I might be wrong on this.

I always forget the time difference, because they have different time zones in America.

It may be 1am.

Usually things use Eastern time here and Central listed secondary

[Elon Musk's interview of Republican presidential
candidate Donald Trump was marred by
technical issues that the tech billionaire
blamed on a cyber attack.

The lengthy conversation, which Mr Musk
said was aimed at “open-minded independent voters”,
began more than 40 minutes late as
many users struggled to gain access.

Mr Musk, who owns X, formerly Twitter,
said a distributed denial of services (DDoS) attack
"saturated all of our data lines".

Near the end of the two-hour conversation,
he doubled down on his endorsement of Trump
and called on moderate voters to back
the Republican's campaign.

“Here’s to an exciting, inspiring future
that people can look forward to and be
optimistic and excited about what
happens next," Mr Musk said.]

I'm listening to it. The stuff about what was going on with individual officers and SS involved was interesting, their injuries, reaction time, etc. (Nothing controversial)

[Alf]

So I fell asleep and woke up at about 2am. I put it on and they were talking about the border for about 45 minutes and I fell asleep again.

I haven't watched up yet with what went down, I went to the seaside today and I'm still there (it's my day off work)

Did they talk about the tyranny in the UK under Kier Stalin?

[Alf]

Elon seemed to have a stutter (maybe he was nervous in front of thr Messiah)

He was stuttering and some uncontrollable laughing from the 45 minutes I heard. The Don did try to hold back and let Elon speak, but Elon seemed to struggle. And that was friendly. Because The Don does like to speak.

He has Aspergers, but can't say the way he spoke stuck out enough to have been bothersome. I would rather someone take their time to form cohesive and considered responses than constantly firing at the hip in a narcissistic manner. Trump did some of that kind of rambling, but he usually does better during slower interviews. And to be honest, most anyone would do better in situations where they are less rushed and don't have to get their back up in response. I like the way Elon put it, is that nobody is who they really are when they give those types of interviews

(I am still getting through it btw. I am running errands today)

Yeah. Nothing against him. I only caught 45 minutes of it. I just didn't know that Musk had this impediment. I don't think any more or less from him for it, it was just a surprise to me hearing it for the first time.

If Alf couldn't get through this without falling asleep, I don't think the rest of the world stands a chance .

[user104658]

Interesting theory: I have a very strong suspicion that, for financial reasons that are beyond me (I suspect "billionare finances" are a dark and mysterious world) Musk has been actively trying to tank Twitter since he bought it. He's repeatedly done things that should, on paper, be actively harmful to the platform. But it never seems to work.

Now it feels like he's aligning with some questionable content and it's resulting in people pulling ads and, in my opinion, X is probably hurtling towards serious restrictions or even being banned in the western world (and thus, effectively, globally) so a guaranteed crash landing. I think he regrets buying it, I think he wants rid of it.

I honestly just don't see a normal human being in any way concerned with normal human events. I see one of the richest individuals in the world doing "weird business stuff" and manipulating markets. I don't think it can continue indefinitely.

[James]

People are under-appreciating how much Elon being on the autistic spectrum effects how he behaves on Twitter / X.

I mean we have experience if dealing with that on here.

here is a question, if Musk can't get a simple stream working after failing miserably with the previous event, who is going to trust his brain implant technology or his tourist trips into space

He's just a figurehead fortunately, "a visionary" I'm sure he'd term it himself. He's not the man doing any of the maths, design or engineering. Just gets a heck of a lot of credit and a HECK of a lot of $$$ on other people's brainpower.

Don't get me wrong I doubt he's "dumb", you don't become a billionaire by accident, but he's not a genius-level scientist by any measure.

Are there any segments worth watching/listening to?

The most interesting thing about either of them is how much people chimp out over them, but that doesn't mean I want to sit through a longform conversation of theirs.

Anything to trigger hate-boners from the loonies?

Yes,
Elon was silly to make it 2 Hours.


All of the points
would fit in 60mins

Yes,
but no one is doing them.
