So basically according to Musk, Twitter's eventual demise is not:
- Impulsive decisions
- Destruction of essential system architecture
- The firing of almost the entire team devotes to keeping the site stable and secure- Removing all anti-bot safety nets
- Excitedly letting back in bigots and harassers
- Removing all verification, leading to massive impersonation
- Overcharging for what was previously free.

Nope. It's solely due to the jews.

@annmlipton@esq.social @maxkennerly@mstdn.social Yup. I assume he will do some sort of long-term vesting option that allows him to fire one-day before it vests and they lose everything. Force the current employees to stay against their will or lose this package. It is performance-based. So he will likely just do some really shortsighted rule that only gives programmers who write tons of crappy code the $$ and leaves everyone else out in the cold. And makes it very easy for them to lose all of the bonus too.

@DavidM_yeg@mstdn.ca @michaelgemar@mstdn.ca @GreenFire@mstdn.social @theogrin@chaosfem.tw @maxkennerly@mstdn.social don’t forget that govt is required to meet strict tolerances. They need to focus on specific mission parameters from the initial design. Private companies like SpaceX don’t. They can cut corners. They can create a rocket like Starship that has zero capability to do any of its mission parameters and leave that to a nebulous future design that they will still have to figure out.

@Teufelwolf666 @zoeschiffer I assume that is his plan with not paying rent. Wait till the building owner kicks them out and go “woe is me! My company has no home! We must move to Texas to get away from evil lib building owners who are attacking me for my politics” or some other Bs.

For example when Musk was talking about how cheap his tunnels were - he didn’t include any of the actual expensive costs that the municipal tunnels must.

Two more hours and these babies go into the oven.

My first attempt at a six strand braid. I got the middle nicely. But the ends are a bit funky. Gotta do better at tucking.

@theogrin@chaosfem.tw @GreenFire@mstdn.social @michaelgemar@mstdn.ca @maxkennerly@mstdn.social yup. Musk is not some magical genious that can do things faster, cheaper or better. He is just very good at hiding how funds are spent and the media refuses to ask him about it. Take another example - the myth that Tesla does not marketing or advertising. It is blatantly not true under the slightest scrutiny.

@michaelgemar@mstdn.ca what I am trying to say is that you are comparing apples and oranges. SLS was designed from the start to meet all mission parameters. It is ready now for human flight. For cargo. Starship is absolutely not. It definitely has no capability to take humans. They still have to design and test that. So any costs used need to factor all of that in too. Basically - the costs used by Musk are hiding key details.

I imagine he would love some sort of stack ranking system where the bottom 20% of coders immediately lose their unvested bonus.

There are days when you have to recognize that some people will detest you and you will never find out why. Maybe you did something. Maybe you didn’t.

You just gotta move on.

For Batman Day I’m watching both The Dark Knight and Batman ‘89. The two best films in the franchise.

Dear green bronco going 80+ in a 45 - you were driving like such an arse, you inspired complete strangers on the road to box you in and force you to maintain the speed limit.

Congrats on bringing the community together In mutual hatred of you.

(The mutual hatred started when he tried to speed through a school zone)

Autogenerated AI text pointing to a movie prop photo and pretending it is real.

Facebook is FILLED with this stuff.

I assume they are troll farms farming likes and followers and will make a hard right turn next year and rebrand as some sort of pro-GOP page.

Musk's new "X" marketing:

"It the “everything app!” Everything From Adolf to Ziegler. You got it all."

It feels like the time is right for Musk to do another really stupid thing that sends a whole new influx of people here and on Bluesky.

Elon Musk unveils his company’s first tunnel in Hawthorne, and it’s not a smooth ride

Billionaire Elon Musk envisions a world where commuting in Los Angeles is as easy as pointing a self-driving car toward an elevator platform embedded in a city street, sinking into a tunnel and zipping seamlessly beneath the traffic at speeds of up to 150 mph.

@Popehat so question for a future podcast episode - how does this not violate the speech and debate (as well as 1a) protections?

The Creator is a good movie. Very good. It is gorgeous, emotional, and incredible acting.

The young girl especially. She may become the youngest Oscar nominee with this film. She was that good.

It is not perfect. It tries too hard for tears and the villains are too evil. But well worth your time and the theater ticket.

I can’t wait to see it again.

@Itty53@mstdn.social @annmlipton@esq.social true they have warnings. But the way this article reads, it feels like an undisclosed allergen. So my hope is that (if that’s true) this helps them disclose that allergen so others are aware.

With his latest move, Elon Musk has finally begun to emulate Henry Ford.

@Mapache@mastodon.social musk’s ideal would be the top 20% find out their reward is not stock options, but Musk takes them out to dinner (McDonalds because he is incredibly cheap) and they get to spend 20 minutes talking to him while he eats his food. They have to pay for their own burger.

@GreenFire@mstdn.social @michaelgemar@mstdn.ca @theogrin@chaosfem.tw @maxkennerly@mstdn.social aye. I don’t have it on me. But there was reporting out there that showed he was not cheaper in any way than a normal rocket on a per launch basis. He either outright lies about the cost, or did not include the most costly aspects in his calculations that he boasts about.
