Years ago, I worked at Wal-Mart. There was a TV on an AV cart in a backroom that was meant to show training videos. There was a coax cable that dropped from the ceiling that carried the signal from the satellite system. This connection needed to be adapted to composite for reasons that I don't remember. I got tasked to make this work, so I went to the Goodwill down the street and bought a VCR with company funds to act as an intermediary to adapt the connection.

One of the dumbass managers saw the VCR and was like, "wtf is this doing here?" and disconnected it for no reason other than they didn't know what it did.

Same energy.

I've been through lots of drug/alcohol therapy and I can safely say that Elon Musk would be an immediate pariah and would never make it in that situation.

Even from working lovely retail jobs, I learned that someone coming in as an outside hire to a manager or even supervisor position is usually going to be a disaster. Usually, the problem was arrogance and entitlement that they want to mold things to their ideal while making zero effort to learn the company culture, procedures, or internal politics.

This is on a far grander scale but that seems to actually intensify the effect. Elon bought the whole company for 44 billion and made seemingly no effort to learn how or why anything works. Truly intelligent people ask a lot of questions, listen, and have the ability to filter that information. Giving your employees ultimatums, publicly poo poo posting, making GBS threads on your employees, and demanding that they justify their jobs based on arbitrary metrics is a great way to tank the company fast and I'm actually impressed at how fast he's been able to do that.

Apparently I had a Twitter account from over 10 years ago that I never used. I must have made it when I was blackout drunk. I only noticed because I searched my email and found out that it was hacked like 5 years ago.

Anyway, I took it back just to tell LibsOfTikTok to gently caress off.

I'll never understand the appeal of vehicles that can have software failures for basic things like 'the headlights'. Any other car you could just keep a spare and change it yourself, but for this modern piece of genius, you need to wait for the company to release an update and potentially break something else, like its ability to recognise certain ethnicities of people at pedestrian crossings.

Olds complaining about how "cars these days have too many computers" was precious when they just had engine control units and poo poo. I'll admit it gets pretty dumb when you have to worry about making sure your car can get Wi-Fi updates for mundane poo poo like making sure your lights work properly.
