X is the future state of unlimited interactivity
- AnimalMuppet 3y agoI've been trained for two or three decades that "X" means "close"...
- clipsy 3y agoAnd soon enough that training will pay off!
- cratermoon 3y agoThis tweets reads like the plot of a dystopian sci-fi novel.
- thecrumb 3y agoThis tweet reads like the plot of a bad dystopian sci-fi novel. (fixed it for you)
- uberman 3y agoUnlimited? So I guess they will drop the requirement to be logged in...
- 101008 3y agoThis is so sad. Twitter was interesting enough, and even when they added unwanted features, it remained "Twitter". This pivoting to a dystopian sci-fi product (that it is not even clear what will do or try to accomplish) will make it dissapear. I wonder how many "new people" (not users) Twitter got in the last time... I am sure all the new accounts is people with other accounts... PS: Also, how are they going to name the videos uploaded to this new platform?
- dotcoma 3y agoThe everything app, China-style.
- anigbrowl 3y agoBig ED-209 vibes from this
- afavour 3y agoSure, whatever. I wasn’t optimistic when Musk took over Twitter but I was interested to see what he’d do with it. This however is just dumb. Dumb nonsense piled on top of meaningless jargon from a man who thinks he can just will an American WeChat into existence through sheer hubris. It won’t work but it isn’t even going to be an interesting failure.
- rcme 3y agoAmerican WeChat already exists. It’s called the iOS App Store.
- costanzaDynasty 3y agoI thought this was a revenge play for Musk and he planned to destroy it. He blamed Twitter for his child at least he really seemed to leading up to the purchase. A bigger Hulk vs Gawker. But even a degraded social media platform is more powerful than owning an entire sports league. It has been interesting seeing the people who were brainwashed for the last decade waking up to see the ground truth though that Twitter isn’t real life. It’s a lot like alcohol, your problems will still be waiting for you when you sober up.
- dotcoma 3y ago> He blamed Twitter for this child. Could you pls explain what you mean? Thanks.
- costanzaDynasty 3y agoTerrible autocorrect.
- dotcoma 3y agoSo, he blamed Twitter for his child? Still puzzled.
- superchroma 3y agoFor them being transgender.
- dotcoma 3y agoAnd that happened because of Twitter ??
- superchroma 3y agoNo it's not a revenge play. A single letter domain is worth a king's ransom and this particular letter lives in his head rent-free; he wouldn't drop that anywhere just for nothing. Elon is obsessed with the mythology of X and wants to build an empire. He wants to own transportation, energy and communication and build some backbone to digital society.
- catsarebetter 3y agoI think it's very possible that Elon is doing whatever he feels like it. X.com used to be his old company that merged with paypal. The Occam's Razor is that he just likes the name X.com. I mean he's still a weirdo but he probably isn't putting much thought into any of this.
