o00o Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 I still think he bought it because twitter was the one source constantly stirring up the shit he does and pretty much all stuff that he didn't like the world to see stirred up there . like this guy tracking his plane or various other allegations. now nothing comes up anymore and he can even influence the elections 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

may be rude Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 enabling the fascists in US government is something musk will continue to use his assets for and, the information plague has not yet reached its peak. recent advancements in large language models (chatgpt) mean increased effectiveness among posting operations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazing Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 There's an excellent 4 part podcast series about musk on 'Tech won't save us'. Recommended.

Nebraska Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 “When I say payments, I actually mean someone’s entire financial life. If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.” Musk said, according to audio of the meeting obtained by The Verge. X CEO Linda Yaccarino said the company sees this becoming a “full opportunity” in 2024. “It would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year,” Musk said. https://www.theverge.com/2023/10/26/23934216/x-twitter-bank-elon-musk-2024 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebraska Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 *can't stand that lex fridman guy. Major brands such as Apple, IBM, and Lionsgate have paused their advertisements on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) after Elon Musk endorsed an anti-Semitic post on X that claimed "members of the Jewish community were stoking hatred against white people." "IBM has zero tolerance for hate speech and discrimination and we have immediately suspended all advertising on X while we investigate this entirely unacceptable situation," the firm had said in a statement. "It is unacceptable to repeat the hideous lie behind the most fatal act of anti-Semitism in American history at any time, let alone one month after the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust," White House spokesman Andrew Bates https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/17/23965928/apple-x-ads-elon-musk-antisemitic-posts 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zazen Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 He needs to take less drugs and spend less time on twitter. In my role as partial musk apologist (as in, I'll defend some things up to a point) last week literally the biggest object ever to take off, took off. With 33 of the most sophisticated rocket engines ever built. Tesla Model Y was the worlds best selling car in Q1 2023. Not just best selling EV, best sellng car. Global EV sales increasing - this isn't just Tesla, a lot of it is now coming from China, and other large manufacturers like VW are now having an impact. But arguably Tesla helped to bring this about (as is their mission statement). Tesla Energy are installing huge battery plants all over the world to help energy grids deal with demand spikes that would otherwise involve firing up dormant fossil fuel plants. Article: Tesla is killing off coal and gas plants with its giant battery projects 500,000 Powerwalls installed globally - domestic battery product which complements solar panels by providing battery storage Thousands of Starlink terminals provided to Ukraine for free Starlink offered to aid groups in Gaza (although I can't find any recent reports confirming that this actually happened) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
