@dustcircle @spacex Isn't that what Trump would do too?

God help us: Musk "wants to build into a real-time synthesizer of news and social media reaction"
Elon Musk’s Plan For AI News

Chris42,

@jeffjarvis this sounds horrible, it doesn't even read the news just people (and bots) commentary on Twitter? That's not "truth seeking" at all, what is Elon smoking?

Twitter is just Gab now

Chris42,

@Sarahp Yep. I also like to call it $8-chan.

Seize Starlink.

Investigate Twitter for proliferating child abuse content.

End all subsidies to Musk properties.

Chris42,

@flexghost Just replace his "work" against SpaceX and Tesla with an AI trained on his "work".

Like "more pointy rockets" and "make the car self-driving", etc.

Deadline is midnight EST tonight

13 hours left & 239 donors to goal.

$11 or $1111 — I need you! Help me prove that people power is greater than corporate power.

I’ll update throughout the day.

Donate & RT: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/newleadershipforil11

Chris42,

@QasimRashid ActBlue really needs an option to just donate and not be added to any lists. I'm tempted to donate, but then I get added to a list where I get peppered with e-mails and SMS messages from your campaign and others they've shared information with.

Chris42,

@QasimRashid As a heads up to others, you can use your banks bill-pay. They just required a phone number, I used the DNC number since I couldn't find one on your website.

AUTHENTIC?
Trump is authentic, appealing and funny. That’s what makes him dangerous. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/01/25/trump-charisma-moderation-ideology/

Chris42,

@jeffjarvis Is there any way to encourage Washington Post and others from normalizing Trump by hosting opinions like these? Do they not get what they're doing or do they do it solely for clicks?

Chicago-area Tesla charging stations are lined with dead cars and have essentially turned into car graveyards as temperatures have dropped to the negative double digits: “A bunch of dead robots out here” https://finance.yahoo.com/news/chicago-area-tesla-charging-stations-024817227.html

Chris42,

@taylorlorenz I wonder what really happened there, usually charging isn't an issue - even in the cold.

If you respond to one of my posts here telling me only that the article I link to is paywalled, I will block you to put you out of the pain. Clear?

Chris42,

@jeffjarvis I wish my library would link up to my nytimes account, the 3-day pass is nice but sometimes takes a while to log into two different websites to read an article.

"The EU has just sent formal letter to Elon Musk over "indications" that Twitter/X is “being used to disseminate illegal content and disinformation in the EU" in the wake of Hamas’ attacks on Israel."

has 24 hours to respond. I love it!

Chris42,

@pallenberg It just looks like an attempt to just get people to use his platform so they can be harassed by his super-fans.

There's only one way to stop the strike, and that's with a fair deal for ALL writers.

Chris42,

@adamconover I don't know if it helps at all but I cancelled my disney+hulu bundle and left them a comment about cancelling in support of the writers.

Controversial opinion: blogs were actually good and the shit that replaced them sucks

Chris42,

@Green_Footballs it'd be nice if, for instance, your WordPress dashboard allowed you to add blogs by just their urls and get a feed of new posts.

PSA: we are still operating here on Mastodon, as you may have seen we are also on Threads.

Chris42,

@elonjet Did Elon ever land after taking off from Austin yesterday?

How did you all pick your instance? Was there any particular reasoning behind it?

For me I was looking for two things.

  1. A regional instance in hopes that I could find more local connections and maybe help shape the community if I felt like being more involved.

I'm not here because I think Mastodon is better than other options. I don't think it is (yet). I like its potential so my decision to make this my main social media home is about tomorrow, not today.

  1. I wanted an instance whose first letters could be typed with my left hand only.

I do most of my social media when I'm waiting for something I'm working on to load and if I'm able to swap between tasks using just my left hand, I can peek and get back to work quickly.

Chris42,

@sysop408 I joined techhub.social but switched over to mastodon.social since it wasn't blocking someone I wanted to follow.

Also I'm using elk.zone as a frontend because it reminds of twitter. To give those folks a plug.
