Seems like a nice idea but I'm gonna place a bet here and say that this will be heavily gamefied by those fake Elon Musk streams trying to sell crypto or something similar.

This could also be exploited by those who use info stealers to hijack browser sessions and hype fraudulent streams.

I just wish we could also sort the leaderboard by category. I have no interest in gossip or drama.

Yes... But no.

They don't need to plot anything. We are already consuming oxygen and replacing it with carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide.

Or perhaps this was their plan all along??

DUN DUN DUNNN

I think you might be interested on this Wikipedia article: Trepanning

Yeah, this left a bad taste.

At least he revoked this section of the decision a couple hours later.

You're right but IMO that part of the article that you highlighted should be the news, not the "we should make Musk do something".

Musk is a billionaire that thrives on attention so any form of headline that cites his name is playing his game.

Twitter is a company with investors. They should be accountable to what happens in their domain. And not by having their wrist slapped because -- for the nth time -- something bad happened. Media should be saying by now that Twitter is a bad place. Like they did with other social networks before.

I'm not sure if Twitter has "responsibilities" to begin with. It has what we - as a society - give it the legitimacy to have.

I'm not particularly fond on the idea that PC is "superior to console". I just don't own a console because:

  • The games are cheaper
  • It has retro compatibility built in
  • I can justify spending money on parts to my PC because it's also the tool I use to work with.

In the same vein of being played to the death: Pharrell Williams.

I lasted about 4 answers until I remembered that TAS in this context means The Animated Series and not Tool Assisted Speedrun

Maybe it's the wig but I feel like that head doesn't belong to that body

I genuinely don't know. Their name was just the first one that came to my mind.
