I think those are homonyms.
No WAY. Elmo’s never even LOOKED at a guy!
The X tells you Xitter is actually shittier.
There’s an article on The Verge where he concedes he hasn’t been all good for Twitter in a deposition about defamation. Though he also cluelessly adds that falsely labeling some poor guy as a white supremacist in front of millions doesn’t strike him as harmful. And why does one of the richest people on the planet keep accusing other people of doing things for money like it’s a put-down? Self-loathing?
Because in his mind he deserves money and they don’t.
He’s just so nuts. He doesn’t care about this person being driven from his home due to misinformation that Musk helped spread, and he’s actively fighting Brazil over their attempt to stop Twitter spreading false info. Yet Russia, India, and Turkey had him censor accurate information, and he says sure. Did Hobbes not tell him “Opposite Day” was over?
X Boy is in today’s Pearls Before Swine!
Wait for the M Night Shyamalan twist ending. Elmo secretly had a neurolink chip installed in his brain as its first human test subject, only he mistakenly used one with Grok AI installed on it. He isn’t actually high on ketamine or a believer in the Great Replacement, he’s been being controlled by Grok this whole time.
Grok would have been a cool name for AI if this was 1974. I’m surprised Mush chose the generic, anodyne Neuralink for his brain damage company when he could have gone with Psych!
He should have gone with, “We Can Remember It for You Wholesale.”
Or “Men Against Fire”.
I thought that one was appropriate because it also involves a Martian colony.
Oh, certainly. The Black Mirror episode just shows why there’s no way in hell you should have your perception altered by - for example - some egocentric billionaire, not to mention your nation’s military-industrial complex. Or, heck, some random hacker who finds the right flaw in your neural implant and decides to let you see how it feels to have paracusia 24/7.

Does anyone have any idea what Musk it talking about here?
The — and going back to the sort of self-inflicted wounds, the Kevlar shoes, I think there’s — I’ve probably done — I may have done more to financially impair the company than to help it,
Kevlar shoes?
I fucking love Pearls Before Swine. Rat is the best.
My favorite though is the idiotic crocodiles trying to figure out how to kill and eat zebras.
I’ve found this:
Twitter implemented a new change on Monday where any tweet containing the phrase “twitter.com” would be autocorrected to “x.com”.
They then turned off this change after phishers discovered they could post a link to “fedetwitter dot com” (link intentionally broken) and it would display as “fedex.com” but still link to their phishing site.
Also, Elmo has admitted in a deposition that he has a sock puppet account where he pretends to be his own 3-year-old son.
Hey, somebody stole the URL for Car Fat Witter!
My mind should no longer be boggled by the stupidity, but… no. Alas.
I worked for a major local satellite broadcasting company, in software - not quite related but we had a short URL for redirects. We have 11 official languages, each with their fair share of swear words. One of our top devs worked how (via a dictionary; it was in memory and cached, so fast) to avoid all swear words in the randomly supplied paths in the URL.
I mean, shit, he was starting to tell us what he had done and the very first thing I asked was “can this filter swear words, so it won’t hurt our company?”
I’m probably not a Twitter level employee, but this seems to be a spectacular example of what happens when you lose most of your seniors, midrange, and rely on the remaining juniors who have no mentorship.
Like seriously, I am not even a particularly good software engineer. But that kind of hack is precisely what I would be looking for when testing.
I don’t think regex replace is the ideal way to approach the (dumb) plan, how about DNS, Musk?
