Don't do that. Don't get my hopes up.

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 29 points 7 months ago

Why not? Everyone else has been doing that to me for decades.

[–] RegalPotoo@lemmy.world 245 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Don't forget that he also didn't found Tesla

[–] Igloojoe@lemm.ee 128 points 7 months ago (8 children)

Correct! He sued his way into being called a founder.

I cant say I know what this shithead has contributed to society if anything but a place for toXicity to grow.

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 24 points 7 months ago

Apparently the ghost of Elon doesn’t like this, telling from the downvotes

The absolute beauty of this: readers adding context without denying the actual content of the message. Glorious.

[–] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 17 points 7 months ago (4 children)

Remember in grammar school when your teacher told you that Wikipedia is not a valid source? I'm sure they're saying the same thing about AI right now.

[–] uzay@infosec.pub 33 points 7 months ago (4 children)

The difference being that on wikipedia you could use the sources on there while AI makes those up as well

how dare you give me false hope

[–] Conyak@lemmy.tf 20 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (6 children)

I would prefer to read that he lost all of his money and is now homeless. I’m not a fan of wishing even the worst people dead.

He is also not the founder of Tesla. Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning are.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.ca 18 points 7 months ago

I saw a presentation from one of them about the founding of Tesla, impressive stuff. Elon just takes their talking points, that's why he can't deviate far from a couple points.

Can we please rebrand 'X' as 'The website formerly known as twitter'?

Also, best post here in a while

Also, don't get my hopes up -.-

edit: so no prince fans here then ^^"

[–] reverendsteveii@lemm.ee 18 points 7 months ago (4 children)

If musk won't recognize his child's new chosen name, I won't recognize twitter's new branding

He’s also not a founder of Tesla 🤷‍♂️

[–] frezik@midwest.social 11 points 7 months ago (3 children)

For that matter, he's also not a founder of SpaceX, and even calling him co-founder of PayPal has a lot of clarifications around it. If PayPal had gone ahead the way Musk had wanted, it could easily have sunk the company into another joke of the excess of the dot-com boom of the 90s.

I'm sure there's a deadman's switch on all the Teslas, Neuralinks and SpaceX/Starlink so we'd all know for sure he was dead.

If we live that long.

[–] taanegl@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

They all just stop, let out a digital shriek, as all the LED's turn blood red...

Prepare for the wreckoning...

[–] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 31 points 7 months ago (1 children)

To think I found out about it this way - in a shitposting community that regularly posts absurd lies.

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@iusearchlinux.fyi 36 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (8 children)

Wait i thought that was only a shit post... I gotta google something real quick

Edit: google (or rather brave search) says hes not dead

[–] WeirdAlex03@lemmy.zip 26 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Wikipedia hasn't been updated, confirmed definitely not dead

[–] xenoclast@lemmy.world 26 points 7 months ago (4 children)

I'm pretty sure wikipedia knows before the person who died

When I become billionaire I also want to buy a company and become its founder. Wait, that's not how it works

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago

He certainly founded its downfall

For a moment I was very happy.
