"Oh I remember now...life was a fucking paradise before social media, smartphones and reality TV."

I grew up pre-internet, and the best thing about that was not being constantly exposed to endless amounts of idiots. We just had to deal with the ones in our immediate vicinity. It really was better not knowing.

Oh, it was. I'm just annoyed by the number of people out there who talk shit about things that they don't know anything about. (I'm especially annoyed when it's me doing the talking.)

Haha, FB doesn't even do that! (But they did suspend my account for saying "Europeans are so weird," because that's hate speech. I am very good at social media.)

I really doubt it. The loans he secured with Tesla stock are going to tank Tesla's value, which is his main wealth. Also, he's likely going to be on the hook personally in the EU for a lot GDPR violations. (Their only GDPR Compliance Officer just quit, and the company is required to have one, for example.) Corporate shield doesn't protect against deliberate illegal behavior, and Musk (as sole owner) is likely screwed.

If he pays $44bn for Twitter, maybe he'll gift $1 million to the most loyal of them?

Yep - half the world's population are apparently soccer fans. I'm not but I am curious about how Wales do. Also, how Qatar copes with, say, the English fans.

That doesn't bother me so much. Unless it's a Republican. But then, that seems to be their default so, it's really white noise at this point.

Oh Elon Muskrat the only employees left are H1B visa holders afraid they'll get chucked out of the country if they quit. Heard the x-employees are calling Muskrat "Space Karen". some employees who quit can still get into the systems since the employees who handle security quit. Better cancel your twatter accounts no security left.

If I were ex-Twitter, I wouldn't be trying to sabotage the company, because I would know in my heart that I would not be able to do even 1% of the damage Musk-ox has (and will).
