This week, TON Foundation announced that it’s forged a partnership with Tencent Cloud, which has “already successfully supported TON validators and plans to expand its services further to help meet TON’s high compute intensity and network bandwidth needs.” Validators, in web3 lingo, are participants that help authenticate transactions in a blockchain network.

It looks like the partnership with Tencent only extends to their Web3 blockchain thing, and there doesn't seem to be any partnership in the main app so it's not the end of the world - at least, for now.

Also, what even is this TON blockchain? I never knew Telegram had anything to do with crypto :/

Hasn't the founder been a vocal critic of Russia for years, including the Ukraine war? I don't really see why that would be a concern, especially since Telegram is supposedly owned by a US LLC

yt-dlp does support fetching comments and description text - if you use the --write-info-json and --write-comments options, it will save them as a JSON file alongside other video metadata.

Yeah, except EMPRESS was just complaining that her own torrents got deleted, not that others were unsafe

Ignoring that totally legit car, this just looks like someone cranked up the saturation and contrast in Photoshop a bit too much. I don't know, maybe it's the low-res JPEG though
