Hours after Apple announced a partnership with OpenAI, Tesla CEO Elon Musk threatened to ban its devices from his companies.

My go-to comment for every Musk headline never fails:

k.

Imagine doing an antitrust violation when you don’t even have the market clout for a payoff in the first place.

I forgot about that angle. That should be an amusing lawsuit. Hopefully it takes another few bi££ion from his $orry a$$.

lol yeah I’m going to stick to Apple… As long as Apple cares about security, I’ll continue to use their products. IDGAF about Tesla or X, quite frankly.

What are they going to use instead? Windows, which also has an OpenAI partnership? Android, which had Gemini and probably even worse privacy?

Or is the whole company switching to Linux and Linux mobile

Switching to Linux Mobile would be a welcome change, imagine them heading a FOSS Linux distro to run on phones

Not going to happen. Elmo is too self-centered to develop a phone in the spirit of FOSS. And then there are reputational issues to consider; many would be opposed to working for the benefit of Elmo.

Yeah that’s probably true

Don’t think it’s about privacy. It’s about that he wants money from openai because he tried to buy them out or something, or was involved a long time ago, or tried to get involved, or whatever, but he thinks he should have a big payday from it now that its stock is up.

He’s still so fucking wealthy tho

Fine, I say we take every single bit of his hundreds of billions in $1 bills and bury it on top of him. I’m sure that weighs quite a bit

It’ll get fun if he decides to cut Apple devices off Starlink.

Do people just use the Starlink router without their own firewall behind it?

Never in my life have I ever used the AP/switch function of the supplied router. That fucking thing can live outside my network, I don’t trust an ISP to wipe their ass after shitting, let alone keep a router updated.

Apparently they’re just plug and play wifi, you have to pay for an adapter to connect Ethernet to it.

Yah, i had to get the Ethernet dongle before I’d use it.

When I heard about that I thought it was pretty condescending.

Like give me an Ethernet port so I can plug my shit into it without giving you more money for something that really should be included.

That’s like not putting door handles on a car.

I was pretty surprised and pissed off when it showed up and I couldn’t find a way to plug in a cable.

On the other hand, it’s the best internet I’ve had out in the ass end of nowhere.

I hear the speed is very dependent on how many people are using it nearby.

I’m sure the richest company in the world is super worried about this threat.

TLDR please. What is this cunt’s problem with OpenAI?

Elon’s temper tantrums still news?

The man boy still doing his things…

Me: Hates musk.

Also me: dislikes Apple.

Still me: See’s this story as Musk doing another stupid thing to kill more business on both ends.

Finally me: Yessss…this news pleases me.
