You obviously are so well versed on /c/Politics that you don't even know what Cambridge Analytica did to the population? Steve Bannon?

When presented with a citations, mocking is a typical symptom of the problem. Low-effort one-line junk responses to a total article.

It's odd how many people think Fox News language behavior isn't a concern.

People so strung out on memes they chase any free sample feed, inclusive of Lemmy.

We are in an Information War and I don't see enough peer to peer friendships being made between The People of China and everyday people in USA, South America, Africa, North America, Europe, Australia, etc.

I don't see China people on GitHub and YouTube like I did 5 years ago. Maybe the real war is power over technology and all of humanity isn't winning. Isn't that another way to interpret Climate Change, an education mistake on a global scale? Advertising and marketing defeating science teachers? The love for the singe-passenger automobile 9 to 5 commute job - exceeding the reality of global climate physics?

Like they say in The Orville - Dolly Parton was a hero! she basically turned out to be a great teacher, like Mr. Rogers on the true problems of childhood. 9 to 5 was kind of like showing children what your divorced single mother was having to go through. Not to say that fit the relationships in the film itself, but the office environment of white collar world. The technology of the Office Workplace and the era of typewriters as business machines. EDIT: It's a real War: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6Do6VWUxyg

I don't agree, other than the dogwhstle use of the phrase problem that is ongoing. But back to my point: there are reasons Cambridge Analytica and Surkov style meme warfare from the IRA go for this topic, because there WAS a transcendence in The Bible, there factually was The Enlightenment

People think we are living in Holocaust Denial... no, what Fox News, Alex Jones, and Trump present is described by Neil Postman... Enlightenment Denial is what killed good in the USA. www.Romans1132.com -James Joyce unraveled all these media mind games back when Edward Bernays was doing his thing!

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Like my fathers come to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends

Latest information is often of the highest quality on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qaraqosh_wedding_fire

Rudy Giuliani 'may have been compromised' by the Kremlin, and FBI leaders didn't care

"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us." - Carl Sagan, 1995

we aren't far away from easily-made interactive images / video where people will be able to create realistic selfies / video clips of their own self - in famous situations. Like Forest Gump being inserted into meeting historic President. The appeal is too strong and it will likely create tons of highly upvoted/shared social media images distorting the original.

People tend to treat detecting photoshop images as a game of one-upmanship, not as an importance of preserving a documented concept or situation for others to learn and understand.

I couldn’t get an unbiased all feed.

Lemmy would crash if you fed it everything, that's why Lemmy.ml and lemmy.world were crashing so often since May, the SQL did not scale. Some of those problems have been fixed, but it was performing really badly at the time of the Reddit API cutoff.

The admin headaches of a full feed from over a thousand unknown sources means you are opening yourself up to a lot of legal, copyright, porn, vote manipulation, unpredictable load surges, etc. I think it would have to be something people fund a lemmy site that promises to carry everything.

Admins can choose what they want on their sites. We should be able to easily curate what we have on our feeds.

I think smart-clients are doing this where one feed on a client can even come from multiple accounts on different servers. Isn't that kind of how RSS readers did their browsing, blending multiple sources?

There's been so many tools to move profiles around between servers, is is basically multi-reddit by server-login

What will fall apart? Federation or Beehaw?

The people hosting the instance are still responsible for the content being on their server, hiding it doesn't make that go away.

 

Returning "operation timed out" right away. Thought you would want to know. Take care.
