[00:07:48] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> Hot gossip, fresh off the press: inside sources say that only ~20% of employees agreed to Elon's death march ultimatum.
[00:07:49] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> 
[00:07:50] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> Which would put them at...~600 employees to run a company + infrastructure with Just shy of 400 million users?
[00:08:23] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <raidarr> I'm not shocked, I don't see how virtually anything elon has done would be appealing to anyone who cares about the company
[00:18:29] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Gummiel> And even most of the ppl who "agreed" I would suspect have done so out of financial needs
[00:19:38] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <raidarr> well yes, it's hard to try and fight with the person who provides for your livelihood unless you have a damn good plan for getting a job elsewhere
[01:57:22] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> Welp.  They deactivated ALL badges and locked employees out of the building until the 21st.  Also, Twitter's servers are allegedly majority on-prem.  The chances of a catastrophic failure before Monday just rose drastically.
[02:03:57] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <raidarr> yeah, hence kinda wanting to discourage twitter for updates at the moment :p
[02:04:03] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <raidarr> it would be deeply ironic to depend on it at this moment
[02:26:05] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Agent> what a mess
[02:26:30] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Agent> Time to move back to Pictochat
[02:27:00] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Agent> would be interesting to see if people move to Mastodon
[02:27:11] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Agent> I'd consider it
[02:29:54] <MacFan4000>	 I created https://mastodon.social/@miraheze for us just in case
[02:29:58] <MirahezeBot>	 [url] Miraheze (@miraheze@mastodon.social) - Mastodon | mastodon.social
[02:46:27] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> I joined on at home.social, haven't done much with it yet.
[06:02:33] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Legroom> I was looking at mastadon back in 2018 w/ great tumblr purge lol
[06:03:05] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Legroom> didn't really appeal to me tbh, the need to register several accounts and personal data safety concerns
[06:03:55] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Legroom> on other hand, artists are getting back to tumblr, nature is healing
[06:09:04] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> Yeah, recent necessities have upped the security situation there, though it's still a bit hit or miss depending on which server you're federated from.
[06:10:09] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> While I'm all about the idea of a decentralized social platform that can't fall prey to capital capture as easily... well, there's still some practicalities that aren't quite solved yet.
[06:10:42] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> Yeah, recent necessities have upped the security situation there, though privacy and security are still a bit hit or miss depending on which server you're federated from. (edited)
[06:49:02] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Reception123> Wow, Twitter seems like such a mess right now (I know that's a bit ironic coming from a volunteer at Miraheze)
[06:56:08] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Zppix> I mean… it sounds like we will be better off shortly 😂
[06:57:25] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Reception123> well it's hard for me to believe that Elon would just let his billion dollar investment shut down and lose everything
[06:57:31] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Reception123> but asking people to work 80 hours per week will do that...
[06:57:40] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Zppix> I guess well find out
[06:59:58] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Legroom> he fucked around and found out
[07:00:19] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Legroom> I was looking at mastadon back in 2018 during the great tumblr purge lol (edited)
[07:02:22] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> The consensus of several smart (but slightly inebriated) bar trivia folks is one of the following:
[07:02:23] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> 
[07:02:24] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> 1. Elon just wants no more twitter at any cost, and is having fun with the destruction.
[07:02:26] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> 2. Elon's trying to crash it for tax writeoffs/end of liability
[07:02:27] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> 3. Elon continues to be in an untreated manic depressive episode and is making Bad F***ing Choices
[07:02:28] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> 4. Elon's being compensated by Generic Cranky World Power to destroy it
[07:02:58] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> A melange of 1 through 3 seem very plausible
[07:04:22] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <Reception123> lol yes, it's not like he doesn't have experience running companies but apparently in his other ones he also makes people work very long hours and things like that
[07:11:59] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> The alternate hypothesis there is that he had more folks saying no in other companies. Regardless, it was a real bad time there by all recent reports and now at twitter to.
[07:12:00] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> 
[07:12:02] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> Eh, off to bed with me, I need my hours logged before having further thoughts on this.
[07:12:14] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> The alternate hypothesis there is that he had more folks saying no in other companies. Regardless, it was a real bad time there by all recent reports and now at twitter too.  Eh, off to bed with me, I need my hours logged before having further thoughts on this. (edited)
[07:12:36] <mhbridgebot>	 [discord] <NotAracham> The alternate hypothesis there is that he had more folks saying no in other companies but was equally tyrannical. Regardless, it was a real bad time there by all recent reports and now at twitter too.  Eh, off to bed with me, I need my hours logged before having further thoughts on this. (edited)
