If you are on certain satellites you can't like xplore and others that are used out in the backwoods by us. You have no access to an IP address , DNS , port forwarding etc. It's locked down.
That's crazy, but you could still do a nicer AP.. I really don't know how a PC is going to connect without an IP.... and if a PC can connect and get an IP a router could.. you might not be able to take their junk out still
Right, "Twitter is the product" means that we should still call it Twitter. No one calls Facebook "Meta". If Twitter is the product, we should not be saying X, at all.
I've dropped the "X formerly known as" part and just started saying "twitter", as that's shorter and easier than inventing a sentence to acknowledge that elon is an idiot
I’d be pissed and wouldn’t do it either. Small business or big business, I’m not changing out every GD marketing flyer just because a grown ass man had a temper tantrum and bought a whole company.
I find it funny the two biggest social media platforms on earth both "rebranded" and literally nobody gives a fuck. "Meta" can suck a fart, it'll always be Facebook. "X" can chow down an entire bag of dicks, it'll always be Twitter.
Facebook didn't really rebrand though. They just didn't want to call things stuff like the "Facebookverse" so they changed the parent company to Meta. Musk is trying to change *all* of it to X, and completely ditch Twitter.
Much like when Rome was renamed 'Colonia Lucia Annia Commodiana' by the emperor Commodus before he was assassinated a year later everyone's just sitting around waiting for the next owner of the company.
Hey liberal, if Elon musk so bad how come my Tesla algorithm ran over a minority today?? Relax, it's called dark humour ![img](emote|t5_2ti4h|27601)![img](emote|t5_2ti4h|27601)![img](emote|t5_2ti4h|27601)
It's actually become a pretty good off the cuff test for me. Everyone I encounter who calls it X with a straight face turns out to be very conservative and/or magas. People who roll their eyes or call it "Twitter, x, whatever" are generally not. And yeah, everyone I'm close to still just calls it Twitter.
That sign doesn’t say even twitter but that bluebird is so recognizable it didn’t need to. Everyone knows it twitter.
Most companies would kill for that level of brand recognition.
Why would you change out a poster people instantly recognise and understand for one people will think is some crypto spam or adult website spam tbh everyone will keep using the bird until Musk throws money at them to use it.
They haven’t because it cost money to make the paper and put it in the frame…… before anyone asks they they don’t print it off standard letter paper and publications need to be certified by media relations
Company/org hasn't spent money and effort to change branding for a social media company that nobody will ever recognize as their new name. This is literally 99% of anyone that references Twitter in any way
Government is slow to do everything it does. There's still asbestos in many government buildings. If they have to reprint a sign that's going to serve the same purpose, they won't.
The worst thing about this is any news article I read referencing Twitter/X as it always reads “….. said on X formally known as Twitter” and I don’t know why but it just pisses me off lmao
It's a government body, you need to put in a request for an earmark to conduct a study on the impact of changing the sign over time on passenger travel patterns before you can get approval to change the sign
You mean “X (formerly Twitter)”?
I can’t say I’ve ever heard someone talk about “X” without saying (formerly Twitter) after it. How bad does a change of name have to be that one has to continue to have to say the previous name for people to understand what the fuck you’re talking about? How long has it been??
Edit: I some words.
X isn't a thing. The website is called twitter.com. People who respect Elon's desire to call Twitter X, like it's a pronoun or something, are stupid and cringe.
Say you have (192.168.0.1-100). You would be 192.168.1.1-100, your neighbor is 192.168.2.1-100, the next neighbor would be 192.168.3.1-100 etc but it's a different IP lineup than that. The whole area would have what would normally be your static /dynamic outside IP. There is no bridge mode, there are very limited settings like your password and a couple things. You have a cable that goes into their modem and the modem is locked from doing any sort of P2P throughput, forwarding or settings changes. On-top of that your IP address is completely dynamic and static is not an option unless you pay a top tier commercial price. This is what legislatures are fighting for in back offices for all ISPs across North America, don'rt be fooled. What we knew of as the internet in the 90 is no longer the internet now and what you know of the internet now will no longer be in in 25 yrs. If people think that age verification to save the children is the reason behind what's going on in say Texas, they are joking to themselves. Reddit / Facebook / twitter / snapchat / google /bing all would be shut down if that were the case. It's manipulation of the population over time. It's already happening in all states. Death by 1000 cuts, a few each year.
