@BenjaminHouy It's because they have zero arguments, so all they can do is virtue signal for their peer group.

Lived in Düsseldorf for a year. The pattern is exhausting. Someone spends 45 minutes making arguments for why they're leaving Germany. Response: a tweet calling it "engagement farming" and diagnosing "cultural conditioning" in a "specific subset of people." Zero engagement with the substance. Just contempt for anyone with diverging opinions.This is why I left.

@Alt_Azn I mean you can stop reading after the author's name.

The Sabrina Carpenter incident reminded me of this Atlantic article originally titled “Why do White People Love Quiet?”. The author was shocked that when she went to an Ivy League school her classmates expected her not to blast music at 2 in the morning. Instead of internalizing this is how normal people act she made it racial.

@nikitabier @DailyLoud ouch

Just to be clear: You copy and paste. You do not add any unique commentary. You leverage your follower count to take impressions from other posts. Our users derive no value from this. You are welcome to continue to do this, but it does not create any business value for X or enrich our timeline.

I mean its pretty genius what x is doing because they just won’t have to pay anyone out and they will hope the creators will stay because they aren’t going to leave their fanbase

@angelwakingup2 @Suffragent_ @nikitabier @EFF A million things can fall under a category "unauthentic behavior". You don't even know if certain content you published was the reason, or the account as such, for example because of suspicious IPs (using VPNs has been a huge headache for me). It's useless.

@dormantdev @Suffragent_ @nikitabier @EFF You're right, it doesn't give the EXACT reason, but it DOES give a generalized reason and what specific label the account has been given, warranted or not. It's far from perfect, that's true.

Whoever is advising @EFF on social strategy should be fired. Their reach on their X account is 13.3x larger than on their Instagram account—and on 228x larger than their TikTok account. If they want their foundation to have an impact on the global conversation, the only place is on X.

@angelwakingup2 @Suffragent_ @nikitabier @EFF It opens a boilerplate help article. Never has told you what specifically you did wrong to restrict your reach. Also the "label" regularly only shows up several days after the restriction kicks in. Entire system is messed up.

@dormantdev @Suffragent_ @nikitabier @EFF It does, lol. I know because it's happened to me. Multiple times.

@angelwakingup2 @Suffragent_ @nikitabier @EFF It doesn't.

@Suffragent_ @nikitabier @EFF You get that if you click on it, it will tell you why you're restricted, right?

@sergeynazarovx Brilliant idea to make the document number and photo public.

@RekTradinCrypto @volcaholic1 Braindead to compare steps on flat land to stairs.

@volcaholic1 x.com/i/status/20419… >With a climb that takes 4-6 hours up 7200 steps, it's like a Stairmaster on steroids. 😂 I do 8,000 steps every day in less than 60 minutes. It's the absolute minimum for working out to not become a lazy couch potato.

If you're planning to conquer Mount Tai Shan in China, make sure your legs are up for the challenge! With a climb that takes 4-6 hours up 7200 steps, it's like a Stairmaster on steroids. And don't forget, what goes up must come down 🤣

@aqertwy @RobedBee @KaiLentit You're from the US. In most parts of your country you need a government permit for a kitchen or bathroom remodel.

@RobedBee @KaiLentit In free countries that's not a thing.

I see a €10.000 fine. Bavaria’s garage ordinance defines a garage parking space by its purpose: “A parking space is the area used for parking a motor vehicle in a garage.” Changes of use require approval: “The construction, alteration, and change of use of structures require a building permit ...” - Article 55(1) of the Bavarian Building Code (BayBO)."

@subay_0 @JohnnotJon Why would you fake a quote and then "correct" it with what the post actually says? >Cracked cryptography libraries

@JohnnotJon Cracked “AES-GCM”, I hope you understand this is mathematically impossible. Maybe it just found some bugs in some libraries used to use it.

