When the Japanese Earthquake information twitter account was throttled a few days ago, after the earthquake, there seemed to be this general realisation that they were not going to be able to use it for disaster communication any more…

CrypticCoffee ,

Maybe, but I don’t think Musk is running twitter for money. He’s probably doing what every billionaire is doing. Buying media to shape public opinion. Turning twitter right leaning to build public support for conservative policies that will benefit his other business is probably the play.

Why worry losing 20bn when he could gain 50bn for SpaceX(SeX. Just seen that…) and Tesla? Sounds like a good return on investment.

SpaceX(SeX. Just seen that…)

And Tesla’s first few car models were S, 3, X, Y (Ford owned the trademark on model E, so Musk had to go with 3).

CrypticCoffee ,

I did not know that. He really is a manchild.

RadioRat ,

Not sure things would look much different if Twitter was intentionally destroyed.

DuffmanOfTheCosmos ,

That’s because it probably was

As easy as it is to hate what he did to Twitter I wonder how much of that original value was just “VC hype” and now people see it for the failure it has always been like all social media in a way. Turns out it’s pretty hard making money out of non paying users.

ExLisper ,

The original value was based on ad revenue which is down now. It has nothing to do with VC hype or non paying users.

Why are we still talking about this dead platform?

I used to keep a couple of bookmarks of people I liked to follow to view on Nitter; now I don’t even care about that mostly because the most of them left Twitter.

Looool idiot, i cant believe anyone ever thought he was smart

tesseract ,

There are still people around who believe that he’s the tech messiah sent to deliver them to Mars.

Titan ,

I wouldn’t go anywhere this guy tells me to go, nevermind to fucking Mars

tesseract ,

Of course you wouldn’t. I’m talking about the mob that would. A mob with no more than a few neurons collectively is a danger to everyone else.

Nollij ,

But would you let him put a chip inside your head, potentially controlling your thoughts and access to information?

Titan ,

No questions asked!

DavidGarcia ,

I bet he’ll rename it to “SEX” sooner or later

delmain ,

He already did that with the Tesla models

Are Tesla models the Musk equivalent of Heffner’s Playboy bunnies? /s

I’d love to see the investment banks start to call their loans that financed this purchase in the first place.

belated_frog_pants ,

They already wrote them off. If i had lost a 100th of that i’d never have credit ever again

tesseract ,

You could have the same privileges if you just work hard enough! /s

I’m honestly a bit surprised

Surprised that it’s only 71% that is

MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown ,

Well, duhh!

All the devs are working on Wayland now.

Who is making Yutani?

LoamImprovement ,

I dunno, but they better watch out if they don’t want Seegson eating their lunch.

BoastfulDaedra ,

Damn, man. The food ain’t that bad.

Good.

Auzy ,

Honestly, the only thing keeping X relevant, is news articles at this time.

tesseract ,

It feels like news agencies run these stories just to rub it in his face.

StantonVitales ,

That and jokes about refusing to call it X

Zozano ,

What’s X?

Empricorn ,

It marks the spot.
