To be fair, Twitter needs very good infrastructure to be usable (e.g. caching) and obviously content moderation is as robust as their investment in it (those could be contract workers though)

If Goldman Sachs said that, than most likely the opposite is true.

What makes you say that?

A spokesperson for TikTok told the BBC that it had increased its investment “in efforts to ensure reliable information can be found on TikTok”, launching a “UK Election Centre with a fact-checking expert” and adopting an “industry-leading AI labelling technology”.

I doubt this will move the needle. Ultimately TikTok was not built for news & politics specifically, and it seems like a robust fact-checking system would lead to less engagement overall. So it's at odds with their primary objective

Alternatively, it could be very frustrating for people who need it. Computer-generated translations are often very bad compared to human ones, and image recognition adds another layer of complexity that will very likely lack nuance. It could create a false sense of accessibility with bad alt-text, and could make it more difficult to spot real alt-text if it isn't being tagged or labeled as AI generated

Not at all: any company that wants to operate in a given country, has to follow that country’s laws, whether they like them or not.

Maybe in theory but not in practice. See: illegal dumping, tax evasion, labor violations, and many other things

The idea of breaking up a company is to make the space more competitive. Theoretically if YouTube had a proper competitor, then the decision to honor Kremlin requests would be more complicated, since it could lead to a loss of market share

When I tried that the button takes a photo and asks me where to save the JPG. But then when I select a folder it errs saying the image doesn't exist.

I guess I'll stick with the stock camera app

To be clear, here's a screenshot. I'm on a Pixel 5 running Android 11. I checked the default apps page in settings but there's not an option for photos unfortunately.

RE: Open Camera

Not seeing an option to remap the photos button (bottom right) from opening Google Photos

As far as the survival aspects go I prefer Frostpunk. Though that's not as replayable. Both are quite solid and come highly recommended
