Hey @elonmusk, @Starlink should allow connections to your payment processor while Starlink is in restricted mode, so people can pay for the service while connected via Starlink.

Hurricane Beryl wiped out our internet and cell service, so I went to @HomeDepot to buy a Starlink. Brought it home and connected it, but I had to leave to find a cell signal just so I could pay for the service.

But I’m up and running again, which is awesome. It seems to work very well even though the app told me I can expect some interruptions due to not having a clear spot for it that isn’t my roof. Now I have high speed Internet in a disaster zone. Thanks for that!

In my experience, suggesting times relieves mental burden on the other party, and gets many more meetings booked. It’s so one-sided that I only ask the other person to suggest a time if I can’t meet with them any time soon.
Iron law of Calendly links - if you are the one requesting the meeting, you may not send your scheduling link. Proper etiquette: "I'd love to meet and talk about X. If that's interesting, send over your scheduling link or some times that work for you." Much higher close rate!

The lights of heaven are shining down upon us. Finally, the holy grail of spreadsheets has been found!

Johnny Lee famously hacked a Wii Remote to turn a 2D screen into a 3D window. We revived this trick in Chrome using a standard webcam. Here’s how we did it. 🧵👇

why read the docs for a few minutes when you can spend hours just trying things out?

Is there a way to allow Chrome to save a password for a website but tell it not to autofill?

Ok, the long tweets suck. Maybe they’re good for writing but they’re terrible for reading, especially in threads. Roll back that commit.

On Mac, how can I get it to show me the file in Finder when I search for a file, rather than opening it? I used to use Alfred and it did this wonderfully, but it no longer finds any files when I search for them. It's as if it lost access to the index.

I have the best team. I can confirm we closed a lot last week and will keep it up this week. We closed our offices and laptops.
The best sales teams closed plenty this past week, and will close more this coming week The rest close nothing this time of year, and tell you everything has pushed to next year Which type do you have?

Love the fact that Apple Watch recently updated the sleep app to better record sleep. It was previously recording maybe 1/2 to 2/3 of my sleep. But I wish it could reanalyze past data instead of telling me my sleep changed dramatically over the last week.
When your password is 16 random characters and unique to the website, but they send you a message saying your password "may have been compromised on another service"
Sometimes when I click to view a tweet in the app on mobile it opens the browser to see it there instead.
It has been 5 weeks since @elonmusk took over and the pace of new feature releases has been incredible. Here is a list of all the successful new features. 🧵
Can't find rechargeable AA batteries that fit my old Apple Magic Mouse. My old batteries no longer hold a charge past 1-2hrs, and I've tried two brands where the + side of the battery doesn't seem to be long enough to reach the contacts in the mouse. Any ideas?
Two days under new ownership and my timeline is already full of conspiracy theories. 🫤
