i've never understood why any billionaire, or heck even multi millionaire, would post online at all. honestly I can think of so much rad poo poo to do with unlimited money that I could spend the rest of my life doing it. but I guess that's one of the many reasons I'm not one.

Elon musk owns.

I will still never use Twitter and am flabbergasted that it is valued at 45 BILLION dollars. Proves that the dollar is pretty much worthless.

Free speech owns.

Also lol at the idea that a guy owning a website is somehow "dangerous to democracy"

Lol. Lmao.

free speech has nothing to do with social media websites or private companies dumbass

Bad Purchase posted:

slight correction: the 1st amendment guarantee and legal protection of free speech has nothing to do with private companies. social media sites can promise free speech as a feature if they want (and if their goal is to become the absolute biggest cesspit possible).

yeah of course they can promise free speech, but the big difference is it isn't protected by law like actual free speech. if they decide they hate cats and don't want anyone posting pictures of cats on there they can delete them and ban anyone who posts them if they want to.

so when idiot right wingers start whining about free speech because they got banned from twitter it doesn't actually have anything to do with free speech. they can go make their own website and post whatever they want (which they have).

i think elon is doing too much drugs (except weed cos he doesn't know how to inhale lmao) and hopefully they destroy his brain, then spacex fires his dribbling remains out of our solar system. that would be COOL.

he's an idiot so maybe we can trick him, by pretending aliens have made contact, and we need to send our greatest human to them so they can unlock the secrets of the universe for us. then we just fire him off into the stars and he can be their problem now.

Someone should ask musk what exactly it means when he says x.com will be powered by AI. The answer would be absolutely nonsensical gibberish.

musk: well uh you see uh um with the uh power of, um with artificial intelligence. we can um, increase by an order of magnitude uh the um, projections of uh um reach and algorithmic trends to uh um make X the most uh um open and free uh um platform in the uh universe.

Personally I think it's more fun buying confirmed very good weed legally and picking it up at a drive-thru window than meeting a guy in a car outside work for a bag of ???? while constantly being worried about getting arrested or being offered other poo poo I definitely do not want to buy. It should feel as mundane as buying a 6-pack because it is literally medicine for some folks and being treated like a criminal for it is decidedly not fun.

yeah as someone who lives in a country where it still isn't legal, even the best dealers are an absolute pain in the arse to deal with. the police don't give a poo poo if you're not dealing here, but still i long for the day i can just go to ye olde weed shoppe

The thing that sucks about that google web drm thing is that all google basically has to do is implement it on their websites. They could require google.com, YouTube.com, and gmail.com (and all the subdomains like docs.Google.com) to load if and only if the browser loading the page supports the new drm feature.

So apple via safari could say “lol we’re not gonna implement that” and Mozilla via Firefox can say “lol not us either” but it won’t matter because literally every single person uses google or YouTube or gmail. And if those people complain that they can’t load their gmails or watch their videos then they’re just going to download and use chrome.

It will end up forcing apple and Mozilla to implement compatibility, because people aren’t going to give up on google/youtube/gmail.

Unless the courts step in but lmao fat chance of that happening.

tbh i have faith that because this is the internet someone somewhere will come up with an easy way to defeat whatever it is they implement. i mean piracy is even easier than it ever was despite decades of companies trying to fight it or come up with different types of drm

He's harbouring a decades long grudge because Peter thiel wouldn't let him rename PayPal as x

yeah its basically this ^

https://every.to/p/twitter-s-future-is-a-return-to-elon-musk-s-past

thiel and some other dude ousted him because he was a dumbass and his vision for X (paypal) to be a "global financial nexus" was gong to bankrupt them, and they wanted paypal to become what it actually did in the end.

and it was very successful once they booted him, so musk is still trying to prove that his X.com vision was the real genius idea.

the internet is very different these days so it's slightly modified to do everything people do with the internet now (like others have said, basically a wechat ripoff). but the paypal thing is definitely why he's so desperate to pivot the new X.com into finance and banking.
