The Elon News Cycle:

According the X Musk, being called a pedo is just a mild insult.

It seems pretty clear that since we’re heading into an election year, there’s an effort by certain bad actors on the right to try to rebrand the conspiracy theories that got the base riled up in the past into new forms.  Like Pizzagate was not “Comet Ping Pong was involved in satanic child abuse at the behest of high…

Or at Comet Ping Pong Pizza either.

If Elon Musk is actively trying to drive advertisers away from his floundering social media site X

Facts don't matter. Say something often enough and loud enough and a third of the country will believe it.

Excellent article. But to this point “none of that seems to have inspired him to be any more careful about what he tweets”, does he have to be careful?  Advertisers are indicating that they are pausing putting ads on X.  They have jumped ship and returned before once the dust settles.  Capitalism is happy to cozy up…

For one of the richest people on Earth, I’m honestly surprised his megayacht isn’t bigger. Given the chance, I wouldn’t waste my billions floating around on the ocean. But let the idiot waste his wealth as he chooses. Don’t jealous so hard. I’d be more interested in an article that hazards a guess at fixing the system…

This is a part of a strike against Teslas business practises, not a political attack. This has nothing to do with yard signs. Elon Musk is a rich libertarian that wants to wage class war and hates when labor stands up for themselves. He messed with the wrong union, If Metall have been standing up to power for a long…

Are we all just ignoring the sexual abuse allegations about Altman made by his sister now? When this all kicked off that what I thought it was about tbh.

By contrast, Prime Video has the most movies available (just over 12,000 in 2023; that’s an increase over 2022's 10,285, but a dip from 2021's 14,670)

Please fix whatever ad service y’all use.  One of the ads in the rotation is a fake McAfee ad that takes over the full screen.  Your site is compromised.

Lying autocorrect Generative AI is still pretty weak on the whole human-name vs. product-name distinction. Probably for the best, I think.

So Google pays Apple ~$26 billion/yr for default search engine, but refuses to fork over $250 million/yr to Canada’s newspaper industry for stealing all their ad revenue.
Assholes

A shocking new investigation by Reuters documents 600 workplace injuries and one death at Elon Musk’s rocket company

There is only one, obvious answer: Kathy Bates.

WTF? The green vs blue has a meaning. Blue means it went through iMessage and is fully encrypted end to end. Green means it’s an SMS message and, as such, NOT end to end encrypted. I’ve gotten green bubbles from people on iPhones when data connectivity isn’t good. It’s not necessarily about calling out ‘iPhone’ vs…

Considering it’s nothing more than sticking their nose in the middle of a blood feud, no, it really isn’t. Both side’s hands are soaked with it, spilled rivers of it. There is no ‘good guy’ or ‘right side’ to this fight. There is no ‘aggrieved’ party or aggressor. Palestine and Israel are both lead by awful people who…

I don’t know much about international relations, but I know I can always trust cartoon mascots on complex political issues.

Because there is no connection. Someone would have had to be doing planning but there is none.
