If its up for 24 hours, how many TBs of Musk's can I waste in that time?

Thank you - yt-dlp. I couldn't remember what the name of that package was. youtube-dl is no longer working for me (probably thanks to Youtube fuckery).

Over HTTPS which is encrypted? I doubt it. Unless Musk is paying for caching servers, do you think he's doing that?

crucially, ari, the advertiser is choosing those billboards - they don't get spammed out wherever they can by an algorithm that doesn't care if places a brand next to something that might harm the public's perception of it.

well, supposedly twitter has ~$1bn in debt servicing per year, and using the high estimate of 444,435 twitter subscribers the price of freedom is about $187 a month.

Someone needs to show Musk that video of Walsh in his car parked next to a playground where he talks about how the genetically perfect child-conceiving union is between a 16 year old girl and a 25 year old man like they did in the middle ages and see what one-word reply that nets out of him.

That's only debt servicing, it doesn't include the cost of keeping the servers running and the coders coding, which would easily run another billion? Two billion?

Basically, lol. And lmao.

He was Josh Duggar's best friend and went to bat for him about how unfairly he was treated after he was convicted of being a serial child molester. You do the math on that one.

Fuck you say?
I love how Elon thought he could hang with the chud crowd when he was always bound to be eaten alive by them

You can't be a single issue chud these days, no matter how much it stings his tiny walnut heart that GROOOOIMES and his child betrayed him on the altar of gender flexibility, you can only get so far by bashing on trans folks alone

He advocates electric cars, which chuds hate. He wants an all in one platform for the world to use, but advertisers and anyone whose brains aren't entirely ruined don't want to use his cat blending streaming service anymore. He wants to be a political mover and shaker but anyone who gets near him becomes a laughing stock to the point Trump and Desantis knows he's a poison pill. The man is the definition of opening his mouth and removing all doubt. It's incredible just how much he owns himself, day after day, until he's less of a corncob and more of just a lovely withered kernel.

I quite honestly think the ball is rolling and can't be stopped now - his beloved Catturd hates him, a ton of influential right wing personalities are openly breaking down every time he tries to course correct his rhetoric to scrape back his investment as it spirals down the drain, and, well, we're having a great time watching it all happen.

You might be able to cache bust by appending a query parameter to the URL like ?v=123, ?v=124, … for each request, buuuut it depends on the CDN and it probably won’t work so ignore me.

This is why they're working overtime to make "groomer" a thing and a smear against LGBTQ+ people; it's a pre-emptive smoke screen to cover up how many chuds turn out to be pedos.
