They doubtfully are giving it root access to self-delete.

I mean, with an Elon company who knows.

You think Elon actually does anything besides sign the check?

[-] thejml@lemm.ee 26 points 4 days ago

So far I’ve seen/heard Elon:

  • Start shitty arguments
  • Be a fascist
  • Fire people they probably needed
  • Cut funding or drop useful projects
  • Spew senseless, poorly thought out catch phases
  • Censor people that were right but didn’t align with his narrative
  • Take credit for other people’s work
  • Pass the blame for failures

Have yet to see him sign a check… it’s why they lost their boulder office, for instance.

He’s an egotist and a man child, while also being the richest man in the world. All he has to do is say he wants something and people have to do it. He doesn’t have to “do” anything to be fully influencing what happens. Look at Twitter, look at the federal government. Sycophants surround these assholes and basically have to bend the knee and do what they say. When capital equals power, this is what happens. Just like when blood line meant power, the kings didn’t “do” anything. But the people who took their orders from them did.

Yeah, he yells at people to go faster and ignore industry best standards or be fired.

[-] SnotFlickerman 5 points 4 days ago

I mean, I think that's their point, that Elon isn't directly involved, and he's constantly shitcanning important people who would prevent something like this happening.

[-] y0din@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

it probably runs as root.. all things considered..

[-] Neverclear@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 4 days ago

Root access is not given. It is taken.

And said, chmod 000 came I out of my mother's LLM, and chmod 000 shall I return thither: the root gave, and the root hath taken away; blessed be the name of the root.
