Twitter C/D

if Elon somehow breaks the logjam of the mainstream payments industry's aversion to pornography he will have accidentally done something good but I don't think he actually will do that

Hmmmm.

I noticed this as well

incredible indictment that everyone is desperately looking for somewhere to meet and talk to people, and no one has even mentioned Zuckerberg's $70bn metaverse

hmmm it might be happening

Pushshift is already seeing a larger number of server side errors coming back from Twitter's API. Approximately 25-30% of all API requests are now failing.

Generally we see a failure rate well under 1%. Error rates have been increasing steadily since Nov 16. pic.twitter.com/FXc6K4Geb6

all these moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. time to die

Have met that kid, he moved to FL not long after.

hell of a commute

I watched 30-50 feral hogs glitter in the dark near the Tannhoüser gate. All these moments will be lost in time, like tweets in rain

CBS News and its owned and operated stations are “pausing” activity on Twitter; blaming “uncertainty” on the platform. pic.twitter.com/Pv1gEQjQJH

the feral hogs thing was some all time bad posting, a million people failing to understand that the original post was funnier than any possible riff they could do on it

That feral hogs patter is fucking dreadful.

I think cunts should need a patter licence.

“I think cunts should need a patter license” pops into my head all the time (for no particular reason ahem)

good mourning!

Don't know if this has been posted and it is ukpoly but the point is v good: we need our own twitter.

It doesn't explore whether that could be Mastodon.

ok i will build a new twitter (twitter2)

Please give it to the people when you do.

no i need my own plane

I'll build an app to track it's movements, give the info to tankies so they'll shoot it down.

no dont shoot me down please

Taking Care of Business – In a Crash and Burn

what's the standard ilx temp ban for shooting another ilxor's plane out of the sky?

That would be my third ban so it could be perm this time.

I guess the copywrite strike service was one of the 80% he cut, you can post entire movies now

decent flick

I watched two of those clips, having never seen more than five seconds of the movie before today, and holy shit, I feel like I suffered organic brain damage. That was one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life. And James Cameron is gonna waste the rest of his productive life making sequels to that shit?

Looks like Twitter’s api service just went down. Can’t authenticate with Tweetbot any more.

Lol @ someone tweeting all of Hackers (1995)

It’s not half bad is it.

But what’s this low orbit ion cannon I’ve been hearing so much about??

Saving culture for the people.

refuse to lose the tweets from the best poster ever just because the worst poster ever shit his pants after a divorce.

here it is: every @dril tweet in chronological order, up & free forever. please share.

will continue to build it out for ease of use https://t.co/22wlJ3ropZ pic.twitter.com/p1KXkc2Q8q

the unholy emulsion

One of the first ads I've seen on Twitter in the last few days is from the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia saying, "Saudi Arabia is transforming. Follow us to learn how."

I’m writing stuff in a notebook and adding likes, one of my posts has gone viral

An advertiser explains why they’re pausing their Twitter ads campaigns: pic.twitter.com/jc0hBGzO4P

— Peter Yang (@petergyang) November 21, 2022

yeesh if that's typical it's p much doomed. the bit about turning discontinued campaigns back on is esp bad

randomly turning on paused ad campaigns from the last six years seems like a good revenue stream for twitter #billinghacks

xp I’ve been getting Limmy clips from his Twitch stream and they are excellent

(On my TikTok. Oof. Just woke up!)

It’s fun seeing the complaints about Mastodon’s lack of an algorithmic feed. I agree, for what it’s worth. But I hope people understand Twitter has been, despite their size and resources, the champion of RecSys for the past decade. I write “was” because I believe Musk canned all of these people.
