He's being blunt, but his point is extremely valid.

Exactly this right here.

I am a woman and your opinion sucks. Just how many percentage of people who transitioned do you think compete in sport at professional level? That's a completely invalid reason to make it illegal for people to transition. You can disagree with having transitioned women compete in women sport, but it's a completely different matter from the anti human rights and freedom of choice view point to stop people who want to from transitioning. It's ridiculous this even need to be spelled out to you.

Moreover, this sounds like it stems from your insecurity more than anything, and I don't believe that is at all a valid reason for gate keeping people. And should I mention how you lump the whole LGBTQ in the issue you have with just transpeople? You're just hating (or conditioned to hate) and it's petty.

Let's go a step further, there are non binary people out there. Are you going to hate on them just because they are born that way? It's fucking stupid.

Lol, I can assure you he's not doing things right, and it's all luck and a lot of willingness to be an asshole. The achievements come from the passionate engineers and scientists.

At least the Dutch is already doing it.

For the purpose of this question, slow throughout. Also has to be something that can universally agreed as being slow, otherwise we're going to have to discuss at what point songs stop being fast or slow. I might as well throw in the word mellow to really push it.

It's probably more meaningful to ask at this point what data can he collects that he's not collecting.

On the other hand, I think Fediverse is perfect for companies that want to be closer to their customers, as rare as that may be.

Another possible use case if Fediverse become popular enough is potential for companies like Nintendo setting up their own instance as the new Miiverse or something.

Definitely smarter than the group that thinks Trump should be a president and tries to deny science at every turn. You don't need me to tell you which group it is that denied global warming, denied the existence of covid-19, denied universal healthcare, host the Nazis and white supremacists, and so on, do you?

And when confronted with these kinds of questions the typical reaction is to ignore it or make excuses rather than looking at their own group with insight. Any conservatives who think it's okay for Nazis and extremists to house themselves in their group might as well join them. Otherwise, stop making excuses and look at the problems.

Even before gaining control of Twitter, Musk would take a proactive approach to addressing criticism.

Back in 2018, The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk actively monitored Twitter for tweets containing the hashtag $TSLA, often used by Tesla short-sellers. Musk would reach out to executives at companies to investigate employees who were potentially publishing negative tweets about his electric vehicle company.

During that time, Musk reportedly emailed former Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess in July 2018, questioning whether one of Diess's employees was using Twitter to criticize Tesla anonymously. Business Insider later reported that Volkswagen determined the tweets were posted by the employee's brother.

Musk also allegedly texted Lawrence Fossi's employer. According to the WSJ, on July 23, 2018, Musk sent a text to the top executive at Fossi's company, asking the boss whether he knew his employee, known on Twitter as Montana Skeptic, "was obsessively trashing Tesla via a pseudonym," as disclosed in the report.

Straight from the article, for anyone wondering.

So much for free speech. The worst part is there will still be a brigades of mindless idiots and scumbags who will defend him.
