I thought it was just to make songs sound more exciting. Anyway, I’d rather read it.

I won’t even use it for free, so paying seems unlikely.

Thanks, reading it is much better then having some read it to me slowly.

I thought YouTube doesn't show a dislike count anymore... where did you see that?

Yeah, I recall. I think the main concern was not only is it Zuck Book, and fuck that, but that instances might be overwhelmed with posts and moderation problems, and be diluted by wetf is going on on Threads.

He was good at publicity and being a front man... but now his deranged political obsessions have ruined that. I can't imagine why someone would have enough FU money for 1000 people, but be so obsessed with forcing his political will on everyone that he doesn't just fuck off and enjoy being rich. Drunk on power, I guess.

He surely doesn't understand the value of $20, like how Bill Gates guessed that a banana was probably $10.

It's surprising they didn't know exactly where it was at all times. I'd assume it already had GPS transmitter or something on? Maybe they don't, for stealth. But wouldn't the FAA know where it is?

Threads is theoretically going to be connected to mastodon someday.

I don’t think they do auto-landings.

It was a bunch of marketing hype all along, apparently. The more he's revealed who he actually is, the less most people believe that he's really good at much of anything besides hype and being pretentious. The past decade of fawning news articles about how he's the smartest and most hard working person in the entire world is even more nauseating now, in retrospect.
