d4rknusw1ld, lol Elon sucks.
SulaymanF, Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino has not tweeted publicly about the delay.
But Musk has. It’s clear who is running things.
pizza-bagel, I wish I could get paid as much as a CEO to do nothing
Chunk, She probably does a lot and then musk inserts himself into random situations and fucks it up. She says “okay eng team build Foo” and then next week Elon goes on a rant and cancels Foo without consulting her.
shinjiikarus, She is giving Tom Wambsgans with Lukas Matsson, human punching bag vibes.
KIM_JONG_JUICEBOX, She’s like twitters version of Ellen Pao.
ArugulaZ, I have immense difficulty feeling sorry for any of the members of Elon's Rent-a-Fascist program. He's a huckster, everyone knows he's a huckster, and the people who don't or refuse to believe it will have to learn that lesson the hard way.
7101334, This looks like Sonic the Hedgehog
That’s my offering
Yamato_San, Mac wants the flamethrower!
KrimsonBun, Twitter*
IHeartBadCode, In July, Musk tweeted about Twitter / X’s financial situation, saying, “We’re still negative cash flow, due to ~50% drop in advertising revenue plus heavy debt load.”
Advertising could be up two fold for all it matters. You sack a company that last turned an annual profit in 2019 with $44B in debt, it won't matter if Musk is shitting gold bricks. You can't pay that size of debt off fast enough. To just get started on that debt Musk would need to make Twitter twenty times more profitable than their 2019 profit. And even then that debt is going to be a monkey on his back for forty years in ideal conditions.
That $44B isn't chump change for Twitter, like maybe if Tencent took a sudden $44B debt they'd make good on it, but they're wildly profitable. Twitter barely gets by and has only gone on this long because of the Tech Bro funding that all but dried up when the interest rates were going up.
negativeyoda, I can’t wait to see how his offer to pay people’s legal bills who get in trouble at work for saying problematic shit on his platform works out
Lonnie123, Alot like Trumps promise to do the same thing would be my guess
The last thing Twitter needs right now is to find more clever and creative ways to spend money, especially on other peoples legal problems
jackpot, (edited ) only chance is if they go hardware i think (edit: have any of you heard of diversification)
tsuica, Hardware… what?
fluxion, Chat, banking, stock trades, and lawn mowers
TonyTonyChopper, what?
JuxtaposedJaguar, You know how some companies make vibrating dildos? Twitter should do that.
sugar_in_your_tea, So it’ll vibrate every time someone says “woke” on the platform?
Kolanaki, They’ll randomly go off in luggage so they get disposed of by a bomb squad?
sugar_in_your_tea, Who said hardware can’t be a valid recurring revenue model?
Cargon, You know, like the Gavin Belson Signature Box III.
viking, Hardware? Hardware was never profitable. It’s a gateway to spending more money on proprietary software.
Rossel, Unless you’re Nintendo, they have their cake and eat it too.
sugar_in_your_tea, IDK, I imagine they’re online service is pretty profitable.
Lonnie123, Twitter wasnt saddled with 44B in debt, That was the purchase price, which included $13B in debt
sculd, The blue bird being killed by the X is such a fitting graphic.
deft, thought it was sonic
RickyRigatoni, gotta die fast
EnderWi99in, What's funnier is it was already dying. It hasn't made any actual positive revenue since 2019 and then Musk dumped another $44B in debt on top of it. It really never had a chance and I think his original bid was either a troll he never intended to follow through with, or he was banking on leveraging all the blockchain and NFT stuff that recently also shit the bed. Either way, he's fucked himself out of at least a small chunk of his fortune. Well, at least until the rest of the market catches Tesla and their hyper inflated market cap finally also goes sideways.
Whirlybird, Musk dumped another $44B in debt on top of it.
He bought it for $44B, he didn’t put $44B in debt on it.
teft, Weird. He was so good at paying his rent and other bills. /S
Kben, Can someome post a meme of this dickwipe musk strangling a bird
Gamey, Someone here got Stable Defusion skills? I bet that could look great in all kinds of styles!

Whirlybird, Imagine paying a subscription just to be eligible for ad revenue coming from impressions of your own content. Literal cucks.
If you can pay $8 a month and make $5k a month from that $8, how exactly does that make someone a cuck?
traveler01, It’s a new feature, it’s normal there are some delays.
CaptObvious, I hope this is sarcasm.
Fisk400, It is normal for features to be delayed in their launch. This feature has already been launched. I know it has been launched because for two days every rightoid grifter bragged about the money that was paid out in order to boost subscriptions for Elon. This is a case of not paying your bills. That is not normal, that is usually a Herald for bankruptcy.
traveler01, Wtf? Do you truly believe X (Twitter) is going bankrupt?
Dr_Cog, Were you not aware that they are an unprofitable company that was just recently saddled with an unbelievably enormous sum of debt?
LEDZeppelin, Enshittification continues…
itsgroundhogdayagain, Elon can’t deliver on a promise. I’m shocked.
Hamartiogonic, Still waiting for the hyperloop…
Sarcastik, FSD $20k Tesla Roadster 2 Cybertruck Solar Roof that costs same as new roof + solar panels Unmanned assembly line Etc
Shikadi, This belongs in !enoughmuskspam
MaxVerstappen, Yes, please keep all the Elon shit nearly packed into one sub that I can block.
