    Soooo noone here even read the article? Just see Elon and start shitting everywhere? The company suing X was dealing with Twitter before Elon. There was no purchasing contract in place when the suing company placed the $20 million dollar order they are claiming is all custom made and cant be recouped, “the social media platform had not made any firm purchase order when the server dealer went ahead with its purchases and deliveries.”

    How about we read an article before we start spewing shit everywhere?

      You think that companies just slap down 20mil without a contract in place?

      When you read the article, it also points to another article that goes further into this case.

      …in 2014 it contracted with Twitter to provide “unique, custom-designed IT infrastructure products including rack solutions.”…

      Seems it was already approved in 2014 for such a long-term relationship in writing. It seems that Elon just didn’t want to pay for it even though Twitter was contractual bound to pay.

      Good luck lol. The top comments are almost always people that didn’t actually read the article, just the headline. I see it on practically all social media sites, not just Lemmy.
