What does he think, Apple is going to release a keynote tomorrow with Tim Cook saying “ah, my bad, Elon doesn’t like it so we’re rolling it back”. And if he blocks Apple devices from
Viewing Xitter, they’ll finally move on to other platforms which will potentially cut his user base in half.

Can we make a global Lemmy compact to stop calling it Xitter and instead call it Shitter?

Shitter is an actual app on F-droid. It's a mastodon client.

I can't ignore the irony.

MindTraveller ,

They're the same word.

Gestrid , (edited )

I still call it Twitter. I refuse to call it anything with the letter X in it. That includes "X (formerly known as Twitter)".

asexualchangeling ,

At this point I call it XXX

Honytawk ,

The X is pronounced Shi in Mandarin

So it is basically the same

I'm not gonna click the link (no hits for anything Elon), but the headline says he's banning devices from his companies, so his employees will have to use anything but Apple...is what it sounds like.

He's a hypocrite, and a piece of shit. Stop listening to him. Stop reading his tweets. Stop giving him any attention at all. He's dirt under our boots and deserves nothing more.

I use a filter on Mastodon so I can limit how much Elon Musk headlines I see. People love to talk about him, I mean here we are.....but at least with the filter I can tune out the noise most of the time. It's blissful. A shame there's no filters (that I know of) on Lemmy to hide asshats like this. I already know Musk is a POS, I don't need to see a dozen articles every single day to remind me.....

Good points! I’ll have to do the same on Mastodon.

QualifiedKitten ,

Some of the Lemmy apps have keyword filters. I'm using Thunder, but I know some others have it too. No clue if there's anything for desktop though.

morriscox ,

Eternity, Boost, and Connect have a post filter option. Which client are you using? It's Muted Words on Boost.

Do it. I dare you

Lol. All your employees would fucking quit.

Always amusing to watch him throw a temper tantrum

cmrn ,

Please do. Keep making headlines for self-destruction.

Based Elon take. Honestly probably some super stupid petty reason or half bake effective altruism bs, but companies should 100% consider products that hoover up ever piece data of their companies data to a preemptive strike to out compete them in the future.

If people don't think googles and openais data collection (including reenforcement learning from product us) is at going to try to the center if market making for those companies they are paying attention.

Thank you for the link! That is a very solid layout of his case against them I think

atrielienz ,

Do it. Do a flip!

Elon Musk making his team to roll out XOS, a Linux distro with Grok integration...

Etterra ,

I wish more people would point out how we totally stole the word grackity thinks it makes him sound smart and well read. Also like he's from the '70s lol

I wasn't born until halfway through the 80s and know exactly where the word is from....but my reading habits tend toward that type of sci-fi, so I'm probably an outlier....

This fucking idiot... Welcome to a year ago, you douchebag. You're not wrong, you're just slow.

I ordered a ton of popcorn. Please don't let me down Elon.

560 BC - Oracle of Delphi: Croesus, if you make war on the Persians, you will destroy a mighty empire.

2024 AD - Oracle of Delphi: Elon, if you make war on Apple, you will destroy a mighty empire.

Me: Yes, Elon, do it. Do it now!

Etterra ,

I understood that reference.

Etterra ,

Do it coward. Keep kicking that bitch down the relevance hill. I want to see that bird's mutilated carcass at your feet so you can look stupid(er) and blame somebody else some more.

Gestrid ,

Even a broken clock is right twice a day as the saying goes.

Though he's right for entirely the wrong reasons, I'm betting.

suction ,

Didn't read the article, what is he right about?

Gestrid ,

In a series of posts on his social media platform X, Musk shared concerns about whether Apple and OpenAI will protect users’ information.

He called the software integration between the two companies “an unacceptable security violation,” and said Apple has “no clue what’s actually going on.”

He believes a heavily embedded AI integration on iOS with a 3rd party is a violation of security and privacy... because its not his 3rd party being integrated with.
