Quote Apparently Musk told programmer employees to submit 50 pages of code they had implemented over the past month. If they could not, they could go back two months. If they couldn't do that, they were fired. Anyone who works in programming knows that this means all the top tier workers got fired. The people who work in security, the people who know the code the best, all gone. Because Musk is a fucking moron who doesn't know shit about programming. Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Impossible 407 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Besides being tender hearted about people making fun of him, he was just throwing out revisions to the site left and right this weekend. Guess he needs more people to do that. Link to post Share on other sites

Mind you before that Twitter would give you MULTIPLE warnings before they permed you and the right wing clowns still cried bbbbut my free hate and violent speech He quickly changed the rules to say it must say parody in your handle AND YOUR BIO. And yet, he is still perm banning any parody account of him that followed his omnthe whim made up rules. Just last week he said comedy is now legal... That didn't last long. He also said..no permanent bans... That didn't last long. Freedom of speech... Oh wait you can't make fun of me What a man child Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,230 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Quote A better analogy would be like a bar with open mike. Sometimes people go to the mike and they do well. So they start doing more frequently. Then they start getting a following, more people start going to the bar just to listen to them. Everyone benefits. The people get a show for people they want. The comedian gets experience and a following. And the bar gets free entertainment and even increase patronage from people going to see the shows. Then the Elon buys the Bar... sees the comedians performing "for free" on his stage and decides to start charging people to perform on his bar. He also fires security and invited back the local neo nazi gang that was banned. The comedians leave because they don't want pay to perform. They should be the ones getting paid in fact. The public goes away because the entertainment left... and the bar is not safe anymore. And then Elon complains people are sabotaging his bar. Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,230 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Didn't Musk make a tweet declaring that people should vote for Republicans in these mid-terms, outright breaking his promise that Twitter would be neutral under him? He really can't stop owning himself. Link to post Share on other sites

It's far more sleazy than I expected, but also will make a lot of money. I had assumed they pay for verification method meant vetted profiles would have to pay to be verified, not anyone who pays 8 bucks is automatically verified. So exactly what he had a titty attack about this weekend could just happen in infinite ways. The badges dont even look different. There's just a hover feature and it's the bare minimum.

Also, it seems to have dawned on automobile manufacturers that Twitter, where they advertise for their own automobiles, can now directly affect the fate of Tesla stock. So they pulled all of their advertising as well, because if Twitter's financials collapse, it risks hurting Tesla's financial future as well. And GM, Ford, and the other major car companies can indirectly hurt Tesla. Smart move on IncElon's behalf to start threatening advertisers. That'll work. It's hard to understand why companies would be wary of Twitter under Musk. Link to post Share on other sites

That's why advertisers started leaving in droves last week after meeting with him. There was someone impersonating a drug company and the tweet got shared 10K times last I checked. The real drug company had to issue a statement that its not them.... It's pure chaos. Link to post Share on other sites

As big a tool as Twitter is, it doesnt have the reach of a Facebook or Instagram and never will. It isnt popular with younger people and doesn't have the ability to create content stars. It's funny how he and his weirdo fans acted like he was just gonna burn 44 bil so angry Trump fans can post racist bullshit and he didn't care about the money, and a week in he's just making a fool of himself and made Twitter's credibility plummet.
