  1. Lots of sideways in the entire league. No one is going anywhere......
  2. Like gum on the bottom of your shoe, this guy just keeps sticking around. Kudos to him.
  3. Twitter users run into service issues after Elon Musk imposes daily limits on reading tweets SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Thousands of people logged complaints about problems accessing Twitter on Saturday after owner Elon Musk limited most users to viewing 600 tweets a day — restrictions he described as an attempt to prevent unauthorized scraping of potentially valuable data from the site. The crackdown began to have ripple effects early Saturday, causing more than 7,500 people at one point to report problems using the social media service, based on complaints registered on Downdetector, a website that tracks online outages. Although that's a relatively small number of Twitter's more than 200 million worldwide users, the trouble was widespread enough to cause the #TwitterDown hashtag to trend in some parts of the world. The service disruptions cropped up a day after Twitter began requiring people to log on to the service in order to view tweets and profiles — a change in its longtime practice to allow all comers to peruse the chatter on what Musk has frequently touted as the world's digital town square since buying it for $44 billion last year. In a Friday tweet, Musk described the new restrictions as a temporary measure that was taken because “we were getting data pillaged so much that it was degrading service for normal users!" Musk elaborated on the measures in a Saturday tweet that announced unverified accounts will temporarily be limited to reading 600 posts per day while verified accounts will be able to scroll through up to 6,000 posts per day. The restrictions could result in users being locked out of Twitter for the day after scrolling through several hundred tweets. The higher threshold allowed on verified accounts is part of an $8 per month subscription service that Musk rolled out earlier this year in an effort to boost Twitter revenue that has fallen sharply since he took over the company and laid off roughly three-fourths of the workforce to cuts costs and stave off bankruptcy. Advertisers have since curbed their spending on Twitter, partly because of changes that have allowed more sometimes hateful and prickly content that offends a wider part of the service's audience. Musk recently hired longtime NBC Universal executive Linda Yaccarino to become Twitter's CEO in an effort to win back advertisers. An Associated Press inquiry about Saturday's access problems triggered a crude automated reply that Twitter sends to most press inquiries without addressing the question. *********************** LL Limit how much people can use your product. This guy is such an idiot. Advertisers must love this.
  4. That's a good signing for that number. Only knock on him is next to no playoff experience.
  5. In 2011 our 3rd line was Hansen - Malhotra - Torres. That's the type of third line that's makes you a contender. Our third line last year was a shadow of the 2011 3rd line.
  6. I like what they did today. Rifling through the bargain bin on July 1. What we should have been doing for years instead of overpriced big ticket items.
  7. At only 31 years old he can only get a 1 year deal? Reaves just got 3 years at 36 years old. Maybe he just wants to show he's not the donkey he was in Vancouver and cash in next year?
  8. Is this official? Dhaliwal has amended his tweet to this ...........
  9. Red Sox Brian Bello no hitter end of 7. Aaaand I jinxed him. Good I hate Boston.
  10. Yankees Pitcher Domingo German perfect through 8. Edit: Perfect through 9.
  11. Is anyone else sick to death of these Uber Eats commercials?
  12. Did they just say all the London Knights do is churn out NHL players and defencemen. Except for the video game playing idiot we drafted.
  13. Congrats kid, you got drafted to Hell.
  14. They lead the league in runners left on base. You'd think Mattingly could fix that. Wasted a real good outing from Gausman.
  15. For those unfamiliar with betting odds. If you wager $100 on Musk you'll will $300 (profit). If you bet on Zuck you'll need to wager $500 to win $100.
  16. Roseanne Barr Re-Cancels Herself: ‘Nobody Died in the Holocaust’ 754 On a recent episode of This Past Weekend with Theo Von, the popular comedian sat down with fellow comic Roseanne Barr, whose comeback show was cancelled in 2018 in the wake of her sending racist tweets. Now, Barr has made another alarming comment, telling him that “nobody died in the Holocaust,” before adding, “It should happen. Six million Jews should die right now ‘cause they cause all the problems in the world.” More in the link if you have some brain cells you don't mind killing........ https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/roseanne-barr-cancels-herself-nobody-175232785.html
