I miss being able to go to the library. My local one isn’t wheelchair accessible anymore though.

You’re treating a million individual deaths as the same as one person in your thinking. This isn’t binary.

In business, just like in war, the few take credit for the work and will of the many.

We remember Eisenhower, not the millions who died and sacrificed their life fighting for him.

There’s been one movie that had part of an anal scene in zero G lol.

I think it was a czech porno or something. Don’t ask me how I know.

You could give the aid to ukraine and benefit the MIC just the same

To be fair one side is a democracy with minimal oppression in times of peace and the other is a full on facist dictatorship.

The WHO said COVID wasn’t airborne and only spread through contact or cough droplets until 2023 when they changed their mind even though research had put significant doubts in this by 2021.

They WHO isn’t usually the most speedy at getting the details right. I’d look for literature reviews.

I think it should be proportion and not net score. Ie. If after atleast 8 votes have been cast >70% are downvotes, comment is collapsed.

I like that idea.

I’d like to note that while to you it may seem there is little interaction on lemmy, ie. votes and comments. I can assure you the median engagement on posts is far higher than reddit. The bottification of reddit has made it so that the few bot/troll posts get lots of engagement, and anything organic gets pretty much none.

Have you interacted with BeeHaw much? Because they do most the things you ask pretty well.

Hi. I have a suggestion:

Try to make it more clear that this is not a flawless rating (as that is impossible).

Ways to implement:

• Make sure the bot says something along the lines of “MBFC rates X news as Y” and not “X news is Y”.
• Make a caveat (collapsable) at the bottom, that says something along the lines of “MBFC is not flawless. It has an american-centric bias, is not particularly clear on methodology, to the point where wikipedia deems it unreliable; however, we think it is better to have this bot in place as a rough estimate, to discourage posting from bad sources”
• If possible, add other sources, Like: “MBFC rates the Daily Beast as mostly reliable, Ad Fontes Media rates it as unreliable, and Wikipedia says it is of mixed reliability”
• Remove the left right ratings. We already have a reliability and quality rating, which is much more useful. The left-right rating is frankly poorly done and all over the place, and honestly doesn’t serve much purpose.

tudu tudutudutudu

Ad fontes is a little more reasonable but still closed door not very trustworthy

the us is the only one of two countries out of 200 that makes citizens abroad have to pay taxes

I hope ukraine continues liberating Russia

the US requires you to pay 3’000 USD to renounce citizenship

family

Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan followed a similar pattern

MBFC is a joke honestly. How can the internet archive be left center.

They’ve set left center as the default.
