Elon Musk’s lawyers claim he ‘does not use a computer’
-
"What's a computer?"
I was thinking it would be more about “use.”
-
A phone is a computer
This just struck me, this is the key. They can argue that a phone is traditionally thought of as a phone. Even though technically it’s a computer, in common parlance it is called a phone. Then by extension, he wasn’t streaming on a computer, he was streaming on a laptop. So they will argue a computer is desktop.
-
The claim appeared in a court filing related to Elon Musk’s ongoing lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI. The Tesla and xAI owner has posted about his laptop numerous times in the past year.
[...] However, Musk has posted pictures or referred to his laptop on X several times in recent months, and public evidence suggests that he owns and appears to use at least one computer.
Didnt he have a big thing about getting bigger monitors in the white house so he could game?

That should be pretty easy to disprove with all of his path of exile streams.
Which is exactly what the other side pointed out

I am shocked I tell you, shocked. Well, not that shocked.

They'll argue that a computer is a woman who performs calculations and since slavery is illegal he doesn't own one.

He sat in front of a screen while his stunt double played.

You'd think he'd pay someone better to play

You can't tweet without a computer. It may be a mobile one, but even that is a computer. This is a stupid claim which could only fool an idiot.
So depending on the judge, we'll just see what happens...

Then his stunt double sucks at the game too.
-
Hold on now! He posted those clean drug tests from his computer the other day. Clearly he would not lie about his drug tests!
Psh, no way Musk could afford to fake a drug test. Fake urine costs like $30!

So are we not doing perjury anymore?

Depends on your definition of a "computer". A shitty laptop surely doesn't count, even less so if it runs Windows.
A shitty laptop is a computer.
What kind of mental gymnastics are you trying to use here?
Do you need help with understanding what a computer is? It isn’t a hard concept to understand.

Doesn't use his brain either.

Well we all knew he wasn't the one playing the path of exile

In America, perjury is inversely proportional to your financial value.

Most people draw a distinction between a phone/tablet vs a desktop/laptop. It's not a distinction that can be easily defined, but most people instinctively categorize them as such.
But regardless, the issue at hand has nothing to do with that definition. The discovery process requires them to process any applicable devices that might have info, potentially including all of the above (and more). His team said they already did his phone, but that the laptop in question is not used by him. His opponents say that he has not complied with the requirements of discovery.
The judge will rule on whether that laptop is included in the discovery order.

He streamed himself playing a hardcore character that his minions sank hours into and proved he knows nothing about playing the game. So maybe it wasn't his laptop either.
Not just hours. Like 80 hour weeks to get to that rank.
It also died while he was live streaming nazi support to the AFD in Germany. So he was clearly not playing then

He was using Neuralink and is playing with 1% of his brain capacity at all times. Trust.
