Conversations 2.15 reorganizes the settings into different categories. This gets rid of the old 'Expert Settings' which hid a lot of useful settings.
One nice setting that was previously hidden away in the expert settings is 'Direct Search'. This gives you direct access to the search field in the 'New Chat' screen. If you want to start a new chat with someone you only have to type enough characters to make the search result unique and then press enter.

Oh the idiocy!
Excerpt from a #Mashable article linked below:
Let's say someone owns the domain name "NetfliTwitter.com." Why would they own that domain name? Because if X is automatically changing anything that includes "Twitter.com" to "X.com," then that means posting "NetfliTwitter.com" on X would make it appear in posts as "Netflix.com," the popular movie streaming service. And if a user clicked the linked "Netflix.com" text that appears in that post, it would really take them to "NetfliTwitter.com." Because while X is changing the text that the user wrote, the URL it links and directs to remains the same as the user posted.

Big update there on the lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions of solar PV. It was just 5 tons before 👀
Most numbers got updated, but solar is a big shift. No apparent explaination given, but I assume the feed data got updated.

X rolled out a change that automatically converts all links that have the string “twitter” *anywhere* in them to “X.”
For example, if someone tweets the link `setwitter.com`, the X client application will change that link to `sex.com`.
This is not a joke.
