Hololive in two minutes and twelve seconds.
Right down to the technical problems.
She didn't take the railroad from the spawn point, so we're still waiting to see someone react to Gura's efforts on the weekend.

Tech News
- The first regular launch of SpaceX's Crew Dragon is on its way. (Space.com)
Complete with Baby Yoda.
- A list of issues with MacOS Big Sur. (Mr Macintosh)
Up to and including bricking older Macbooks so hard that they need their logic boards replaced.
- Parler suspends users for trolling and hate speech. (MSNBC)
The usual suspects are very confused. This is exactly what they want social networks to do, but the social network that is doing it is the one they are supposed to hate.
- Wordpress suspends sites for, well, whatever. (The Conservative Treehouse)
At no point did Wordpress actually say why the Treehouse was being kicked off the platform. The usual excuse for this is that if the tell you what the rules are you will be able to avoid breaking them.
Orwell in one hand, Kafka in the other.
Someone in the comments suggested mu.nu as an alternative platform, but my experience with Wordpress sites is that they always, always get hacked, and I'm already about 400% busy and wouldn't be available to deal with that.
- Update: Comments from a company that specialises in Wordpress hosting.
- And more.
Free Republic is doing an urgent server migration because their hosting provider is, well, atrocious. (Free Republic)
"We're closing down that datacenter in May of next year, so please plan ahead to migrate all your servers."
"Wait, did we say May? We meant tomorrow."
- The OnePlus 8T is a great phone with a great camera - about half the time. (Thurrott,com)
The other half it's a blurry mess.
The camera, that is.
Maybe the phone too. The review doesn't mention that.
- iPhone app development is a huge pile of poo. (Medium)
Given what a mess web app development is these days, the fact that developers are fleeing towards it tells you everything you need to know.
- An eight-core Tiger Lake processor has been striped. (WCCFTech)
Well, the article says it was spotted but that would make it a leopard, and leopards never prosper.
It's An Idol Group Like AKB48 Video of the Day
Hololive in two minutes and twelve seconds.
Hololive En's Sixth Ranger Video of the Day
Right down to the technical problems.

Do you have a facility for Migrating Wordpress blogs to Minx, or whatever you are using now? Would that even help?
It does seem like , moving forward, Free Speech really is going to be the "killer app"for social media services.
I further suspect that anyone who offers such an outre' commodity is going to get dogpiled by hackers, spammers and DDOS attacks from those who do not want unchaperoned discussions .

You can export the contents of a Wordpress blog and import them into Minx, but it's not seamless; that process was designed mostly to work with Blogspot.
And you're right; once the new site draws attention to itself, I expect it to come under attack. That's happened to us before, but I'd like something that is resilient without me having to be awake at 2 AM.
