Tech News

Quick one again because reasons.
Web3 is going great. (Web3IsGoingGreat)

A daily update of digital disasters, including the note that Terraform Labs' (the company behind the late Terra and Luna cryptocurrencies) entire legal team resigned this week.

From comments on Reddit:

Web3 is a whole lot of ponzi scheme.

Come on, that's not fair.

There's also pump and dump schemes, market manipulation, rug pulls, blatant money laundering, and half a dozen other things I can't remember right now. They've been quite imaginative in their breadth of scams and calling the whole thing a bunch of ponzis really sells it short.
Twitter will hide tweets it deems to be sharing false information during events it deems to be a crisis. (The Verge)

Similar to the way they currently hide "sensitive" images, which is to say they will mostly get it wrong even if you buy into the assumption that it should happen at all.
Netflix has made it's broken user interface into a feature. (9to5Mac)

I cancelled my subscription because it took longer to find something to watch than it did to watch it.

"Mystery Box" solves this by just shoveling random crap at you.
~~China~~ Canada is set to ban Chinese spy agency Huawei from building the country's mobile networks. (CBC)

Really keeping on top of things, eh?
Framework now offers 12th generation CPUs in its repairable laptops. (Tom's Hardware)

And a replacement motherboard if you want to upgrade from an 11th generation model.

Also coming is a 2.5Gb Ethernet module - the system has four swappable I/O modules, with a choice for each of USB-C, USB-A, HDMI, DisplayPort, microSD, and now wired Ethernet.
QNAP. (Bleeping Computer)

Again.
