This is not Space Force. This is an Air Force Space Command headquarters, and moving it to Alabama was a purely political move by Trump because leaving it Colorado keeps it near the other Air Force bases that would be utilizing it.

Pointless hyperbole much? Not one single Canadian?

Lived in Canada my entire life, never met a Canadian who thought the US had a better system.

“Twitter is on a mission to become the world’s most accurate real-time information source and a global town square for communication. That’s not an empty promise. That’s OUR reality.”

Ah yes. We must put a stop to all those non-compete clauses that are plaguing the food service industry workers, secretaries, meat packers, farmhands, call center employees etc.

Well... it strikes me as common sense that it probably doesn’t extend to him standing on a soap box shouting political opinions out to dozens of people randomly passing by in a park... but probably does extend to him running a talking-head show (strikingly similar to his FOX show) where he shares his political…

Could he not stand on a soapbox in the park and do the same thing without violating the non-compete?

The funny part is, 3rd party apps were designed to “play nice” by using the API. Now developers will have to go back to more I/O-intensive old-fashioned web-scraping of content, with the resultant degradation of performance that implies.

Came here to say this. Per Twitter:

This right here. The man had to send out step-by-step instructions on how to play a video on Twitter. I find it very hard to believe everyone followed those instructions perfectly and then a few million more.

I know there are zero standards around here, but 114 million people did not watch his first episode. Even if you believe the numbers Twitter puts on tweets, it only means 114 million people were served his video in their feeds. It’s unlikely more than a few percent of those “views” translated into actually watching…

Definitely shutting him up. Without question.

He hasn’t been terminated, they just pulled his show off the air. He’s still employed at Fox and drawing a paycheck. 

I think the “non-compete” clause is in EVERY contract that is signed by any big network. Just for such a case as we are see here. It’s like the morals clause, it’s just something that’s boiler-plate in all contracts these days. Just so the employer can bust your nads if they need to.

There is a reasonable approach and there is what Reddit tried to do. Reddit wanted to charge just the Apollo dev close to $20 million per year for API access. Like, are they fucking serious? Reddit only exists because nobody on Reddit is getting paid except for the higher ups. None of the mods are paid. What Reddit…

In April, Reddit announced that it would be charging companies for access to its application programming interface (API), much the same way Twitter opted to when CEO Elon Musk realized he wasn’t making enough money.

That hacking scene is actually kinda legit.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fsn_(file_manager)

Fun fact! That ridiculous 3D filesystem GUI that was obviously the result of Hollywood writers not knowing how computers work? That’s actually real! It’s the GUI of the Silicon Graphics IRIX computers, the computers used for the movie’s CGI. And yes, it IS UNIX! They obviously thought it would make for a cool-looking…
