Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.”

I also found out from googling this that the celebrity watch trackers report that Elon hasn’t regularly worn a watch for years

you know, after finding out celebrity watch tracking is a thing. (actually I guess I knew that but who doesn’t just use an Apple Watch these days)

Anyone who gives a poo poo about fitness runs a Garmin.

I heard from people at the gun range that snappy recoil could kill early Apple watches, but they also believe really dumb things about springs.

you'd have to have some crazy rear end recoil for that to be true

quote:

In a special meeting of shareholders Tuesday, holders of Twitter stock voted to approve the company’s sale to Tesla CEO Elon Musk for $54.20 per share.

Of course, Musk’s lawsuit is no small obstacle. The billionaire is looking to have the $44 billion deal unwound, while Twitter wants to force him to close.

While Musk initially based his suit on Twitter’s public claims around bots, it has since expanded following the disclosures of Twitter whistleblower Peiter “Mudge” Zatko, who previously Twitter’s head of security.

Twitter’s board approved the sale to Musk in April, after just a couple of weeks of talks. Since then, the stock market has seen a correction, with tech stocks hit particularly hard. That decline made Musk’s $54.20 deal seem quite rich, and Musk began to express regret over the purchase agreement in the weeks after the deal was unveiled.
