Mark Zuckerberg klarifikasi laporan tentang bunkernya di Hawaii

Jakarta  – CEO Meta Mark Zuckerberg mengklarifikasi laporan dari WIRED tahun lalu yang menyebut dia memiliki bunker seluas 5.000 kaki persegi di bawah propertinya di Pulau Kauai, Hawaii.

“Itu hanya semacam selter kecil,” katanya kepada Emily Chang dari The Circuit.

“Apa pun sebutannya, tempat berlindung dari badai, apapun itu. Saya pikir itu menjadi tidak proporsional seolah-olah seluruh peternakan itu adalah semacam bunker untuk menghadapi kiamat, yang sama sekali tidak benar,” katanya.

Sebagaimana dikutip dalam siaran The Hollywood Reporter pada Sabtu (21/12), Zuckerberg menjelaskan bahwa kompleks peternakannya di Kauai dirancang untuk menghasilkan daging sapi dengan kualitas terbaik di dunia.

“Kami punya rencana integrasi vertikal menyeluruh di mana kami menanam kacang macadamia untuk memenuhi kebutuhan bungkil macadamia, dan kami membuat bir karena itu membantu mereka makan lebih banyak. Itu menyenangkan,” katanya.

Luas kompleks peternakan milik Zuckerberg dan istrinya, Priscilla Chan, di Hawaii diwartakan sekitar 1.400 hektare serta punya pasokan energi dan makanan sendiri.

Kompleks yang disebut Koolau Ranch itu nilainya 100 juta dolar AS. Jika digabungkan dengan pembelian tanah, biaya pembangunannya lebih dari 270 juta dolar AS atau sekitar Rp4,3 triliun.

Pamper Sports Fans, Threads Adds Live Score Feature

Morrissey Technology – Social media platform Threads will reportedly start showing live sports scores, starting with NBA basketball games. This was conveyed directly by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, he said that he would add more scores for other sports matches in the near future. Threads explains how this live score system works, so during the match, just search for the teams and users will see the latest scores. If the game ends, the search will return the final score. Users can also find out when the match will start by searching for it in advance.

The feature is clearly similar to how X works, as the platform started showing live sports scores in 2017, when it was still called Twitter. Each score is accompanied by two team logos. Tapping on these logos will take users to a conversation about that team. A Threads spokesperson told Engadget that basketball has become one of the most popular topics and NBA Threads has become one of the most active sports communities on the app.

This makes sense, as NBA discourse is also huge on X. NBA Twitter, as it is called in sports media, regularly drives coverage and conversation about the professional basketball league. It seems Meta hopes to take some of that influence.

Apple also recently announced its own sports-related initiatives. The first-party Sports iPhone FOR4D app offers real-time statistics for a number of major leagues, including the NBA, and displays live scoring data on the lock screen during games.
