  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Nice to see him get a viral tweet.

I've been seeing tons of influencers saying the blue check will become an idiot badge if they start charging.

I think, if they offered enhanced verification and actively shut down impersonator accounts, it'd be worth a lot more.

I think they should make the blue check like $5/mo for anyone, and create a gold check and charge $25-50/mo.
The gold check will also be given out free to super-influential people.

The cheaper blue check will make it more tempting for the average twitter addict to sign up, while the gold check will be tempting to all those that want to look super-important.

You may still get one before 5PM PST, please make sure to update us after shabbos.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Powerful message. Free speech is much greyer than any of Musks successes thus far (especially if you exclude PayPal). Not sure if he’s brought anything viable to market yet with his Neuralink and AI businesses.

Imagine president Elon Musk:

"War with China?

1- No
2- Send the troops
3- Carpet Bombs
4- Complete Nuclear Destruction

24 hours to speak up

-Elon"

I can’t see the tweets but he’s a Silicon Valley tech investor (made most of his money as an early investor in Uber IIRC) who hates Israel.

Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.

On Nov. 2nd  "Stop Hate For Profit" (not sure if the name is based on their goals or their business plan) put out a positive statement about their meeting with Elon.

 On Nov. 4th put out a statement telling companies to stop advertising. They did not claim that he violated the agreement made in the meeting, only that they were worried about what he might do...
