This is hilarious & a great read on the heels leaving the dead bird site.
I am officially almost 1 day Twitter Sober. Set my account to Private, and deleted the app/logged-out.

The year Twitter died: a special series from The Verge

Twitter was many things: a news accelerator, a harassment engine, and an infinite joke machine. It will be missed.

Elon Musk’s X ad revenue reportedly fell $1.5B this year amid boycotts

@Cdespinosa Fascinating read, wow what a chaotic way to roll into vacation. I know many people don't think often about Apple's pre "Steve return" history, but I am incredibly fond of all the work you guys did in the late 80s and early 90s. Just amazing stuff given the odd market forces in play, still have my Mac SE/30 from 1990 and it still works great!

In April of 1985 I’d hired a replacement to succeed me as head of the Mac/Lisa User Education Group, and had moved over to Guy Kawasaki’s staff to run the Developer team (Evangelism, Developer Marketing, Tech Pubs, and Developer Tech Support). The idea was that I would take over Developer when Guy got his business plan approved to spin out Apple apps as a separate company.

It had been a pretty brutal grind from the Mac intro to shipping Lisa 7/7 to the 512Ke and I needed a break. 1/

“I’m not actually mad at Greta”

Sir, you are a grown man and you had your employees film a shitty iPhone clap-back against a 19-year-old, in a fight that you instigated. You had to put on that ugly Versace robe and do at least one take of this video, where you clearly look upset.

Greta Thunberg Clap-Back: Breaking Down Andrew Tate's Response Video

After getting owned by the teenage climate activist on Twitter, the men’s rights creator managed to fit a lot of bullshit into a very short clip

Rolling Stone

He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I've ever heard anyone say, so when people say he's a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.
