks of a smart yet anonymous verification process, that the user is truly a unique user and not a bot net
- [+] allows users to use tor
- after YEARS x.com is finally again available via tor but x.com wants the users phone number so it’s not anonymous at all
- and x.com can not be trusted to keep user data safe
possible but also not perfect alternatives:
- Mastodon
- https://joinmastodon.org/servers
- a very good one: https://infosec.exchange/explore
- [+] Open source
- [ ] written largely in Ruby… not the fastest but well? (if admins throw enough hardware at it?)
- [+] decentralized (server nodes sync between each other?)
- [+] following #topics and #hashtags in posts are possible
- [+] more or less intuitive design
- [-] following users on other servers is too complicated X-D
- not all mastodon servers are friends of tor 🙁
- [+] their news blog ACTUALLY has an rss feed NOICE! (if the user likes news, highly recommend, unfortunately too much news is depressing in a failing (financial) system)
- support em Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/infosecexchange
- https://joinmastodon.org/servers
- Lemmy
- https://bsky.app/
- read “BlueSky” (imho THIS IS TOO MUCH APPREVIATION X-D even for a GERMAN! that appreviate EVERYTHING until no one knows what it means X-D)
- Diaspora
- catastrophically slow hence the user limits for pods #wtf
- https://pixelfed.org/
- [+] open source instagram clone
- [-] registration process not privacy friendly
- [ ] in 2025-02 seems to be a bit of a mess
- [ ] written in PHP
- not the fastest lang but still faster than python ;-p
PS: STILL got to write that the sell of github.com to M$ was the greatest betrayal of open source in the history of mankind
- on the one site it’s good, just upload whatever helpful ebooks 😀
- on the other side M$ can now monitor A LOT what’s going on in the open source world and when they don’t like what they see…
