Actually, Elmo didn't found Tesla.
Didn’t he in fact sue the actual founders to be allowed to be called a founder?
I thought he paid extra to be able to tell that lie.
I believe the lawsuit was settled. I don’t really remember the details, but sounds super-Musky that that would be part of the terms of the settlement.
I replace your reality with my own, using the legal system.

Given his history, if he had to sue someone to be able to use a title, it's probably not a legitimate title.

I asked grok and it said he did. It also said earth was cylindrical.
Are you sure you spoke to grok? Did it mention white genocide or mechahitler?
My university textbooks said he did. I was dumfounded when I saw that.
Hopefully they didn't charge you absurd prices for those shitty books, but i already know they did
also how could steve jobs be visionary if he needed glasses

Elon musk didn't found tesla. He's also an idiot nepo baby, not a visionary.
Elon to my knowledge hasn't been the founder of a single project he's been part of. He's bought everything.

Elon is not the founder of Tesla. He sued the actual founders to bury that fact.
much like many of his other "projects", he's not the founder. He bought it with his inheritance, then trashed the product.

Gives musk too much credit
Way too much. FAR from founder, fucking Nepo baby that acts like we're all shitty because we weren't born with a silver butt plug.
Pretty sure it was a blood-diamond butt plug.

Musk bought it not founded it. There needs to be a whole nother column
Pretty sure Elmo isn't one of the founders of Tesla. And calling him a visionary is pushing it.

I don't think Linus Thorvalds is either very stylish or really an asshole. He might be a bit short fused, but not an asshole.
Eh, he'd probably agree that he is a bit of an asshole.
He’s definitely a bit of an asshole. I appreciate his propensity to talk shit to people, I enjoy that myself, but he equates intelligence with technical skill and tells people they just need a thicker skin if they don’t like his abuse.

I would have figured the three Linuses would have been like:
-
Enthusiastic loud mouthed young Linus arguing with Tannenbaum.
-
Aggressive Linus with no filter at all slapping maintainers upside the head.
-
Aggressive Elder Linus with a personal insult filter applied still slapping maintainers upside the head.

You may not like it, but this is what the peak full stack dev looks like.
Replace "Visionary" with "Infamous" and musk photo with that one goth photo that he was trying to hide.

Lost Stallman...
To be fair, none of this would have happened without Stallman, and I understand the criticism. But let's remember, there are things that he did that were very positive for computing. If it weren't for Stallman it is doubtful that we would have a free operating system to this day.

RMS is the Woz of the Linux world.
You all don’t know what you’re talking about. Elon absolutely is a visionary. Who else could come up with the new Tesla Roadster with rocket thruster package (source)? Now, actually brining that vision to market, yeah Elon might not be your guy. Now that I think about it, his visions are more like delusions. Maybe let’s call him a delusionary.
Also gonna put this here if you would like to read more of his delusions. https://elonmusk.today/
