The powers that be will try anything to silence a dissenting voice. It will get worse. Censorship will become more active.

Elon Musk taking over Twitter is the best thing that happened in many years. I am thinking about becoming a subscriber. 16 bucks a month is affordable.

You don’t have to pay anything to join Twitter. It’s free. You only pay a monthly fee of $8, or $16, or whatever if you want the blue check mark.

What does a blue checkmark get you?

Yep, it sure does go to Bob's wiki page. F'n hilarious.

Not anymore. All it means is that someone is paying $8/month now.

Generally you're using a CC to pay for the checkmark. So it kind of is identity verification. Of course you could use a spouses CC and name or business card, but it's the closest thing you'll get to identity verification in the social media world.

Also unlikely that bot/spammers will open multiple accounts to do their bull shit AND pay for the checkmark. So when you see the blue checkmark I'd imagine people will take the comment more seriously? I don't use X/Twitter, but that would be my take if I used the site.

Elon Musk says Disney CEO Bob Iger should be 'fired immediately'

Elon Musk says Disney CEO Bob Iger should be 'fired immediately'

Sounds like Elon needs to buy Disney and fire Iger.

This is great. C'mon Froman, move in for the kill, get rid of Iger and the Wokies, and make Disney a cash cow for the HODLRs again.

Welp, I got banned from Twitter for the fourth time. Now they say I must grovel, admit I am a horrible person, and delete six tweets. Hey, before I was getting banned for just one at a time! How did I get up to six without getting banned?

I kinda know what they didn't like:

- I said that the majority of gay men were molested as boys, and that's why they're gay.
- I said that anti-white racism has morphed into full-on anti-semitism, but Jews never objected to it until it affected them.
- I called Leo Varadkar a faggot. That one got blocked instantly, and that was a while ago, so it's funny they're just getting around to me now.

Dunno what the others are, but similar stuff.

I'm tired of re-registering, so I'm really done with Twitter now.

Elon, you fucked up.

Correct. In fact, many wealthy Jews donated to BLM and to colleges with ant-White admission standards.

Pretty sure this is mere weaponization of government against Elon.

Probably - but this "recall" is a nothing burger and just more FUD for short sellers.

I get 2 to 3 software updates each month. Apparently this will limit the standard autopilot (free with every Tesla) to freeways and highways. Autopilot is just adaptive cruise control and steering and not intended to use on surface streets. That said, I turn it on all the time on big surface streets like El Camino Real as it works great in traffic.

Autopilot is not "Full Self Driving" that literally drives you from door to door that costs about $14K.

Just wait until you see Georgetown and Boston College and the various Newman Centers.

He's not authentically genuine, I think he just likes thrusting himself into controversy and creating uproars.
Apparently his AI is just as woke as the rest of them. For him to not be announcing he's firing everyone that worked on the project, and hiring new developers to fix it. Is all you need to know.

This makes his purchase of Twitter because of 2@ issues, another brash decision by an acentric billionaire. It removes any heroic reasons we may reserve for his acquisition of Twitter.

Lol, they are sounding pretty desperate lately, reaching for any excuse for mass censorship.

Tesla removes Disney+ app from cars.

Why was it even in cars anyway? You should be driving and focusing on the road. Not watching shows and movies. I like my old tech in my car. #don'tneedit

To keep your children from annoying you while you are trying to drive. Nobody old enough to drive is going to be watching Disney.

Wrong. You forgot about Sam Brinton and the Groomer Clowns.

Elon's been on the warpath against illegals today.

Remember the hours of charging? Need to kill time somehow.

Musk finally admits he's been chipped. Let the human/demon/AI experiments commence!

Delaware judge retroactively takes $56 billion in Tesla stock options from Elon Musk

Elon Musk was non-plussed but was remarkably even-keeled in his response.



I suppose he's used to the antics of judge Kathaleen St. Jude McCormick. This is not the first time she's ruled against him.
She was also the judge in the Twitter case, which resulted in him buying Twitter for his original $44-billion offer.
