zackster This is probably going to end well

So another storm in a teacup:

"After touring Apple’s Cupertino campus in California, Mr Musk tweeted on Wednesday night that chief executive Tim Cook personally reassured him Twitter would stay on the App Store.

He said: “Among other things, we resolved the misunderstanding about Twitter potentially being removed from the App Store. Tim was clear that Apple never considered doing so.”"

      zackster as per my earlier post:

      “It could just be that he’s just publicly calling out Apple’s monopolistic practices now as a PR move in retaliation for Apple threatening to pull advertising off twitter, as opposed to him actually being prepared to stage a legal battle”

      And the upshot was that the companies agreed a truce rather than continuing to make threats and sling mud.

        Hursty he also posted the swimsuit trunks picture of Musk and shared their DMs. Seeing how much antisemitic stuff on Twitter is just fine and dandy with Musk one can wonder which actually was behind the ban.

            Homegrove one can wonder which actually was behind the ban.

            One could.

            Or one could think of better things to occupy one’s time

              Homegrove probably the bat shit crazy Hitler rant and subsequent unwinding on Twitter?

                In other Elon news, the Tesla Semi is due for unveiling in Nevada later for the first customer handover. Stacked against the DAF model the Semi wipes the floor in terms of range. It will be interesting to see how succesful it is.

                That aside, this isn’t the most exciting technology launch today, the far more important B-21 Raider is being unveiled in Palmdale, California today, literally cannot wait to see what the next generation of long range bomber looks like. (Much like the B2 I suspect!)

                  Mad_Cyril Nope, it’s my own excitement truly!

                  I did initially write something along the lines of “the latest civilisation vaporiser” but toned it down

                    Are you thinking about buying a state of the art long range bomber, hursty? Apologies about my post making fun of your friends and your choice of trabs. It was meant as a light hearted ribbing and I hope you don’t drop a 5000lb bomb in my street, mate.

                      Homegrove he also posted the swimsuit trunks picture of Musk and shared their DMs. Seeing how much antisemitic stuff on Twitter is just fine and dandy with Musk one can wonder which actually was behind the ban.

                      Yet again you’re so desperate, it’s truly pathetic.

                      Here you go:

                        Homegrove You believe Musk. 😂😂😂

                        That picture of Musk gets retweeted all the time without anyone getting banned.

                        But posting a swastika inside a star of David? Yeah sure, that’s always let slide!?

                        His tweet shows that he can take that photo in good humor, however desperate you are to imagine he’d go so far as to ban someone over it. Again, you’re being pathetic.

                          @Homegrove also probably wishes it was the photo of Musk that got Kanye banned, in case a similar looking photo of him ever ends up on twitter and he can ask for it to be taken down on similar grounds.

                              hugopal Painfully divorced?!

                              Kirk van Houten’s wife did indeed file for divorce from him and he was pained by it.

                              But Elon Musk didn’t even bother marrying the last 3 women he had kids with, let alone get divorced.

                              From most accounts Grimes appeared the one pained by their separation, while Elon swiftly knocked up yet another woman in a matter of months.
                              Grimes even wrote a song about how it was he who separated from her: “if I loved him any less, I’d make him stay, but he has to be the best player of games”.

                              As part of Kirk’s pained divorce he also subsequently lost his job, while Elon is still CEO of three huge companies.

                              The amount of mental gymnastics you’d have to go through to try and paint them as having somehow comparable “vibes” is just another continued indication of how pathetically desperate you are for him to somehow be a loser, and another reinforcement of how empty and sad your own existence must be that you’re so invested in such a thing.
