@CoachK_8 @Rog973521 @RykerJackson97 Yeah…representation of Easter and the story seems pretty normal.

@Rog973521 @RykerJackson97 This was hung in the hallways of meetinghouses when I was a little kid. We've always had artwork about the crucifixion.

@rcwhiteley @Brave_Trades @USA_Polling The wealth tax in CA is taxing their voting power %. I wonder why…it’s the clearest marxist signal to own production I can see.
English
@Brave_Trades @USA_Polling I've come up with a solution, tax the wealth/shares, but let them retain voting control.
Having $200B or $100B shares of a company ultimately doesn't make much difference, but they can retain control of what they've built.
English
I'm a big fan of the idea that once you hit a billion dollars, you get a plaque in a park saying that you won at capitalism and everything you make over a billion is taxed at 100%

BREAKING: Elon Musk’s odds of becoming a trillionaire this year hits 82% — a record high.
English
@Brave_Trades @USA_Polling They should be able to borrow against assets, but should be taxed on that transaction.
English
Force them to go public??? You still don’t understand what shares mean. You would need to force them to be acquired and paid with cash in order to make them liquid.
Private to public still has the same problem with losing voting rights and control over board and company decisions.
English
@Brave_Trades @USA_Polling Force them to sell the company to the public market, then tax it. Duh. I don’t think it’s a good idea. But it’s not particularly complicated
English
@Linzwhitney @CatholicCharm If snape is black…isn’t the point that Harry worrying about him just as normal as a white guy? It doesn’t matter. If snape were originally black and then made white you’d be upset as well.
You are mad just to be mad.
English
@CatholicCharm How much do you want to bet that there will be additional dialogue, not found in the books, that’s going to take that as an opportunity to get on a soapbox about exactly that? 🙄
English
The series is gonna be about Harry being suspicious of and hating the only black teacher at Hogwarts. That’ll go swimmingly
Derek Anderson-The D.A.@derekbwriting
Let's be clear. There's a lot of issues with this HBO Harry Potter series. Extra unnecessary added details, pointless raceswaps of minor characters that I, like many other Potterheads, could have overlooked. But Black Snape is such an insulting slap in the face it's a 100% deal breaker.

@elonmusk @tavi_chocochip How? I don’t see it. Do people actually use it?
Grok is great. Not sure what to do with Imagine and I made videos every day.
English
@tavi_chocochip It is a more important tool than people realize
English
Still trying to figure out why this is so important to Elon
Elon Musk@elonmusk
The next @Grok Imagine release will be epic. We are doubling down.

Hey boss, what happened to 𝕏 being the Internet Town square, what happened to free speech, what happened to free exchange of ideas.
Stop telling me what content I can post. Great commentary can come from any region.

Starting Thursday, we'll be updating our revenue sharing incentives to better reward the content we want on X: We will be giving more weight to impressions from your home region—to encourage content that resonates with people in your country, in neighboring countries and people who speak your language. While we appreciate everyone's opinion on American politics, we hope this will disincentivize gaming the attention of US or Japanese accounts and instead, drive diverse conversations on the platform. We invite creators to start building an audience locally. X will be a much richer community when there's relevant posts for people in all parts of the world.
English
So you propose banning them? I’m not quite sure what you propose with “a better application review”.
I agree I don’t need all the details. But I think changing the incentive is for the good. I’m not a fan if pay for impressions in general but I understand why it’s still the metric.
English
I can't go into detail, but most of these accounts that you're talking about are run by the same people same botnets. They're easy to identify with internal tools, this guy is not selling the truth. Quite frankly, if Creator revenue is the issue, then perhaps better application review and auditing is the solution.

@Whachutryin2say @BaronBoehm @AutismCapital Yes. Imagine is just the 6-10 seconds video maker. It just uses compute power from Grok. I don’t see the value: it like Sora.
English
@twalkerp @BaronBoehm @AutismCapital Grok is different than Imagine? I kinda figured they’d have the same backend
English
English
@twalkerp @BaronBoehm @AutismCapital It may be behind. It may be useless. That wasn’t my point. I’m simply saying it isn’t going anywhere. It’s not going to be going “away”.
English
@shiri_shh Yes. grok imagine should go too. Focus resources on more important compute. Grok can be better…
English
OpenAl didn’t kill SORA.. they cut it to survive what’s coming next.
Sora videos looked magical, but behind every clip was massive compute burn, legal risk, and almost zero real revenue.
so they made a shift.
compute is being pulled out of experiments and pushed into chatgpt, codex, and tools that people use daily.
they need hundreds of billions. compute, infrastructure, talent, all of it at insane scale.
so something had to go.
Sora@soraofficialapp
We’re saying goodbye to the Sora app. To everyone who created with Sora, shared it, and built community around it: thank you. What you made with Sora mattered, and we know this news is disappointing. We’ll share more soon, including timelines for the app and API and details on preserving your work. – The Sora Team
English
Common mistake; thinking valuation equals security.
Elon has admitted grok is behind x.com/cb_doge/status…
I think the latest “R” rating for imagine is purely to pump numbers for boobs because he needs to show better metrics. We all know beta vs VHS story.
I use grok the most. But imagine is useless. It’s pretty. But it’s useless. Sora was useless. Of all the AI stuff created; imagine and Sora and moving images are pretty lame. GIFs are more valuable IMO.

ELON MUSK: "Grok is currently behind in coding. The reason I was late for this was that I was just in a giant sort of all hands on coding, going through all the things that need to happen to essentially exceed our competitors on coding, which I think we'll do. I feel we should probably get there by the middle of this year."
English
@twalkerp @BaronBoehm @AutismCapital xAI had a recent valuation of $200 billion. Imagine isn’t going anywhere.
English
@BaronBoehm @AutismCapital I do like grok. But I doubt this is the case. I will bet grok imagine goes away too.
English
@AutismCapital Makes sense. And grok imagine shoukd stop too. Sorry Elon…
