Elon Musk says it's his turn to have the remote

[Xitter] just announced a smart TV app for streaming video. Or, more accurately, that it claims it’s building one, with absolutely no launch date mentioned. The appropriately-named [Xitter] TV wants to be “your go-to companion for a high-quality, immersive entertainment experience on a larger screen.”

RGB3x3,

If it looks like a joke and sounds like a joke, it’s probably made by Elon Musk.

Either that, or it’s an actual joke.

Danterious,

No those don’t exist anymore.

That guy should stop doing….well ALL the drugs.

Karyoplasma,

He should do more of them, actually.

Someone start a rumor that a fentanyl laced k hole unlocks the other 90% of your brain, stat

Haha yes very good

(what does any of that mean, I’m not down with the kids these days)

k hole

Being so high on ketamine that you experience an intense detachment from reality.

jeffw,

Mostly ketamine

Fapper_McFapper,

Great, now I’m going to have to put my TV in car wash mode…

cloudless,

The only X button I need is the close button.

Great… Now we’ll need to make another client team in Jellyfin 😆

pivot_root,

Or leave that one out. I don’t think there’s much value in adding right-wing video podcasts, racists, and Russian propaganda to Jellyfin.

Brokkr,

How is the X in xitter pronounced? Is it “sh” like in Xi? This seems to fit this time line, but it would be nice to have confirmation.

retrieval4558,

In my head, it’s more like Zitter

Buffalox,

Yes Sh sound is absolutely what is generally meant. Making it shitter.

spearz,

Is a tweet now a sheet…on the shitter?

Buffalox,

That would make sense. 😋

RGB3x3,

That’s how I use it. And it works.

Justin on MBMBAM recently talked about a “Xeet” instead of a tweet, pronounced “Zeet” and I thought that was also hilarious.

English is a descriptive language instead of prescriptive, so make it happen!

Gingerlegs,

Please god no

retrieval4558,

20$ says that this never actually happens in a meaningful way.

KingJalopy,

$44b says your probably right

Multiple bankrolls from saudia arabia and other authoritarian instigators to cover this wager

SlopppyEngineer,

your go-to companion for a high-quality, immersive entertainment experience on a larger screen.

Propaganda app full of right wing video, fox news, Russia Today and the TikTok channel.

RemembertheApollo,

"Xitter"?

Reads like "chitter", sounds creepy enough.

Shitter is the mutually agreed upon pronunciation

ObviouslyNotBanana,
@ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world avatar

Is it going to be called xvideos?

mPony,

the only massive pile of wank in that equation would be Elon.

Shitter TV. Only spelled differently.

Ah, yes , the XTV, just like porn, but the one getting fucked is you!

Please, do anything fucking useful with your vast amounts of wealth. Anything.

Well, my hope is appearance of [Xitter] TV as streaming service, will force other services to be less Xittier. Kind of anti-enshittification pill. But that’s about it.

wreckedcarzz,
@wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world avatar

All the other services, at once: “Nah nah, hold my beer, WE are the shittiest of them all”

VaultBoyNewVegas,

Skydiving without a parachute would be my first choice.

beefbot,

Agree, but for human tǔrds of his size I think you gotta bait his ego, like challenge him that he’s too much of a “pedo guy” to donate to the ACLU or something 🤷‍♂️

Hildegarde,

Imagine being so entrepreneurial that you think you need to buy twitter for way more than its worth in order to develop an app that does something entirely unrelated.

slimarev92,

Get ready for new shows starring Ben Shapiro and Gina Carano, or whatever right wing loser they manage to attract.

muse,

Get ready for the Hard R channel. It's just straight up racism 24/7

Half of America: why am I suddenly erect?

billiam0202,

No, the Daily Liar is already trying to push into mass entertainment. It’s more likely to have Fucker Carlson and Alex “I need money to pay my civil judgements for my lies about Sandy Hook” Jones.
