Ah, yes! The yellow animal strawman! Do you people have some playbook or something? Look for something new. This one has become a cliché.
BTW, it's not racist to insult an evil man or regime. But like any true evil regime, you spin that as an attack on an entire race. Nobody other than you even mentioned the Chinese people. It's like those evil gangs that use commoners as shield. It's just pathetic.
Somebody compares your dear supreme dictator to a cartoon bear. You: "You are racist against all Chinese".
Even after others clarify that it's against one person, you have your ears plugged and crying racism. You know what it sounds like? A scripted act to pretend that you're morally right. In fact, I have seen this so many times. It's from your masters' propaganda playbook, isn't it?
Wow! The amount of dishonesty in your words is staggering. Nobody pretended that it was against one person - they mentioned only one person. You're the one who twisted their words and pretended that it's against an entire race. In fact, you are the only one who mentioned the Chinese race here.
And the racist tirade against Africans. They didn't say that - you did. You made a racist insult in order to argue that others are racist. To be honest, no one else here is anywhere close to a racist as you are.
And please stop hiding behind ridiculous accusations of racism. It's an extremely common and cheap tactic employed by autocrats to misdirect.
You people go around calling others NSA, CIA and what not. But from my perspective, all your counter arguments are similar, consistent and repetitive. I have seen the same in other communities as well. At this point, you might as well concede that you're running a CCP propaganda campaign on the lemmyverse, instead of trying to discredit others.
It's definitely the second - paid. Look how new people are turning up with long posts supposedly debunking 'western propaganda', supported by suspicious external sources. Also not how a pro- China post here is upvoted by multiple people as soon as it's posted. All these could be one person. Even so, why go through so much trouble supporting a person others consider as a dictator?
Yeah. Considering how hard it is to cook up news sources that support your propaganda. There is not one reputable source in your references. And you start celebrating!
Tesla: FSD, Cybertruck, Semi, Optimus and the spandex dancing man, solar shingles, solar farm, thermonuclear explosion proof glass, bullet proof chassis, battery-swap, range under full charge, share value, etc
Boring Company: Hyperloop, Not a flamethrower, Vegas loop, pods, tunnel bricks, etc
SpaceX: Martian colony, surface to surface starship, in-orbit refueling (to get to moon), in-situ methane production on Mars, etc
Neuralink: Telepathy, Brain backup
Twitter: Free speech
Musk himself: His net worth, The man who knows more about manufacturing than anyone else alive
Though you may be right, I have a feeling that he is facing formidable opposition. That may include anything from social engineering to full on psyops.
Your second point is especially interesting, considering the recent xz backdoor. The bad actors manipulated a poor burnt out maintainer for it. In comparison, I'm impressed with gorhill for his perseverance and mental strength. I would like to know how he avoids burn out with such negative influences.
A trillion dollar company demanding 30% cut of revenue of small developers, on top of annual developer fees and exorbitantly priced hardware with zero reparability and severe environmental impact isn't monetarily expensive enough for you? That isn't loyalty. It's stupid fanaticism that harms everyone else. And I don't want to even start about the petty part.
Printers are the text book examples of why device manufacturing shouldn't be left to big companies. You have tracking dots, spyware infestation, subscription for ink/toners, reporting of the cartridge as empty when you still have much left in it, refusal to print when unused color cartridges are empty, intentional bricking if 3rd party cartridges or ink is used, and utterly crappy firmware in general.
Inkjets require precision manufacturing. But assembling it or other types from components should be possible - like how desktops, mechanical keyboards, etc can be. We really need to ditch filthy mass market printers because DIY printers will be much better than anything they offer.

I stumbled over this today. Apparently it was inspired by listening to his most recent analyst earnings call.
