This person is incentivized to show off how glamourous and laid back it is rather than the actual work they are doing in the 8 hours around this 2 minute video, so I'm not sure why you'd be reminded of it.

So the government has boosted demand for groceries, thus causing them to be more expensive? How did more money get into the hands of consumers aside from that one-time $1500 paycheck?

I think there are still way more people forgetfully or even unknowingly calling it Twitter than there are people making fun of the name 'X'. I still type 'twitter.com' in my browser multiple times a day. If I mention a t

I don't see how that's the case. What reasons are you thinking they would abandon Linux after they've built the SteamDeck on it?

I'm asking this into the comment section, since I'm curious if anyone has checked: Does Zig fill this space in any way? It still allows manual memory management but offers more protections, the specifics I'm unclear on.

Yeah, I agree, doesn't necessarily have to be XML. But adding a highly productive UI layer on top of existing standards would be a great start.

Worth keeping in mind that during this period, there was only one frontend: the iOS app. It also offered a fraction of the functionality that modern IG/Twitter/FB/TikTok have now.

Images/videos were definitely boosted/prioritized, but external links also used to go viral pre-Elon, even a bit after he took over. Remember how mad he got about Substack? Now all external links are effectively blackholed from

> He doesn’t seem to understand the profile and iq of the average Twitter user and the type that drives “virality.” There was still an enormous (and arguably self-sustaining) population of "readers".

Ignoring that the major media orgs were still able to post links without being completely blackholed, Substacks and other blogs were still prominent and viral at the time as well. "Steering public discussion" is only partly relate

Pre-Elon Twitter was arguably the last major social media site that actually supported some subset of the "open web" people like to reminisce about here. Articles had the possibility of going viral because the old Twitter didn&#x2

> It is costly enough to use an old controller in non pro model phones I don't think it's that costly to continue to use the same SoC they just used in the outgoing models.

My bad, I was thinking about the Pro models' 10Gbps maximum and was looking for comparisons at that speed. I replaced what you wrote with the phone I had in my head!

HELOC isn't free money. You have to pay it back. Unless you're suggesting that you use the money to make bets.
