PANIC AVERTED: Twitter Service Resumes After Brief Outage

Annnnnnnd it's back. Whew! After only about ten minutes Tweets can resume.

Social media giant Twitter is experiencing a major outage leaving Tweeters with idle thumbs. The Verge is reporting that at around 7:05 CT, many users reported “over capacity” error messages, and even errors saying “this page is down.”

The issues are affecting Twitter web, mobile, and even the company’s TweetDeck app.

Is it a coincidence that this comes just days after the social network filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk, the world’s richest man?

Musk is trying to exit a $44 billion acquisition deal based on claims Twitter has failed to satisfy requests for information on bot and spam activity on the platform.

Five months ago Twitter left its subscribers in the dark twice due to a “technical bug that was preventing timelines from loading and Tweets from posting.”

Fear-not Tweets, this too shall pass.

8 Things You Should Never Buy At A South Dakota Garage Sale

South Dakotans love garage sales. I like saving money as much as the next guy. But there are just some things you should buy new and never purchase at a garage sale.

Here Are The 7 Remaining Drive-In Theaters In South Dakota

If you were born last century...you know, in the nineteen hundreds (ugh)...you may have spent a summer evening in the car watching movies. I don't mean on your phone, I mean at the drive-in movie theater!

If you were in Sioux Falls in the 1970s and '80's you may remember seeing Jaws and Indiana Jones at The East Park or the Starlite Drive-In. Both drive-ins opened just after World War 2. The East Park didn't make it out of the '70s, closing in 1978. The Starlite survived long enough to see the birth of home video, closing in 1985.

FLASHBACK: Remember the East Park and Starlite Drive-in Theaters in Sioux Falls?

Drive-in movies had a bit of a resurgence during the pandemic. They were a way to go out and do something social without getting out of your car.

If you tried one during that time, or you remember the fun of a warm summer evening watching movies on that giant screen there are still places in South Dakota and around Sioux Falls you can do it.
