His stock has been going down for a week or so. Wondering if that jab from Paul about "others investing too much time on software rather than manufacturing" got to him.

I mean FoodFight was originally going to look better and it had a lot of star power, but most of the animation getting stolen didn't help. But then again, there's productions with that sort of push all over the place. Just look at this HBO fairytale cartoon wikipedia entry and you'll see all sorts of really surprising names. Why yes, the Chicken Little adaptation has Rudy Gulliani, Alan Dershowitz, the lawyer that got OJ out and Henry Kissinger all doing voices on this.

Masta is still going, I know quite a bunch of people who are still there and a bunch are still there because of the api change. Same with Co-host as well, but that's more of a "I need a lighter lj-type thing where I'm not being followed by the world" sort of deal rather than a twitter equivalent.

It's what people wanted in a way, but it doesn't have the sheer giant audience of around a decade and half twitter had. It won't Kill twitter, but its good if you want something less intense. It's like saying that a state tv channel broadcasting farm news and docs is a failure because it doesn't have the same intensity of Imjarons's TikTok channel.

Which lead to nearly everyone muting or blocking that, which I guess the small interaction of going to their profile to do that is enough to poke a bit to it, but it sorta fades away as time goes. On both accounts.

500 good dogs posted:they didn't even levy the fine, it's bad reporting It's more of a warning, and its a combination between the lack of crackdown on Holocaust Denial and Circles not fully being private under the pretense of being private. For now, they're giving the chance for Elon and his mod team to go to Bonn to further elaborate on their procedures. Now if they don't pop there for the court hearing, then yes a fine of that size COULD be levied.

FreeRangeHexagon posted:I'm never really sure what to do when some twitter person I follow is obviously having a depressive break. I feel guilty for not doing anything, but if I was depression posting on twitter the last thing I would want is some grossly unqualified amateur like me trying to be helpful. If you know that person somewhere else like a telegram or whatasapp contact, I'd poke them about them. Otherwise, sometimes people have separate accounts for certain kinds of moods, and this was before Twitter Circles was a thing.

shyduck posted:NWS's websites are kinda crap. They all have the same dated visual format, but even worse is every regional office puts things in different places. Thankfully a lot of their real time warning graphics are integrated with apps like Radarscope, which is relatively easy to use Is it at least functional? I remember having to use some data from them a decade ago and their site was reasonable, no ads and the like in sight.

That's a boilerplate "By posting this on this website, you're granting us permission to have this sent as a post on our website that others can view." Nearly every social media and da-type site has this somewhere on the user agreement.

Aw, the EmojiTetra account was suspended. For those unfamiliar with it, it was a twitter-poll driven game of Tetris where everyone would vote on how to move the pieces, and it was this fun mild-interaction you could do for a while.

Being told to Block The Blue over some long term effect on twitter is dubious, but having some of the most insuffferable people popping around like mushrooms on comments like that? Why wouldn't you mass mute or block them? At least the ones that are acting like it, not people like Massimo or Justin Whang.

I don't remember if I post this on either thread, but I remember a good while ago when Elon posted a playlist of music he liked, and all of them were classical music save for one track, which was Andrea Boccelli's Time To Say Goodbye, and that was probably like one of the only moments I've seen him put out something not clouded by a floating funko pop or some sort of world spanning sentiment but rather "Yeah, I believe a 50 year old sorta-European guy would put that particular song on his playlist, specially if he was like 30 or so when he heard it for the first time."

Groovelord Neato posted:Any time these guys whine about Soros you'll see people in the replies lying about Soros being a Nazi collaborator they're not mad that he's a billionaire or how he got his money. Which makes the Magneto comparison even sillier, specially given how both his character is seen in better light nowadays and how the inspiration for the main conflict between X and Magneto had been disproven this month, what with the article showing that MLK didn't have beef with Malcolm X.

Oh no I ain't leaving this on a goofing fashion since this could lead to Musk helping the publishers eat the Internet Archive alive. That person is right and that's based on a misconception about IA not removing stuff if requested. I tried getting the X-Entertainment archives, which used to be big back in the day, and ended up noticing that they were removed under request.

And I mean, once every few days someone dumps a whole flick there (From the Mario movie to the Super Hornio movie), so it's not a lie to go on how it's easy to do that sort of stuff there, isn't it?

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.

For those that are like "Ok I really, really don't want to go get a twitter, but there are like a few people I'm cool with hearing from there", someone on the github for nitter came up with this idea so you can just shove some people you like on a rss feed instead of having to register an account and having to handle the whole enchilada.

I just realized that on this weekend, he would have a good excuse and story to distract everyone with the launch of the Euclid sattelite, which used a Falcon booster to launch. A previous media team could have said something like "Right now, he's handling the launch of something that will better help us understand the universe, and thus his social media venture has taken a secondary plane here". Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if someone a bit more mainstream could easily spin that for him. Nope, instead he's doing "ah, touch grass" poo poo. That's DeSantis-media-team level nonsense, not "Wait, scientists could look up to me" nonsense.
