Fewer people are using Elon Musk’s X as the platform struggles to attract and keep users, according to analysts in c/[email protected]

My point is, look I'm a dumb white hick. I've never ran anything as significant as this. Just from the way the guy talks I can tell he has eons more experience than I do. His track record? Jesus Christ.

Still, if I were him I would've just.. stopped. Long, long ago.

Yet he hasn't. Admittedly, I'm a dumb fuck yet smart cookie compared to some but honestly what are the odds that with zero experience I could make better business decisions than this guy?

Make it make sense, ya know? Explain to me like I'm 5 why he would make decisions that are so obviously detrimental to the company? What are the odds that I could give better business advice than this guy?

Yet this is what he's doing. He's either purposely destroying it or has some weird master plan and I'm not sure I can be convinced otherwise tbh. We all see it, as bad as he seems to be there's no way he doesn't.

Honestly I feel like that killed Twitter more than many other changes.

People tell me "there's no way he (musk) would intentionally crash his own company - it makes no sense - "he's just terribly bad at business!"

But is he really THAT bad? In what world could these changes be made in which he's actively trying to improve the company? If nothing else, seeing the negative backlash, bad publicity and dropping number of users wouldn't any sound minded business owner at least temporarily undo some of these changes?

With any business, if you make a change that causes you to lose customers and get bad publicity.. don't you try to mitigate the damage done? Who goes balls to the wall on obviously bad decisions?

HP 15 bW032WM error eMMC malfunction (lemmy.world)
 

I'd really love to get this thing up and running! Just went black screen one day, can't access bios or anything.

Got an error message via the caps lock light that iirc traced back to Means eMMC - embedded multimedia card failure.

This is where my confusion comes in, web searches tell me this is for storage and came before SSD, was used on the first steam decks etc.

But the hard drive inside is a 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA according to HP and my eyes when I opened the case.

So I'm assuming, unfortunately that the embedded Radeon 7 graphics card is the eMMC the error is referring to?

Really hoping not because it's the most valuable part of the laptop to me right now. Assuming it is because the screen is black, can't access bios or anything.

If this is the case, am I 100% going to have to order and solder in a replacement or is there any way I could potentially save the eMMC/GPU?

It's finally here! (lemmy.world)
 

Left Reddit because of boost. Came to Lemmy for promises of boost. Now have Boost for Lemmy.

It is complete.

Also, it's everything I'd hoped for! I've been using a different Lemmy app every few weeks since leaving Reddit. Some weren't even functional. The remaining functional ones just weren't what I needed, comments didn't appear right, the keyboard constantly switched to the previous sentence and deleted words, etc it's just been one problem after another trying to use this platform.

Have been on Boost for Lemmy all of 5 minutes and it's like a blessing sent from heaven. Everything works as I need it to.

See how I went down from the last paragraph? On my last app (the best I'd found so far) that would mean about a minute of struggling to make it stop reverting to the last paragraph and deleting things. That isn't happening anymore and it feels great.

I have my options to italicize and embolden text back, right where I'm used to them.

It's just amazing, thanks Ruben I have been awaiting this release for a while.
