I dual… Just kidding, been running Linux since 2008. I’m done being old Billy’s dumpster raccoon.

Time to spread the news that X is rebranding to xvideos

Anyone can collect the data anyway, and I’m sure at least one person out there is already harvesting our Fediverse data.

Yes!!! Loved that game, was one of my favourites. Look up Satellite Reign by 5 Lives Studios, some of the original creators built a modern retake (“spiritual successor” in their words) because they loathed the fuckup created by EA.

This is super neat

Yeah, I meant this more generally.

I’ve been with a very frugal start-up for many years and it’s amazing what a small team can get done compared to larger companies.

I think the fact that Twitter is able to run with so much fewer staff probably points to how bloated they were.

I think Twitter’s stock price was a huge bubble waiting to burst anyway.

Maybe things will turn around if we give X some time. I’m against platforms like what Musk is building with X, I don’t like their stickiness and the fact that the walls between functions are blurred and data can consequently flow between them. They become monopolies; they begin to regulate and discriminate against their users however they see fit and ultimately leave you with little real choice.

There’s a lot of drama around him, and some because of his own stupidity and pot stirring, but maybe the world could do with more like him.

Though he may not be self-made in the sense of lifting himself out of poverty into success. He does work pretty damn hard to forward his companies and the goals he sets, so that’s admirable.

Surely a big reason he gets so much flak is because he enjoys being in the public eye, unlike Bezos, for example.

Public figures like Musk draw an annoying and undeserved amout of attention, though. I mean there’s so much else happening in the world more worthy of our time, but that doesn’t generate ad-revenue now does it?

High expectations for a lurker 🤣