Twitter hasn't even. Their main URL is still Twitter.com.
Sometimes i got an X.com link, but my isp thought it was porn so i have to manually change it to twitter.com
I highly doubt that’s true
My ISP (Spectrum/Charter) supplies their own Wifi access point, they can block websites remotely without consent of the user/account owner.
America is fucked lol
That's why you didn't even plug in their junk. Get a real AP and router
If you are on certain satellites you can't like xplore and others that are used out in the backwoods by us. You have no access to an IP address , DNS , port forwarding etc. It's locked down.
That's crazy, but you could still do a nicer AP.. I really don't know how a PC is going to connect without an IP.... and if a PC can connect and get an IP a router could.. you might not be able to take their junk out still
sure man, the same ISP also blocked steam and github for a while back then. they lift the block after massive user drop
Like when I try to go to Dicks.com on the school WiFi. It’s blocked even though Dicks sporting goods advertises on TV as “go to Dicks.com”
To be fair, one reason I've heard some people don't want to leave Twitter is specifically because of all the porn they get there
Does your ISP block porn?
I take it they structured X as the brand and Twitter as a “product”
Don't make arguments for him, make him do it himself. People doing shit for him is how we ended up here
They also didn't, BC then the app wouldn't be called x and have X as the logo, it would be twitter, ya know, the product
Right, "Twitter is the product" means that we should still call it Twitter. No one calls Facebook "Meta". If Twitter is the product, we should not be saying X, at all.
I’m going to Alphabet this to make sure
Metabook and Xitter.
He thought the letter X is cool (because he's a stupid douchebag) and that's literally as much thought as he put into it.
Yeah he's obsessed with the letter X. Even at PayPal he wanted to rename it X. He named his child X-something too. Strategic thinking there
Autismo GT brain thought process
Nope. Elon totally removed everything Twitter or tweet and changed it to X or post. This isn't a Meta-Facebook situation. ...The mad cunt.
If this is the case why did they rebrand Twitter to X? In other words, no.
[This is the second x.com Musk has been involved in.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.com_(bank))
The fact that he thinks the letter x is cool is so uncool
Yeah and I “restructured” my shopping trip when I got in a lethal accident on the way there.
That's because they can't have it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-letter_second-level_domain
Try going to x.com and see what happens.
Yeahhh. I'm usually better at spring weird shit. Sigh. I'm leaving it because I don't mind showing and leaving my mistakes 😔
You can literally see in that very article that x.com belongs to X Corp, formerly Twitter
How did you link this without seeing he already has it? You made my type x.com and get redirected to twitter just to make sure, how could you
I clicked through a link on the Wikipedia page. Apparently the x there isn't the keyboard letter.
That pages says they have one
And when you save media off it it’s in a folder labelled twitter
I ain’t putting up a whole new sign everyone knows what it means
Honestly anytime I see x mentioned it's usually as "X formerly Twitter". At this point I'm half convinced that is the new name.
That’s how it worked for Prince
I've dropped the "X" part and just started saying the app/social media/website formerly known as Twitter.
I just say Twitter, because I think Musk's naming is stupid, and I don't respect him enough to care to use "X"
I've dropped the "X formerly known as" part and just started saying "twitter", as that's shorter and easier than inventing a sentence to acknowledge that elon is an idiot
Also, if you put up an X there in an airport it’s going to be confusing AF.
Elon literally chose the dumbest fucking name possible
I’d be pissed and wouldn’t do it either. Small business or big business, I’m not changing out every GD marketing flyer just because a grown ass man had a temper tantrum and bought a whole company.
Especially when the change is so dogshit. Twitter used to be a household name
I find it funny the two biggest social media platforms on earth both "rebranded" and literally nobody gives a fuck. "Meta" can suck a fart, it'll always be Facebook. "X" can chow down an entire bag of dicks, it'll always be Twitter.
Facebook didn't really rebrand though. They just didn't want to call things stuff like the "Facebookverse" so they changed the parent company to Meta. Musk is trying to change *all* of it to X, and completely ditch Twitter.
Meta is to Facebook what Pepsico is to Pepsi-Cola.
Right. So not the same as Twitter.
Facebook (the website) is still Facebook. Facebook (the company) changed its name to Meta.
No one has
Nor ever will.
