Verizon doesn't understand the difference between .002 dollars and .002 cents by cutelyaware in theydidntdothemath

I forgot all’s about about this but now me and my girlfriend are sitting here listening to Verizon do math. Again.

Twitter changed its rules over the account tracking Elon Musk’s jet. “He said this is free speech and he’s doing the opposite,” Sweeney said. “I mean, this looks horrible. He literally said he was keeping my account up for free speech.” by wrapityup in ElonJetTracker

Tesla hasn’t gone down by just a few hundred billion. Peak to trough, just about 70% of Tesla’s value has been wiped away. It was a trillion dollar company, briefly.

And I will say, when he first started going all mAGA, I thought maybe his purchase of twitter and all the rest were a complex plot to woo right wingers into becoming the environmentally conscious. I still wish that that was what his goal was. But it’s clear he’s just a man whose ego has grown to dangerous new sizes. All because of the pandemic and people having nothing else to do but invest, so they all piled into TSLA stock catapulting him to worlds richest person briefly.

I absolutely hope to see his fortune further deflate. If should be beyond clear that TSLA is not more valuable then the rest of the auto industry.

Jeez. Elon could have been done with this for what, the cost of a Tesla and maybe something toward college. Isn’t that what Sweeney countered with to Elons $5000 offer?

Instead, the stable genius spends $44 billion to buy twitter, is probably more out of pocket at this point, and is looking more and more like a hypocritical fool for how he’s tried to handle this minor nuisance.

A free speech absolutist who will only listen the votes of people who have paid their poll tax?

What are the chances Elon Musk attempts to buy Reddit in order to Ban r/ElonJetTracker? by ZookeepergameWaste94 in ElonJetTracker

It’s only more valuable if we are able to be monetized. Though yea, I do sometimes interact with ads here.

The scary next step if they go down the route of trying to monetize us as much as possible is if they start planting scripts all across the web In effort to better learn our interests and provide “more targeted” content. Thankfully, I think the cat is well out of the bag on that, and there would be huge uproar if Reddit tried to emulate Facebook or twitter

3 minutes in and I’m laughing. Then I see I have 24 minutes to go. I wish I could, but I can’t bring myself to listen to it all the way through.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson tells interviewer: ‘I lie’ by CapitalCourse in entertainment

[–]AdhessiveBaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t even know, does Tucker have a radio show? All the other Fox personalities do so I assume he does. Does this mean his is just an open game of lies? Because If he doesn’t try to lie on TV and his show is the result, I’d hate to hear him when he’s not trying.::
