MikeJF posted:Maybe I missed this earlier but is https://muskmessages.com/ legit because some of the stuff in there is hilariously dumbfuck This page says quote:The messages are taken from public records and filings from Elon Musk's upcoming court case with Twitter. They were interpreted by AI. which I assume means everything is fake

elon still doesnt seem to grasp that no one wanted the blue checkmark, they wanted what it symbolizes: that twitter backs up that they are who they claim to be reducing it to a shiny piece of flair removed all that

Heath posted:What is the basis for "corrupt" exactly, that they're not who they say they are? The issue was that verified users could change their profile name without losing or having their verified badge contested. So scammers would steal the account of some random verified nobody, change the name to Eion Mysk and promote crypto scams A sensible person would say "maybe don't allow verified users to change their profile name" an as a quick solution force verified users back to the original name they verified under, but nah, mush has decided that turning the whole system on the head and making the badges worthless is the way forward

aren't there any right wing people on good terms with musk that can drag him aside and say "dude, you're KILLING us now. this isnt helping at all" musk would obviously not listen to sensible people and/or leftists, but these moves seem to anger everyone except scammers and people with the urge to post the N-word under a "verified" account

goatface posted:I wonder how many auto-trading algorithms are getting hosed about. I would assume the auto-trading algorithms are already set up with which Twitter usernames they should monitor, so fake imposters wouldn't affect that at all. And if any of them are doing more advanced sentiment analysis, I think Twitter Blue "verification" looks like something completely new in the API responses.

Hollismason posted:Reading right now that apparently he's verifying Neo Nazis and transphobic homophobic organizations as well. He isn't verifying anyone. There is no verification process anymore. The only check is if your credit card goes through. Musk is indirectly to blame for transphobes and homophobes being able to get the now useless checkmark, but he's not personally verifying them.

I requested a download of all my twitter data earlier today, but haven’t received a download link yet. Maybe I was too late and Musk ripped out that system because he didn’t see any use. I bet the EU disagrees, though.

I do think this is a bit disingenuous - it is not like Elon personally went in and approved these folks. He just allowed them to play the same game as everyone else - pay $8 for a now worthless checkmark.

Anyone managed to download their data from twitter lately? I've been waiting like four days now and is starting to suspect data downloads is one of the "unimportant" things Musk took down.

MikeJF posted:Gwynne Shotwell does the actual running of SpaceX, Musk just makes big statements and insists on dumb things with the Starship project. I wonder if Musk is so hands-on with Twitter because it's his first chance in a while to be a "real" decision maker and not just some figurehead that throws ideas at the wall. Which is also why it all has gone to poo poo - turns out he's a bad leader.

BigBadSteve posted:Ok, thanks. I'm starting a programming course at college next year, and hope I don't regret it. This is the techiest of tech hacks, you should never code like that unless you are on the bleeding edge of 1990 computer tech performance. But it's an example of code that is brilliant, incomprehensible, barely maintainable and fast, and shows that you can't just print out some code snippet and go "ah, this is the taste of Good Code" to wow musk

smackfu posted:Carmack spent a lot of time on his version of SpaceX but it didn’t work out for him. Worth noting that he worked with a budget that was less than a fraction of a percent of SpaceX's budget, so that something managed to stay in the air for more than a few seconds is impressive in itself.

An acquaintance just got their twitter taken over by some chinese spammer. They claim to have used good passwords from lastpass and received a recovery email right before they lost access, but it doesn't seem like the email itself was ever accessed. So this might be the beginning of chinese spammers just taking over accounts left and right through some flaw in twitter and there's no one left to stop them.

I wonder if everyone should hound Musk about publishing those internal Twitter discussions about supressing Hunter's laptop, because they don't exist, and the more pressure he gets without turning up anything, the more the right will hate him.

Clyde Radcliffe posted:rt.com is inaccessible across most, if not all, of the EU and it wasn't even breaking any EU regulations. Their twitter account is still active but the tweets can't be viewed in those countries either. isn't that just self censoring to avoid paying fines for GDPR noncompliance? like all those american newspapers websites that just throw an error if you visit from the EU

Then there would be no open channel for bacteria or other stuff to get through.

Power is an issue, you either have to put in a battery with all the issues that comes with, or do some fancy NFC/RFID power induction (but that means your system has less power than a bug's fart to read neuron signals and transmit them out through flesh and bone)
