X is still such a stupid fucking name. I feel cringe saying that.

[–] InternetUser2012@lemmy.today 52 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I won't. It will always be twitter, and he bought it because people made fun of him.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

He offered to buy it as a joke, and was forced to finish the transaction because he had taken it too far by actually signing contracts and putting money down. He was gonna go "Just kidding" and pull out, but then the courts told him that this already constituted a legally binding sell and if he tried to back out now he'd go to jail for fraud.

That sounds like the courts are fucking stupid and ill-prepared to do their jobs.

As long as twitter.com redirects there, it's twitter 👐

[–] Pika@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's very "hacking, trenchcoats, and Muse are cool" isn't it?

Like, yeah. Obviously this guy thought of it...

[–] yemmly@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What did Muse do to deserve this?

[–] brambc@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I want to know but am afraid to search for it… I liked Muse but havent lept up with their recent works.

Other than Matthew banging all the models and the bassist getting help for alcoholism, I don't know of any other news, other than they are fuckin rad!

X11 is such a great name. Imagine instead of x.com opening x.org.

[–] moon@lemmy.cafe 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I always just hear it referred to as xorg, which I pronounce "x-org"

[–] zewm@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I like saying it like “zorg”

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

"The ever efficient flamethrower. My favorite."

[–] bi_tux@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

I pronounce it "the 2nd best windowing system currently used by GNU/Linux users"

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

I always pronounce the dot.
