P.S.

...there is a light at the end of the ~~tunnel~~gangplank.

Fixed that for you.

(As a joke, not seriously.)

Albeit in many countries, Twitter never really had the same impact as in the US. Where I live, Telegram is the source for notifications, updates and news.

Twitter has always been an also-ran in social media circles.

Twitter purports to be a world-scope social media site. These are the numbers for October of 2023 (the most recent I have info for):

Twitter is behind three local-scope social media sites (WeChat, Douyin, and Kuaishou) and running neck-in-neck with a fourth (that is locally largely considered a failure).

Note that: a "global" site is not just behind, but FAR behind in one case, several locally-scoped sites. And it barely registers against other world-scoped sites.

And this is in late 2023 before Apartheid Manchild opened the doors to reveal his batshit insanity and stupidity even more.

I'm assessing whether your "guess" is wild SF-inspired imagination or grounded in anything, you know, actually factual.

You've answered.

Sportsmanlike behaviour in the modern age?

That IS weird! 🤣

This is "Single-Bamboo Drifting" (独竹漂), a traditional sport of the Miao peoples in Guizhou.

You stand on a broad bamboo trunk and steer/propel with a thin bamboo stick. Often combining it with complicated dance. It requires a lot more balance than I could ever have managed at any point in my life.

Judging by later messages, this is a True Believer. Which when translated to English is "idiot".

You seem both nice and very bright.

there are a bunch of orb-like UFOs exploring our sensitive areas

I think you will find that traditionally they do anal probes for this.

Seems like military drone tests in my opinion.

Have any actual expertise to back that opinion up?

(Hint: probably not.)

What was supposed to be a simple task (modifying some code from an MCU to another MCU in the same family) is turning into a nightmare as it turns out that the "same family" can be radically different with this vendor's products.

So ... "fun". In both the ironic and not-ironic sense.

One of my absolute favourites of all time for street food is 肉夹馍. Had it this Tuesday on the way home from work. A very close second is 煎饼. Last time I had that, though, was over a month ago.
