    To me, the whole thing with “woke” being used as a dedicatory 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

    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.

    🤔, 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.

    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.

    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.

          Going of memories:

          Didn’t he write a codebase that was so bad, that paypal throw it out when they realized what they had bought.
          Also did he finish his physics bachelor?
