I always heard this joke as "If you hold a stoat up to your ear, you can hear the sound of your own voice, screaming."

Reeks of desperation to bring back the porn after how literally every other mainstream platform has walked away from it.

As a little more background, the letter 'X' can be pronounced as "sh" in a lot of languages, turning tweets into 'zits' or 'shits'. I like 'Xitter' as a pejorative, pronounced 'Shitter'.

The problem is the CPU effort it takes to produce 100 Xits for your timeline, then search that list for everyone on your blocklist, remove those Xits, then possibly go back to the suggestion API to get more since there are only 40 Xits left, etc. etc. is cost prohibitive... Especially when you have millions of users with thousands of accounts on their blocklists.

Total newb question -- don't these CPUs support multiple clock speeds? You could set it high on install in preparation for compiling a bunch of software, then once you're done, knock it down to 50% or less of the maximum to add longevity?

Maybe... Hearty Re-Starty?

Ticker Re-jigger?

Pumper Bumper?

I get that the cars are heavy, but the tires should wear evenly - 80,000lb tractor trailers don't burn through the inside edge of tires at 25% of their usable life... As far as suspension is concerned, they did replace parts in the rear to allow them to better adjust the alignment, and I've put fewer miles on the vehicle this year, plus had a warranty repair that required re-aligning all tires again... But I'm going to be super pissed if it happens a second time.
