  1. Why? Nothing about this was substantial. Pure theater. Make sure the cameras are running and the base is watching.
  2. It can be such a problem when no understands your genius.
  3. I wonder why your ex thought everything you said was argumentative?
  4. I believe you. But kind of odd they pulled this story and there is nothing on the PSU rivals or on3 boards.
  5. Interesting. So maybe the Wuhan lab wasn't behind covid?
  6. Twitter paid them 10 minutes before the close of the merger. If it was 10 minutes after, Twitter (now Musk) would never have paid them. That is why the payment happens immediately before closing and not after. And that isn't just a Musk thing. It is that way anytime a company has to sue the buyer to force them to follow through on their commitment. He would not necessarily be compelled to pay them the whole 90, as 90 is a whole lot. My uncle was a Wall Street lawyer, he used to say a lawyer's bill is just an invitation to negotiate. It would have become a negotiation or a lawsuit at that point.
  7. Which is why most of social media is a hellscape. Why would you want that here?
  8. See? This is what I am talking about. I am here for the entertainment value. Musk is suing Wachtell Lipton, the law firm Twitter used to force him to close the merger because he thinks Twitter paid them too much. His suit includes the following statement: "Wachtell was one of six large law firms that represented Twitter in connection with the merger litigation, a relatively straightforward breach of contract dispute in which Twitter sought to hold the Musk Parties to the Merger Agreement and to close the transaction. While there were important factual disputes, there were not novel or difficult questions of law involved, nor did the litigation require any special skills beyond that which Twitter could have procured by paying hourly rates to many other reputable law firms with experience litigating in the Delaware Chancery Court, including those hired to work alongside Wachtell." Too funny that Musk's lawyers say Musk is easy to beat in court by saying that in court.
  9. Are those guys trying to get on the ballot too? I missed that.
  10. I think people confuse passion with anger sometimes. Just because he is not afraid to mix it up occasionally does not make me view him as angry. Sometimes we agree on stuff and sometimes we disagree. Sometimes he convinces me to reconsider and sometimes I convince him likewise.
  11. I would be tempted to swap Dake and Taylor. I am on the fence whether an Olympic gold is a bigger deal than a world gold.
  12. "highest Twitter usage since February" is another way of saying "we haven't yet matched our February usage."
  13. Better source https://www.instagram.com/p/CuiR5ucviw4/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
  14. I don't recall seeing another wrestler in this match
  15. No, they were not haggling over a price. Musk offered a weed joke based price (haha, wink emoji). Twitter's board took the price as quickly as they possibly could. Musk signed a binding merger agreement at that price while famously not doing any due diligence. Then when the market dropped, he tried backing out of the deal. He did not try re-negotiating the price. For further reading on his lack of due diligence efforts: https://www.thebrackengroup.com/blog/life-science-due-diligence-lessons-from-elon-musk-twitter
