TechrightsBot@schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: #obama said he would enhance process of selection for kill (as in kill list), but that was PR. They just rebrand a cruel policy. [1/2]Jun 20 12:53
schestowitzAmerican Presidents are no different than Roman Emperors, members of Congress like Roman Senators - but that is what they always wanted to be and idealised.Jun 20 12:53
schestowitzWhen will the President be offically called Emperor? Queen Victoria was (though "only" of India). Empires have Emperors and EmpressesJun 20 12:53

schestowitzHi,Jun 20 17:47
schestowitzI am familiar with this problem. It is affecting many Web sites right now (maybe a million or more). Twitter changed its APIs very recently, essentially 'breaking' a lot of software that connects to Twitter for data updates. Several sites of mine are affected by this and desktop applications too, so rest assured it's a problem shared by many.Jun 20 17:47
schestowitzI will look into software updates that may work around the changes or use the new API. If no software updates are available yet, we may have to consider other software which syndicates from Twitter (if any exists). This is in essence a third-party issue, caused due to Twitter's decision to cut off access to many developers and their applications, eliminating RSS in the process, too.Jun 20 17:47
schestowitzI will investigate this further and let you know my suggestions.Jun 20 17:47

schestowitzHi,Jun 20 21:58
schestowitzI have done some further research on this. I can confirm that Twitter is blocking many third-party tools which extract data from one's Twitter account and display it in one's site. Tools which are included or added to Joomla, Drupal, Wordpress etc. are rendered broken until or unless an update is issued. In the mean time, Twitter is trying to promote its own widget. You can see if and configure it atJun 20 21:58
