Would vote for that, if I knew what state he was to be reinstated to. Specifically, if he would be reinstated to a bankrupt property speculator. But I think that process is under way in the NY courts.

Starts at 1:10 mark, with the Pope

I hope Twitter folds. Then causes a chain reaction destroying social media forever.

You know, I think Musk should leave comedy to the professionals, or even to the open-mic amateurs.

The Independent: Elon Musk posts Twitter grave meme as #RIPTwitter trends

Elon Musk has posted a meme of a grave with a Twitter logo on the headstone in response to the hashtag #RIPTwitter trending on the social media platform.

The term was the number one trend on Twitter on Friday morning following a chaotic few days for the company.

Employees are currently locked out of their offices after hundreds of them reportedly refused to agree to an “extremely hardcore” ultimatum issued by Mr Musk.

It required workers to agree to work “long hours at high intensity” in order to build “Twitter 2.0”, or else be fired. Having already laid off more than half of Twitter’s global employees, the latest demand led to speculation that the social media giant would no longer be able to operate if more software engineers leave the firm.

The meme that Mr Musk shared in response to the #RIPTwitter trending topic mocked the idea that Twitter was dead, having claimed that the site is experiencing record user numbers since his $44 billion takeover.

“Record numbers of users are logging in to see if Twitter is dead, ironically making it more alive than ever,” he tweeted.

I'm afraid his decision to unban Trump from Twitter is the last straw for me. Every last shred of respect for him is now gone. It almost guarantees that I'll never buy a Tesla, and I am carefully working out if I can deactivate my Twitter account without losing contact with anyone I need to be in contact with. For me it's Trump or me on Twitter. 

 

What is amusing to me, is that after that announcement, Trump says he see's no reason to return, and I sincerely hope that's true. It would be one of the few decisions he has made that I agree with.

Looks like you're right, the orange buffoon says he won't return. Awww! Elon's (stupid) dinky little poll and all that effort of getting his account reactivated was for absolute naught!

Trump doesn't need twitter - he has truth social, the biggliest social network ever, bar none, and that's 100% true. Everyone says.

I know American work culture (particularly software and Silicon Valley) is fundamentally broken, but it's incredible to see people defending 80 hour weeks as the bare minimum for keeping a job, especially managers.

 

I would suggest a manager's job is to protect their staff from having to work those kind of hours, and expecting it is the failure.
