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.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


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.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.


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 or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.


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.

This shareholder says "Bye!" and I'll buy more when the market is done panicking over his departure.

While .. not after.

I'll give Tesla a bargain basement deal and take the job for 1% of that, and can guarantee I will be less of an obstacle to improvement.

Shit, I'd do that job for minimum wage, if only to see Musk fired.

Win win. Don't waste money and get rid of an egotistical loser at the same time.

Please don't throw me in the briar patch!

If all he does is leave, that will be fantastic. More likely he'll just cripple the company in his rage. That's the real reason a lot will vote to pay him.

Were you just made a moderator of c/news, @jeffw? If so, congratulations!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Moderating a forum isn't really a thing to be proud of or congratulate someone for squid.

"Oh you were just made a moderator? I'm sorry." is more appropriate.

It's true, we do have a lot of thankless work to do (I moderate a bunch of communities), but we also, or at least I do, try to promote community growth and discussion. I sort of view my jobs as much as an ambassador for the community as I am someone who enforces rules.

Didn't he just steal a bunch of GPUs from Tesla for use at Twiter?

I'm sure that another SEC investigation will be done for this and Elon will drag it out for years.

Don't threaten me with a good time!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

Shareholders: Please don't threaten me with a good time!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

No balls, you won't do it!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I might buy some stock so I can vote no.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

Exploitative schizoid druggo leaving promising company? That sounds like a win for Tesla.
