This one isn't click bait. It's not about him saying something dumb, it's about something really dumb he did and in depth. If any other CEO did what this article outlines it would still be worth reading after getting some popcorn ready.

I do. I don't care about twitter itself but this slow moving train wreck is still fun to watch.

There is no logical reason to nuke anyone for 9/11. The only reason would be revenge which is emotional. Many of us watching Russia commiting horrors in Ukraine would like to see Russia nuked but rationally that would only make things worse. The main use of having nukes is them being a deterrent for other countries invading us or firing their own nukes at us.

The really infuriating ones are the ones coming from email addresses through my carrier's email to text gateway despite having email to text blocked on every line on my account.

they were met with a blank screen that showed no search results and a pop-up linking to the website of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Preventing finding misinformation and sending to a trusted source sounds good to me. Social media being used as a source is why idiots were eating horse dewormer.

I love my smart stuff but I've been buying zigbee whenever possible. You can't trust the cloud even from big companies. Google got rid of the API for nest devices without a replacement ready so I went over a year without being unable to control it with home assistant. Alexa got dumber over time to the point telling her "turn on the fan" while in my bedroom turned on the fan in my mother's room but telling it to turn off the fan turned off the fan in my bedroom like it was supposed to.

Looks great so far, finally a good mark down editor. One thing, if you go to comment on a post the cancel button doesn't do anything for me.

Sorry, I forgot using the share menu copies the original link instead of the 12ft.io one in my address bar for some reason.

Even dumber is banking with a company that doesn't pay their own bills.

I wonder if it was the hospitals that put the pixel there. Portals are usually outsourced to software vendors. If so many hospitals did it it might be the vendor's stupid choice.
