The memes about him have been a lot less derisive, and recently they are semi-positive towards him/meta, people were reasonable in the response to his green screen grilling video and there are jokes about them changing the Threads logo high up on lemmy, etc. And he registered an X logo as trademark to potentially counter Musk.
But honestly we might never know. I doubt they went to work for someone as self-destructive as Musk.
There are multiple stories like that from several people.
Apparently there were people at Tesla who were effectively employed to get fired when he was in one of his moods.
And if you read enough of the stories it all comes down to basically a single PA who kept him away from important things. And that person stopped working for him shortly before the public realized what an asshole he is.
And after learning that, I can't stop wondering who they work for now... And I want to see a show based on their biography.
Eugenics remained alive and well in federal governement efforts until the late 70s. They just didn't/don't talk about it because of how the US supported Germany with that leading up to WW2. The Rockefeller Foundation funded eugenics research that employed Josef Mengele, and US literature was literally being used as templates for early Nazi cleansing programs.
The 1978 Federal Sterilization Regulations, created by the United States Department of Health, Education and Welfare or HEW, (now the United States Department of Health and Human Services) outline a variety of prohibited sterilization practices that were often used previously to coerce or force women into sterilization.
They try to present it as "detecting abuse", but it's literally just "allow servers to block non-verified browers"(in other words google blocking access to their services for non-chrome users(the people proposing it work for google)).
And as always these types of asshats always shit all over anyone using accessbility tools(or don't even consider them in the first place, which amounts to the same thing).
It's the classic of asking people who make unironically sexist jokes to explain what exactly makes it funny.
They tend to either shut up in embarrassment or start talking about how you just don't "get" the humor and try to move on. Because they know they can't explain it without looking like an asshole.
It's not, but Meta has already registered an "X" logo in connection to "online social networking services" and "social networking services in the fields of entertainment, gaming, and application development."
And fun fact: The logo Musk presented is the "Mathematical Double-Struck Capital X" unicode character(𝕏 (U+1D54F)). It looks like the DejaVu Sans font. Which is free to use for everyone, so he can't actually prevent other people from putting it on merch and selling it.
That's the thing, his ego is super fragile, but his narcissism isn't.
According to some people who has worked with him, he's literally the type of person that comes into work some days and and he just has to fire someone no matter what and for literally no other reason than to make himself feel powerful.
He literally will try to sue once someone tells him about it(because he is a "programmer" that basically doesn't know what linux is and thinks open source means he can take it).
They are very good, but there are also a bunch of different models that are very similar but are not the same. So you might want to do some reaseach on what your needs are and thus which type of fans you need.
This ranges from ones that have different speeds and different noise levels, all the way to fans that are designed for airflow(ex: normal case fans) and ones that are designed for air pressure(ex: blowing through a radiator). And they can be noticably different if used for the wrong thing.
Also check which fans are making the most noise. For example the case fans might mostly be fine and swapping the CPU cooling fan(s) could fix it.
Although it's important to note that GPU fan will pretty much always be loud under load unless you go water cooled. And even then you'll hear it when things heat up.
Musk bought himself into Confinity(Peter Thiel and others company), made himself CEO and started making insane demands to the point where Peter Thiel quit and the board forced Musk out as CEO and replaced him with Thiel. (Musk wanted Thiel to rewrite his entire program from unix to windows, and the board knew that without him PayPal would never get off the ground.)
He did the same thing with Tesla(and other companies), bought his way into CEO and started making demands. But at that time he had a PA that kept his insane demands away from the crucial engineers and people working on important tasks. It's the same PA that stopped working for him a few months before his public reputation went to shit.
It's also cases of no one alive knows/remember how it works, there is no documentation and they don't want to pay millions and shut entire sites and operations down to reverse engineer it. Specially with the military.
The US military has a wide range of generals, all the way from people who can barely stop themselves from dribbling while staring at a wall for hours as entertainment, to actual competent ones.
At least this guy is just a moron, some of them are very dangerous. For example US Army General Wesley Clark, who ordered someone to basically start WW3, which didn't go through because several officers refused to listen to him. Then he ran for president as a democrat, withdres. He later started a consulting firm and now runs a "boutique investment bank".
They did, and decided to blame it all on those "darn liberal city slickers with their fancy book learning".
Source: Right now they're literally blaming books for their problems, and are banning and burning them.
Conservatives all blame someone or something else for their problems, and even dismiss them exisiting until it happens to themselves or someone close to them.
I'm guessing a lot of the NSFW subs saw this as the final straw and just went to nsfw lemmy instead. Since they seem to be pravalent in all the "we need mods" posts.
