Well, it finally happened. Twitter has suspended my account, likely because in November 2022 I changed the display name of my account to "[email protected]." I haven't used it since, except to login every once in a while to keep the account from being reused by bots. Oh the irony in that the account was suspended for: "Violating our rules against inauthentic behaviors."

And so it goes

#faceplace is turning into #birdsite . rage bait and just a couple smatterings of something a friend did 3 months ago.

Can we now say without hesitation or reservation that Elon Musk is not a good businessman? This beautiful headline about the birdsite from The Atlantic in November last year. About their then latest disastrous new feature. Accidentally revealing what we all already knew.

"Elon Musk’s Worthless, Poisoned Hall of Mirrors"

Well that was fun.

For those who didn't see the shenanigans on #birdsite - turns out my router was garbage. You know, the one the ISP said was _required_ to use their network? It was trash and killing my connection.

Pulled it and ran from the ONT straight to my Eero and had network just fine. But all of my NUCs are hardwired ... so needed a new TP-Link router in front of my 1GB switch before I could get k8s back online.

So glad to have things live again.

Projects, companies, or YouTube channels that still link to a "Twitter" account are doing their users and the internet a gross disservice.

Twitter is gone. It no longer exists. There is X, a fascist propaganda and GenAI revenge porn site, that happened to buy Twitter's database before shutting it down. But that's not Twitter.

Giving X any karma or nostalgia because Musk bought Twitter's user database before destroying it is foolhardy and dangerous, and irresponsible.

OK, so I spent a few days on the #birdsite, and I learned to fear its algorithm. Why? Because once I began interacting with a few tweets about one same topic, all I saw were posts about that topic. The birdsite got really boring then.

Why do people tolerate such nonsense?
