I'll make out just fine if this is so, but can you not play embedded Twitter videos on ILX or third-party sites now, or is there a glitch in my browser? I can still play YouTubes.

Dick pic thing apparently a hoax, no need to be making up stuff about him, there's plenty to go on already!

It's a promising idea for a sitcom, writer has a minor disagreement on Twitter about something, obsesses about it and ends up destroying his life just because he can't bear to be wrong once. Pretty dark sitcom, in the upside the wage bill for actors would decrease as the show progressed.

Fucking delighted for him. He can fuck off to Parler with the rest of them.

did they change what gets included in the number of RTs? i'm suddenly seeing tweets with like 5x more RTs than likes. mainly on ratio'd tweets though. it's messing up my frame of reference. this is extremely important
― ℺ ☽ ⋠ ⏎ (✖), Saturday, 27 June 2020 22:51 (three years ago) link
either they're now including replies to RTs as RTs or they're including quote tweets as RTs and they weren't before? that would make sense i guess
― ℺ ☽ ⋠ ⏎ (✖), Saturday, 27 June 2020 22:53 (three years ago) link
The latter, I understand
― Andrew Farrell, Saturday, 27 June 2020 23:11 (three years ago) link
Any action to bring about the death of the ratio is of course good, in itself and as a step towards the death of Twitter.

correct analysis:
"the ratio," in the classic sense, is a worn out cliche but ever since they started counting quote tweets youre now capable of seeing a whole new form of it pic.twitter.com/r8h0yvgyad— Rich Lather (@allahliker) June 26, 2020
― mark s, Sunday, 28 June 2020 12:32 (three years ago) link
also correct (from Billy Budd, Sailor): "Now there can exist no irritating juxtaposition of dissimilar personalities comparable to that which is possible aboard a great war-ship fully manned and at sea. There, every day among all ranks almost every man comes into more or less of contact with almost every other man. Wholly there to avoid even the sight of an aggravating object one must needs give it Jonah's toss or jump overboard himself. Imagine how all this might eventually operate on some peculiar human creature the direct reverse of a saint?"

just got this NYT alert:
"The twitter accounts of several prominent figures appears to have been hacked - including Joe Biden, Kanye West, Bill Gates and Elon Musk"
― The GOAT Harold Land (Karl Malone), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 21:47 (three years ago) link
would this be a hack into twitter's database? how else would you get into so many different people's accounts?
― The GOAT Harold Land (Karl Malone), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 21:49 (three years ago) link
Within hours of the tweets appearing, nearly 300 people had fallen for the scam, sending more than $100,000 to the wallet.
― scampos mentis (gyac), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 22:00 (three years ago) link
Feel like this must be some exploit because all those people are going to have security on their accounts right? It’s not like lifting some pleb’s details off a database.

They’re still getting away with it. Kim Kardashian hacked three minutes ago.
Strongly speculated that they’ve hacked a Twitter employee with access to whole account database.

― Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 22:12 (three years ago) link
The theory I saw that seemed plausible is someone hijacked a service authorized to tweet on behalf of users, eg people used a 3rd party app to schedule tweets, and that app got hacked.Twitter itself being compromised is less likely, but not out of the question.