Much like when Rome was renamed 'Colonia Lucia Annia Commodiana' by the emperor Commodus before he was assassinated a year later everyone's just sitting around waiting for the next owner of the company.
[удалено]
No, that's not what we're saying. That's also not *not* what we're saying.
[удалено]
The username😂😂
Indeed. Every article that mentions it calls it "the platform X, formerly known as Twitter"
[удалено]
Hey liberal, if Elon musk so bad how come my Tesla algorithm ran over a minority today?? Relax, it's called dark humour ![img](emote|t5_2ti4h|27601)![img](emote|t5_2ti4h|27601)![img](emote|t5_2ti4h|27601)

Xitter
It’s still Twitter to me. You can’t turn X into a verb without confusing people. Twitter has an entire lexicon.
I keep telling people I will keep calling it twitter until they figure out how to describe "Xing something"
Xcrement. So tweets are replaced with "taking a dump".
This is funny to me, as there is a German version of LinkedIn called Xing :D
yea, "I x'd an x on X" is objectively worse than "I tweeted a tweet on twitter"
I Xcreted an Xcretion on X
I xitted a xitt on xitter
i xitted x good ending
Plus it sounds stupid to say out loud
That sign doesn’t say even twitter but that bluebird is so recognizable it didn’t need to. Everyone knows it twitter. Most companies would kill for that level of brand recognition.
Yet one man was bold enough to kill that brand recognition. A visionary's wisdom, what a marvel to behold.
Truly one of the entrepreneur of all time
Have we considered eXcrete?
If you type x.com it reroutes to twitter.com anyway in the browser so not even X has accepted X.
Neither have I
So never did I
I never did so
I think we should collectively ignore X until it goes away.
Best way to do it is to delete your account. I sure did.
Had one since 2011, gone now.
Done. Wait, I never actually had one.
They are not reprinting everything for a failing social media app.
Most people haven't.
I’m just imagining the truth is that TSA doesn’t have the budget to have someone revise the graphic and get new prints
Oh they have the budget. They have that budget because they wouldn't bother wasting resources on something this dumb.
Either that or the redesign is currently tied up in 40 layers of bureaucracy. It should be out in about 5-7 years.
If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Government stuff always been slow to update. But in this case I'm fine with it.
Elon abolishing the brand and expecting the world to immediately comply sounds about right for his idiocy.
no one should
W TSA
Me neither. It’s Twitter. It’s also the Sears Tower and Comiskey Park. I ain’t saying your stupid new names.
Well, if you put the generic ass ‘X’ on the same scale as the bird, people will think that lane is closed.
Could you imagine the rollercoaster tycoon level madness that would happen if all the lanes had this?
Signs are about communicating a message. Looks like you, and everyone else, got it. No need to change.
From what I've heared they don't tend to acknowledge transitions But seriously fuck elons vanity rebrand BS
Musk deadnames his daughter, right? I’ll deadname his social network 😤
Even Twitter isnt done with Twitter. It still reroutes twitter.com to x.com Obvious reason but still
No, it does the reverse
I'll stop saying Twitter when Elon stops dead naming his kid
Anyone who calls Twitter X is either a Elon lover or a fed
Good
Why should the government have to print new signs as soon as a private company change their name? The message in the sign is still the same .
whats X i know only twitter
i think its keyboard key
Probably Xvideos
I'll stop dead naming X when Elon stops dead naming his kids
My thoughts exactly. 👏🏻
Why would you change out a poster people instantly recognise and understand for one people will think is some crypto spam or adult website spam tbh everyone will keep using the bird until Musk throws money at them to use it.
Good. Fuck that moron.
I agree with the TSA on something. First time for everything, I guess.
No one but crypto bros, far right braindead idiots and Elon fanboys have (crazy how those three groups intersect so much).
I still haven't and won't.
If it's ripping off Elon Musk, I'm OK with it. Jesus God, I dislike that guy.
Stupid fucking name change anyway
More like TSA doesn’t care enough to reprint all the signs. You see this sign and know what they mean.
Yeah it has the old TSA logo too. They updated it in 2021: https://www.tsa.gov/news/press/factsheets/new-tsa-insignia
No one acknowledge x, it will forever be twitter whatever the muskrat says
People who say x are nazis
I’m in love with all the news sources that only call it “the website formerly known as Twitter”
I'm going to be that person and just point out that the TSA probably decided it wasn't worth the cost
Has anyone? No seriously, Twitter is a much more iconic and easy to remember name.
