X Money apparently is rolling out. Taking a page out of PayPal's playbook. This is telling: campaignId=xmoney-early-access-07-24-2026-wave-4 […] [Original post on threads.com]

The image displays a promotional pop-up for a financial service called "X Money." The message emphasizes the urgency of not missing out on exclusive access, highlighting benefits such as a 6% annual percentage yield (APY) on account balances and a 3% cashback offer with an associated metal card. There are two buttons at the bottom: one to claim a $25 incentive and another to decline the offer. The background is dark with a subtle design, creating a contrast that makes the text and buttons stand out.

Look what I found in trumpaccount.com/robots.txt For some reason I think @crumbler will appreciate this. trumpaccount.com/robots #Trump Account

The image displays a playful ASCII art representation of a robot with large eyes and a speech bubble containing the phrase "Exterminate all humans.txt." Below the robot, there are additional ASCII characters forming its body and arms. Additionally, the image includes a section labeled "User-agent: *" which outlines directives for web crawlers. The directives specify paths that are allowed and disallowed for crawling, such as allowing access to "/applinks.well-known/" while disallowing access to various paths like "/home/", "/account/", and others. A link to the sitemap is also provided at the end.

Can hardly believe OpenAI just up and replaced the ChatGPT app with Codex. That's a lot of people's cheese to move at once! 🧀

The image shows a close-up of a smartphone screen featuring three application icons in a dock. The first icon on the left appears to represent a spark or burst symbol, possibly indicating a creative or productivity app. The second icon is a blue cloud with a terminal or command line symbol, likely representing a coding or development tool. The third icon is also a blue cloud but includes a question mark, suggesting it may be an app related to assistance or inquiry, such as a chatbot or help tool. Above the icons, there is a label that reads "ChatGPT."

Zoom is raising their prices again — by $10. Maybe no biggie, but they justify it by saying, "look at all this STUFF you get!" And I use none of it. I just want reliable video calls. I really don't want switch to but Google Meet is free. Enbloatification.

The image depicts a protest scene outside a building. A man stands in the foreground, holding a cardboard sign that reads, "MY AI PSYCHOSIS RECOGNIZES THE AI PSYCHO IN YOU." He has short, styled hair, glasses, and is wearing a black t-shirt with the same phrase prominently displayed. He has a cigarette in his mouth and appears to be addressing a crowd. In the background, two men in suits are visible, one of whom has a serious expression. Several photographers are capturing the moment, and there are police officers visible in the background. The setting suggests a significant event related to artificial intelligence, likely drawing attention from both the media and the public.