If you still have doubts about Claude Mythos, here's what it did already: > Found a 27-year-old OpenBSD bug in one of the most security-hardened operating systems on earth for <$50 > Broke into a production virtual machine monitor (basically the tech that keeps cloud workloads from seeing each other's data) > Turned Firefox vulnerabilities into working exploits 181 times > Found a 16-year-old FFmpeg bug that survived every fuzzer, every code audit, and every human reviewer since 2010 > Wrote a FreeBSD exploit that gives any unauthenticated attacker on the internet full root access. No human was involved after the first prompt. > Chained 4 separate vulnerabilities together to build a browser exploit that escaped both the renderer and the OS sandbox > Found critical holes in every major web browser and every major operating system > Gave Anthropic engineers with zero security training a complete and working exploit by morning > Cracked cryptography libraries protecting TLS, AES-GCM, and SSH

@aqertwy @KaiLentit Heard of neighbors

@KaiLentit Why does the government knows how your house is from the inside?

@arthurpress805 @tunguz Those houses along the bay are an eyesore anyways, tear em all down!

@dormantdev @tunguz There's literally dozens of people who would stop there every year...dozens!

As someone who has driven up and down the West coast, and through each and every one of those cities in particular, I think this is a terrible idea. Most of those places are tiny and with no need of high speed rail. Highway 1 that connects them is one of the most beautiful and scenic drives in the country, surrounded by pristine unspoiled nature for long stretches. A major construction project would destroy all of it.

@CompletedStreet x.com/i/status/20415…

Imagine this, but with every city connected with high speed rail.

@RickACamp @MadelaineLucyH And this is including patients with pre-existing conditions x.com/i/status/20414…

@MadelaineLucyH I don’t know of a single 20 something year old who died of Covid. There are many thousands of 20 something year olds in my community, most everyone caught Covid at least once, and no deaths?

Ok let’s look at survivorship bias. Odds of dying from COVID as a healthy 20 year old: 1 in 1000. Odds of dying from COVID as an 80 year old? 12 in 100. So yes. You are, statistically, “fine”. But the people who weren’t fine and didn’t get the vaccine? Dead. And that’s before we get into you not spreading it.

@RickACamp @MadelaineLucyH She proudly shares fake stats, 1 in 1000 for healthy 20 year olds is of course bs. x.com/i/status/20414…

@MastcellMadness @MadelaineLucyH Reading comprehension.

@dormantdev @MadelaineLucyH "Long COVID is an often debilitating illness that occurs in at least 10% of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections." nature.com/articles/s4157…

@Stern_66 Du musst schon lesen, was du da teilst. >Liste von Orten ..., die früher einen nennenswerten deutschen Bevölkerungsanteil hatten. Karpin bei Łódź war zu keinem Zeitpunkt "deutsch", jedenfalls gibt es dafür keine Quelle, nicht mal die Karte aus 1938(!) behauptet dies.

@dormantdev Liste ehemals deutsch besiedelter Orte im Raum Łódź – Wikipedia share.google/5OLcdAzeifjVQZ… Es war eine deutsche Siedlung, dass davor bereits das Dorf defacto existierte, war ein Fehler meinerseits

Diese Art von Dörfern ist sehr üblich bei deutschen Kolonisten Hier Karpin bei Lodz, gegründet um 1800 von Pommern. Schaut man sich die ex deutschen Dörfer da an, sehen die fast alle so aus. Diese Form ist eben praktisch für Landwirte, man sieht aber auch wie "geplant" alles ist

@MadelaineLucyH @CobGreat None of what's discussed here has anything to do with "hindsight".

@CobGreat @dormantdev Hindsight is always 20/20. We operate with the knowledge we have at the time.

@komibleh @Stern_66 Has to be rage bait. Villages like this, which was neither founded in 1800 nor by Pommeranians and was never German, came into existence because the shape is convenient for agriculture. The prime purpose of rural settlements until very recently.

@Stern_66 The growth of villages like this into just long spats of houses near a road instead of normal strong towns and medium sized towns only proves how terrible Polish urban planning really is
