Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
This article is claiming Starlink is keeping Ukraine connected despite Russian attempts to jam the satellites. It is my understanding that the board of directors of Twitter does not want Mr. Musk airing the dirty laundry of its past actions. Unfair censorship tactics per se.

Per Ardua ad Astra
Gab has been asking for a couple billion from Elon to make it the defacto free speech platform for months but has been ignored.
Truth social launch was terrible and soured the user base. DWAC suffered greatly after the decision not to merge losing 2/3rds of market value since the beginning of march.
A billionaire with a wild hair up his ass to buy a global social media platform is unrealistic without serious scrutiny from many areas.
He doesn?t care about the free speech unless it benefits him. He has verifiably censored media about his products more than once.
Elons business endeavors thrive with media attention. If he keeps his name in the headlines it?s free marketing.
Shout out to the volatility he provides. I have made solid
Moneys this week with Tesla earnings calls yesterday followed buy puts today and both calls and puts on twitter this week.

My feedback add 11-12 ish before the great servpocaylpse of 2012
Ol' Musk put together a buyout bid at $46.5B with backing, pledging 33.5B of his own money, and threatening to put the question directly to the Twitter shareholders if the board balks again.

Astrophysics isn't what I read into with the title
Sounds like the board accepted the deal
Which by default means they declined my offer…Originally Posted by 00tec

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Haw haw haw?..
Twitterverse meltdown in 3, 2, 1...
Seen on twitter, "I'm quitting twitter!" is the new "If Trump wins, I'm moving to Canada!"
IOW, they'll all be back online in a week screeching the same garbage.
My Feedback
Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
I hear Twitter has an office in Boulder. If I could stand Boulder, I'd love to just go and "bird" watch. Of course, I can't, so I won't.
Elon moves fast. I was thinking he'd let the stock price melt down for another week before solidifying the acquisition. I was still contemplating jumping in and buying some shares for immediate profit when the news came out and price skyrocketed.
Dang. Should've bought Twitter. Just was busy.
And Elon is smart...
You could put 60 billion into some purported "free speech platform" and you'd be wasting about 59.5 billion of your investment.
Just because you can build something doesn't mean you can get anyone to use it. Buy out what they use, and you solve problem #1. Then, you can address #2 with users that remain, and maybe #3 bring new users back.
It is akin to trying to build a "new windows operating system" to compete with Microsoft. It would be REALLY stupid to invest 50 billion into that. They could make something that works perfectly and still only capture 10% or less of market share, because people keep using what they already know.
Buy out Microsoft though, then rebuild it, and you have a viable chance to be the industry leader with your vision with OS going forward. Same/Same.
