As a Veteran who has PTSD and does not do well on 4th of July. I fought for people's freedom. Let them enjoy their fireworks and I'll stay on my farm fat away taking care of my turkeys who also hate fireworks.
There is being considerate of other’s life experiences and then there is being unreasonable. There’s so many things that can trigger PTSD in people, are you suggesting we stop doing anything that may trigger someone’s trauma? Some people get triggers from benign things (my mother used to suffer traumatic flashbacks from certain smells such as wet mud, I get panic attacks if someone comes up behind me and touches me, I’ve met someone who gets triggered by cars backfiring or balloons popping). The point is that fireworks, mud, people touching you, and backfiring cars are a part of normal life. There are a TONNE of possible triggers, we couldn’t possibly avoid every one of them for every sufferer out there. It isn’t up to the rest of the world to change their lives to revolve around us and our issues. It’s our own responsibility to try to cope and deal with our problems as best we can. It sucks. I say this as someone who suffers from severe PTSD/agoraphobia among a number of other mental health issues that I have been working on for many years. It’s really unfair that this has happened to us but it’s also not fair to expect everyone else in the neighbourhood to stop having fun because we are sadly conditioned to have a traumatic response to something.
So with Spez having a hard on for Elon and how he runs Twitter, how long until we see this on Reddit? Premium members can view 1000/day posts and regular members can only view 100 posts/day. Similar rule will apply to comments too.
removing third party apps itself is a good business move from the view of shareholders, reminding you spez's main goal is to be known as the wall street guy that successfully raised his company, not pleasing users. but the whole process while doing that was very very laughable
spez is just incompetitive imo. musk is straight out deranged and lost touch with reality. he loses billions of dollars and absolutely doesn't care, spez is probably stressed af right now
Sure, make fun of it, but sails are not the same as kites.
With modern tech they might be able to make kites that are truly enormous, way bigger than the sails that are limited by the size of the mast. In addition, the kites can be raised into different winds than the ones at the surface.
They can barely keep the current site glued together. They don’t have the talent anymore to create something new. The people that could do it have been fired or just bailed. The remaining ones are hostages.
Before Elon Musk's takeover of the social media platform last year, Twitter signed a multi-year contract with Google related to fighting spam and protecting accounts, among other things, the report said.
Sounds like it's not about hosting their infrastructure but tangential services.
Of course Elon Musk thinks he can anti-spam and protect accounts better by himself and without external cost.
I'd love to see cloud hosters refusing to work with Elon Musk because of all the unpaid bills stuff.
