For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

The question is, how do you not know the age of a recipient? I feel like that's kinda required to know, no?

1875 has never been an epoch anywhere, on any system. 1970 has. 1900 has. 0000 has. But 1875? No, it hasn't. And no where in the cobol spec does 1875 appear.

This is just propaganda. He already does enough wrong, you guys lying about it just makes everything else you say suspect.

"You guys are wrong about the epoch in COBOL and it's really making me believe this ketamine fueled Nazi, shame on you" lol you're ridiculous

Why not focus on the Nazi bit? Instead of lying about the 1875 bit? Are you lying about him being a Nazi?

The response is wrong. I remember reading an article that disproved it and explained the actual reason. However I forgot the actual reason.
