    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_virus and 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 Elon

      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.

      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!

    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

    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.

    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 -rf works 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. 🙄

        No, this is the rich, entitled asshole who wants to severely underpay brilliant scientific minds to take humanity to Mars.

    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

          Funnily enough he doesn’t even have a physics degree. He has been wrongly claiming that forever, and one joke is that’s one reason he bought Twitter, because the guys there wouldn’t shut up about that

            That’s why the plural is in parenthesis.

            He bought Twitter because he had to. He made a legally binding offer to purchase it at a soecific price per share as a joke and then was forced to follow through because Jack Dorsey et al did not take it as a joke.

            Elon’s forced purchase of Twitter is proof how dumb he can be.
