Here is how to distinguish Elon Musk’s new X.com from 1994 computer strategy gaming classic XCOM: one involves a brave struggle against freakish, hideous alien intelligence seeking to undermine world civilization with advanced technology and the other is a computer game
@Popehat every time I hear “X” brand I remember scourge of the internet from 1999; X10 ads *everywhere*. Makes me wonder if he was behind the company. Anyone else remember those ads? Fits Elon’s business model perfectly.
@sandhu @Popehat Behind the Bastards did a podcast on Elon a while back; apparently X.com was what he wanted to call paypal.
