Holy shit. So Elon decides it would be nice to know what region of the world people are posting from. So they add that little feature.
2 hours later they figure out that many Trump supporters with millions of followers are posting from other countries. Surprise!
That "feature" is now gone.

Look I hate to say this, but this project raised a LOT more money than the DS9 documentary and made BIG promises. And after 5 years it’s delivered a movie that’s not to the same standard as the DS9 documentary with a lot of farce and delays. Very disappointing.
Nearly five years after its massive crowdfunding campaign, the team behind the still-unreleased STAR TREK: VOYAGER documentary explain the project's delays

Some of us have been advocating this going back since chatGPT launched. It also has other benefits: correcting someone else's work is actually a really good way to learn something yourself.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

This is the kind of thing I think about when someone complains that universal basic income would make people dependent on the government for survival. You instead want to depend on Tyson Foods for your survival? Do you get to vote on what corporations do??

thinking about how my parents escaped vietnam, where the CIA destabilized my family's home country by spreading misinformation, and they landed in the united states, which is now getting destabilized bc someone in vietnam is spreading misinformation
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Between this and literal Nazis growing their followings, I just can’t understand why so many lefties are still voluntarily using the platform. I know I’m preaching to the choir, but…

(6/X) The right is united around hating the left. That trumps every other possible concern, including prominent fellow travelers becoming Nazis. The left is always worse. No one on the right cares about Republicans becoming Nazis. No one.

Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.
One of the bragging rights that the US ed system had in the 20th century is that we didn't have education tracks. Essentially, any kid could go to a CC or state school & major in whatever they wanted to (obviously an oversimplification). I fear this aspect of the American dream is dying.
