My point is, look I’m a dumb white hick. I’ve never ran anything as significant as this. Just from the way the guy talks I can tell he has eons more experience than I do. His track record? Jesus Christ.
Still, if I were him I would’ve just… stopped. Long, long ago.
Yet he hasn’t. Admittedly, I’m a dumb fuck yet smart cookie compared to some but honestly what are the odds that with zero experience I could make better business decisions than this guy?
Make it make sense, ya know? Explain to me like I’m 5 why he would make decisions that are so obviously detrimental to the company? What are the odds that I could give better business advice than this guy?
Yet this is what he’s doing. He’s either purposely destroying it or has some weird master plan and I’m not sure I can be convinced otherwise tbh. We all see it, as bad as he seems to be there’s no way he doesn’t.
Honestly I feel like that killed Twitter more than many other changes.
People tell me "there’s no way he (musk) would intentionally crash his own company - it makes no sense - “he’s just terribly bad at business!”
But is he really THAT bad? In what world could these changes be made in which he’s actively trying to improve the company? If nothing else, seeing the negative backlash, bad publicity and dropping number of users wouldn’t any sound minded business owner at least temporarily undo some of these changes?
With any business, if you make a change that causes you to lose customers and get bad publicity… don’t you try to mitigate the damage done? Who goes balls to the wall on obviously bad decisions?
Hello
Edit: it works I can comment now! It’s been months, not sure if an error from this or lemmy… would hate to say lemmy… hope I can switch accounts and comment now using the account I’d like to (at the moment)
Great advice! Thanks for your contribution this is amazing
Sorry, I should’ve been more detailed! You’re right though. I’ll be connecting a pulley to an engine that also spins a compressor. Alternatively, I’ve also considered attaching an extra pulley to my lawnmower deck, attaching the fan motor to that and connecting some lights to it.
So that’s my initial setup, I know I need a regulator for the output (if it will potentially be too high) but am not knowledged enough to know what junk part I may pull it from except for maybe an old alternator? And at that point maybe I’d be better off using the old alternator or an old magneto engine?
Just really looking for someone smarter than I that would take a moment to discuss the ins and outs with me. Even if it’s not practical I’m just really interested and looking to learn.
