I did check through the political memes community to see if tweets were good enough to be accepted, yeah it's not journalism, but this real life satire keeps writing itself.

 
 

Attorney, journalist, and Elon Musk biographer Seth Abramson eviscerated both Elon Musk and his “fanboys” who have attempted to use the billionaire’s IQ as an indication of his intellectual prowess in a series of messages shared on X Thursday evening and into Friday.

“Accountability must include, but cannot stop with, the firing of a few individuals. Their violence is not an anomaly; it is the product of a system steeped in impunity.”

Looks like a slap on the wrist and a serious talking to for these officers.

Leader of the free world: -"Right" -"Europe" -"Europe" -"There could be nothing bigger. There’s nothing —" -“That’s peanuts compared to what we’re talking about,” -“Including his ships. Including his ships going up.” -“Sean, you’re a... ”

Hannity: *dismissively - “This is important,” *continues to talk to Musk.

*Trump utterly humiliated rambles under his breath.

Who is the alpha here? What a joke not to mention Elon's talking points are 100% contradictory.

Now we have Citizens United and also Elon Musk, I guess—no disrespect to Bernie—but Musk, as the world’s wealthiest individual, he can influence political primaries through his vast fortune and control of powerful social media platforms. He is an oligarch to the endth degree. This is exemplified by his position as a close advisor to Trump and his ability to shape political discourse through his platform, X. Prove me wrong; hasn’t he already set the stage?

Yep that 24/7 round-the-clock construction and experience in Taiwan surely would contribute significantly to the difference.

As far as I know they do, they were offering it as a competitive rate and all when I signed up, but it wasn't a main concern for me. I know that you can use it and set a caller ID if you need to, the SMS function was a handy option for two factor checks so I went with them. I'd say as a Pay as you go option it was worth a try, although reading a few reviews online, some mentioned that the call clarity could be an issue, no problems here though.

Edit: after reading the other comments I'm going to take JMP for a spin

A week ago I went to use my Skype and was super frustrated to see that Microsoft took my credit balance, now Skype demands a subscription model. I tried a few other companies but the only one with a PAYG model that suited my basic needs was KeepCalling. I'm impressed with their prices, transparency (privacy model) and also it's been super easy to use so far.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Sheriff Kevin McMahill says Livelsberger sustained a gunshot wound to the head prior to the Cybertuck detonating; investigators believe it was self inflicted.

 
 

Ticketmaster and Live Nation have destroyed the concert experience. But it didn't use to be this way. Today, Oasis and Taylor Swift tickets might go for thousands of dollars, but back in 1955, you could see Elvis Presley in concert for less than the modern-day equivalent of $20.

 

Hi all, I'm looking into ways to protect my privacy while using WhatsApp, particularly in a professional setting where separating personal and work-related communications is crucial. I'm thinking of buying a dual SIM phone and am considering strategies to sandbox my personal contacts, pictures, and media from those associated with my work profile on WhatsApp.

Has anyone successfully done this using two SIM cards on the same device? I'm staunchly anti-Facebook and its obtrusive privacy-related practices, so ideally I want to prevent cross-contamination of personal and work-related data, including contacts, photos, and media shared through the app. Will this be a good strategy? Are there any known risks or precautions I should take to minimize the risk of my data being shared or accessed by third parties? - Thanks all, I'd appreciate any comments.
