Someone tell that to the stock price.

Yeah, but there are morons who will still vote for her because they won't admit they were wrong about her. This is how the MAGA cult started in America.

We Found Widespread Abuse of Disabled Patients at an Illinois Facility. The DOJ Is Investigating. in c/news@lemmy.world

Trump's DoJ will likely conclude that there isn't enough abuse happening.

A Trump H-1B crackdown could hit Big Tech hard, with Amazon suffering most. in c/technology@lemmy.world

"H-1B crackdown"? They wanted more H-1B people because it's essentially slave labor, especially now that deportations are ramped up.

If it weren't for H-1B, Musk would have been left with no staff for Twitter.

This is some weird doublespeak because make no mistake, Trump and Musk are only going to try to increase H-1B labor.

Musk’s X suspends opposition accounts in Turkey amid civil unrest in c/technology@lemmy.world

Ah, so Turkey is who gave Twitter $1bn recently.

She hoped Trump would revive her farm. Now she worries his policies could bankrupt it. in c/news@lemmy.world

Why does it feel like Elon is artificially boosting his companies? (programming.dev)
 

Tesla dealerships are getting protested and, in some cases, vandalized. Sales are down on 9 of the top 10 countries Tesla sells in. Yet Tesla stock is up. Twitter is a cesspool of nazi-themed bots, and somehow just pulled in $1bn and raised its valuation back up to $44bn.

How is any of this possible? It seems really artificial to me, but I don't really understand business.

WSJ: Musk Set to Receive Top-Secret Briefing on U.S. War Plans for China in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] kn0wmad1c@programming.dev 21 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

SpaceX and xAI, two of Musk's other companies, appear to have been receiving a lot of funding from Chinese backers on the secondary markets. It's part of the reason Elon started spewing the "Taiwan is a part of China" nonsense.

Bro could not be more conflicted in interest here.

All these Trump ass-kissers are doing it for pardons.

Trump says he’ll buy a Tesla to support Elon Musk, whose companies are struggling (www.cnn.com)
 

Typical market manipulation move. He'll probably announce something regarding bitcoin and the federal reserve today to artificially bump that up too.

How do we login to Pixelfed with our programming.dev account? (programming.dev)
 

It looks like each instance wants an instance-specific login, but my federated account is searchable, so I should be able to link it. Problem is, I can't figure out how.

Help me, programming.dev

I made a programming.dev Firefox extension, but could use some help/feedback (programming.dev)

Hey all, I made a Firefox extension (signed by Mozilla) specifically to add Show/Hide Child Comments functionality similar to how RES had it (where the parent comment is still visible).

It's not very useful, but I could use some feedback on tightening up the Javascript. I'm not a JS beginner, but I know I can do better, so any tips are welcome!

EDIT: Also, if anyone has any suggestions for the extension, I'm open to those as well.

Is there a way to set "All" as the default view instead of "Subscribed"? (programming.dev)
 

Installed yesterday and immediately went ad-free. It's such a beautiful app.

Anyway, question is in the title.

Ahead of July 1, should we try to make a guide for redditors on how to use Lemmy? (programming.dev)
 

I'm new myself but took the time to learn the platform. I'm not sure other people will have as much of an interest, so I'm just wondering if it would be a good idea for some of the old hat people to post some tips for people coming over from reddit.
