but most importantly, it's propaganda in support of the true state power, Capital.

state-owned media has always been the flag to verify a more trustworthy source of news.

without that line it means it’s owned by a western government or corporation.

I’m calling it now (though it’s kind of obvious) that some poo poo like that happened to this guy.

that's the latest version of that particular repository. there's no guarantee that they're actually running that version in production. the fact that they scrubbed the complete history of that project before publishing it means there's another, private repository somewhere with the full history

edit: yeah if they were actually doing anything with this repository beyond just letting it sit here there would actually be something here https://github.com/twitter/the-algorithm/blob/main/ci/ci.sh

True.

Elon got clowned enough in a public space about it to where he was like "WHA-!? I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT!" *disconnects space immediately* toward the whole thing when the source was released (and immediately this was found) to where I'd assume whoever didn't sanitize the code was immediately fired for embarrassing him.

The original person (the one at the top of the embed)'s reply to the ad's ad is one I've been getting constantly, probably because I know folks that play DnD/d20 and other systems, it "looks cool" for a dice art-thing, but seems impractical for actual rolling. I don't know if it's a scam like the quoted (bottom embed) ones, but I'm not sure WHY they'd advertise on Twitter given most of those folks are elsewhere.

These endless online stores is what got me to uninstall the twitter app, kicking third party twitter apps off is what got me to stop looking at twitter on my phone, the dog thing was enough for me to just deactivate all together.

I dunno how the actual financials of offsetting advertisers with a subscription cost, but it still baffles me that at multiple points in time i would have jumped to pay for twitter blue if it gave you zero promoted tweets. This "half ads" thing which is still not even available is so unappealing.
