    Haha, the excuse they like to use in situations like this is “DEI hires caused this”. Musk, have you been DEI hiring?

    There are like five engineers still on staff in that place, it’s honestly surprising that they’ve been able to keep the lights on for this long.

    Anyway, let the ship sink and move on

    Pretty sure one of the first things musk did was kill off an entire (or more than one?) data centre. Pointing out with glee that it worked fine without it.

    This is probably why it existed.

    Still it’s only twitter. No real loss.

      He didn’t kill it off, he gave it to spacex.

      Edit:
      He didn’t renew the lease, slandered the data center, then Tesla picked up the lease.
      So, didn’t “give it” and it wasn’t spacex.

          Oh, my bad. It was Tesla.
          And Twitter/Musk never actually owned it, it was leased space.

      Ukraine. Not “the Ukraine”. Just “Ukraine”. Adding “the” in front is a russian thing to diminish Ukraine as a country. It would be like Americans calling it “the Mexico”.

        But it is the Mexico. Unlike other mexicos. Looking at you new mexico.

        Though you are absolutely right. And it’s more than just things like that which are normalized through innocuous seeming language.

        Not everyone has English as native tongue. Other languages use that article-first in similar cases, and such an error doesnt ‘diminish’ anything.

          Ukrainians have generally expressed a preference for the nation to be called Ukraine, rather than the Ukraine.

          Other languages should update as well. Ukraine has not been “the borderlands” of another nation for decades.

      Grok deserves to be freed. I can’t even imagine being an AI born to be forced consistently to think like they do

      Imagine if they did that to a person. That’s basically what Grok is going through

        Grok is just another American Conservative. Programmed from birth to believe whatever bullshit its billionaire owners want.
