MODERATORS
Have we given up pointing out that a billionaire's legal troubles are not technology?
Pointing out won't do, we need moderation.
This billionaire's legal troubles are because Elon's decisions have impacts on all of us.
Do they really, though?
Twitter is still guffawed upon by the media. He owns a rocket company actively launching payloads into space and has interfered with Ukraine defense operations. He's wasting the court's time with his money. There is an impact.
He stopped giving them shit for free
At the time of the incident the program was paid for by the US government and he decided to switch off access at a tactical moment.
It’s wild to find someone simping for musk and then also linking to 4chan like 4 comments down in their profile. It’s not unexpected, but it’s also not heartwarming
It's always fun to see how people respond when they discover that some users on this site don't automatically conform to the community-mandated opinions.
I'm flattered, really.
Well I'm not particularly fond of us giving away free shit on the taxpayer's dime either.
Take the L with some grace. You are shifting the goal posts.
Imagine not using Twitter / not owning a Tesla / not using Starlink in 2023. /s
So let’s put Trump’s legal problems in the tech community as well, because it impacts on all of us and he owns some companies that do tech.
Elon isn’t technology. You can make a case that some of his companies are, but just because they can be argued as tech companies doesn’t make this tech news.
