Agreed. I wanted to be excited, but that was not a nice looking or well edited sequence. 

People buy smart speakers, so yes. 

Wonder what rules are set up for people wanting just a free display to harvest. What if I disable the back lighting on the lower portion? What if I pull the guts out and repurpouse the LCD screen, never connecting it to wifi? Will the inputs work still with no wifi? 

The title doesn’t say “All Twitter Users (but really only a secret subset of whom I’m going to silently and selectively sample...)”

They love him because he’s not a (((globalist.)))

What weird sad lives they live.

They hate “globalists,” but love a billionaire who was born in South Africa, raised in Canada, and doesn’t just do business all over the world, but off of it as well. Do they really believe Elmo is an isolationist? I know he makes noises like one occasionally to placate these morons, but you have to be dumber than a…

I love the guy who thinks his $8 a month gives him a voice in how twitter is managed.
