Dear Jesus (@PrayingtoJesus2) reportedBreakdown of the good news… 1. Shifting AI Off-Planet (The Energy Crisis Fix) The biggest hidden genius of the SpaceXAI / xAI merger is solving the global power crisis. Terrestrial AI data centers are consuming an unsustainable amount of Earth's electricity grid. [1] •What's Coming: SpaceX has filed to operate up to 1 million orbital data center satellites. •The Loop: Musk plans to use Starship to launch massive AI compute clusters directly into space. These space-based data centers will run on 100% pure, uninterrupted solar energy, bypassing Earth's power constraints completely. Starlink will then beam the AI processing power down to Earth instantaneously. [1, 2, 3] 🤖 2. The Internal "Circular Economy" Musk designs his companies so they don't have to rely on traditional, fragile global supply chains. Instead, his companies are their own primary customers. [1, 2] •Tesla’s factory labor: When Tesla rolls out its mass-produced Optimus Humanoid Robots, they won't be sold to the public first. They will be deployed inside Tesla’s own automotive factories to solve labor shortages and cut manufacturing costs to almost zero. [1] •The Compute Loop: The ultra-powerful AI chips designed by Tesla for its self-driving Robotaxis are funneled directly back to xAI to train newer versions of Grok. Nothing is wasted. [1] 🏦 3. Rewriting the Global Financial System Musk's oldest obsession is rebuilding the way money moves through the economy itself—a plan he has had since his early 1999 PayPal days. [1] •What's Coming: X is transitioning into an all-in-one financial hub. •The Loop: By integrating high-yield banking, peer-to-peer payments, and instant stock trading directly into X, Musk will have direct, frictionless access to hundreds of millions of retail investors. The next time a company like Neuralink or The Boring Company needs capital, his followers will be able to fund it natively in seconds, effectively cutting Wall Street banks completely out of the equation. [1] 🔮 The End Game: Post-Scarcity Economy Musk has openly predicted that by 2036, the combination of autonomous humanoid robots and advanced AI will create an "age of abundance" where goods and services are so cheap that traditional money will become almost meaningless. [1, 2] He isn't managing money to accumulate cash in a bank account. He is spending every dollar he can get his hands on now to control the core infrastructure of the future: the transport (SpaceX), the intelligence (xAI), and the automation (Tesla). [1, 2] If you'd like, we can focus on what is closest on the horizon: •Do you want to see how space-based AI data centers will actually work? •Are you curious about when the Optimus robots are scheduled to take over Tesla's assembly lines? [1, 2]

Shubham Mali (@hackwithshubham) reportedReceived my first bug bounty reward as a security researcher, but PayPal has now placed a permanent limitation on my account. I’ve already completed KYC and submitted all the requested documents. @PayPal @AskPayPal Please look into this and help resolve the issue.

Worldwide News Network (@WorldwideNNX) reportedUS STOCKS FALL AFTER WARSH SIGNALS POSSIBLE RATE HIKES Remarks by Fed Chair Kevin Warsh dominated Wall Street Friday.: “It was a down day for US equities, but a winning week. This after Fed Chair Kevin Warsh admitted the need for rate hikes if inflation doesn't cool soon. Company new stock in PayPal fell sharply as Stripe and Advent walked away from a $50 billion buyout deal. The chipmaker Marvel Technology was down. As its results underwhelmed the street, even though they had 37% revenue growth, Gap shares jumped with a new veteran CEO appointed to run the Old Navy division, and next week, earnings from Broadcom, Dell, and Lululemon, and the August jobs report is out next Friday. John Terrett, Worldwide News Network. ”

Finance Spot (@financespotnews) reportedMichael Burry went public on PayPal 134 days ago. The stock is still +9% from that call. On July 15, $PYPL jumped 17% on buyout rumors. That same day Burry called the offer “simply too low.” Last night, Stripe and Advent International walked away from the takeover. $PYPL is down ~11–12% today — and Burry is still ahead.

💚🍃~Ivern Wife~ 🍂 💚 (@Ivernnator) reportedA couple of days ago, my PayPal app was updated, and I find it incredibly slow, tedious, and unintuitive. Does anyone else feel the same way? :(

thereal_rok (@thereal_rok) reported$PYPL: $53 billion acquisition talks collapse The immediate cause of today’s sharp drop in PayPal shares is reports that a consortium comprising Advent International and Stripe has abandoned plans to acquire the company. Previous offer: $60.50 per share; total valuation: approximately $53 billion. Latest development: The buyers have withdrawn from negotiations. $PYPL shares fell by roughly 15%–16% in pre-market trading and were down about 12%–14% during the trading session. 📈 Driven by acquisition speculation, $PYPL had previously risen over 40% this quarter; consequently, the news triggered a significant sell-off as market expectations failed to materialize.

Jonas Gruber (@jonasgruber_) reported52 followers 7 days ago. 1,100+ today. Wild. Thanks to every single one of you. let me quickly introduce myself: In 2019 I was bored out of my mind at university. Took me about one semester to realize the degree I was working towards would never get me where I actually wanted to be. Then YouTube recommended me a video: "How to make money with dropshipping" Boom. That was the opportunity I was looking for (I thought). So I went all in. Grinding day and night. 30k first month, tripled that the month after. I thought I cracked the code. Until > PayPal cases started rolling in lol. > Refunds left and right. > Problems with the supplier as well. Turns out I sucked at running the store. But heres the thing: While I was bad at every part of that business, there was one part I was actually good at. The ad account. Reading the data and making decisions other people didn't see were an option. So I asked around in my network whether I could run ads for them. Took some time but one guy finally said yes (forever thankful for you if you read this). And guess what: IT WORKED! Certainly not at today's level, but more than enough to establish a profitable marketing channel for him. In fact: He was so happy, he recommended me to another guy and one thing led to another. FAST FORWARD TO TODAY: I run a multi 7-figure full funnel Google Ads agency. We scale brands like Sodastream, Riedel and Music Store, plenty of stores starting from scratch on Google and everything in between. And after a few hundred accounts, the same pattern keeps showing up: ALMOST NOBODY IS LOSING MONEY BC THEIR ADS ARE BAD. But bc they're not doing the basics right at scale. After spending €50mio+ on Google I thought, "why not share all the lessons and insights about how to scale tf out of people's Google Ads." I share every single detail and not gate keep anything. Before, I thought this stuff was way too niche for X. But based on the DMs I've received, apparently not. So welcome on my X account brother. Follow along for more ecom nerd stuff that makes you more money. 🫶🏼

Compsci Guy🇺🇲 (@compsciman) reported@linuxuser1996 Just to verify that this issue still exists. I intentionally logged out of PayPal while my password manager was still enabled. I closed and then reopened it. Then it began crashing. Disabling the password manager (with protection compatibility still enabled) temporarily fixed it

GrapheneOS (@GrapheneOS) reported@JKhrushche10538 @linuxuser1996 We already provided a clear solution for the bug recently introduced by PayPal above. If you don't tell us what isn't working then there's no way for us to directly help with it. We can only guess what you're trying to do and what's not set up properly to cause an issue.
