It’s also seizure-inducing

Wow, that is incredibly annoying! I can’t imagine they wouldn’t get forced to take it down.
I guess all he does is baiting headlines
he’ll only stop when it stops working. not happening anytime soon, sadly
Go away, baitin
Fuck all their neighbors, I guess
Jesus fucking christ, how is that still standing
How often do you get to break the law as a billionaire before you have consequences?
All of the times.
Is that on purpose or is the thing so badly made that it’s blinking like that?
Bad Chicken! Mess you up!!
That’s not good for business.
Wow. I’m not particularly sensitive, but that seems like the right amount of very bright strobe that gives me headaches in concerts, especially at night in the dark. That’s very much the level of trying to find out a way to get to the roof to unplug it.
That has got to be a joke. How come by now nobody shot it down?
I’m hoping you mean the city shooting it down, as in saying nope to it lol. Any responsible gun owner would ideally realize how terrible of an idea it would be to pop rounds at it, in a city center, with buildings behind it, knowing a good percentage of those shots will miss and go flying beyond it.
Odds are, the city will have something to say about it, and knowing Elon, he didn’t pull a permit so it’s a matter of time. That thing is an eye sore and a hazard.
Purely because it’s in CA. Even if you can get your hands on a gun you’ve only got 5 shots before you have to reload.
Is reloading super laborious or something? Is the goal to only need to reload once a day, maybe at night as your phone is recharging?
I… don’t think that’s how it works…
Gun Simps: “You can’t have gun control because people don’t follow the law and will get them anyway.”
Also Gun Simps: “Nobody has guns in California because it’s against the law.”
Pick one way to be wrong, at least.
But at least you are shooting it down
Didn’t that actually just get overturned?
That explains it. This thing would drive me nuts in like two minutes
Seriously? It’s the actual sign?
It is. And it was done without a permit, so the city might fine him over it too. https://apnews.com/article/twitter-san-francisco-building-x-elon-musk-4e0ae2a3b1b838b744bb2dc494f5b23c
For once I hope the fine is not based on revenue
Aren’t there usually minimum fines anyway even if they’re based on revenue?
Yeah probably, just my poor attempt at a joke about X’s business rather than a genuine hope.
Heh, I can appreciate that. Just commented so nobody will use that as a justification why fines shouldn’t be based on revenue.
Twitter has tons of revenue, they don’t have profit.
A fine for the billionaire rich is meaningless in most cases :/
And is that a CCTV camera on the right?
The camera is actualy a part of the logo.
Might be a light sensor, too blurry to really tell
Well that looks like shit.
It’s perfect.

It’s amazing how countless people have labeled Elon a shit-posting edgelord, and yet, he keeps trying so damn hard to tell the world what we all already know.
We get it, dude. Now shut the fuck up and do a days worth of work for once in your life. I think we’re all quite tired of billionaire’s at this point.
I’d surely be walking into the building every morning with a paper bag over my head if I were somebody who was still stuck working there.
I have to imagine the only people who are still working there are just trying to stay in America.
This. Many of the people who still work there have no other choice. Their citizenship is tied to their employer. I feel sympathy for them.
he wants to be a Furher so badly
He’s definitely one step furher.
Just needs to add feet on to the X
It look like vandalism, someone broke into the building at night to put on their crappy sign.
This kind of describes what’s actually happened.
I mean someone who could do it professionally would probably professionally say no to such an illegal job
I didn’t realize he did it all himself.
All the money in the world can’t buy taste
just barons doing baron things.
What in the actual fuck?
This is like a physical embodiment of Poe’s law.
as oppose to out of state crackheads?  because, everyone knows, local is better
Shop for crack head work locally, it’s better for the economy.
Dosen’t look that bad for a temp fix, hahahaha
Maybe if they were trying to sell Erector Sets.
Watch a video of it operating at night. Gaudy doesn’t begin to describe it
For real, it’s ugly and way too bright and fucking stupid but whoever had a week to create x-shaped disturbingly blinking sun did an okay job imo.
