tony , to technology in Musk's new idea

Has he deleted all his tweets since 2022 or is twitter just more broken than usual?

It's not a new idea really. He is talking about his stupid X brand he has been moving Twitter to for a while.

Twitter was in big trouble before he bought it. Stop acting like did all of the harm ! he did little of the chaos . They had huge amounts of people getting paid for doing nothing ! Thats why they pushed so hard to sell

KevonLooney ,

They wanted to sell because he stupidly offered a huge amount in a binding agreement. Musk had already bought a portion of Twitter. He wanted to drive up the price with a fake offer, then find a “problem” so he could sell at the higher price. It was just a pump and dump scheme.

The problem is, it’s very hard (and illegal) to do that with someone else’s company. Twitter’s lawyers wrote the purchase agreement pretty well. They basically forced Musk to either buy the company 100% or go to jail, courtesy of the SEC.

supercriticalcheese ,

After he bought twitter shares he only had to disclose that he did so with the SEC that was it. He did that late.

None of this requires making an offer for acquiring twitter. But that’s what he did he made an offer to the Twitter board for 44B$, after the Twitter board realised it didn’t appear to be a joke they accepted the deal.

At this point nothing was signed, this was the time before confirming the merge deal to do his DUE DILIGENCE which he didn’t do, he was in his right to back out at this point.

Instead he signed the contract and only afterwards realised he didn’t want to pay 44B$ for twitter after all. This was already too late and nearly impossible to do, the deal was signed…

I think you might be missing the $44 billion issue here.

Yes, Twitter was in trouble and was having issues staying anywhere this side of the black line. With free flowing capital and threats of ever increasing interest rates, the fire was absoultely in the building, no doubt.

What this donkey called Elon Musk thought would be a great idea is to build a fucking oil refinery, jet fuel distribution hub, and solid rocket fuel production plant beside the building that was on fire. Like when you burn $44B, whatever fucking debt and issues was the matter, all of that ceased being THE PROBLEM. They stayed problems no doubt, but they were no longer THE PROBLEM.

Like if I paid some person $100k/yr, 100 of those people is just $10M, a thousand of them is just $100M. That's just 0.2% of the crater that Elon just created. You could literally have a thousand people getting $100k/yr doing absolutely fuck-it-all, and you could pay them for a century, and that's just 20% of what Elon just did.

Yes, Twitter had problems. None of those problems are within the same galaxy as the problem Elon just made.

I personally could do with Mario kart 64 and super mario 64. Also LSD Dream simulator for PS1 as that’s apparently supposed to be this really spooky scary Japanese game

TopRamenBinLaden , (edited )

This repo should have what you need if you are having trouble finding them.

@ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you (ah I already looked here and I couldn’t find anything mainly gc and Wii games sadly)

TopRamenBinLaden ,

My apologies, that repo most definitely used to have what you are looking for. I tried out LSD dream emulator off of their awhile back and they also used to have N64 Roms. I should’ve checked.

Aw sucks to be me thanks anyways. At least you’ve tried to help me. it’s the thought that counts.

Is this because of the HD PC port recompilation posts of Majora’s Mask etc? Sigh.

Kiosade ,

No it’s because all the Apple emulator users being reckless as fuck, flocking to the site all at once to try games they could have emulated on PC for decades now…

Neanderthals?

AWistfulNihilist ,

You would think so, right? But funnily enough, whenever we find a new type of hominid that existed around us (neanderthals, denisovans, homo florensiensis), we find out that humans interbred with them and they are a part of our modern human DNA.

I bet humans learned to “other” things that look like humans so they could do things like avoid the sick and dead, dehuminize other tribes to kill them in war. All the very human things we do now.

Technically correct, which is the best kind of correct.
