Everyone should track him and post to Tiktok just for s*s n giggles

[–] Hansae@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 23 hours ago

You can swear on the internet.

[–] Luffy879@lemmy.ml 4 points 23 hours ago

Just say shit. You are on the internet. You can say shit, piss, fuck, asshole, and even „Du kleiner hurensohn ich ficke deine mutter”.

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I wanna bet all the CO2 emissions he emits are as much as if he'd sell gasoline cars instead.

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 57 points 2 days ago

The only reason I give the slightest slightly green toilet-bowl-staining shit about this is because it upsets him and he deserves to be upset

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 29 points 2 days ago (4 children)

But can you shoot it down?

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

Yes, just not through mastodon.

You won't need to if he keeps cutting the FAA and other agencies

[–] poopiddy@pawb.social 6 points 2 days ago

hmmm new game idea

[–] MITM0@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Just trick him into saying Crude oil is bad

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 205 points 2 days ago (41 children)

In unrelated news, the graphics for the Switch 2 are fucking incredible - look at this shit! This is wild!

Wasn't it part of why he acquired Twitter to shut down the account? The account later moved to Mastodon.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 45 points 2 days ago

Nah, he just purchased the world's biggest megaphone from which he could propel his ketamine fuelled opinions into the deep uncaring void of the internet.

[–] rustbuckett@lemmings.world 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I remember him getting really mad about his plane being tracked. Didn't know it was on Twitter.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

It was. Think he banned the account for "doxxing"

[–] jeena@piefed.jeena.net 89 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Now do it for the other Billionairs.

[–] RandomStickman@fedia.io 58 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The creator also made one for Taylor Swift and a few others

Air traffic information is already publicly available. The author of the bot simply scrapes data for Elon's Jet. You can use websites like FlightAware, Flightradar24, and PlaneLogger that provide real-time tracking of flights, including private jets. You can also search for specific aircraft or view flights in a particular area. I remember shortly after Elon bought Twitter he got the account suspended.

adding so it’s archived in as many places as possible:

the reg is N628TS, and you can track it with any ADS-B service

ADS-B is broadcast from the plane, and able to be picked up by any in-range receiver… services like flight radar 24 aggregate many receivers across the world run by ordinary people

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Ok, but does anyone here own a MANPADS?

[–] MrMakabar@slrpnk.net 6 points 2 days ago

Ukraine is working on anti air drones...

The FAA is changing the rule which makes this information public. The FAA is fully controlled by the rich.

[–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 35 points 2 days ago (5 children)

ADS-B is public broadcast though… if you’re in range of the plane, you can pick up its air traffic control data (elevation, speed, heading, registration, etc)… services like flight radar 24 don’t work on FAA data: they are a huge network of regular people across the globe with ADS-B receivers contributing everything they see

how to link planes to billionaires in europe? any ideas?

[–] tauren@lemm.ee 8 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Why would I want to track his jet though?

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

gives him anxiety, the same shit he causes on millions world wide by funding extreme right wing movements

[–] MdPhoenix@lemm.ee 42 points 2 days ago

Because it pisses him off

[–] Linktank@lemmy.today 14 points 2 days ago

Probably in the hopes of seeing it blip out of existence somewhere over the Atlantic.

[–] ohellidk@sh.itjust.works 40 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Hell yeah, the fediverse rocks!
