Elon Musk says it's his turn to have the remote

[Xitter] just announced a smart TV app for streaming video. Or, more accurately, that it claims it’s building one, with absolutely no launch date mentioned. The appropriately-named [Xitter] TV wants to be “your go-to companion for a high-quality, immersive entertainment experience on a larger screen.”

beefbot,

You made some giant deal about Musk odor being shunted to the business section but here this is. BARELY qualified as tech news because IT’S HIM. He’s nothing but futureware & farts.

PUT EVERYTHING MUSK INTO YOUR BUSINESS SECTION SO WE DON’T GOTTA FUUUICKIN SEE IT. CHRIST

olutukko,

I’m going to call it “coughshitter” because that’s what it sounds like

Let me guess, the streaming services on it will be like DailyWire+, PragerU. What else

bitchkat,

He didn’t get the Twitter app for Roku when he bought them? I remember having to install that app to watch some NFL game or something.

MonkderDritte,

Musk probably wanted to create something like WeChat, so that he has all the power.

Cqrd,

He’s blatantly stated as much before. He wants Twitter to be the everything app, the WeChat of the US

With all his meddling it’s not even the Twitter of the US anymore

Telodzrum,

He’s been saying it since the 90s. His “X App” is just the latest iteration of his want to create an all-encompassing “X” platform for everything from dating to banking.

I’m just here to watch Phony Stark continue to light money on fire.

Quetzalcutlass,

A smart TV app from the guy who pulled Disney channels from the Tesla app due to a bruised ego over a Twitter argument? I can’t wait for this to crash and burn.

Substance_P,

Xitter, nice name, sounds like an adolescent skin condition.

Ostrichgrif,

I always mentally read that as “shitter”

Mbourgon,

That’s the goal. (Unsure of sarcasm)

beefbot,

unsubscribe elon musk

Buffalox,

Yeah that probably works about as well as unsubscribing from cat facts.

NeoNachtwaechter,

We are back at “Elon says” posts :-(

Buffalox, (edited )

Yeah, because he is funny, and he is probably the person who knows most about production living on earth today.
I like how he is modest enough to acknowledge there might be aliens that know more than him. /s

helpImTrappedOnline,

Your /s wasn’t not big enough, I got you

/s

Buffalox,

I don’t think you are riled up enough considering the importance of the issue. /s

Buffalox,

Yeah lol it’s crazy, but he actually said that., except I didn’t get the wording 100% right, he didn’t even say “probably”:

radiant_bloom,

If it integrates properly with tv that will be one thing better than Netflix at least…

In 12 months when he gets called on it by debtors (since Shitter has no shareholders) he’ll try to buy Pluto TV and claim that was the plan the whole time.

ME5SENGER_24,

When is this guy gonna go bankrupt? Before he even starts his channel I’m already tired of his shit show

Buffalox,

Musk is all over the place lately, claiming his Xai bots are doing practical work in the factory already, and will be ready for mass deployment “next year”, Which ought to be his nick name now. “Next year Musk”.
He also claimed a few days ago that robo-taxis were only months away.
New model cars from Tesla planned to arrive next year, should be moved up to arrive this year instead.
The man must be desperate or on coke or probably both, he has always over-promised and under delivered, but these latest promises are over the top even for him.

billiam0202,

coke

He’s on ketamine.

Buffalox,

Noo that can’t be it, he has said it’s prescribed and only a low dosis. /s
Whatever he is on, I definitely don’t want it, seems he is getting more and more crazy.

Bartsbigbugbag,

Fully functional robotic taxis are already here, they’re just not made by western companies. It’s doubtful musks will ever work at this point, his “fully-automated self-driving” is vaporware.

pivot_root,

Every time he says “this year” or “next year,” it’s at least 4 years away. He’s so full of shit that even his internal clock stinks.

slimarev92,

Get ready for new shows starring Ben Shapiro and Gina Carano, or whatever right wing loser they manage to attract.

Get ready for the Hard R channel. It's just straight up racism 24/7

Half of America: why am I suddenly erect?

billiam0202,

No, the Daily Liar is already trying to push into mass entertainment. It’s more likely to have Fucker Carlson and Alex “I need money to pay my civil judgements for my lies about Sandy Hook” Jones.
