  • Musk previously owned an online banking site known as x.com, which would later merge with PayPal, another service founded by Musk, which then became a separate entity with Musk no longer being involved it.

    And when Musk was forced to complete the purchase of Twitter, he announced plans to make Twitter into a “Super app” like China’s WeChat application, which can be used for payments.

    Musk’s hyperfocus on X might also be because when he was in his twenties, everything “cool” was having an X in it, like XForce and stuff like that.

    He also wanted to create his X Corp company to have a single X as its name, but he couldn’t do that because there was an Alphabet company already using that name.


  • I’d like to have a logo edit / sbubby sub.

    Also, some niche ones that aren’t there yet (AFAIK):

    buildapc : PC building help

    SavageGarden / carnivorousplants: subs aimed towards tending bug-eating plants

    hardwaregore / firmwaregore / softwaregore / technope : subs based around faulty hardware and firmware, sometimes destroyed hardware, or badly designed software

    cablefail : pictures of bad cable management and the chaos of cabling in general

    itsaunixsystem : sub based on overly fake or wrong tech in the media

    PBSOD : faulty kiosks and such displaying error messages in the open

    spicypillows / spicybricks : sub based on the pictures of swollen batteries of any kind, with the “bricks” being UPS batteries

    dankpods / battrees : Australian youtuber who yells at several portable music gadgets and headphones, the battrees one being pictures of off-brand batteriesc, mostly PKCell batteries, but can also be several others as well.

    techsupportmacgyver : instances of crazy fixes that ended up working

    termux : sub for the Termux project

    ITRage (likely a replacement for iiiiiiitttttttttttt) : information technology-related rage posts

    headphones : not sure if there’s a sub there for headphones and IEM related stuff so I guess there could be one.

    justrolledintotheshop : automotive repair shop employee’s findings when working on vehicles

    Another, much more niche music, streaming and TV-related:

    kpop : for Korean music news and updates, discussion (with objective viewpoint)

    kdrama : news and updates about Korean drama series, reviews, discussion

    kdramarecommends : recommendations for Korean drama series

    trigger (or maybe studiotrigger) : discussion and updates on anime made by Studio Trigger

    webtoons : webtoon series discussion

    animemusic : sharing music featured in anime series

    This all I could get from the top of my head currently.
