It's a Unix system! Elon knows this!

thats not how rm -rf works
Not to diminish the fact that that's not how rm works, but that's also not how anything else in his tweet works either.
I only care about the rm part
Yeah that command wouldn't run. Which means Elon still has the woke mind virus.
That's probably why he told everyone to take the red pill. The red pill is estrogen.
...ohhhhhh, so that's how he's going to create those genetically engineered catgirls! He meant epigenetic changes caused by estrogen!
Bruh you better watch out or I'm gonna delete your IP address
It's just another case of Musk trying to sound smart but instead ends up proving that he doesn't even have a basic working understanding on the subject.
I guess this time the only difference is that it doesn't look like he paid an actually competent person to help him with it.
This might be giving him too much credit, but I think what he's trying to say is that he had the
woke_mind_virusand deleted it from his mind? They've all co-opted the term red pill from the Matrix (widely seen as a trans allegory) and are using it to justify their unpopular actions because they're now free of having to be "woke" and can oppress those who are marginalized.Obligatory Fuck Elon:
Fuck thats some good shit. It will never cease to amaze me how every piece of pop culture they touch brings the creators out swinging.
I'm actually shocked Elon hasn't offered to impregnate her. Either it's an oversight, or he HAS and we just don't know about it.
Please do notice that he replied to himself a month after the fact. He was cooking that up for an entire month 😹
Without even realizing that
rm -rfworks on posix filesystems which are not directly exposed at osi layer 3.This is the brilliant scientific mind that wants to take humanity to mars. 🙄
And still couldn't figure out how it works.
What a pathetic loser 😹It just took a month to connect to his own brain.
This is a freshman CS/IT major's attempt at humor. Most of us learn and grow out of it and/or get the memes right, but Elon isn't smart and isn't actually capable of understanding how stupid this looks
I was a huge SpaceX fan from the early days so watched a lot of Musks presentations and interviews and noticed a lot of repetition and always felt he was strongly working from talking points combined with a reasonably good high level understanding of the topic.
He didn't work as well off script and seemed to have stunted emotional development, not unlike a lot of internet age manboys raised on memes, video games and porn. It is difficult to reconcile his behaviour with an adult, father and manager of people and money. I suspect he has some seriously competent peiple around him like Shotwell who cover for his fuck ups.
IMO he probably is the kind of guy who can soak up stuff around him, turn it into a set of talking points and repeat it with the appearance of expertise. I think he may have had some cognitive decline due to age and lifestyle but I think he was a pretty competent bullshit artist in the past.
I am not an expert at anything but like many IT people discovered long ago that I can pick up most things in my general field with a bit of research. It is a dangerous mindset sometimes. There really is the feeling that with some basic undergrad math and comp sci and a weekend of googling you can understand quantum field theory and it's totally delusional of course.
Unfortunately the fake it to you make it culture seems to have won. It doesn't matter how crap you are, if you put yourself out there with confidence you will outcompete the quiet competent types. And when you get caught out there never seem to be consequences.
you put yourself out there with confidence and your parents blood money from emerald mines you will outcompete the quiet competent types.
But yeah. Point taken.
Each of his companies has to have a layer of management that's simply about directing his attention somewhere that won't hurt the company. SpaceX seems to do this best, Tesla is OK to bad, and Xhitter is by far the worst.
New fear unlocked: I fit this description and just don't realize it. Kind of along the lines of imposter syndrome. Am I just bullshitting everyone around me into thinking I'm competent?
Elon is not an engineer. Don't believe his lies.
good god he wrote two lines and they're both dumb as fuck
-bash: woke_mind_virus: command not founddid he just attempt to fix a virus on his system by only deleting the containing folder and being like well that's that
That command would remove everything in the folder, and every subfolder. But yeah pretty dumb.
He can fake gaming kinda-sorta, he can fake admirers kinda-sorta... Why could he kinda-sorta fake programming skills?
He's the ultimate fake
The thing is that this kind of thing works for people who don't know better. I have spoken to dudes who like the abstract notion of Musk being a gamer, probably because it wasn't apparent to them that his Path of Exile account was so obviously boosted. Similarly, a script-kiddie can seem like a skilled programmer to people who have little knowledge of programming
Woke mind found at loopback interface
Wokemind deleted
Now let's traceroute a fucking loopback of something you deleted...
It's not funny, it's not smart but it definitely is Elon.
To me, the whole thing with "woke" being used as a derogatory term is the same as conservatist folk calling XR, Last Generation and other activists "eco-terrorists".
I've watched/played/read things I wouldn't have discovered if there hadn't been masses of people crying "woke" about them; there was a period where it was a really useful recommendation engine, because they'd be especially pissy if high quality stuff was woke. Unfortunately, that doesn't work as well anymore, because "woke" is increasingly meaningless
🤔, I must not have the mind virus then as 127.0.0.1 does not loopback on my machines. Victory? Also I'd just like to point out that while hostnames can contain _ they're not supposed to as it's reserved for special purposes like SRV records.
did he just delete his brain via neuralink?
can't delete what you don't have
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/neuralink bs=5G
Reminds me of this classic https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/hack-127001
Well if its in $PATH he just ran it
God this tweet makes me mad on so many levels. Anyone who has spent any meaningful amount of time in the command line knows this tweet is such bullshit.
EDIT: Further venting of frustrations.
Now if he would just remove the French localization
I think he's saying he deleted wokeness within himself
Fuckin stupid tho
Musky needs to hook up with NextGenHacker101 and get on that tracer-t tip!
Elon you found the Virus in your brain. Now do "rm -rf /"!!!
He asked grok bc he certainly doesn’t know. Fucking clown.
