News Elon Musk and the End of Twitter

I wonder what’s more demoralizing for Elon:

getting booed by (presumably) well-off tech bros at a comedy show and realizing he’s not even popular among his perceived fan base

or

the growing realization that when he’s gone he will have failed at all the things he thought he would achieve. He won’t live forever. He won’t go to Mars. And he can’t even leave a legacy behind because all his kids hate him.

I pick C. Both. Along with the fact that he's edging closer to basically getting kicked out as CEO of Tesla due to collapsing stocks and other shit, and Twitter also edging closer to implosion and even bankruptcy where he might even have to potentially give up Twitter as well :d

He's gonna end up as a star commentator on Fox News or something just to stay in the public eye :ROFLMAO:
 
Love waking up and logging into to Twitter to see half of my tweets not loading, the UI losing functionality (you can’t like or share a tweet without clicking on it now) just so dumb E can claim he made something new (he did not) and have a big number next to all of his tweets, and a notification asking me to pay $8 a month for better conversations to cap it off.

At least I got to dismiss the notification saying it wasn’t relevant.

Twitter is getting very shaky right now. Tons of people are getting logged out of the desktop Twitter. The ios app works, but it is struggling.

Edit: actually yeah, it won't even load for me. I'm just getting errors when I try to visit the site.

You know what's funny? Elon Moron unbanned Andrew Tate, only for him to not only be called someone with small dick energy, but his stunt regarding that also led to him accidentally doxxing himself and get raided and arrested by Romanian authorities 😂

I've been trying not too laugh too hard about all this because he's a horrific shitstain of a person and what he got arrested for is nightmarish but damned if this ain't poetic
 
And I should also note, the way he doxxed himself was fucking unreal.

It was because of a fucking pizza box.

his response vid featured a pizza box that was from a Romanian pizza chain called Jerry's Pizza. That's how he was confirmed and caught in Romania.

I’ll post the screenshots later but looking at the 5D % decline on Tesla Vs Southwest stock price last night was amusing

Tesla stock was doing worse than the airline in the midst of a catastrophic systems meltdown

Just for context, I don't remember whether it came up in this thread, but this is the same hack that was reported back in December, and that took place at an unspecified time in 2021 (I don't think anyone's been able to give a precise date, but I think the general speculation was that it was early 2021), it's not a new one.

As far as I know there's no one who's been able to publicly prove whether the hack is real or whether it's just someone trying to get some sort of clout, but regardless, always be careful with your passwords etc.
 
As a twitter user, the algorithm sucks ass and it's actually the reason why the site has always become difficult to bear

Apparently their main concern is that third party clients won't display ads to users, which means less revenue for them.

Putting aside some people were using those clients specifically for that, this entire fiasco has the side effect that corporate clients also can't use tools like tweetdeck or Hootsuite to schedule tweets and run actual twitter campaigns, so this is basically terrible for everyone involved lol

what, Musk’s Twitter is making short-sighted, reactionary decisions? 😮
 
The meltdown of Twitter and Musk is amazing and very entertaining to watch unfold. It is like when your idiotic boss at the office gets exposed to everyone on the real lazy, malicious and incompetent asshole he really is and can not hide anymore.
