Checkmate, Zuckerberg: Twitter begins to pay authors of microblogs – up to 40 thousand dollars for 3 months
The Twitter team has notified popular microbloggers that they will start receiving payments in the very near future. It comes just months after Elon Musk announced that some Twitter users would be able to earn money through ads on the platform.
According to the alert, the money will arrive “within the next 72 hours.” However, there is a catch. The Revenue Sharing Program is only available to users who pay for a Twitter Blue subscription. Payments are made from ads posted in response to tweets.
At the moment, payout amounts range from a few thousand dollars to nearly $40,000 for accounts with several million followers. Twitter also promised that later this month the program will be available to more authors.
It’s not yet clear how payouts are determined or what share of revenue Twitter receives, but accounts must have at least 5 million tweet views in the past three months. Payouts have been cumulative since February, when the program was first announced.
Note that the other day, Elon Musk, who now owns Twitter, got a serious competitor in the person of Mark Zuckerberg, who launched a very similar Threads service amid a scandal with new restrictions on Twitter. The rise of Threads was very rapid – in a few days the service gained 100 million users.
Microsoft is indeed working on a “web-centric” version of the next generation of the Windows operating system, commonly known as Windows 12. This was reported by the thematic resource WindowsLatest, citing several sources close to Microsoft and its industry partners.
The cloud or web-based version of Windows 12 is similar in operating principles to the already well-known ChromeOS operating system from Google, which is used mainly on school and student PCs and laptops that are characterized by accessibility.
As WindowsLatest notes, the cloud version of Windows 12 is not intended to replace the traditional proprietary OS on desktop computers and could be the “true” answer to Chrome OS. This is Microsoft’s attempt to create a more modern, modular and lightweight version of Windows for low-cost educational devices.
Microsoft is already building a development team for the next generation of Windows. This is confirmed by job listings appearing online. It also notes that the “next generation of Windows” will appear in 2024.
As WindowsLatest learned, the Microsoft Edge browser and a new artificial intelligence system will be the center of the first web version of Windows 12.
Users of Google’s car platform began to complain about problems with the GPS signal after the release of the stable Android Auto 10.5 update.
According to some users, they have encountered problems with GPS while driving. Several users reported that the GPS signal suddenly disappeared for a few seconds and the navigator froze, but after a few moments it came to life and continued to work normally. This problem affects not only Google Maps, but also the Waze app.
Unfortunately, Google developers have not yet acknowledged the problems with GPS. However, you shouldn’t get too upset because new Android Auto updates come out every few weeks. If you have problems with GPS when using Android Auto, you can downgrade to an older version.
Google has released a small update to its Chrome browser, which may please many users.
The fact is that some time ago the developers added the “All Bookmarks” checkbox to the end of the bookmarks bar, and the new element is firmly attached to the panel. Clicking “All Bookmarks” will simply prompt you to “Open sidebar to see all bookmarks.” This innovation annoyed many users and has now been removed.
The panel was freed from the plate with the update to Chrome 117.0.5938.132. In addition, the update contains 10 security fixes, including the exploit that was used in the attacks.
