This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I never really understood twitter. Feels to me like it's all about following personalities in a poor format that doesn't cater to discussion. I've had an account since early, mostly for testing twitter integrations for work. I haven't even bothered to log in for a couple of years.
I logged in yesterday just to deactivate my account.
I think it really only made sense to me when it was SMS social media.
Can't remember which phone I had but for something like this it was neat.
I made a Twitter account in the early days when I was a teenager. The sole reason I made it was because one of my favorite bands had an account. Their posts would be sent in an SMS to my phone, and the cool thing about that was how it felt like they were texting me personally.
I have no idea when I last logged in, let alone when I last posted. When the SMS feature was dropped, so did my interest.
Elon Musk before: "Oh, these old Twitter executives were so dumb. When number go up, you've gotta show it everywhere!"
Elon Musk now: "Number not go up? For cripes sake, don't show it!"
Trump won the election, this gereatric nepo baby will be well paid for his services
Twitters is a just a pokemon card for him and he used it well.
don't look guys! I totally did not piss my pants!

I wonder what thing TrumpEtAL is going to do to require people to create X accounts.
And then what thing that TrumpEtAL will do to make it so that his enemies can't sign up and hence be in trouble with TrumpEtAL.
IRS integration requiring efiling through xitter.
OMG just no.
Guess how the suckers that want to work with Elon and Vivek have to submit resumes?
Nazi, who inherited his generational fortune through slave labor, makes people uncomfortable. They leave. Nazi lies about being weird and/or a Nazi.
Insists being a Nazi should not influence anything and demands people and ad money returns.
X is done.
X never was. Twitter is dead though
It served its purpose.
Let that sink in.
Yep. Fortunately for Elon (and, you know, fascism) he doesn't need it any more. For Elon, it is already 'Mission Accomplished'. The richest, most thin-skinned losers on Earth already control the biggest economy and the biggest military. What more could that shitstain hope to get out of Twitter?
Well now he's calling for a new election in the UK (presumably to put the right wing bac in) so looks like he's not happy with just proxy ruling America.
Well, you have to remember, he's an entitled NepoBaby manchild who grew up rich off an emerald mine in Apartheid South Africa, failed upwards into every position he's ever held after blowing shit tons of money into failing companies, claims he knows more about manufacturing than anyone else despite his products getting recalled almost weekly and openly flaunting safety standards over the color of safety gear, and just overall is a massive dweeb who shills failed crypto scams and political grifts over on the Social Media platform he spent Too Much Money™️ on.
So yeah, of COURSE he thinks he can shadow-run 2 governments at once by funding Fascist takeovers. He's just that stupid and entitled. And when it all blows up in his face one day, all I will do is laugh.
The fact that Elon Musk has time to shadow run GOVERNMENTS while ALSO being CEO of THREE Companies is PROOF that ceos EARN their Billions of Dollars with how much Harder they work!
And he’s dancing around Ukraine and Putin. This guy is so entitled.
Haha right you are. It is in his nature, I suppose, to grasp and grasp after already being the richest person in history. In a better world, we would put people like Musk in a nice, humane institution.
Or a nice, sharp guillotine
He’s not the richest in history. Modern history, sure if you count excluding inflation. But when people like Mansa Musa existed Musk has quite a ways to go. Hell even Carnegie’s wealth eclipsed Musk if you’re talking purchasing power.
Musk has now surpassed Carnegie. You are right about Mansa Musa (for now), but the gap is closing. According to google today, Musk is at $334B, Carnegie peaked at a modest $309B, and Mansa Musa had about $400B, though there are quibbles about personal wealth vs. kingdom's treasury. If you want to compare Musk and Musa, I think you could reasonably add the GDP of the US to Musk's fortune, since he is one of the puppeteers behind Trump. All figures adjusted for inflation, by the way.
LOL... is he hiding cause of an exodus, or because of the bot farm he ran for the elections?
