  1. It’s like the GOP wants to drive young people and women out to vote against them in November.
  2. Okay that’s insane. Nintendo said this: As of June 10, 2024, it will no longer be possible to post screenshots and videos to X (formerly Twitter) from the Nintendo Switch's Album, or send friend requests to social media users via the Friend Suggestions feature. Find out more: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/65057 And Twitter said this in response: The gaming community is one of the largest and most vibrant communities on our platform, and we are dedicated to enhancing and supporting gaming-related features. As part of Nintendo's planned discontinuation of sharing content to X from the Nintendo Switch, from June 11th, users will need to download Switch gameplay media directly to their smartphones and share it natively on our platform. We worked together with Nintendo throughout this process to ensure API access for this integration, but ultimately it was a product decision made by Nintendo. Our partnership with Nintendo remains strong, and we are working together to ensure a smooth transition for all users. We will continue collaborating with partners to bring new and exciting experiences to our global gaming community. Community note: This is in direct response to X changing their API. Specifically, X is charging companies upwards of $40,000 or more per month to access its API. Sony's PlayStation and Microsoft's Xbox already removed integration with X last year. uk.pcmag.com/sony-playstati… uk.pcmag.com/news/146559/mi… en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/de… ——- So Twitter has run off the Sony/PlayStation, Microsoft/XBox, and Nintendo platforms from posting directly on Twitter. All because Twitrer wanted to collect around $1.5 million (or more) a year from Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo, who had made it easy for millions of people to create a shitload of content on Twitter for free.
  3. Recent updates from Mosseri It’s important that people understand how their Threads posts perform, so we’re rolling out the ability to tap anywhere on a post to display its total view count. We’ve got more work to do, but I think this is a great first step in giving creators the some of the data they’ve been asking for. The ability to limit who can quote your Threads posts is now available to everyone. You can allow quotes from everyone on Threads, only the people you follow, or disable quote posts entirely. I hope this will help keep Threads a more positive place and give people more control over their experience. If you’ve been using this feature, would love to hear your thoughts. Quote control info: https://www.threads.net/@mosseri/post/C6O_DrvPIMv Smaller creators historically haven’t gotten their fair share of reach on Instagram, and we want to change that. So we’re making some changes to how we rank recommendations to give smaller creators a better chance of breaking through. We are rolling this out slowly but hope smaller creators start to see the benefits over the coming months. I should clarify this does not apply yet to Threads, but we’re exploring bringing some of these ideas to Threads ranking as well. I posted about some major changes to ranking that will affect both craters and aggregators this morning: we’ve started to replace a post that we’re recommending with the original one, if we can find it, and we are going to stop recommending posts from aggregators over the next few months. We doing plan to demote posts from any aggregators you follow. I should clarify we’re talking about exact content replication. So if you take someone’s photo or video and riff on it, maybe putting green screen video of yourself on top with your own commentary or making it into a meme with text, we consider that (mixed) original content. Today on Threads, we’re expanding Hidden Words, which until now only were applied to replies, so you can filter out unwanted content from feeds, search, profiles, and post replies on Threads. We’re also testing ways to select who can quote you and the ability to mute notifications on your posts. I hope these features give you more control over your experience on Threads and help keep it a place for positive conversation. Let me know what you think, especially if you’re in the tests. How hidden words work https://www.threads.net/@mosseri/post/C6O_LvgPtg1 We’re starting to test the *option* to archive posts with a small number of people. You can do this manually, for individual posts, or choose to automatically archive all posts after a certain period of time. If you want to make your post public again, you can always unarchive it whenever you’d like. I ran a poll white back and the resounding feedback was not to make this the default, so we’re gonna try it as an option.
  4. Women say “nudes in profile” a lot on Twitter, and in their profile is a link to their OnlyFans page or whatever, or a link to a site that redirects you. Or it just links to spam. Although it’s probably not women, and just bots.
  5. Congrats Elmo, “nudes in profile” is becoming a common response to serious stuff. NSFW
  6. Russia hammered Kharkiv last night, and are apparently trying to push 50,000 or so troops in that direction, but their supply vehicles are being taken out by drones, and it’s hard to say how much they’ve managed to move. Might explain this
  7. Tesla is his ATM though, which is why he was chasing that insane compensation.
  8. You’re telling us there was a sequel to Aliens…
  9. I don’t know - Trump is expected to lie and not be held accountable, and everybody, including him, knows he is lying. Noem is getting treated somewhat like DeSantis and RFK when they fuck up, but also like she should know better than to lie so blatantly. She’s being treated like an adult, unlike Trump. Also, Trump doesn’t care if you know he’s lying, he just plows ahead and usually doesn’t get flustered. Noem gets flustered in these interviews, and the interviewees are going to home in on that.
  10. They are limited to the Hobbit and LOTR books and their appendices, and the Gollum stuff is in the appendices. I wouldn’t be surprised if we get a Tom Bombadil movie.
  11. Hmmm…this maybe what the movie is about: Years later, Gandalf grew suspicious of a magic ring belonging to the hobbit Bilbo Baggins, which he later found to be Sauron's One Ring. Gandalf asked Aragorn to find Gollum, a creature who had previously possessed the Ring. This hunt led Aragorn across Rhovanion, and he finally captured Gollum in the Dead Marshesnorthwest of Mordor. Aragorn brought Gollum to King Thranduil's halls in Mirkwood, where Gandalf questioned him. Could be really good, but don’t know how they could recast Aragorn.
  12. we really can’t forget this one from earlier
  13. The Chinese version on Amazon has been interesting, but I prefer the Netflix version because it was easier to follow.
