What could go wrong ™

AJ won’t give up. Ever. This - not just the site but the narrative he developed around the trial and the attention he gets for it - is his livelihood, he needs to keep it up no matter how ridiculous, petty and pointless.

I hear it’s only a small, partial win anyhow.

No matter for AJ: one more time he’s getting media attention.

He cannot retain information for longer so whatever the last person he talked with said that’s what he’ll repeat.

What is the diplomatic fix?

And how did they change his name?

Iain M Banks’ GSVs are missing. Pretty sure they’d outsize most of what we’re seeing here. Not that that is what makes him a great scifi author.

As soon as you leave English language wikipedia this happens fairly often. Not necessarily Russian, maybe adjacent. And not since yesterday! I noticed around Corona, and it’s been a problem for way longer. It’s relatively easy for 1 editor to slip through unnoticed if there isn’t enough eyeballs on the article, and hey they can write what their overlords tell them unchallenged.

Bobiverse?

Futurama is chock full of big and little jokes, many not spoken, and I often have to pause to read them.

Nixon’s head refering to his people as “fellow Earthicans” is always on point somehow. Also endorsing products during his speeches. And calling the flag “ol’ Freebie”.

Also, considering Futurama was most active in the 20-oughts, it’s often interesting to see how they satirize the very same issues the US are dealing with today.

I’m currently re-watching the whole shebang and sometimes I just have to take a screenshot. Unpolitical, therefore somewhat OT:

It still creeps me out that people use LLMs as search engines nowadays.

I hope they learn their lesson from their own poll.

…and obviously I can’t see any of it because their posts are gone, too?
Can you put some numbers on this?
Can anybody confirm?

It could be some sort of Streisand effect brought on by people complaining about “bot accounts” for days/weeks now.
People thinking something like “You scared of trolls? Lol, let’s troll you some more!”

Also, some of those accused seem like very normal people to me who also comment in other communities and do not, in fact, delete their account.

edit: somebody created an account 1h ago, only to downvote every single comment in this thread. No content.

I never understood why people would say JSON is superior, and why XML seemed to be getting rarer, but the author explains it:

XML was not abandoned because it was inadequate; it was abandoned because JavaScript won.

I’ve been using it ever since I started using Linux because my favorite window manager uses it, and because of a long-running pet project that is almost just as old: first I used XML tools to parse web pages, later I switched to dedicated data providers that offered both XML and JSON formats, and stuck to what I knew.

I’m guessing that another reason devs - especially web devs - prefer JSON over XML is that the latter uses more bytes to transport the same amount of raw data. One XML file will be somewhat larger than one JSON file with the same content. That advantage is of course dwarved by all the other media and helper scripts - nay, frameworks, devs use to develop websites.

BTW, XML is very readable with syntax highlighting and easily editable if your code editor has some very basic completion for it. And it has comments!

TikTok outrages should never become news headlines.

But it’s the Daily Fail, so 🤷

That said - as if he could tell what each one would taste like.

I have noticed people complaining about this. Looks like a normal newbie who, after a few days of browsing, decided to post several comics in quick succession, then nothing again. Not necessarily bot behavior, since they post in the correct community and the comics are relatively funny and do not ptomote anything.

But then I noticd that there’s several such accounts.

It’s a mystery. One that might be solved by looking at the users’ IP addresses. I can’t, but mods or admins can. So I’m going to trust their judgement.

Some transparency would be appreciated though.

Edit: this community has only one mod. I looked at their posting history; they apparently made a web app to make the lives of mods easier. I also read them mention somewhere that they’d have preferred to just remove an offending comment, but the admins decided to ban that person completely. Maybe these are partial answers to the question OP asked.

Her wikipedia page - she’s been a hardcore antifeminist, anti-vax, anti-woke-everything right from the start. Even her boyfriends have been alt-righters. Pure-bred fascist, sorry for the pun.

I bet the leaders of whatever respective party in NL were only too happy to get such a price: conventionally pretty, young, saying all the “right” things.

🤷

I’ve seen about a dozen articles about this on Lemmy and they all put “captured” in quotes or otherwise make it clear that there is no corroboration, it’s just Trump’s regime saying things? In other words, nobody has seen Maduro in the States yet, let alone taken pics/vids of him?

Yeah I heard that MAGA-adjacent shit is happening in Canada too, I guess most of it in Alberta? Is it the Texas of Canada? Does it have oil?

Had to check that out on a map:

What’s the point?

Some states further South should be considering this.
