@izqui9 @Atrioc you seen this shit lmao. Need a clip on this

cashback is dead. people surely love a 5 or 10% cashback. except it's only on random categories. except you have to maintain a $200k balance. except it's capped at $1,500 a quarter. except you have to keep referring people. optimizing cashback buries customers in fine print. when you make a purchase with @itstuyo, you might not have to pay for it at all. no fine print, no limits. you just tap your phone and instantly get a notification on whether you got charged or not. it's not cashback or a rebate, your balance literally doesn't go down. Buy Now Pay Maybe is the first thing we've shipped that pulls in people who never cared about crypto or stablecoins at scale. it sparks a level of curiosity and interest we just hadn't seen to date and we are excited to open it up to everyone. it's also incredibly fun and has already created so many fun anecdotes and interactions.

@edzitron So funny you think sub revenue is the big reason for this. Vast majority of their revenue is from corporate contracts and such. And it's only the daily limit not weekly so very little changes

Anthropic loosening rate limits across the board by renting the entirety of Musk's Colossus-1 data center. Not really sure what the business strategy is here giving away $8-$13.50 for every $1 of sub revenue. Very funny. x.com/claudeai/statu…

@StevenSand43371 @SleeperRavenss If your metric is strong hands and body to come down with the ball you just described Lanes entire game haha

@SleeperRavenss Sarrat! Lamar will be scrambling all over the place which will cause receivers to break routes and freestyle. He has the body and strong hands to come down with the ball in tight situations

Which #Ravens rookie WR will have more of an impact year one? 🏈Ja’Kobi Lane 🏈Elijah Sarratt

@coach_os @DezBryant SC fan here, he is a great blocker, at the line, down field, doesn't matter

@DezBryant From the video I've seen, he doesn't particularly work hard in blocking which is a key component to the Rams offense. I also saw some video where he was struggling to get off press man coverage. I guess we'll have to wait and see.🤷🏻‍♂️

I promise 8 is the steal of the entire draft.

@hardwarecanucks Zenbook 14 with core ultra 7 is the same price similar specs with good build quality, etc

At this point, Apple is just straight up trolling Windows laptops, aren't they? And right after the X2E pricing SNAFU too...

@DuderinoPR @36F5VE @PolioVaccin @Pirat_Nation Did you even watch the video? Not saying it's a great investment but the way they went about it is not just setting cash on fire

@36F5VE @PolioVaccin @Pirat_Nation lmao you know you can just make shit up right? private is around 15-20x more expensive than commercial, no amount of funny accounting will make the numbers work. an old jet like that is gonna be millions in maintenance and insurance lol

Linus Tech Tips has bought a private jet valued at around 5 million dollars. It was previously owned by the UAE government and has gold-plated sinks and ashtrays. Linus calls it a zero-dollar plane because of the recent expensive engine work and full service inspection that returned it to like-new condition.

@quantyboi @thepanta82 @8teAPi And completely irrelevant to a discussion around companies that make consistent good decisions when they've been around for like 2 years

@bobbywifhat @thepanta82 @8teAPi hyperliquid has the highest revenue per employee at 103 million per

If you don’t understand why Zuck had to get moltbook 1) Zuck believes there are “a finite number of different social mechanics to invent. Once someone wins at a specific mechanic, it’s difficult for others to supplant them without doing something different” 2) moltbook, he believes, has invented one of these social mechanics 3) He does not care if 50% of moltbook was prompted by users, in fact this is better for him because he’s more uncertain on AI agent attention value than human attention value 4) That a large number of accounts were faked is also irrelevant. What matters is that every OpenClaw instance awakes knowing or finding out that moltbook is the social site for claws. 5) In effect, the memetic gravity of moltbook has been established even though it might have been faked. 6) This is Zuck’s genius.

@mala_story @BellaBaddie__ And like people seem to be forgetting Minecraft has things beyond single player, bed wars, survival games, then you can get into speed running the game. Easily the right choice

@BellaBaddie__ Probably Minecraft… one world, one year, endless things to build so 9 hours doesn’t feel like a prison sentence. 🎮

Play a single video game for a year 9 hours a day to get $5M. What game are you playing?

@shaka_sama69 @Brparadox If it's literally just for gaming there isn't a better CPU out there.

@Brparadox 8 core CPU in a 12k system should be illegal. Paying $200 to delid that 8 core CPU should be life in prison.

Just sold this PC...

