Twitter finally sent employees who were laid off in November their separation agreements yesterday. The emails "point[ed] to a URL that was registered this morning from a vendor with a 1 star BBB rating," according to a former employee. The company then had to send a second note: "This email was an official company communication and is not a phishing attempt," it says. Twitter blamed "a court order obtained by plaintiffs' attorneys" for the delay in sending the agreements.

If you’re at the right place at the right time, with the right equipment, this is possible.

Last night, with guidance from https://transit-finder.com/, I positioned myself along the narrow line where the International #SpaceStation would pass between me and the nearly full moon.

I used a Fujifilm X-T4 shooting 4K video through a Celestron 8” SCT to capture the pass. Then, back at the computer this morning, put together these views with PIPP, Registax, and GIMP.

Quite pleased. My best yet.

I warned in November about multiple Twitter breaches (plural), hours before my account was suspended. Multiple threat actors, MULTIPLE breaches - all related to the same contact-sync feature. My warnings have been proven correct. https://9to5mac.com/2022/11/25/massive-twitter-data-breach/

Massive Twitter data breach was far worse than reported, reveal security researchers

A massive Twitter data breach last year, exposing more than five million phone numbers and email addresses, was worse than initially reported. We’ve been shown evidence that the same security vulnerability was exploited by multiple bad actors, and the hacked data has been offered for sale on the dark web by several sources. It had […]

Andy Ngo and Elon Musk apparently confirming that Musk personally suspended my Twitter account at Ngo's request, following Ngo's multiple failed attempts to silence my reporting on Ngo's ties to violent right-wing terrorist groups.

I call on Musk to release all his communications with Andy Ngo. Let's bring some transparency to Twitter. https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1611118439812456448

“@elonmusk The left are angry that the rules are being applied to their side now that enforcement is more equal. That’s what this is all about. “When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.””

NEW: Twitter is cutting employee benefits starting this quarter. Commuter benefits, family planning, and meal allowances are all out. Coffee and snacks are staying, per an internal email.

Reminder : Using Bitcoin blockchain is, by far, the most polluting human activity on earth.

"Looking at the blockchain, we find only 8.2 millions active users in the past year. This allows to compare the environmental footprint of Bitcoin with other activities, per active user."
