29.2 tweets a day?


At a rate of 10,658 tweets a year, I'd hope he tweets at least one useful thing

[-] helenslunch@feddit.nl 60 points 3 months ago

Tesla board member and close Musk confidant Antonio Gracias once took Musk's phone away to prevent him from tweeting late into the night, Isaacson said during a Twitter Spaces event on Wednesday.

"At one point when Elon was firing off tweets without filtering them in the least, they were on a trip and Antonio took his iPhone — Elon's iPhone — and locked it in the hotel safe with Antonio punching in the code so that Elon couldn't get up at 3 a.m. and start tweeting again," Isaacson said, describing Gracias as "one of Elon's closest friends."

Musk later got hotel security to open the safe at around 3 a.m. so he could start tweeting again, Isaacson said.

The biographer added that Musk is "almost addicted to the drama that comes with Twitter" and sees owning Twitter as a way he can be "king of the playground."

"It's something he loves — loves almost to the point of compulsion," Isaacson said, adding that some of his friends, including his brother Kimbal Musk, attempted to convince him not to buy Twitter.

Put your money where your mouth is and open source the Tesla software. Do it. I fuckin' dare ya.

Edit: we want Falcon 9's landing guidance software too.

[-] evidences@lemmy.world 98 points 3 months ago

Open sourcing the falcon 9 software would almost definitely be a violation of ITAR.... On second thought it would be fun to see him go to prison.

[-] jelloeater85@lemmy.world 65 points 3 months ago

Nothing could possibly go wrong open sourcing a ~~missle~~ rocket guidance system...

No, not just open, free it entirely. License the code under a GPL license.

Careful Linus. This guy may start claiming he is a confounder of Linux any moment now.

[-] Starayo@lemm.ee 41 points 3 months ago

Musk certainly is confounding.

The nice thing about Linux is, he can't buy it and fuck it up.

Broken clock.

He will release X-OS, a fork of Ubuntu, which is half broken, and has Grok integrated in it.

Elon just tries to get approval by finding a dominate opinion among a group of people and parroting back what they say and want. Kinda obvious and pathetic.

Is it purely because Linux has the letter "X" in it?

[-] Randelung@lemmy.world 40 points 3 months ago

First thing he'll do is write Torvalds and suggest a minor change to the naming.

[-] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 45 points 3 months ago

given Linus' flair for writing replies, I would love to see him rip into Elon.
