Oh shit, is he also going to sue me because I stopped using Twitter since he took over? TIL it's illegal to stop using Elon's products.

I didn’t check out any of your posts. I was making a point about the “safe and stable” stockmarket vs the “volatile and dangerous” cryptomarket.

We're talking about currencies, not stocks, but I'm not surprised that crypto bros think their imaginary coins an somehow both appreciate in value like an investment while also being stable enough to use as a currency.

They should recommend switching to Firefox instead. It's clear that Google cannot be allowed to have a monopoly on browsers.

Creeping my posts form days ago? That isn't weird or anything. I'm guessing you're trying to make a point in there somewhere, but you'll have to point it out to me.

Why would I "go after" an industry producing something useful, rather than grifters powering GPUs to do absolutely nothing of value? We can get to the glass industry once we've culled the useless garbage first.

No, because the rest of us have to deal with the environmental destruction wrought by your virtual paperclip maximizer. it affects everyone.

No, no, hear them out. It's actually super great that when you walk into the grocery store the loaf of bread is $1.50, and by the time you walk to the bread aisle it's $0.72, and by the time you walk to the cashier it's $2.10. This is actually super great, because there's also a medium country's worth of electricity being consumed to enable that.

"Ignore the glaring flaws and look only at the parts I tell you to" is great fiscal policy and inspires a lot of trust. You nerds are basically sending PGP emails to each other and pretending it's money. It isn't — it's literally nothing.

Look at my totally stable store of currency bro, trust me bro, this is totally useful as a means of exchange and you can trust in its future value bro, just believe me.

I bought AMD at $8/share (and am still holding it)

Wow, I'd have dropped that hot potato ages ago.

Brutal, nearly the lowest since 2008. Makes me want to buy in at this point.

Edit: I bought a few shares, so now they're sure to go bankrupt by tomorrow.

Edit 2: ayyy did I actually catch a falling knife for once? It's still going up after hours.

It's the opposite; you own it, but Reddit also have rights to it.
