Nonsense. We agreed to sell our labor for a given rate and he wanted to unilaterally change the terms to 60-80 hours/week while also cutting pay. Nobody with an ounce of self respect would take that deal.

Um...that's why I implied on the previous page that the offer was merely a cover for reducing unwanted personnel.

I have noted the only people I personally know in meatspace who believe that Elon knows exactly what he's doing (and is going to succeed) are either over the age of 60, technically unsophisticated, or politically far right wing. Many hit all three points.

And there we go. Melon just allowed Trump back onto Twitter. He really is bent on breaking the planet. Or whatever.

He reinstated Trump on Biden's birthday.

Just another attention whore. Needs to generate attention. Doesn’t care who it harms.

Gotta admit, he knows what his target audience likes.
I'm sure having the CEO post amazing content such as this is making the advertisers thrilled. So it goes. |

I think Elon Musk is playing to Trump's "god" status amongst the hypocritical "Christian" far-right.
Nothing "god-like" about Trump, and nothing "Christian" about the far right. I think he's bating, and having fun doing it. - AppleNova is the best Mac-users forum on the internet.

I'm ready for the news cycle to shift out from under him. Take all the fun out it.

Is Elon OK? Feels like he's in a bit of a meltdown.
He's out there acting like Anthony Fremont sending folks to the cornfield. So it goes. Last edited by 709 : 2022-12-16 at 14:14. |

I think it's just that the folks saying that this is just Elon showing his true colors (or rather that people are finally noticing) are right. You don't get to be the wealthiest person in the world by being a nice dude. What are some other weird things happening recently in the Elonverse? Just off the top of my head… - Employees setting up cheap housing illegally inside Twitter HQ. - Twitter missing rental payments for their San Francisco office. - Selling furniture and office equipment from the Twitter office. - Elon calling on people to attack Dr. Fauci. - Elon avoid paying Twitter severance packages. - Elon selling another $3.6 billion dollars of his Tesla stock. - Banning and filing a lawsuit against the guy with the airplane tracker account (which used 100% public data, btw). - Banning journalists from Twitter who are are critical of him. But muh anarcho capitalist freeze peach! Fuck everything about this guy and everything he touches. I continue to eagerly look forward to Twitter burning to the ground and hopefully taking Tesla's overinflated vaulation with it. The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts. The only way to guarantee thoughtful, informative discussion is to write thoughtful, informative posts. AppleNova is not a real-time chat forum. You have time to compose messages and edit them before and after posting. |

Meanwhile he's filed no police report and the car that was supposedly stalking him was nowhere near an airport. He made up the story. |

Certainly fewer four-letter words than I'd use, but this pretty much sums up my opinion of this 240 lb bag of cold mashed potatoes. Fuck him. I daydream about Ray Velcoro knocking on his door. |

He knew that was going to be the result, it was his out. Not that he won't still own it, but then again maybe he will liquidate it just to get back anything he can for it.

Or the simplest explanation, he's already decided who is going to be the new CEO.

Should anyone really believe anything Musk says nowadays, though?
