why did it take IBM and Apple so long to figure out which song was playing on the juke box here

Apple still has no problem pumping this to hundreds of millions of people through their app store for a 30% cut.
Do they really care?
Pull the app.
Time to create that Mastodon account you have been meaning to, the dual post for a while until your network is established and then delete X.
Some people seem to bounce off Mastodon, saying that it doesn’t have the content that they were looking for. I’d suggest that it probably does have the content that you are looking for, but you can’t expect instantly see everything you are looking for from a fresh account.
People have spent years building up their twitter feeds; finding the people they like to follow, and browsing for new things, getting recommendations, and removing they stuff they don’t like. You can’t expect to match that level of content 10 mins after signing up on Mastodon. You will have to look around and tell it what you want to see before it will be what you want it to be.
The difference is that Twitter has suggestions and algorithms to help you find your way around. Mastodon is all manual.
“It goes way beyond money.”
LOL no it doesn’t.
I really wish X would sign Musks death warrant.
So they always say… and then keep reading and posting tweets all day every day.
How many times does he have to sign the warrant before it actually dies tho?
3 times, but he has to do it in front of a mirror. When he was about to do the third time he renamed it, thus resetting the counter.
Very Stable Genius v. 2.0
Wasn’t that the other idiot?

I’m betting no,
X I don’t care about.
Not seeing this shit in my feed constantly, now that would be nice.
I recently blocked /c/enoughmuskspam, which, ironically, was only musk spam
You can always just add his name as a filtering keyword. Tools are available to help you.
Starship launch tomorrow though, wouldn’t want to miss out on hype because of something titled “Elon Musk’s Starship Rocket” etc… I’m a big space nerd and while Elon is a dork this rocket will be a massive leap for everything space related if it works out.
Fuck X/Twitter though, sick of hearing about it for sure. I’ve heard rumours that SpaceX only does as well as they do because they have Shotwell running the show and they have Elon wranglers to keep him away from anything important…
Thanks for sharing. Feel free to blame Musk. He’s the one who renamed it to X, which is impossible to filter out.
You could filter out Twitter and realistically filter out a large chunk of them. Shit’s usually referred to “X, formerly known as Twitter…” in most posts I see.
Could just make a lemmy-wide rule to always deadname it in post titles. But good luck with that since people still won’t put it all in enoughmuskspam.
Pretty much, that’s my policy anyway. People still tweet there too, none of this “posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.” Fucker trying to use up more characters everywhere.
What is IBM advertising there?
Probably thinkpads or some enterprise stuff.
Thinkpads were sold off to Lenovo 18 years ago.
Huh. Thought IBM owned Lenovo.
Not at all. Always been a Chinese company. And I’m just now learning that IBM sold them their server business in 2014, and they also bought Motorola in the same year.
Which raises the question: What does IBM even do anymore?
Make people mad about Redhat.
*edit - s/made/mad😩
Is that beard to make him look younger? Because it looks like that beard you sometimes see on young guys figuring out that they can’t really grow a decent beard…
Hasn’t he blurted out stupid stuff his whole career without it causing any negative effects? Seems like that’s his thing and it seems like it’s been working for him pretty well. At least until now.

We can only hope. 👍
You think Saudi Arabia is just going to let their toy collapse? They shit the money it takes to run that site every day.
are the last horses just finishing the realization race? this was always his endgame
