He's using classic sabotage for spaces that leftists and minorities have been organizing you rear end.

It's working flawlessly because it's getting violent dipshits to attack us in online and real life spaces and being the big concern troll to gaslight people who are not interested in this poo poo.

The chair thing seems doubtful but this will definitely end up in a flattened head. And it does not sound like his parents were remotely competent.

It just hit me that Elon seems to think he's some sort of techbro Hans Gruber when, in reality, he's the cocky yuppie who gets domed for trying to negotiate with Hans.

no, it actually turns out Elon was right about the bloat with twitter staffing. or there's a bunch of people on visas who are trapped and working absurd hours to keep everything from falling apart idk

It's one of those cases where enough front-end work was done that Twitter won't simply crash overnight, but will degrade overtime until the kerpoof crash eventually happens. I'm getting far, far more many page-loading errors, and videos that refuse to work, and overall jank that never really existed before. Add to that a dramatic upscaling of garbage-tier ads that only used to exist on burner-level accounts and a lot of "hmm, that's acting weird" errors and it's clear that poo poo just isn't working right.

Naturally, Elon's Bigly Good Brain will decide that everything is fine and everyone else is wrong.

Upon rewatch I appreciate in his first few encounters with the bad guys McClane is trying to arrest them. He’s unsuccessful and eventually shoots without hesitation but it does help to make him sympathetic and a guy dealing with a bigger situation than he realizes so still trying to follow police rules of engagement, rather than the cartoon character he becomes in the later movies.

I wish. I have a deal with the wife, she can watch all the Christmas movies she wants after Thanksgiving. She also has to wait to decorate for Christmas until that benchmark. I have heard no less than 4 different Christmas movies in the other room today. I can now tell what is happening by the music. I will shout out from the other room, "falling in love montage!" or "mischief music!" or "evil grinch/step sister/evil twin/etc". I am correct every time. Within 5 min I can tell you who will end up with whom at the end of the movie.

I guess I am saying, if I have to suffer, why not the rest of the thread?

You'd think it would have to be but I'd never seen anything suggested that was nearly that conservatively biased until this week. Elon must have told some H1B worker to put in the racism knob by Friday if he wanted to keep his job.

I would really love to read about the type of person who’s still left at Twitter between the layoffs and the mass quitting. My guess is it’s H1B workers terrified of losing their visas and formerly closeted right-wingers who were concerned about there not being enough places where you could say the gamer word online freedom of speech.

I like how it basically comes down to "CLICK YES TO WORK HARDCORE" is not actually a contract re-negotiation.
