If embeds are broken everywhere I guess I can turn strict mode on for firefox again, so that's nice. So, do you think this is one of those bad decisions that elon will flip flop on in a couple of days or one of the ones he's going to stubbornly stick to, where are you putting your money?

Just append "nitter.net" instead of "twitter.com" and it should still work. They don't do embeds, but you can still look at stuff thru there. I've been reposting some stuff on other places and will use nitter.net just to preserve the aspect and so that anything new twitter doesn't bleed to it.

I clicked on a few this morning and they don't play, they just go to the login page lol Hmm, I will try to test this if I find an embedded twitter video soon, but did you remember that if the embed is of a reply to a video so that first is shown the original video tweet and under it the response, then only videos in the reply tweet will play but to play the quoted video you will have to go on site? That's how it worked to me before. e: okay, see I can watch this embedded video by just clicking on it: UKJeff posted:I saw an ad for a pair of reading glasses where they used them as a chisel to break bricks in half and it made me LOL pretty good

I used to that nearly 20 years ago, just have a bunch of small places I'd recommend, but amusingly I'd get the feedback that if people were looking at those, there wouldn't be much discussion about it.

The only thing funnier that could have happened other than Musk letting the fight happen and losing would be them compromising with something nonviolent and cringe like playing Street Fighter 6 or trying to roast each other in a rap battle.
