woke_mind_virus deleted rm -rf... wow this guy sure knows his UNIX!

[–] [email protected] 69 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Always a good idea to delete a binutil right?

[–] [email protected] 33 points 21 hours ago

No see, he's saying the woke_mind_virus is protecting him! He can no longer accidentally run the rm command and erase his entire mind. It's 4d cheese or whatever to tell the woke they are actually correct and this right wing posturing is a plot /s

Somehow he managed to add a new hostname to /etc/hosts, but then tries to undo it by rm'ing the hostname?

sudo rm -fr - -no-preserve-root

The magic spell that removes the woke mind virus, but only if used on the main twitter server as a high level admin user with full access.

Just tell everyone it's to delete the french language pack.

Anyone else besides me want a moratorium on musk spam? No one should have to see anything he tweets.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 18 hours ago

I don't even have X, but everywhere I go there's an Elon's tweet

[–] [email protected] 4 points 14 hours ago

Monetize this spam with $8 donations please.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 20 hours ago

Well, maybe not a moratorium, but I certainly would appreciate some peace and quiet.

He's trying to say "I'm attention seeking, look at me!".

So he isn't even a techy, the whole thing has been an act

[–] [email protected] 87 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

after he bought twitter and made a big thing about auditing their code, there was a post going around that was something like

first he talked about cars, and i know nothing about cars but people said he was a genius so i believed it
then he talked about rockets, and i know nothing about rockets but people said he was a genius so i believed it
now he's talking about computers, and i know a lot about computers, and he's saying some of the most batshit insane things i've ever heard, so i'm starting to reevaluate my earlier choices...

I think his school teachers, diagnosing him as retarded, were spot on.

This is like someone who doesn’t speak English, finds a dictionary, and then puts random words together hoping to sound like they speak English.

He is such a fucking moron.

He saying he used to be woke?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

I mean, there was a period about 15 years ago when he seemed to be the only rich person actually talking about climate change, doing something that might make some difference (investing in an electric vehicle startup, and later a rooftop solar startup) and seemed to actually be concerned about it. I now question if that was just an act or not.

On the other hand there is the theory that he fell down the right wing social media pipeline during the pandemic and that's why he's seemed to have such a sudden shift on political party affiliation. I like that theory because I think it's kinda funny to imagine one of the richest men in the world being too cooped up and spending too long doomscrolling to the point that he became radicalized by social media algorithms

He should have asked some genAI to write this 😐

[–] [email protected] 6 points 16 hours ago

He's saying what everyone else already knows. He's infected and diseased

[–] [email protected] 16 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Jokes on him. I'm a carrier of the Woke Mind Virus and there's nothing he can do about it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 17 hours ago

Nuh uh he’s gonna write a gui using Visual Basic to hack your IP address

[–] [email protected] 12 points 20 hours ago

He is just person born in rich family that used social media to create image of some kind of engineering genius, when his actual "skill" was to have money, push engineers to work hard and knowing how to get money from the government.
