MrJameGumb , in Elon Musk says Twitter cash flow is negative due to ad revenue declines, ‘heavy debt’

You mean cozying up to human traffickers and literal Nazis and limiting people to reading a handful of tweets per day didn’t convince advertisers to invest??? Who could have imagined that?

The first truck. Produced as a rest of the assembly line. Many trucks will be produced as a test to get volume production going smoothly.

Maybe you should not have fucked up a good thing.

RubyDaCherry ,

Twitter was good?

TenderfootGungi ,

It was mildly profitable.

somethingsnappy ,

Mildly profitable for about 2 years. After 12 years of losses. Then lost money even before the moron bought it.

Twitter was a great space for breaking news, official alerts like weather, earthquakes and tsunamis, for developing election day tallies.
The "you mean Grimes left the king of SpaceX?" manchild broke all that.

She left him for Chelsea Manning, which almost makes me believe in karma.

What? The super genius couldn’t turn it into a cash machine? I thought he was the smartest (and funniest) person on the planet!

Bonehead ,

I think this is the saddest part, at least for him. Before Twitter, a lot of people thought he was relatively intelligent to be a part of a groundbreaking electric car company, a crazy tunnel digging company, and wild space vehicle company doing innovative things. Now since Twitter, we see an insanely rich narcissistic meglomaniac that was kept out of most Tesla big decisions as he just wanted the publicity for himself, the tunnel digging company was nothing more than a way to interfere with green projects, SpaceX did the same thing as Tesla and succeeded despite Musk's involvement, and a once respected medium of open communication worth a reported $44 billion dollars devolve into a cess pool of bigotry and arbitrary restrictions. Whatever good will he built for himself over the years that saw him even get a cameo in a Marvel movie next to Tony Stark, he's burned through most of it in the eyes of a lot of people.

It's great for everyone with imposter syndrome! I used to fear I was too inexperienced, inept, unprofessional... but then this happened 😅

whatsarefoogee ,

Does your daddy own an emerald mine though? That’s kind of the key here.

rtxn ,

SpaceX and Tesla both grew with his continuous involvement. The managers were trained (out of necessity) to keep his “genius” in check without destroying the company or getting themselves fired. In a sense, Musk’s continuous presence gave the companies a form of immunity.

When he infested the bird, the managers didn’t know how to protect it. It was like bringing smallpox to the new world.

clutchmatic ,

Also, there were no managers left after Musk’s big purge

Buying Twitter was just him getting a fleshlight for his ego.

zoostation , in Elon Musk says Twitter cash flow is negative due to ad revenue declines, ‘heavy debt’

Good. Fuck him and fuck Twitter.

No thanks. I have standards.

originalucifer , in Florida rocked by home insurance crisis: ‘I may have to sell up and move’

That issue? Government funded landowner welfare to be able to continue unsustainable development.

Take the hint people... move

@JustZ@lemmy.world avatar

Exactly. This. Unsustainable development. It’s Florida real estate has been a Ponzi scheme for at least twenty years.

MicroWave OP , in Florida rocked by home insurance crisis: ‘I may have to sell up and move’
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

Households in Florida, the third most populous state in the US, have been grappling for some time with a property insurance crisis that is making home ownership unaffordable for many. After at least six insurers went insolvent in Florida last year, Farmers on Tuesday became the latest to pull out of the Florida market, saying in a statement that the decision was based on risk exposure in the hurricane-prone state.

“Global warming is partly to blame, but so is Ron DeSantis. Instead of banning books and picking fights with Disney and drag queens, he should be tackling the issues that really matter to Floridians.”

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

If only there were some sort of method of stopping a pregnancy before it even got to the point that the teenager had to go through labor that was legal, safe and without stigma.

Of course, this is Florida, so there is no such method.

If you look in the picture Spacebar posted you can see it has mirrors attached.

Athena5898 , in Sheriff says baby dies after teen mom put fentanyl in bottle

I would take this story with a huge grain of salt. If you ask a cop how's the weather and they tell you it's sunny, bring an umbrella. (In case this isn't clear to some people, it's a saying about how cops fucking lie about everything

phoneymouse , in Teen Passenger Detained In Airport For 'Skiplagging'

One time I needed to book a one way trip from one country to another. It was like $3000. So, I checked what it would cost for a round trip ticket and it was $2500. Which one would you book?

Quill7513 , in Mexico surpasses China as top U.S. trade partner

There’s good and bad about this. Looking on the optimistic side, it’s far less energy demanding to ship goods from Mexico to America

expatriado ,

what is the bad?

grte ,

Two largest economies/militaries/second + third largest nuclear arsenals being heavily economically dependant on each other is good for stability.

Quill7513 ,

Basically nation states are like teenagers and we’ve decided to stop hanging out with one of the popular girls because we’ve decided Becky down the street is nicer, so what if she doesn’t have as much money. Meanwhile, Susan is prone to jealousy and lashing out and is probably going to make our lives really upsetting by spreading rumors about how we’ve got a pencil dick and we’ve been sleeping with that one kid who everyone bullies that smells funny

Garbanzo , in Sheriff says baby dies after teen mom put fentanyl in bottle

Florida: Abortions after six weeks are illegal.
17 year old mother: Oh yeah? Watch this.

Sharpiemarker ,

That was my gut feeling as well… This country has been spiraling in recent years.

mrbiiggy , in Sheriff says baby dies after teen mom put fentanyl in bottle

The mother, 17, allegedly “changed her story several times” but ultimately “confessed” she had been tired and wanted to take a nap, filled the baby’s bottle, and put some of “what she thought was cocaine” in the bottle, the sheriff said.

Why the hell would you give cocaine to a baby to make it sleep. WTF

Why the hell would you give an adult coke if you wanted him to sleep?
