I wouldn’t be so sure about that. I feel like that’s just wishful thinking coming from folks who aren’t a fan of the man in charge. When you look at what Elon Musk has achieved with SpaceX, I’ll be very surprised if he can’t steer a social media platform into safer waters. I’m not on Twitter myself so thankfully I’m okay either way
Even if it's like 4 people, that's a 50% increase! Could the servers handle such a load, is the question.zazthespaz wrote: ↑Fri Nov 18, 2022 11:02 amInteresting thought, never considered that. Maybe a little bit more traffic from the bored clickers. Instead of "I'm bored, let me see what's happening on Twitter" they'll come to TABN instead? Probably a small amount of people, if any, though.
Have you heard about how 75% of Twitter employees did not agree to his ultimatum of hardcore work and accepted the severance package instead? Or how he locked the doors to the offices and disabled keycards?Dan Dando wrote: ↑Fri Nov 18, 2022 1:05 pmI wouldn’t be so sure about that.

https://twitter.com/ZoeSchiffer/status/ ... BFuRl2KMAwNEW: Twitter just alerted employees that effective immediately, all office buildings are temporarily closed and badge access is suspended. No details given as to why.
https://twitter.com/ZoeSchiffer/status/ ... BFuRl2KMAwWe’re hearing that a lot of Twitter employees have not signed Elon Musk’s hardcore job offer. Now, it appears he’s relaxing the remote work policy:
Sure, I’ve heard all the stories. But there’ll be plenty of people who will buy into his vision for Twitter going forward. So I don’t see any evidence that Twitter is going down the tubes, so to speak. I see plenty of evidence of disruption but not much more really.
I don't know, I feel like the board is really only populated with those of us who have been around for a while. I don't know if today's social media normies have the patience for a relatively slow moving forum. We're a relic from the before times.zazthespaz wrote: ↑Fri Nov 18, 2022 11:02 amInteresting thought, never considered that. Maybe a little bit more traffic from the bored clickers.

I can attest to that. As a young member of this board, I sometimes get frustrated when nobody posts on here for a relatively short time (which feels like a long time to me).TenaciousBe wrote: ↑Fri Nov 18, 2022 9:58 pmI don't know, I feel like the board is really only populated with those of us who have been around for a while.

With inflation up and a recession around the corner, long term bonds can be a whole lot safer than index funds, especially if you pick an area that is more likely to suffer in an economic downturn.anguyen92 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 23, 2022 8:14 pm So in my journey to being more of a responsible adult, when it comes to financial health, the next step is for me to finally get into investing into something. I have no idea where to start. I think a safe bet is to invest few thousand into some low-cost Index Funds and go from there. I do have a 401k, so that's good news.
That's a nice...graph.

Was that one of the shows Mariah Formica played? I am still waiting to see Plush live. Just hasn't worked out yet.
I never pay attention to who are the vocalists for the TSO West legs aside from Jeff Scott Soto, who always does an excellent job in This Christmas Day, but recalling the band introductions, I did hear that they had a new vocalist for this tour. I didn't know it was the vocalist of Plush. And yes, I did watch Plush open for Halestorm and Evanescence last year at the back half of their set and they were good.
