This is Halli, the disabled Icelandic entrepreneur who got into, and won, an exchange with Musk that went viral this week. (EDIT: See the stories at https://www.cnbc.com/2023/03/08/elon-musk-publicly-questions-laid-off-twitter-employee.html and https://www.marketwatch.com/story/elon-musk-apologizes-to-disabled-ex-twitter-employee-who-was-voted-icelands-person-of-the-year-in-2022-ba0a3a8a . )

He said yesterday he'd be making a major announcement today.

This is video of the single, which I love:

Re the stage name - as he explained on Twitter:

I chose the stage name Önnu Jónu Son. Which means the son of Anna Jóna, my mom who died when I was young.

By wearing my mothers name I was able to use her memory, love, support and nurture as protection from any self doubt or fear of external criticism.

1. Like the voice and sound. Musk has once

again been outclassed.

3. Completely outclassed.

2. Given how Musk comes across like a total moron (who barely understands the technical aspects

the company he overpaid for), in those leaked phone calls. Maybe this guy should be CEO.

4. I wouldn't wish that job on anyone decent, unless they can

automatically re-suspend all the trolls, frauds, bigots and grifters - all the RW trash - that Musk let back on the platform.

5. No doubt! nt
