Imagine logging on to X to read the Xbox Series X|S X account’s x’s about how to set up X integration on your new Xbox Series X so you can x about the latest Xbox Series X games
Like the old jokes about why is it called XXXX, because Queenslanders can’t spell BEER or just don’t give a ■■■■
'You can’t be ‘tweeting’ ’
Dude can’t even stay on brand
His first choice was “Travla”

Whenever I think of Musk I just think of an absolute waste of potential. Its a pity. Could have been the current generations Steve Jobs, instead he’s just some cringey meme lord freak.
“It was alive when I bought it”
X.com is a failed obsession of Musk’s where he tried to abandon PayPal and instead burn their remaining 5 months of cash on a “global financial superstore”. Consumer focus groups hated the brand. The technology decision he was making were impossible to make work. It went so badly that the rest of the management team waited for him to fly away on his honeymoon and then did a corporate coup to remove him as CEO.
24 years later, he’s bringing x.com back from the dead and trying to turn Twitter into a global financial superstore.

I read that thread, glad you posted it. ■■■■ it doesn’t embed like it use to.
Interesting story that one, I came across that same thread as well last night. Imagine that you are trying to run a company and you have such a prominent figure chasing down nutcase obsessions like that.
There was the other thread that covered how he managed to destroy his Mclaren F1 with his Paypal joint merger partner in the passenger seat, trying to show off but unable to handle the car.

Did hear an amusing replacement for the word tweeting, given the change from Twitter to X, and that was “eXcreting”.
Speaking with some people who work at twitter/X yesterday and it became apparent musk basically trying to make wechat for the west. He bought twitter for the user base, he doesn’t have to build users from scratch… unless he succeeds in driving us away first
Twitter now no longer includes a “sponsored content” tag on advertisements. Just dropping ads into the feed identically to the rest of the posts, so there’s nothing to check before you waste your time reading some bullshit scam.
Just another quality of life improvement for the user base.
They do still have the ‘Ad’ tag hidden inconspicuously in the top right corner.
well unless you’ve actually chosen follow a bunch of shtty crypto accounts it’s not hard to tell the difference
