Enough Musk Spam

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

This reminds me of people that said 5G causes Covid

My friend disabled the 5 GHz WiFi radio on his access point and labeled the 2.4 GHz radio as "Fuck 5G" for a while. For those not aware the 5G that these idiots are talking about is The 5th Generation of Cellphone Technology which is completely different from the 5 GHz radio in WiFi access points.

I'm impressed someone that knows how to disable the 5 GHz wifi and yet doesn't know it's not the same as 5G

computers don't have drivers

The 15-year IT guy at my old job who got me fired cuz he was scared I'd replace him cuz I knew shit like computers needing drivers and how GPUs work (he asked ME for advise ffs)

My router has a simple button right on the main admin page. They've really gotten pretty easy to use for the basics.

She could use some crystal healing and essential oils.

The only way to truly be safe is to put your router in a Faraday cage.
