Count the number of "former" intelligence officials on his company's board.

Then search for the many photos of him mouth-kissing his father and son (RIP).

They use both carrots and sticks to control compromised people.

I took mine apart and there were two separate display modules for the 4K screen with ribbon cables I didn't recognize so I just put it back together and stuck in an HDMI streaming stick flashed to LineageOS.

I got one around 2008. They were the best of the non-premium 1080p HDMI screens at the time.

The one I got had slightly better test review scores on display quality than the LG that year. The Sony was 20% better for 3x the price.

It lasted about twelve years and by then a bigger 4K with much brighter colors was half the cost in nominal dollars, so probably 1/4 the cost in real terms.

And by then cheap flashable streaming sticks were available as was pihole and fairly easy outbound NAT rewriting rules to keep the beasts contained.

The only human being Elon Musk cares about is himself. He is a profound narcissist.

THEY'RE STILL WORKING ON REACTOS?!

Next you'll tell me Haiku is still an option.

"If people start flocking to Linux"

Will this be the year of Linux on the desktop?!?

Slow down, sometimes it takes a few years, or 32 years in this case, to get something right.

Stand down soldier. It's not an attack on your precious Lord Musk, but simply a rhetorical technique to convey the cost in relatable terms, e.g. to emphasize that these missiles are within the means of affluent consumers. Reporters do this all the time, and yes, many such measurement analogies are arbitrary and silly.

Well nothing we think of as "critical infrastructure" is using consumer routers - and if it were that could and should be remedied quickly without a ban on consumer routers.

So ... this leaves us with an open question for this to make legal sense.

The best fit is probably an Internet Drivers License and mandatory packet signing for a surveillance control grid and CBDC coming down the pike rapidly.

When in the course of Human Events....

Yeah, not sure if you remember the Vegan Crossfit Pythonistas.

Instead of saying, "we could write a program to..." they would dogmatically intone, "we could write a Python script to..." in almost every situation.

Not sure who taught them the NLP but their dedication was a fervor.

A whole lot of rewriting of fast, debugged, working code got rewritten by them just because Perl, Ruby, and Bash felt like heresy.. For a while python stacktraces were the error message of common use on Fedora.

Do you mean like he could have added air conditioning?

Now that we know that Meta lobbied for all of these simultaneous "age verification" laws he's losing what little support he still had.

Have you seen that interview where he just has a bottle of barbecue sauce on his bookshelf?

To make him "relatable" they say?

There's a decades old cartoon that asks, "how would you like your tyranny wrapped, in 'stopping terrorism' or 'protecting the children'?

2025 edit: 'stopping antisemitism' as that's all DoJCRD seems to know about.

Waymo or Tesla? Waymo is so far ahead of Tesla that how can even the most gullible investor think they are every going to catch up?

Since LLM's are a statistical completion engine, how are they supposed to statistically analyze code for a language that nothing is written in? The only reason that they can do what they do is because humans feed them with solid information. When fed poor quality info, you get Grok. The article's author seems to have a fundamental misunderstanding of how this stuff works.
