Basically, Musk is alleging is that they claimed this was a common practice when it was, in fact, extremely rare.

In his tweet about this he said that out of 5.5 **billion ** ad impressions that day, less than 50 were objectionable according to Media Matter’s criteria. In other words, there was a 1 in 100 million chance that a normal user would randomly see something like this.

For comparison, the following things have about a 1 in a million chance of happening (i.e. are 100 times more likely):

• flipping a coin 20 times, getting tails every single time
• winning the PowerBall lottery if you buy six tickets a week for a year
• a devastating earthquake occurring in Seattle within the next 5 hours

I just read the MM piece and it doesn’t appear to make any specific claims about how frequently this might have happened, it merely says “We recently found ads for Apple, Bravo, Oracle, Xfinity, and IBM next to posts that tout Hitler and his Nazi Party on X.” and that “X has been placing ads for Apple, Bravo, IBM, Oracle, and Xfinity next to pro-Nazi content.” which does indeed appear to be factual since it makes no claims about frequency, so I guess we’ll see if the court is convinced that it was defamatory. It certainly seems to be the truth, but not the whole truth.

If it turns out they really DID have to create 100 million page views in order to find a single questionable ad placement, and they failed to mention that, you could make the case that they were intentionally trying to hurt his business.

Yes, I believe that’s the allegation made in the lawsuit, that they intentionally manipulated the algorithm in order to engineer this ad placement.

Planned release date: Jan 5, 2024 :/

Hitman 2. Now working on the third. It’s alright, I loved the first one, but it’s starting to get a bit boring/repetitive. The new freelancer mode in Hitman 3 seems somewhat interesting, but overall, there’s been very little change or improvement between the games. They are fascinating at first, but if you play too long you start noticing all the weird glitches in the simulation that break immersion and can either be exploited or just ruin the experience.

They were already monetizing your data, just like websites were already using cookies to track you before the EU made it mandatory to inform visitors about this.

I’m sorry you don’t like having fun. Must be rough.

No, that’s measuring in 9/11 retaliations.

Unless you audited the code or encrypted the files yourself, I wouldn’t trust it.

Whatever helps you sleep at night, I guess.

Right, so Israel already killed almost 3 times as many Palestinians in retaliation as the US killed in Iraq.

Okay, but does that invalidate my calculation?

An imagined scenario would be worse than reality

I was good at math and bad with people.

Gamers: “we want photorealistic 3D graphics in 4K resolution!”

Also gamers: “why do games take up so much space these days?”

How very patriotic of you. Good day sir.

But Israel claimed that the Hamas attacks were equal to 9/11 or even Pearl Habor in scale measured by the country’s population. Biden even claimed that it was equal to fifteen 9/11s. So I think it’s totally fair and appropriate to apply the same rules and scale the death toll of the invasion by the population of the Gaza Strip.

Still no mean tweets tho

Don’t forget, if you disapprove of this, you are antisemitic and therefore a Nazi.

What do you mean, he is in jail, isn’t he? Probably high security in case someone desires to shank him.