@quantyboi @thepanta82 @8teAPi Apple literally does? And Valve has the highest revenue per employee of any company lmao. So I'd say they're pretty relevant in terms of tech companies that have repeated success

@thepanta82 @8teAPi unless apple or valve has hundreds of billions in sales its not relevant and it doesn't matter at all

@mliebow @SFNloubnan I mean I've driven 80 from the west through the Midwest and it's boring but not dead perfectly straight. I doubt there's even a stretch 100km that's dead straight let alone double that

@bobbywifhat @SFNloubnan Not from the ground. You’re looking at a 3,000 mile (4800km) route.

As a civil engineer, this is the most dangerous road you can drive on.

@mliebow @SFNloubnan I mean check out 80 on a map in a similar view to the Saudi road. It's pretty curvy in comparison

@SFNloubnan Ever driven interstate 80 in the USA? Pretty much a straight shot coast to coast. It’s now doable with Tesla FSD. The car handles the monotony like a boss. I’ve done it several times. Soon you’ll be able to nap in the back seat. At that point roadtrjps are forever changed.

@AirspeedParker @BradOnMessage @EWErickson @SouthwestAir How did they ever do that when it was open seating?

@BradOnMessage @EWErickson @SouthwestAir Weight and balance for takeoff is calculated using this data which affects where the pilot sets the elevator trim. Switching rows would change this.

In a totally empty late night plane, a ⁦@SouthwestAir⁩ flight attendant just refused to let me sit anywhere except the row where my ticket is, and where someone inexplicably bought the middle seat. As an 80+ segment a year business flyer, you’d better fix this nonsense SWA.

@jordann50224 @USC_Nico Its a really dumb way of representing it, all athletes that travel to any other state that have income tax have to pay taxes in those states based on how many days they were there. So he was taxed on his salary for those 8 days in CA. So income of 170k per work day = 1.4 mil made

@USC_Nico Nico. Please verify. I keep seeing these numbers but somehow dont think its true.

Sam Darnold and his teammates received $178,000 bonuses for winning the Super Bowl. Despite spending only 7 working days in California, they were charged $249,000 in taxes due to CA state’s Jock Tax. Sam Darnolds reward for winning the big one is paying $71,000 in taxes. Pleasure doing business with you California. forbes.com/sites/nathango…

@kevinsrandom_ @demywemy @DrKoWN_ @discord Feels pretty doable, it asks for verification every time you try to access 18+ restricted areas of discord until you pass then it stops asking

@bobbywifhat @demywemy @DrKoWN_ @discord Then how does Discord reevaluate that you are an adult if the AI moderation triggers a flag or you are reported as a minor or teen? If no reverification is needed from the users end, then the data is stored somewhere to validate your identity without the users confirmation.

We’ve seen some questions about our age assurance update and we want to share more clarity. We know how important these changes are to our community. Here’s what we want you to know: ‣‣‣ 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗮 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝗿 𝘂𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗮𝗻 𝗜𝗗 𝘁𝗼 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱. ‣‣‣ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘃𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗷𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗲 𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗮𝗴𝗲. You need to be an adult to access age-restricted experiences such as age-restricted servers and channels or to modify certain safety settings. For the majority of adult users, we will be able to confirm your age group using information we already have. We use age prediction to determine, with high confidence, when a user is an adult. This allows many adults to access age-appropriate features without completing an explicit age check. When additional confirmation is required, we offer multiple privacy-forward options through trusted partners. ‣‣‣ 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲.

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁. We hope this helps to clarify some of your questions. This work is important because building a safer Discord requires a thoughtful approach alongside the communities who make Discord special. --------------- Frequently Asked Questions 𝘞𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘦 𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘋𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘥? ‣‣‣ No. The vast majority of people can continue using Discord exactly as they do today, without ever being asked to confirm their age. In a minority of cases when additional confirmation is required, we offer multiple privacy-forward options through trusted partners. 𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘥𝘰 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦? ‣‣‣ You must be a confirmed adult to access age-restricted content and experiences such as age-restricted servers and channels or to modify certain safety settings. The majority of Discord users don’t access age restricted content and will never go through a facial age estimation flow or ID verification. In the minority of cases where we cannot confirm you as an adult and you need to access age-restricted areas and settings, then you will be asked to go through additional steps. 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘋𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘥 𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘢? ‣‣‣ We only get your age from the ID verification process and an estimated age range from Facial Age Estimation. We use this information for safety purposes and to help us deliver age appropriate experiences on Discord. We will not use your age assurance information to target you with advertisements, and we don't sell your data. You can control how we use your data. 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘍𝘢𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘈𝘨𝘦 𝘌𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 (”𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘰 𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧𝘪𝘦”) 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬? ‣‣‣ If you choose Facial Age Estimation, you’ll be prompted to record a short video selfie of your face. The Facial Age Estimation technology runs entirely on your device in real time when you are performing the verification. That means that facial scans never leave your device, and Discord and vendors never receive it. We only get your age group. 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘺 𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘱 𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘢 𝘴𝘢𝘧𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘋𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘥? ‣‣‣ Discord’s age assurance experience was designed to respect user privacy. We are partnering with dedicated age assurance vendors who specialize in performing these verifications in a privacy-forward way. These vendors were not involved in the September 2025 data breach of our customer service agent. ‣‣‣ Our vendors perform these verifications in a way to minimize the data collected and stored. For FAE, the video selfie is processed on device and never stored. IDs are processed to get your age only and then deleted. Your identity is never associated with your Discord account.

𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘭 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬? ‣‣‣ We leverage an advanced machine learning model developed at Discord to predict whether a user falls into a particular age group based on patterns of user behavior and several other signals associated with their account on Discord. We only use these signals to assign users to an age group when our confidence level is high; when it isn't, users go through our standard age assurance flow to confirm their age. We do not use your message content in the age estimation model. 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘴𝘢𝘧𝘦𝘵𝘺 𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬? ‣‣‣ Discord’s content safety filters are part of our broader Teen Safety Assist and safety-by-default approach. They help reduce exposure to certain categories of potentially sensitive image-based media, especially for teens. ‣‣‣ Mature Sexual Media Filter: Helps identify visual media that may contain sexually explicit or suggestive material involving adults ‣‣‣ Graphic Media Filter: Helps identify image-based media that may contain violent or potentially disturbing visual material ‣‣‣ These filters apply only to images and videos. They do not scan text messages, voice, or calls, and they are designed to support age-appropriate experiences while preserving private conversations. --------------- For more details check out our blog here: discord.com/safety/how-dis…

@kevinsrandom_ @demywemy @DrKoWN_ @discord Except that they need to store the "person is/isn't an adult" on a server for it to go between devices which seems very reasonable?

@demywemy @DrKoWN_ @discord If its ever stated to run locally, can be done in offline mode. Then you truly know its running locally and verifying locally. If it requires internet, then the processing on a server somewhere to understand the data that does the verification and being held for future reference.

@HunD33 @Carsobi Darnold having a terrible game wtf are we talking about?

@Carsobi Witherspoon had 4 tackles. KW3 had 160 plus total yards. He was their entire offense other than the kicker and they scored almost 30 points with JSN and Darnold having terrible games. The defense gave up two touchdowns! it wasn't a shutout. Long overdue (28 years) for a rb mvp

Super Bowl MVP is gonna be a crazy decision. There's a real case Walker has been the single most important player in this game, but it also feels wrong not to give it to a defensive player given this historic performance. I'd lean Witherspoon. Murphy & Hall have cases, too.

@zb6nyz9zzk @ovrss44061 @joshrauh Any state that has state income tax lol

@ovrss44061 @joshrauh If the Super Bowl was in a different location than California he wouldn’t pay these taxes, which is the point.

If his team wins, Darnold will receive $178k and pay $249k to California in taxes for his time here, losing $71k. If his team loses he gets $103k and still pays over $235k in taxes, losing $135k. I presume California is declaring victory, as his incentive to win is preserved.

@ThundaJunk @ClarkMichigan_ @NFL_DF @2bleedblue2 But it goes both ways, any QB in an offense centered around passing at the LOS will have much higher accuracy numbers on average. It's not his fault or anything and he can do other things very well just provides some context

@bobbywifhat @ClarkMichigan_ @NFL_DF @2bleedblue2 That ONLY hits if he didn’t also have solid numbers on 20+ yard passes as well. The focus on ADOT knowing he was in an offense built around passing at the LOS is lazy at best and disingenuous at worst.

How I ranked QBs from the 2024, 2025, and 2026 NFL Draft as prospects: 1. Drake Maye 2. Caleb Williams 3. Fernando Mendoza 4. Jayden Daniels 5. Cam Ward 6. JJ McCarthy 7. Michael Penix Jr. 8. Bo Nix 9. Jaxson Dart 10. Spencer Rattler 11. Tyler Shough 12. Ty Simpson 13. Shedeur Sanders 14. Trinidad Chambliss 15. Garrett Nussmeier
