It's weird how Elon is crashing out so hard. I would have thought he'd just be eating up the negativity, as he clearly wants attention.

Also check out his other video on his Connextras channel where he basically suggests dismantling capitalism.

What is religion? Philosophy

I wish people just saw religion as a metaphor, but they really do believe there is a god and act accordingly even though there is no evidence of any gods existing.

This isn't very old lol. That computer could be from 2010 and CD's and Sharpies were used then. Also, LimeWire was functional until like late 2010.

standard Google keyboard on my Pixel, nothing fancy

The issue is that I am using something fancy.

Well there is no em dash or en dash key on the mobile keyboard. And there isn't a ... key either.

Understand and operate any arbitrary interface without having to have it explained to me by rote

Omg, this all the way. I'm in a class for learning AWS stuff and its crazy the amount of people who suddenly can't do anything when one button is on a different screen than the instructions told them it was. Like come on, use some basic thinking skills.

Another infuriating situation was having to do a class on Microsoft Office. It was infuriating because it was incredibly basic stuff. I've never used Outlook before, but I completed each task they asked of me in like 5 seconds because I have a basic understanding of how software works.

Remember a fairly broad swath of special character altcodes

I use the compose key. When you message with me, you are sure to receive proper dashes and real ellipsis.

Well, unless I happen to be using my phone or another computer at the time.

I made her network two computers

How did she do it? Just plug a crossover cable into both of them?

This is what the editor should have sent in the signal chat after the ordeal.

They all look like pencils to me.

 
 

Mine is mapping. I am a big OpenStreetMap contributor and I have mapped many towns near me that were previously completely unmapped.
