    Where my free speech warriors at? Did your principles suddenly vanish, or have y'all been principle-free all along?

    Elon is running Trump's ground game, bribing voters directly and sending them microtargeted disinformation.

    He's also throttling Dems and boosting Rs on Twitter.
    Yah, he's eyeing the money to be made by pandering to the right

    I think he's more enamored with power, tbh. It's recently been estimated he'll be a trillionaire by 2027 or so.

    True but I think it's eating him that Twitter has been a nightmare investment for him.

    Turnabout is fair play. You didn't say a peep in 2020 when Twitter, Facebook, and the MSM were doing far worse to R's while running cover for the Biden campaign.

    “We need national action and sadly, our Congress has been dysfunctional when it comes to addressing these threats to our children. So you’re absolutely right. This should be at the top of every legislative, political agenda. There should be a lot of things done. We should be, in my view, repealing something called section 230, which gave platforms on the internet immunity because they were thought to be just pass-throughs, that they shouldn’t be judged for the content that is posted. But we now know that that was an overly simple view, that if the platforms, whether it’s Facebook or Twitter or X or Instagram or TikTok, whatever they are, if they don’t moderate and monitor the content we lose total control and it’s not just the social and psychological effects it’s real harm, it’s child porn and threats of violence, things that are terribly dangerous.”
    She said the quite part out loud.

    Child porn good now?

    "We" is obviously collective. She's actually thinking of people like you who lost their minds due to unmoderated social media.

    Explain your theory.

    It's clearly not what you want it to be.

    Tesla delays Cybertruck’s range extender, reduces its range

    ...
    These were the original specs for the Cybertruck:

    Most people reserved the “500+” mile range tri-motor version for $70,000. Now, Tesla’s tri-motor Cybertruck starts at $100,000 and gets 320 miles of range.

    Instead of the Cybertruck achieving its promised range, Tesla said that it would launch a “range extender”, which consists of an additional battery pack that sits in the truck’s bed, taking about a third of the bed’s space.

    Originally, Tesla said it would increase the range of the dual-motor Cybertruck from 340 miles to over 470 miles and the Cyberbeast from 320 miles to over 440 miles.

    However, Tesla has updated its range extender specs:

    Tesla now says that the range extender should result in “445+ miles” rather than “470+ miles” for the dual motor – a ~25-mile reduction in range.

    NASA head says report of Elon Musk talking to Putin should be investigated

    NASA Administrator Bill Nelson told Semafor’s Burgess Everett Friday that a Wall Street Journal report about calls between SpaceX founder Elon Musk and Russian President Vladimir Putin “should be investigated.”

    “I don’t know if that story is true,” Nelson said. “If it’s true there have been multiple conversations with Elon Musk and the president of Russia, then that would be concerning, particularly for NASA and the Department of Defense,” he added.

    SpaceX is a key commercial partner for NASA: On Friday, NASA’s Crew-8 mission members returned to Earth on a SpaceX capsule. Speaking at Semafor’s World Economy Summit in Washington, DC, Nelson stressed that the agency was nonpartisan and praised his dealings with SpaceX CEO Gwynne Shotwell. The NASA head said that Musk largely leaves her to run the company, which he added has “been phenomenally successful.”

    It's the same-old same-old every time. The election was stolen because Trump got/gets fact-checked. Any arguments to the contrary are biased and partisan and weaponization.

    I never quite got the deemphasis of NASA, there are certain disadvantages to being dependent on third parties to run your space program. People like Elon who have massive contracts with the government, business relations with the leaders of foreign countries and a friendly personal relationship with one of the candidates, need to stay in their lane.

    But what am I talking about, apparently if you're rich enough you can do anything.

    It is very simple as NASA no longer has the money or support to really push for space flight. That is why Musk and Bezos were allowed to be third party vendors

    I can’t believe Boeing making spacecraft they can’t even keep there fixed wing planes in the air.

    that's the usual result of chronic disinvestment, one might even say it was the main point of defunding NASA

    Here's another

    The AP reported that hours after the Post announced its endorsement decision, Trump greeted executives from Blue Origin, the space company owned by Bezos that has a $3.4bn contract with Nasa to build a spacecraft to carry astronauts to the moon and back.

    This is why I won't be voting Republican again for the foreseeable future. They have been the law and order/personal responsibility/legal immigration/"common sense" party for as long as I've been alive, until 2020. They don't give a about any of those things, in reality, and it shows big time. They support felons, decry the justice system they've spent generations defending, care absolutely zero for basic rights guaranteed by the Cons ution such as a free press and free speech and a limited executive, are glad to support draft dodgers and shady immigrants as long as they're billionaires, etc etc. It's madness, and anyone who isn't locked in to the right wing echo chamber can see it plain as day.

    Elon Musk's X is losing users in the U.S., UK, and EU. X's own data proves it.

    Elon Musk's social media platform X is losing users in two of its most important markets: the U.S. and UK.

    According to a new report from the Financial Times, Musk's X has lost nearly one-fifth of its daily active user base in the U.S. and a whopping one-third in the UK.

    ...

    X's most recent report, covering February to July 2024, showed that its user base in the EU fell once more to 105.9 million.

    In addition to its woes in the U.S., UK, and EU, X has been banned in another major market, Brazil, over the past month. Musk has since acquiesced to Brazil's Supreme Court's orders and access to the social media site will likely soon be reinstated. However, as of publishing time, X is still unavailable in Brazil.
