People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

I’m just kind of stunned by the “summarize this email” button. It’s 3 sentences!
Yeah.. I saw this on a technical blog post for developers the other day and almost bust a blood vessel
"Read with my fucking eyes"
Can they add a button "understand this for me"? I don't feel like a summary is reducing my effort enough. /s
"get fucked"
Do people regularly get emails long enough to justify a summary button? I think I've seen those maybe once out every thousand emails I get.
Or is it summarizing the whole thread?
I do, but that's because I subscribe to hobby newsletters that tend to run long. I wouldn't use a summary button because I want every bit of that content.
Not regularly, but sometimes I'll come back to work after a few days off, and find one of those threads of 200 emails pinging around chaotically.
In those cases, I'm happy to let Copilot try and figure out what the hell was going on. Worst case it gives me a dogshit summary and I'm no worse off.
Some people do feel the need to write essays for emails.
