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
Bruh you better watch out or I’m gonna delete your IP address
-bash: woke_mind_virus: command not found

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.
🤔, 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.
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.
did he just delete his brain via neuralink?
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/neuralink bs=5G
can’t delete what you don’t have
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
did 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.
good god he wrote two lines and they’re both dumb as fuck
Elon is not an engineer. Don’t believe his lies.
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. 🙄
Waddaya mean we can’t just arbitrarily delete stuff of a public server once we know its ip address? It’s not fair! 😡
You’d expect musk of all people to know you need to spend 45 billion to buy the server first.
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 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.

Reminds me of this classic https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/hack-127001
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
