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.

I hope the Trump campaign spends a lot of time and money chasing those 4 votes just to prove him wrong.

If Al Gore had won New Hampshire he would have won even without Florida. It could be important.

That said, it's polling more Democratic than Texas is Republican. By the time you're likely to win New Hampshire you would have already won Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, and thus the election. Not worth putting resources into.

So teal deer are obviously just turquoise colored elk. Is a pew deer like a red tail with a little laser gun? Or a deer calling people for random survey samples?

Why not both? The lazers would make an excellent persuader

No, there's an X in the corner.

There's no x in the corner, but if you hit back and open it again you have access.

Huh, weird. I'm on mull, which is a fork of Firefox moblie. It's weird that it's different for various people

Yeah I suspect some dark patterns are at play here

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Disabling javascript via ublock origin did the trick for me.
