I remember when I met them back in the day at a signing a guy with us laid into them accusing them of being Orbital under the helmets. /// Musk is currently barring San Fran building inspectors from inspecting his giant X logo at the Twitter headquarters he is squatting in. Wonder how he thinks this all ends. Almost certainly they are going to remove the X given the complaints whether he approves it or not. deadline.com/2023/07/x-logo-permits-san-francisco-headquarters-elon-musk-twitter-1235450978

He's probably having a giggle about the whole thing while swimming in gold coins.
People are acting like he's taking Ls left and right, he's the richest man in the world, he's still winning. Life is a game to guys like this.

Well, it appears that San Fran def is gonna make him take it down. Dozens of complaints from people of blinding levels of light flashing all night being beamed into their apartments. The building closest, that is complaining, is rent controlled for seniors citizens. Monday they will making calls to see if they can get a court to force him to shut it down.
Also it does the strobe effect with triggers a seizure in any epileptic that is exposed to it.
More details appeared. Twice they were turned away now, and they were told it is temp structure that will be removed softly.
Drone pics show that the only thing preventing it from crashing onto the street are sandbags holding it in place. To get it in place as fast as he did, Musk did not build any of the support structure that is needed to safely install something like this, and well, never actually installed it. Storm hits San Fran that likely ends up in the street.
///
Also confirmed that they were going to ask Musk to remove it until he goes through the proper process.
The company that owns the building also prohibits signs on the building or roof, but they are pussies letting Musk squat there. The person calling the police about all this is likely the leasing company who want Musk out. They are in court now, but Twitter has been delaying a hearing for 7 months now with demands for extensions to reply to the complaint.

You're acting like Musk got his crane certification and whiplashed the sign up there himself, because " fuck em "
Someone likely got an email from Musk, that was CC'd, that was then forwarded 3 times and then once the purchase orders were paid by some accounting geek and some phone calls were made by some low level execs... the signs went up. And likely any issue with the safety of the installation are with the contractor.

His company, bucks stop at him. And his system of not being allowed to tell him no sets up shit like what we are seeing now. People now either do illegal things on his behalf, or get fired.

In Canada we have a Monopoly regarding our internet and cell phone companies (often one in the same). Oh, you have 'choices', but they are all owned by the big 2: Bell & Rogers. For this reason Canadians are always looking for options so we can tell them both to take a flying leap off a rolling donut. Usually any 'options' are quickly bought up and you are back with the company you tried desperately to get away from. Lately, Starlink has been mentioned as a viable option by others, so I looked into it. Maybe in rural buttfuck nowhere it's a viable option, but apparently the hardware can run up to $800 and the monthly fee is $140. I believe this is just for internet. I'm already paying $80 now which I think is already extortion so maybe Elon's Starlink is a viable option in the future or for those in remote areas, but it's not for us city dwellers at the moment.

The X is gone. Was torn down by cranes earlier today. In response Musk ripped off the rest of the Twitter logo too. Works for the company that owns the building, they want Musk out ASAP. Musk stalled the eviction suit again it appears though.

Looks like Musk is realizing that firing so many people was a mistake and now looking to dozens if not hundreds of new employees hiring entirely departments back. Today it is the threat disruption team he is rebuilding across several countries.

The fight with Zuck appears to be off. Musk says he needs back surgery to repair a plate in his back. His fans are begging him not to risk his life fighting Musk.

So Musk was nearly charged in the Jan 6th investigation. Smith subpoenaed all of Trump's twitter data, and Twitter refused to comply on Musk's order. After a 350k fine and a warning of contempt of court sentence for Musk if the data was not immediately turned over, the records were released. Went to the Supreme Court shadow docket but they refused to get involved.
This gonna be fun. First, all of Trump DMs are now evidence. And second, Musk may be personally involved in putting him in jail. His conservative twitter blue paying supporters gonna be real happy as this becomes more well known.

Sounds like Musk may make his most idiotic decision yet. He plans to remove the block feature. If he does the app will no longer qualify to be listed on Apple or Google app stores. And will open itself to countrywide bans.
All because he is mad he is the most blocked user on the site by far.

People are complaining that he changed the name from Twitter? Got to admit changing the name of Twitter/Tweeting moves the platform one step closer to me giving a shit about it/using it. That was always terrible. X is infinitely cooler than Twitter by default.

Tik Tok just added text and image posting. They moving in for the younger crowd now that Musk fucked Twitter. TikTok always skewed younger than the other platforms? Kids don't have the time to read text. :dunno: Truth. At the risk of sounding like a grumpy boomer: me writing a short paragraph of a reply is not the same as me using my digital quill to write you a book. Kids these days....

Then you'll sleep better. He's trolling an entire generation of the 'socially inept' and self righteous in glorious fashion. Twitter was a cesspool of bitching and moaning and dying on every little hill by the slightly inconvenienced and easily offended. It deserves to perish.

After learning he cannot removing blocking without killing the site, he quietly removed on the posts on it.
A new ad exit is coming after he told advertisers that their ads will only appear next to targeted posts, and then paired their ads with nazi content showing he was full of shit once again about protecting brands from appearing alongside hate speech.

Loving how unhinged Musk is. He wanted to meet with a NYU professor and the professor declined, so Musk banned his twitter account. Only the media picking up the story lead to it being reversed.

And he knows it as each day he is worth less and less, and he struggle to move his cars, Tesla just had their two best quarters in history. And the Tesla Model Y was also the world's best-selling car in Q1 2023. " Oh, the failures. The many, many failures... " ( sing it in the tune of Park Life by Blur )

The funny thing is, Musk knew it was a porn site, he just assumed he could buy it very cheap not realizing the site almost has the traffic twitter does, and if you exclude the bots, almost certainly more real users. WGCZ Holding values the site in the billions as their flagship porn hub, and Musk assumed that a few million would be enough.

Fantastic article on the Musk man. Of course people sharing this on Twitter are getting banned. www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/08/28/elon-musks-shadow-ruleMusk, that article revealed, takes ambien for sleep and ketamine for depression. That is a combination that becomes very lethal fast and both drugs build tolerance when abused. Black box warning on that interaction that he is ignoring.

I don't understand why you keep coming into threads he enjoys sharing news or "news" in and antagonizing him. Because I'm a miserable asshole. That, and he's made numerous comments that are absolutely rubbish and refuses to acknowledge any correction. Ie; " Tesla ain't selling cars " - The truth, Tesla had its best quarter in history and the Model Y is the best selling car in the world... but, who cares.. Elon is a failure. But in the interests of all of us getting along, I'll stop.

NATH45 I think there's a difference between presenting facts (like the model y sales figures) and challenging opinions like you did and purposely antagonizing with posts about going outside, and Elon potentially bullying him high school. Happy to read about the former. Annoying to read the latter.
