I’d assume that militaries have access to other satellite communication providers, but need devices specific for those.

It's Elon, he's probably intentionally throttling the site so he can get his cultists further behind him. I give it a few more weeks before he outright begs those cultists to buy Tesla's to "own the libs".

It's for the best: the latest dumb MAGA trend I've noticed on there is claiming Canada / UK never stormed the beaches of Normandy, it was all USA. It got a fair bit of traction too. Just the worst people ever.

Tesla down 15% today and 40% on the year. There is a reason business execs stay far away from politics.

If true that’d be dumber than transgender mice — my current favourite stupid MAGAt claim.

Twitter, if you do a search you'd find it. Saw a lot of it late last week, didn't want to put it in here until it got bumped itself. I don't wanna go digging through Twitter looking for that crap, but its there.

You will need to wait until it works again though.

It’s been working all morning. Any service interruption was brief.

The funny thing about Tesla is it's prime customers are on the left. Rednecks aren't buying electric cars. So Musk is pissing off his main customer base.

LOL. Russian agent Musk says it's IP addresses in Ukraine attacking X. I presume he heard this from Putin, and is just passing the message on.
