Just finished my half marathon! My goal was 2 hours 15 minutes and I got a 2:14:28. New personal best! A bit sore, but this was my best race yet 😁

@BethFreemanArt Teal and light brown for some vibrant color with a grounding earth tone. Could have silver/pewter color appliances and fixtures to bring in the grey of Scotland ☁️

The vibe I want for our kitchen is Cozy Scottish-Mexican Hobbit Hole what paint colour does that speak to you

@lunityy Happy birthday Lunity!!

it’s my bday :) 🎈

@Sydios1 @StreamElements I requested payment at 7pm my time last night and I just received it. Hope you get every penny you're owed, Sydios!

@SimCopter_1 @StreamElements They still owe me a bunch of money do you think they will pay it out? Idk the support doesn't help?

Streamer friends: Check @StreamElements (if you use it), and see if you have any funds available for payout. I just saw that I have $540 under "SE Pay" that I apparently hadn't paid myself. With rumors that #StreamElements is shutting down soon, be sure to pay yourself out!

A note on our work to combat viewbotting, from CEO Dan Clancy: There’s been a lot of discussion recently about viewbotting on Twitch, and I wanted to share an update on our enforcement efforts. Viewbotting is bad for our business. We don't benefit from it, and we believe it harms the creator ecosystem overall. However, effectively combatting viewbotting is challenging. As we deploy updates to our real-time detection algorithms, viewbotting companies quickly respond with updates to avoid detection. Also, our detection systems must be precise to ensure that legitimate viewers are appropriately counted. Today, we’re introducing a new enforcement type that we plan to roll out over the next few weeks. For channels identified as persistently viewbotting, we will apply a cap to the streamer’s CCV for a fixed period of time, on all of the Twitch surfaces. The cap will be based upon historical data regarding that creator’s non-viewbotted traffic. Repeated violations will result in longer penalties. Streamers will be notified when an enforcement is applied, along with the duration of the penalty, and can appeal through the appeals portal. While streamers will be notified, we will not make a follow-on announcement when we begin issuing these enforcements, and will not publicly share details about when and where these enforcements are applied. Unfortunately, providing details simply makes it easier for companies to work around our interventions. We believe this approach will help us make meaningful progress against viewbotting. We will continue refining our systems and expand when we apply these enforcements over time. - Dan Clancy

@Jonsandman @Ask_Spectrum Silver lining: The best cursed emotes come from these streams 😂

Great 20 minute stream tonight! Appreciate @Ask_Spectrum for 3 weeks of this.

@merlin_thebard What a nightmare! Gotta be some weird torture enjoyment on their part. Anything tech-adjacent is full of sickos I tell ya 😂

Had an interview where they sprung a 2-hour long (with take home projects) "mock workday" on me in the middle of the intended meeting time. I had to pretend the interviewer was a client and work through several projects they had coming up. They passed and pulled the listing.

@KawaiiGuyCom Happy Birthday J! Hope it’s the best one yet ❤️

Today is my birthday. So you have to wish me a happy one, or your entire year will be cursed. Them’s the rules.

Post run glow 🏃

New headphones AND chair?! Thanks @fractalofficial 🥰 #ad Are you looking to upgrade your gaming setup? Check out Fractal products at frctl.co/SimCopter1

@beeswtheknees Ahh you’ll have a blast. The Netherlands is great, enjoy!!

My first time in Europe 🤩 who’s going!?

Planted some marigolds in the flower plot (and restained the wood) the boys say hi! 👋

Beautiful day at the slopes! The boys had so much fun at ski school 😁 @Sierra_at_Tahoe ⛷️

@mikethegratest @SandyofCthulhu And how could I forget The Great Escape? Ah so many great war films

@mikethegratest @SandyofCthulhu I think Saving Private Ryan is still the best. Flags of Our Fathers + Letters from Iwo Jima are really good as well. Band of Brothers takes the cake for series/mini-series. Shoutout to classics like Stalag 17, The Dirty Dozen, Tora! Tora! Tora!, Patton, and A Bridge Too Far

Here's nine war movies I think are equal to or greater than Saving Private Ryan, which I admit I also like. Four from America, two from Germany, one from England, one from India, and one from Korea.

@TheBloodyDrongo @Twitch congrats Drongo!! so proud of you dude, couldn't ask for a better ambassador 🫡

I deeply care about @Twitch's creators and it's communties. 4yrs ago when I went full-time I decided to do what I could to educate and advocate for my peers to make the platform a better place. Now I get to do it as a Twitch Ambassador!

@mikethegratest @SandyofCthulhu Grits are almost impossible to find here in Northern California 😔

@SandyofCthulhu I'm going to Nashville soon and the grits are one of the things I'm looking forward to the most.

I like shrimp, and I like grits, but for some reason the shrimp & grits combo almost never resonates with me. Maybe the restaurants I've tried them just sucked. Now cheesy grits are manna from above.

@Atrioc @jimcramer Not the community note 😂

@jimcramer what do you think happened next in vietnam jim cramer

If the infrastructure is not taken out and the money is not taken away why should Iran come to the peace table. They are taunting us with $200 oil. They do not have the cards; our military must be unleashed. Time to do what we did to Hanoi...to get them to the table

@Jonsandman Disneyland 100% California Adventure is still fun for 3-4 hours, but I think it’s better for teens, foodies, folks who like to drink. More thrill rides at California Adventure, but not as fleshed out or magical as Disneyland imo

@SimCopter_1 Are you a Disneyland or California adventure guy???? Which do you prefer

Where are all my Disneyland (California) people? I’m definitely not a fan but the wife really would love to rock a trip this year cause the kids would absolutely love it. Any good deals, tricks for the fast pass, best hotels, insider knowledge. I’ll take anything.
