Victory Lap posted:Why would a major car brand want to advertise on twitter now anyway? gently caress it, there's tons of other advertising opportunities that aren't owned by a guy they're in competition with. I was gonna say the longer you keep him engaged there the more he's wasting Tesla engineers' time on Twitter but then again that's less time they have to somehow manage to make Teslas even worse so idk it's a tough calculus

Even if he wanted to fight bots he couldn't. Some of the worst are the crypto spam bots and there's no way they could target those without catching a bunch of real crypto nerds in the crossfire, which is a 100% overlap with his cultists

WAR CRIME GIGOLO posted:You know what is interesting about this is I wonder how much musk is working with right-wing elements to lobby the banning of tick tock while simultaneously attempting to revive vine. Obviously it hasn't happened yet under Joe Biden but it's still being talked about however under trump it was talked about quite a bit more. Ah this is a good point. I thought bringing vine back is a moronic idea because they can't compete with tiktok but this would do it

Aramis posted:Theory: Trump personally asked him to wait until he formally announces he's running for president, as he wants to make it clear that this awards him special deference in various matters (including in court). This also lets him out of his timed exclusivity deal with Truth since there's an exception for political campaigning or something to that effect

Doctor Butts posted:Did Egon ever actually go to Twitter hq and talk to any of the employees before or after acquiring it? Yeah that's when he walked in with a sink for some reason because he's going to sink the company e: also when Manu who was famous internally at Google for his drawings critiquing the company handed him a drawing that probably got him fired

We’ve got a lot to get through but I just want to say I’m super thankful to be your new manager. Now first of all I know what Elon wants, I’ve spoken with him directly. We’re best buds. He wants results. End of day, let’s do it. Get that site back up. Rewrite it if you have to. But I want to see those commits, on the hour. Also, management says everyone’s back in the office, mandatory, 9 to 9, until we are done. But we are going to be making the best products. The absolute best.

It's recommended by Richard Stallman. ActivityPub is basically an outgrowth of GNU social. Iirc, some server software can talk to both

Hardcastlemccormik posted:The right wing circus doesn’t see the blue check as just a “not a fake” though, they see it as a special highlight that they don’t get. Like a “TRUTH HERE” banner that only the libs have access to. Authoritarians are obsessed with signs of authority and hierarchy so they project those feelings onto the blue check mark/verified accounts and get mad about how they think they're better than everyone else
