I was coming on this thread to say "Anonymous better claim this and come out of stasis..."

Your comment made my day!

[–] tdawg@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

Did they tho? I don't see anything on the site that claims this attack

[–] tiefling@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 week ago

"they will be removed"

The attack started when Musk acquired Twitter and laid off everyone who wasn't an asshole.

Most of the people involved in that cyberattack are wearing thigh high socks and cat ear headphones, and they’re much cooler than Musk would ever be.

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 16 points 1 week ago (2 children)

What is "priaprism"?

I'll take "PP WORDS" for 600, Alex.

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Having a janky wang doesn’t make Musk uncool in and of itself, lots of janky wang-havers are cool.

His insecurity about it, publicly, deprives him of any coolosity he ever could have had.

He is a man without potential or love.

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 6 points 1 week ago

The joke started out in my head as "stop, I can only get so hard!" And then I classed it up with medical terminology.

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

priaprism

I had to look this up, and wow, the image on the Wikipedia article for priaprism is... well, it's something.

Fresco of Priapus, Casa dei Vettii, Pompeii. Depicted weighing his enormous erect penis against a bag of gold.

[–] LimpRimble@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago

Isn't that the same picture they used for the article on Biggus Dickus?

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 1 week ago

He in general underperforms in the coolness department. I have no interest in his man-noodle.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago

elons botched surgery prevents him from getting an erection.

Imagine firing your entire IT team and then crying 'cyberattack' when the servers can't handle traffic.

I mean, they’re being DDOSed right now. But yeah, he fired anyone who would know how to mitigate a DDOS attack.

[–] TheWeirdestCunt@lemm.ee 23 points 1 week ago

twitter still has 28,000 users? and they're active enough to report the outage?

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 21 points 1 week ago

Where do i sign up and help fight the Musk troll..

[–] ATDA@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

Big oh no anyway vibes.

[–] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 16 points 1 week ago

Twitter as run by Musk— There has never been a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Didn’t trump shut down cybercrime investigations?

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

All the more reason for russia to try a cyberattack?

It would be best if it does not come back up.

[–] Ceruleum@lemmy.wtf 10 points 1 week ago

[–] normalexit@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Tragic. Just tragic.

Must be the great hacker collective: N_competence

Edit: ~~Well, butter my buns and call me a biscuit. It seems like he might not’ve been lying on this one account.~~ Never mind. Looks like he is lying again.

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He's blaming it on Ukraine which sounds like a false flag. He'll use this as the reason he has to cut off Starlink to the country.

Why is anyone even still using that product?

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago

It's a propaganda engine for propaganda consumers.
