    And it’s true. X stopped being edgy and cool around when Nü Metal hit the scene. Elon Wants to be edgy and cool, but unfortunately he’s a 52 year old white supremacist transphobe with more money than anyone has any right to have that he pretends to do useful things with instead of actually doing useful things, and the walking embodiment of divorce. He’s probably the least cool, most edgeless, person to walk the earth.

    Fun fact! The haXe programming language was named as such in 2005 because it was short, simple, and “has an X inside”, which the author asserts humorously is needed to make any new technology a success.
