I mean, it’s less about that and more about just calling out how stupid many of his decisions have been. What’s wrong with pointing out stupid shit someone does in full view of the public like this?
Seems pretty fair since Musk is behaving like a douchebag
I’m so upset at myself for not getting a screenshot but I was in a hurry to complete one and no shit it was a few images you had to confirm if it had a bus in the picture and one of them was a photo of a snow covered bus stop which looked liked Russia with 2 guys having a fucking axe fight, blood splatter in the snow and all…
Not that I want to defend Elon or anything… But it’s an X. The second most simple character in the alphabet. What are you expecting from an X? How much should one pay for one X?
2nd Update: Musk hired a company to remove the Twitter sign from the building in SF but neglected to get a permit. The cops shut the work down.
Space Karen’s destroyed the internationally recognized Twitter brand, reduced the value of his $44 billion purchase by at least half, chased advertisers and users away, seriously diminished the value of Telsa and tarnished his own reputation enough that it may never recover. He is now going to either have to back-pedal or be embroiled in years of litigation. Good thing the “genius” doesn’t pay his lawyers.
Nah, into our airplane seats! See, if we're all in claw machine seats, they don't need aisles so we can get crammed in even closer together. No more wasting time with overhead bins: when you're in the terminal, you put your carry-on in the bin under your seat, close the lid, and sit down. Then the claw machine scans your ticket, picks you and your seat up and deposits you in the right slot - no more wasting the airline's time holding up the line while someone tries to steal your seat or misreads a row number or fumbles with the overhead bins.
Once you land, they empty the plane by running a full-row claw machine, and then the entire plane is an empty shell, making it easy to clean. The empty seats themselves can be cleaned in the terminals between flights - hell, they can probably set up some kind of conveyor belt autoclean system.
I wonder how much it would cost to bribe the FAA and NTSB to sign off on this concept? .....
I thought people made fun of them for suicide nets and incidents like workers having to sleep in factories. Or at least used to, I haven’t been keeping touch.
Yeeeeah… i have an iphone not because i like apple or something, but because their silicon is genuinely the best low wattage performance at the moment, and their software is more stable.
Both of these can change any day and I wouldn’t stick around. Brand loyalty is for chumps.
Maybe conservatives assume liberals like apple because apple greenwashes their company with their ads?
I mean, for the joke, Subaru and L.L. Bean are the obvious choices, but it’s also the kind of joke where part of the joke is that it’s also not a joke.
In 2020-2021 the line “they’re a private company and can choose what speech they host on their platform” was thrown around a lot to defend pre-Musk Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, and loads of other social media sites.
Disney is adored by many for “standing up to DeSantis” and doing lots of inclusiveness pandering in their media. People seem to instantly forget that a corporation is literally evil the second some people get wound up over a black mermaid.
A really old meme would be the anti-capitalist who owns an iPhone and $2000 MacBook.
Lots of internet techies are excited about Microsoft acquiring Activision just because it means new video games will hit PC and Xbox quicker.
Speaking of Microsoft, while Bill Gates has become more controversial in recent years, he still has lots of people who love him for his philanthropy while nicely glossing over some of the sketchy stuff he’s done like his association with Jeffery Epstein and how he has recently become the largest landowner in the US.
I’d say the defending of corporate censorship and defending giant corporations that support certain social issues would be the two most glaring offenders.
Looks like it requires some basic OCR and pretty beefy image analysis(assuming the right side is presented as an image). Well within the bounds of modern computing, but expensive enough that you’d be hard pressed to generate thousands of spam accounts. Captchas are less about completely preventing computers from signing up and more about making it inconvenient and expensive enough that most people won’t bother.
I just decide to no longer use whatever it is when there’s that many dumb captchas. Half the time it doesn’t matter what you do and it’ll make you do them again.
