After dealing with lots of bad PR from terrible decisions, Twitch now has to deal with one of its biggest streamers moving to another platform, Kick, with a deal larger than those of most athletes
He can't stream on twitch anymore if he broadcasts on kick though. Twitch just changed their streamer eula to say you cannot stream to any other web based live streaming service while streaming to twitch.
Which in its own might be a reason for people swichtng to kick if they have a YouTube viewership as well.
Twitch also tightened down on sponsorship in streams last week with such strict rules that they backpedaled due to community response. Seeing the timing of this deal makes me wonder if both changes might have played a party in xqc's decision.
If anyone is interested in the rebar, the guess is that it’s #11 or #14 gauge based on pictures that we’ve seen.
Which leaves me wondering if there’s a tie gun out there large enough or if these guys have to do it all by hand. (My quick search only shows guns capable of #8 and smaller)
Just going off of a quick stroll through the iOS app store (as of time of this post)
Apollo is the highest rated 3rd party reddit app at #11 in the News category (for comparison, the next highest was Narwhal at #75 within this same category)
Apollo does not however breach the top 200 apps app-store-wide. The official reddit app does at #52 overall. and enjoys the company of other ubiquitous apps like Hulu, Duolingo, Google Drive, and Disney+, all within 10 ranks of it on the overall list.
It does seem that reddit has crunched their numbers and gambled that 3rd party app users and the uproar they are in is a calculable loss against the groundswell of desktop and official reddit app users.
New at #11 on the album chart this week in 1981, "Present Arms", the second album by UB40. It peaked at #2, went Platinum, and even spawned a dub album "Present Arms In Dub" which reached the top 40 in its own right. #OffTheChart#NoiseboxRadio
Day #11 of cleaning up litter along my #Commute route.
Another 18 days has passed since my last cleanup.
I expanded my territory again (as well as cleaning up my existing stretch of road), and managed to get another tire, a television, some siding, and three more bags of miscellaneous trash.
For today's 2 chord, Gm7, we'll be using a Bb triad based on an open A triad. This puts our b3(Bb) on strings 4 & 1, our 5(D) on string 3, & our b7(F) on string 2. Remember, context is everything. In a vacuum, this is just a Bb chord, but in context it can work as a Gm7.
Play on! #JazzUkeChords#ukulele
@ojala Agreed. The root is great to ditch as you can move it down to get 6/13, b7, or 7. Move it up to get b9, 9, or #9. The 5 you can get the 11, #11/b5 below & the #5/b13, 13 above. This is how I put together a lot of the fancier chords I post. Chord voicing is a lot of fun & context changes everything. Cheers!
Two loops at Shelburne Pond today with surprisingly different feels. I didn’t think the loop away from the shore would be very interesting, but it had hemlocks, nice limestone/marble outcrops and cliffs. Very enjoyable. #52hikes#11#Vermont#Shelburne#hiking#FamilyHikes
Real estate shitposting: I really want to know what the design brief for this was: "build me a multimillion dollar house that looks as much like a crappy AirBnB as possible"?
(Photo #11 is what really puts it over the line for me. The amount of trauma that will be done to the future owner's toes by the trim on that idiot kitchen island ...)
#11 - SCREAM, released on February 19, 2020 on the album "Dystopia: The Tree of Language". It was the first kpop MV I ever saw, and the beginning of my journey... It's the beginning of the Dystopia trilogy and, while the story is about a witch hunt in the Middle Ages, it seems to be a metaphor for online hate in social media.

we recently sold out of our stock of Bus Pirates https://github.com/BusPirate/Bus_Pirate and when we booked a reorder we found it's currently unavailable with no ETA for re-stocking. it made us think about revisiting this design, perhaps using an RP2040 instead:
For the new year, I want to keep track of books I read here. Will (attempt to continue to) respond in thread with each as I complete it. My first book of 2023 was "The Box in the Woods" by Maureen Johnson. Very much enjoyed, as I did her earlier "Truly Devious" trilogy.

📣 Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️ (reddit.com)
