Apparently it's OK to be a fascist piece of poo poo on twitter, because you'll get a sternly written note under your tweets to the effect of "tut tut"

Thinking about how it actually is the perfect time for Jack Dorsey’s new Twitter clone to launch, in the week since blue checks became prioritised the quality of replies to any large tweet have become so drastically, noticeably worse. You have to wade through so much poo poo to get to replies from people who aren’t completely brain dead and for most casual users it’s gonna be the first time since Musk took over that they can look and Twitter and see how much worse he’s made it.

Tbh my fav topic about elon by far and away are about him lacking the soul of a poster. I'll never forget the day I read the tweet that said "Donald trump is a poster, elon musk is a reply guy"

If the Internet is the engine upon which knowledge runs, then AI is a bucket of sand about to be poured into the gas tank.

I used to worry about what my daughter would experience on social media, now I suspect there won't be a usable social ecosystem when she's old enough to use one.

I'm looking forward to the time AI needs to be dumbed down to pass off as an average Internet user so it can be used to effectively astroturf/propagandize/scam, and I suspect we're also not far off that, either.

There needs to be a word for that point. Like there's a word for the singularity.

He took away "legacy" blue checkmarks on 4/20, but kept them on people who specifically said they wouldn't pay(stephen king, Ice T, Lebron). As more and more people started treat it as a mark of shame, he started applying it to people to shame them, eventually breaking down and putting a blue check on anybody with 1m subscribers including dead people like Jamal Koshoggi and a fake Disney Channel account.

Then after showing a screenshot of new features, he exposed his burner account which was him role playing as a super horny racist 3 year old.

and by obliterating the launch pad it probably sent chunks of concrete flying and damaged the engines which probably caused it to blow up

elon has run out of features that were already in development before he arrived to take credit for, so he's resorting to reviving features that twitter already launched and killed because nobody used them