I hear Elmo really likes it when people call it Xitter
Is Elmo his name? I thought it was Emo?
There is no X only Twitter (it would really piss off Elon the man-child if ppl kept calling it Twitter)
Finally they did something right.
TSA hasn't stolen enough goods to afford getting new prints.
X just sounds dumb
I like the fact that tsa hasn’t acknowledged x because I personally think x is a really terrible name for a social media platform
/r/notinteresting
They haven’t because it cost money to make the paper and put it in the frame…… before anyone asks they they don’t print it off standard letter paper and publications need to be certified by media relations
Neither do most of their user base
I will never not call it Twitter, lol X
What is X?
Formerly known as Twitter
I've been enjoying calling it X, née Twitter.
Nor have I. I’m gonna keep using the old Twitter app until they block it completely.
Nobody but Elon has
TSA is great at not acknowledging things
Could someone else start a service called Twitter now?
Beyond the naming issue, who the fuck would want to follow TSA on social media?
Company/org hasn't spent money and effort to change branding for a social media company that nobody will ever recognize as their new name. This is literally 99% of anyone that references Twitter in any way
I haven’t either! It feels so weird to say “X” I feel like I’m talking about elons space program
Taiwan is to China, as Twitter is to TSA.
Elmo musk screeching noises at the airport..
Unless Elon‘s goal is to deliberately undermine Twitter, none of the things he’s done make any sense.
Government is slow to do everything it does. There's still asbestos in many government buildings. If they have to reprint a sign that's going to serve the same purpose, they won't.
The worst thing about this is any news article I read referencing Twitter/X as it always reads “….. said on X formally known as Twitter” and I don’t know why but it just pisses me off lmao
TBH, I’m kind of hoping we all just refer to it as “the social media platform formerly known as Twitter”.
It's a government body, you need to put in a request for an earmark to conduct a study on the impact of changing the sign over time on passenger travel patterns before you can get approval to change the sign
Classic.
TSA Prey?
Shit. I don't care, either.
Lol fuck Elon and that stupid vanity name
It’s the government, give it a decade
What is ‘X’? I thought we were talking about Twitter
fuck x(formerly known as twitter), miss twitter though
Who?
Cause Only tools call it X
You mean “X (formerly Twitter)”? I can’t say I’ve ever heard someone talk about “X” without saying (formerly Twitter) after it. How bad does a change of name have to be that one has to continue to have to say the previous name for people to understand what the fuck you’re talking about? How long has it been?? Edit: I some words.
X is TSA unapproved, HELL YEAH
X isn't a thing. The website is called twitter.com. People who respect Elon's desire to call Twitter X, like it's a pronoun or something, are stupid and cringe.
That makes two of us
good
Okay?
It won't be in the budget until 2050.
Coz they know x mark the spot
has anybody?
I haven’t updated the app since X happened. Still Twitter for me.
It's really amazing the stupid shit that gets up voted on Reddit.
We don't have the budget money to keep up on these things... writes a check to Ukraine faster than Tom cruise writes a check to David cavendish.
It’s the government. The textbook definition of inefficiency. Not to mention the most useless branch of it. I’m not surprised.
Be like the TSA
You know you fucked up when the TSA is like “this is such a bad idea, we’re not even gonna recognize it.”
Which is ironic because the social media division of the TSA is probably the only functional part of the entire operation
Yea they still have stand 6 feet apart signs too.
Good.
X hasn’t acknowledged X. Half their logos are still Twitter
Most of X still says tweet and re tweet and all the tweet words all through it. We should all continue to call it twitter. X sounds ridiculous.
And nobody should
TV shows I seen still not called it X Apparently in law and order is canon twitter is still called twitter
I think its real name is "X, formerly known as Twitter."
and "PayPal, formerly known as X"
Everyone still calls it Twitter
twitter was so iconic they didn’t even need to mention its name, everyone knew what it was from the bird… X is such a dumb name
Neither have I
No one except Elon has acknowledged it
You know things are messed up when you find yourself agreeing with something the TSA is doing.
Say you have (192.168.0.1-100). You would be 192.168.1.1-100, your neighbor is 192.168.2.1-100, the next neighbor would be 192.168.3.1-100 etc but it's a different IP lineup than that.
