Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

came to say this. whats the point of an approval rating. feels like calvin and hobbes with the dads approval rating.
WHY DOES ELON MUSK HAVE A MOTHERFUCKING APPROVAL RATING. MOTHERFUCKER IS NOT ELECTED. FUCK.
I was gonna say: we didn't vote for him! Approval rating should be at 0% on that point alone as zero voters approved of this.
I usually dont like all caps but you captured my feelings perfectly.
Came here to point this out, but could not have put it as eloquently as you.
It's cool a non elected, private citizen has an approval rating and a job in our government.
Now if only he could "Fall out a window" and stop actively destroying the country, that'd be great.
Now let Tesla stock price follow his approval rating!
I seriously doubt it will. It might have dropped almost 30% on the last month, but it's back up 17% in the last 5 days.
Back down 5% today at the moment.
But it's insane that it's still so high.
It was always propped up by empty promises of self driving and other imaginary tech that never got delivered.
Elmo Muskrat was told by his engineers to use a combination of machine vision and lidar/radar and other sensors to achieve full self driving. I suppose Ketamine elves told Ketamine addicted Elmo that machine vision should be sufficient. SO Elmo told the engineers that they were wrong and it will just be machine vision. Thus Tesla will NEVER succeed at full self driving.
The other issue is that object recognition from a camera can never be 100% accurate, therefore any decision on which object to avoid and where to turn in an emergency situation will have a good chance of being wrong, based on weather and visibility.
It is not nice to wish ill on someone, but with Muskolini, I cannot help but desire it.
Is it really "not nice" when something bad happening to a person, removing them from public policy, would be an objective improvement?
It's not nice having to wish for anyone's death. Goes against the human nature.
But something not feeling nice tells nothing about whether something is okay or not. Sometimes you need to do things that are not nice.
Who said anything about death?
Not me. Probably nobody? 🤷
