Fixed that for you. :)

He's not a genius of any kind, and somehow has a thinner skin than even Tmurp. Shit, even the price was him being a terminally online edgelord, making sure he got the weed number in there for the epic lulz.

Fuck, surely someone who starts a rocket company in the USA and outcompetes NASA must be good at SOMETHING?

Carmack rates Elon. He does go on to say he worries he's stretched too thin.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Mueller from what I've read is the reason space-x is as successful as it is.

Leon is a dumb.

Basically, sidbo, you're saying Elon's skill is building A-teams, selecting the best talent and giving them god-tier projects to work on. And then, you're putting Elon next to a literal rocket science engineer and saying "Elon is dumb because he isn't a rocket scientist!"

You're halfway to realising Elon's genius and brilliance, stop comparing him to car designers, rocket scientists, social media designers, mesh internet designers, payment platform designers,... uh tunnel diggers ...

I suppose you think Steve Jobs compares to Tony Fadell, Scott Forstall, Jony Ive?

I think he's another smart dude who has been driven insane by his monkeybrain getting addicted to social media.

Steve Jobs was a using psychopath cuntwagon who learned how to surf others for profit and prestige.

He skirts the line between genius and eccentricity - which is fairly common with people with those mental resources (and deficits) available to them.

TBH compared to all the other billionaire "geniuses", at least Elon has a vision and imagination.
Not defending his crackpottery. But he's not all bad, except when he is.

Amazing how all these companies that depend on digital advertising are getting reamed.

This is better than the midterms even...

Post not deleted (yet).

Someone referred to twitter as $8chan which gave me a chuckle.

...and gone.

was that "we hereby announce that insulin is now free"?

Moar:

I get the feeling the rush of people eager to pay $8 to get in on the trolling action isn't going to be enough to shore up Twitter's finances.

Wait until Elon realises that account closures mean the trolls can reverse the $8 credit-card payments. Free entertainment.

So Eli Lilly's stock price took a fairly significant dive...

Unintended consequence could be though that a wider audience now know insulin was intended to be free/cheap, so stock price pressure could remain.

Some weird Musk fanboy will tell you that was part of his 7d chess plan all along of course.

Twitter resignations so far today:

- Head of Trust & Safety, Yoel Roth
- Sales Vice President Robin Wheeler
- Head of HR & talent, Kathleen Pacini
- Chief Information Officer Lea Kissner
- Chief Privacy Officer Damien Kieran
- Chief Compliance Officer Marianne Fogarty

Best line so far today:

“The Verge reached out to Musk for comment. Twitter no longer has a communications department.”

Hello, support?
 

With no announcement - I guess there are no comms people any more - Twitter has cancelled $8 Twitter Blue checkmarks :

Elon to the haters:
 

No big advertising client will go near Twitter ever again. It's toast.

@Sidbo - ahaha that's gold.

"turn your resignation from a toxic workplace into an unfair dismissal settlement by goading your manbaby boss in two easy steps"

If someone was making this stuff up, I'd complain it wasn't realistic enough.

Please tell me that's not real
