ZombiFrancis , in Soliciting Feedback for Improvements to the Media Bias Fact Checker Bot

I’m gonna be Left-Center on this with reliable credibility that the bot is useless at best.

It is reporting on the source, not the content, of what is posted which is already going to be a problem for discourse.

If there are media sources that are known or proven to be a problem, I would find it preferable the bot just alert that and ignore anything else.

I appreciate the joke lol. But on a serious note, it sounds like you’re saying it’s not actually 100% useless, just that it’s being deployed too widely. Any specific suggestions on what the bot should say on those questionable sources?

Bumble is stupid. The core design of the app forces you to check it every 24 hours or less or you’ll lost people you matched with.

Kratom is so far from heroin…

I caught one of these in 2020 during the height of the pandemic (in Animal Crossing).

I hope I catch morefish!

oakey66 , in Elon Musk’s rightward turn includes a fringe fascination: Civil war

I was always told that billionaires are so caught up in their work and are constantly making money and hustling. This man has more time on his hands than a homeless dude. And he owns like 4 companies? Just goes to show that this is all part of the mythologizing of wealthy people and in their boredom they develop the most perverse self perspective that idolizes themselves. They also surround themselves with yes men who help perpetuate their ego until it grows out of control and turns them into fascists.

Just a thought.

Maggoty ,

Reminds me of the saying, we do not all have the same 24 hours.

greenshirtdenimjeans , in New lines of attack form against the Affordable Care Act

Grassley is turning 91 in a month. Probably mad he’s gonna die soon so he wants others to join him by not having healthcare.

All thats missing is the flag and a spark

Un-fucking-acceptable you Nazi trash

trevor , in Soliciting Feedback for Improvements to the Media Bias Fact Checker Bot

Remove it please. It’s an obtrusive advertisement for Ground News.

It’s incredibly annoying to see comments: 1, only to click the post to see an ad. It makes me less inclined to interact with Lemmy at all. It’s the same kind of crap that ruined Reddit.

jeffw OP ,
@jeffw@lemmy.world avatar

We want to keep it in some form. Would you prefer not having the Ground News link?

trevor ,

That would certainly be preferable. I don’t think we should be advertising.

Beyond that, it would be much better if there were a way to not have the not be counted as a comment. Comments are what humans do. They’re meant to be interacted with. I can’t interact with a bot, other than rolling my eyes at it.

Yet more fear-mongering. Have we not learned what the red flags are, yet?

systemglitch , in Elon Musk’s rightward turn includes a fringe fascination: Civil war

I mean, surely we can all see this approaching?

lolcatnip ,

Yeah, I didn’t think he’s writing about it happening. But fuck him for doing everything he can to make it more likely.

AFC1886VCC , in ‘Bumble fumble’: online dating apps struggle as people swear off swiping

Has anyone tried Facebook dating?

And before anyone says its Facebook, yes I know. I’m just wondering how it compares.
