News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
every fucking post on this website is about this guy I don't give a shit holy fuck stop posting him
I have a filter against his name on mobile, really wished I could do the same on desktop
why did it take IBM and Apple so long to figure out which song was playing on the juke box here
Apple still has no problem pumping this to hundreds of millions of people through their app store for a 30% cut.
Do they really care?
Pull the app.
Again? Is it gonna stick this time? You promise?
What, did he buy it again?

So they always say... and then keep reading and posting tweets all day every day.
On Wednesday, Musk appeared to endorse an antisemitic post by user @breakingbaht alleging that “Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.” In response, Musk posted, “You have spoken the actual truth.”
The original post seemed to echo the beliefs of the “great replacement” conspiracy theory, which is popular among white supremacists and right-wing extremists.
And yet, all my Jewish friends are white.
Schrodinger’s whiteness…
Jewish people tend to not be considered white even though they are oftentimes fair skinned, blue eyes, etc.
In the US, Italian and Irish immigrants also used to not be considered white either. It’s a label applied to groups when it’s most convenient. Doesn’t necessarily have a lot of logic behind it beyond racism.
Schrodinger’s whiteness…
It always is.
X I don't care about.
Not seeing this shit in my feed constantly, now that would be nice.
You can always just add his name as a filtering keyword. Tools are available to help you.
Imagine filtering "musk", "Biden", "trump", and "communism and socialism are good and moral and it has always worked every time we tried it" from Lemmy.
"There's nothing here. Please refresh."
Not quite.
“I use Arch BTW”
Starship launch tomorrow though, wouldn't want to miss out on hype because of something titled "Elon Musk's Starship Rocket" etc... I'm a big space nerd and while Elon is a dork this rocket will be a massive leap for everything space related if it works out.
Fuck X/Twitter though, sick of hearing about it for sure. I've heard rumours that SpaceX only does as well as they do because they have Shotwell running the show and they have Elon wranglers to keep him away from anything important...
I recently blocked /c/enoughmuskspam, which, ironically, was only musk spam
Is that beard to make him look younger? Because it looks like that beard you sometimes see on young guys figuring out that they can't really grow a decent beard...
Again?
What is IBM advertising there?
Any one of the large brands they own, I assume: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_IBM
Very Stable Genius v. 2.0
are the last horses just finishing the realization race? this was always his endgame
Oops I destroyed the nerve center of American journalism, totally just an accident I swear bro.
Hasn't he blurted out stupid stuff his whole career without it causing any negative effects? Seems like that's his thing and it seems like it's been working for him pretty well. At least until now.
He’s never depended on advertisers to pay the bills before.
Yeah yeah, promises, promises.
We can only hope. 👍
