News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
I was coming on this thread to say "Anonymous better claim this and come out of stasis..."
Your comment made my day!
Did they tho? I don't see anything on the site that claims this attack
"they will be removed"
🐸
The attack started when Musk acquired Twitter and laid off everyone who wasn't an asshole.
Some of the people who stayrd are h1b slaves who cant leave
I understand that it can be immensely scary to leave a job and if the acquisition happened a week ago I'd be more forgiving but... they've had enough time, H1Bs have exit clauses that, especially someone fleeing Twitter for ethical reasons, could have used to find an alternative sponsor.
I do fucking hate H1B exploitation, but folks have had long enough at this point that the excuses runneth dry.
I was on an H1 programme, but not for a green card. Just until the TNs were fixed.
But these exit clauses? Never heard of 'em. We lived in abject fear of fucking up to the point of being fired, as that meant a moving truck super-fast. We were glad we had a company that paid us at par and also kept us on when it had to downsize for daring to sue IBM.
I shudder at the people trapped at Twitter and what they must see daily.
Most of the people involved in that cyberattack are wearing thigh high socks and cat ear headphones, and they’re much cooler than Musk would ever be.
What is "priaprism"?
I'll take "PP WORDS" for 600, Alex.
Having a janky wang doesn’t make Musk uncool in and of itself, lots of janky wang-havers are cool.
His insecurity about it, publicly, deprives him of any coolosity he ever could have had.
He is a man without potential or love.
The joke started out in my head as "stop, I can only get so hard!" And then I classed it up with medical terminology.
priaprism
I had to look this up, and wow, the image on the Wikipedia article for priaprism is... well, it's something.
One hour too late. Smh
Isn't that the same picture they used for the article on Biggus Dickus?
He in general underperforms in the coolness department. I have no interest in his man-noodle.
elons botched surgery prevents him from getting an erection.
Good thing the US is lowering its cybersecurity forces. 🤦
Good 😎
Imagine firing your entire IT team and then crying 'cyberattack' when the servers can't handle traffic.
🐱🐱🐱
I mean, they’re being DDOSed right now. But yeah, he fired anyone who would know how to mitigate a DDOS attack.
He can literally go and hire cloudflare to come in and help him fix it.
But I'm sure he needs someone experienced enough to manage that project.
Musk right now...
twitter still has 28,000 users? and they're active enough to report the outage?
Where do i sign up and help fight the Musk troll..
Big oh no anyway vibes.
Twitter as run by Musk— There has never been a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Didn’t trump shut down cybercrime investigations?
only against russia.
All the more reason for russia to try a cyberattack?
It would be best if it does not come back up.
I hope that there are more to come;-))
Must be the great hacker collective: N_competence
Edit: ~~Well, butter my buns and call me a biscuit. It seems like he might not’ve been lying on this one account.~~ Never mind. Looks like he is lying again.
He's blaming it on Ukraine which sounds like a false flag. He'll use this as the reason he has to cut off Starlink to the country.
Ahh Fuck
Tragic. Just tragic.
Oh no... anyway...
Lmao good thing your boys got their hands on sensitive shit, huh?
Fucking amateur hour.
Why is anyone even still using that product?
It's a propaganda engine for propaganda consumers.
I never noticed until this picture how much X looks like two swords crossed. Hmmm.
Oh goody, Anon must be back.
Don't care why it's down, but that's good news.
