Because people keep buying Xiaomi and Samsung shit that’s loaded with crap (at least over here, I understand this varies massively by region).

If an article hasn’t cited any sources, then, imo, it isn’t news

News are those sources for a lot of situations. Someone has to create the primary source at the point of something happening or existing. That’s a news article. This can later be cited by somebody else “As reported by Reuters at xyz…”. There exist other sources of course, which are, kinda, The News™️ in their respective areas of events. Scientific findings usually have published works as their primary source. Computer vulnerabilities use CWEs or something equivalent once made public.

What source could a reporter sitting on a street in a civil unrest cite? Signed, ID-verified, named and double-checked-against-birth-certificate statements from people around him?

Was about to post this list, it’s a very good overall quick reference. It correctly identifies most of the tabloids posing as “real” newspapers, too.

Goodson told police she was actually “scared” of shooting the gun and hoped simply producing it would be enough to deter potential threats.

Going to be honest here, I don’t think the drop bears care much about you drawing your gun.

Best just taze him.

Yeah it’s not a situation I can see an easy solution for, especially because, as you say, people randomly going out and shooting CEOs isn’t going to solve the problem either, but at the same time other attempts have also failed leaving people desperate and willing to do desperate acts.

Yeah that’s why I said I’m not disagreeing with the underlying statement.

No I meant like, public universal healthcare would be a solution for the US. Instead of their private one. 😅

Great, then skip the post instead of littering the comments? 🤷 I mean there’s no funny pictures in this.

Har har har, you’re so much solving issues instead of just complaining about others not doing it for you for free…

Oh yeah that’s kinda my vibe, too. I’d just want to know how it looks inside, anyways.

I will say from experience that if anybody here owns a Melitta Smart TS, as amazing as that machine is for the 620€ I paid for it considering it keeps up with the 2k Siemens machine, you do need to unscrew the metal plate behind the brewing unit and hold your gag reflex if you never did that before, they made a mistake with the large opening above it and ground coffee can fall in and will slowly get moist and rot in there. Luckily nowhere near the brewing actually, but such a weird blunder to do with an otherwise well-designed machine. I was wondering where that smell came from…

Well as for the first part, I suspect the admin(s) had to talk to each other and the mods first? They probably don’t all have bat-signal and instead had to sent emails or messages around and wait for replies, takes a few days? I mean this shooting happened five days ago, not even a week. Would you pay for the 24/7 social media marketing team on call to handle such cases in 1-3 hours like for some larger companies? I doubt it, no?

Sure, you are the new admin of lemmy.world.us that will migrate all the data over on Wednesday, I presume?

“Freedom” is a concept, it’s neither something unique to America nor is it reliant on any document.

Funny how words change when they are put together with other words.

“Freedom” != “Freedom of Speech”

The second is a specific thing, it just happens to have “freedom” in its name. Much like Michael Jackson and Michael Scott are different people, despite both having “Michael” in the name, and the former is not an amalgamation of Michael Scott and Janet Jackson, either! It’s shocking, I know!

Freedom of Speech’s meaning cannot be derived from the individual meanings of the words “freedom”, “of” or “speech”, not without having exterior knowledge as to the process of how it was created. It’s almost as if, and hold on to your hats here this is wild, it’s a name for something, not an inherent concept in itself. You even clearly have used this concept before, as you seem to be indirectly aware that Freedom Of Speech and Freedom Of The Press are different things, and surprisingly the “Freedom” part in both means wildly different things (not actually sure whether you are aware of that second part, but it’s rather crucial to how they work).

Now, could you maybe say that in hindsight it turned out to be a bad name since the concept it signifies neither related to freedom or speech in their bare meanings? Sure. Take that up with the Naming Authority, second floor, right walkway, sixth door on the left.

You really need to read up on some laws in your country.

As I understand it, unless you have lawyers on retainer you can’t really make a good call when the second part is okay and when it isn’t. What is feels-wise a “call to violence” and what is legally a Call To Violence™️does not always match up. Hence most moderation inherently overshoots massively and casts an extremely wide net, for legal protection.

In fact there are plenty children who would specifically mark out one or both of their parents as having been detrimental to their life.

It’s an interesting combination, too. In very devolved industrial countries like the US, people are both more readily violent and the rich have successfully told the poor that the very poor are a big part of their problem.

The one who “misinterpreted” the rules is a mod of pretty much all the main subs on world.

That’s because few want to. I’ve been asked myself whether I want to mod multiple communities because the current mod isn’t active, and some of those aren’t even small.

(edit: Fair enough, did not even know it’s public what somebody mods - in that case however you should be inherently aware of how naturally moderating communities is something extremely few people would want to do, and how this naturally results in very few users moderating vast swathes of communities)
