Seems very silly to me. There is no big difference before and after Musk except that people are talking a lot about Musk - it'll die down in a bit. I love Twit

Seems very silly to me. There is no big difference before and after Musk except that people are talking a lot about Musk - it'll die down in a bit. I love Twitter and use it a lot. I hope it doesn't die though I acknowledge that's possible. It certainly hasn't died yet though - despite much waiting and gnashing of teeth.

  I wonder if that's one of the "unnecessary" microservices that was turned off recently.

  I see full movies and TV shows on YouTube pretty frequently and have for years. Is YouTube likewise breaking? Won't this tweet just get a DMCA takedown rather than break the platform?

    How many Full Hollywood movies can you find on youtube right now?

      Just search for "full movie" and filter for videos > 20minutes and you'll find some immediately. Youtube is falling apart!!! Google will not exist 6 months from now, the cracks are showing!!

      I searched "full movie" on YouTube and the first result I had was for Home Alone. Looks like it is the full movie and the account that posted it does not seem connected to Fox or Warner Bros or any "official" movie studio. Seems like a random person who claims in the video description that uploading Home Alone is "fair use". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owDd4zify-A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owDd4zify-A I am not a copyright or intellectual property or legal expert - but my intuition says that Home Alone is probably as copyrighted as the movie Hackers (both older movies). Home Alone has been up for 3 weeks on YouTube with 435k views. By contrast, the tweet linked above showing that "Twitter is breaking" has already been removed (less than a day). Perhaps Home Alone is public domain or something, or whoever owns the intellectual property wants it shared like this. Not sure how I would check that, but I have seen lots of movies and TV shows like this on YouTube (sometimes with modifications to the sound or image to avoid automatic filtering). If Home Alone is free I'm sure I could find another example.

  Twitch had an entire video game category that was hosting multiple 24/7 Morbius streams going back in April. Is Twitch broken?

Partisans are worried he'll let Trump come back... and as of a few hours ago he did just that. This is nothing more than a last act of political posturing by insiders and their allies who got thrown out. The furor will die down after a while and things will go back to normal... at least for Twitter, anyway. The Fediverse, OTOH, will be invaded by virulent activists who will lash out and anyone and everyone who doesn't violently agree with them on everything. I'm sure that will be fun to watch.
