Are they claiming responsibility for the Utah stainless steel thing?

  Or at the very minimum, for constantly spamming every social and news network they could for the last few weeks about it?

    It has been more irritating and fake than anything

    We all saw that crap apparently so it was a somewhat effective attempt at viral marketing. And now that includes being on the front page of HN. Not sure if we should celebrate that or fix it but it happened.

  Of course. And you can own one for the low price of $45,000.

    For this much I'd expect far better execution. What's good an alien monolith wannabe if it's held together with visible rivets?
    • bayindirh 6y ago
      They're not rivets. They're solid state structural integrity sensors.

        Sorry to burst your bubble, but they're really just self-sealing stem bolts.
        • bayindirh 6y ago
          Oh, really? Now, that's interesting. I thought their application was not that broad. Maybe we shall document it. What do you say?
