Supposedly there's a setting in the preferences to make them talk... less.

Posting recommendation code is maybe the best possible outcome of Musk Twitter because its going to be so viciously optimized to front page the rankest, vilest garbage (including things Elon does not like) by the end of the first 48 hours in the wild they're gonna need to turn it off and go back to old fashioned sort by time stamp.

There's no way to do this meaningfully without it basically being a marketing- and legal-approved summary, or just dropping a poo poo load of source code out into the ether, giving away all kinds of competitive intelligence. It's amazing.

Musk's free speech is going to lose him a shareholder suit next month. Only question is how much he's going to pay. Elon Musk is headed to trial next week over his infamous tweet claiming he had secured funding to take Tesla private at $420 a share. A 10-day civil trial with jury selection scheduled for Tuesday, January 17, is set to begin in US District Court for the Northern District of California. Law professor Robert Miller told Ars he thinks Musk will lose and that the only outstanding question is how much he'll have to pay in damages. "Elon's going to lose, and he's going to lose for a significant amount. We're just talking about exactly how much," said Miller, who is the F. Arnold Daum chair in corporate finance and law at the University of Iowa College of Law. The case will determine "how much of the inflation and deflation is attributable to the fraud," he said. Another expert agrees. "Everything is lined up for a plaintiffs' win here," Minor Myers, a University of Connecticut corporate law professor, told Reuters. While Musk's chances of winning outright may be low, the plaintiff still has to prove his false statements directly caused investors' losses in order to obtain a significant payout. They're seeking billions of dollars in damages for investors who bought Tesla shares at inflated prices and sold at a loss. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/01/musk-on-trial-for-funding-secured-tweet-experts-predict-hes-going-to-lose/

*Musk wins, drives off with the jury foreman's Tesla* Ah well. Nevertheless,

I mean the more realistic thing is he will be found guilty but the amount owed is rather insignificant
