Techrights-sec | gemini-make-feed.pl seems not to run at all | Feb 26 14:12 |
schestowitz-TR | chat not updating was likely my fault | Feb 26 14:12 |
schestowitz-TR | watch was running in a window too small | Feb 26 14:12 |
schestowitz-TR | it goes a line long every day | Feb 26 14:12 |
Techrights-sec | Most of the others seem to run. | Feb 26 14:33 |
Techrights-sec | The wiki gets updated, for example. | Feb 26 14:33 |
Techrights-sec | more "tweets" in place of reliable news sources by mainstream media has | Feb 26 15:26 |
Techrights-sec | gotten much worse | Feb 26 15:26 |
schestowitz-TR | I've become more 'mean-spirited' towards social conterol media as a whole | Feb 26 15:27 |
schestowitz-TR | there is no assumption that people need to have a badsi understanding | Feb 26 15:27 |
schestowitz-TR | to comment on some subjects | Feb 26 15:27 |
schestowitz-TR | even stallman.org is full of guates'; guardian, soi I deleted that | Feb 26 15:27 |
schestowitz-TR | from my rss feeds | Feb 26 15:27 |
schestowitz-TR | I would rather read nothing at all about some topic than read bullshit about it | Feb 26 15:27 |
Techrights-sec | The misuse of tweets in place of news sources and in place of official | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | communicaton channels has worsened greatly. It is accepted as normal by | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | the "news" these days and not considered in light of its fundamental | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | drawbacks. | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | Unfortuantely the bullshit is all the news is starting to produce since they;ve | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | given on investigation. Also they are pushed into bullshit by (worst of all) | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | politicians and agencies which insist on makeing press statements via | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | social control media, perhaps even knowing full well that it is unreliable | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | afiltered and skewed. | Feb 26 15:31 |
Techrights-sec | Thus feeding the disinformation cycle. | Feb 26 15:31 |
schestowitz-TR | yes, exactly | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | unlike you (I think(, I'm not all negatuive | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | some decent news sources do exist | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | they are not so well known | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | and can be audited on the fly | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | trhen rejected | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | we do not need 1000 newsrooms | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | the main issue then is, | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | a lot of people around us are led to believe in BS | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | even rianne | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | who gets too much ""news" from gulagtube and billBC | Feb 26 15:33 |
schestowitz-TR | hence I was doing some fact checks lately | Feb 26 15:33 |
Techrights-sec | Ak | Feb 26 15:36 |
Techrights-sec | ack | Feb 26 15:36 |
Techrights-sec | my main complaint in the abobe is that the "news" articles from many services | Feb 26 15:36 |
Techrights-sec | have been leading in with "X tweeted that" or "X tweeted from their official | Feb 26 15:36 |
Techrights-sec | account that " and other sewage. | Feb 26 15:36 |
Techrights-sec | as everywhere else too | Feb 26 15:36 |
schestowitz-TR | I too write crap in social control media sometimes | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | but I make it very clear, if typos do not give it aay, | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | that theofficial messages are not in IRC | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | or in some site that has hashtag | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | the IRC channels have lately been devolving into russian/east euroe chat | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | and that is not what techrights is actually about at all | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | today I saw osnews adding a ukraine flag to their site's logo | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | I doi not think their authors (still) have any connectiuon to that country | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | those who i think were russian left ages ago | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | some french diustro I nsaw yesterday (new release) added a message of | Feb 26 15:37 |
schestowitz-TR | solidarity toi the front page | Feb 26 15:37 |
Techrights-sec | "twactivism" is very empty, it has no effect | Feb 26 15:38 |
Techrights-sec | cutting of SWIFT would be a start but that's not "twactivism" or even activism | Feb 26 15:38 |
schestowitz-TR | every "like" receive is time wasting, not doing something that mibht | Feb 26 15:38 |
schestowitz-TR | actually have a real impact | Feb 26 15:39 |
schestowitz-TR | there was a US president (apparently) for 4 years who wrote lots of crap | Feb 26 15:40 |
schestowitz-TR | all hat crap vanished before he even finished his term | Feb 26 15:40 |
schestowitz-TR | but there was a lot of toxic residue in many peoplee's minds | Feb 26 15:40 |
Techrights-sec | ack | Feb 26 15:48 |
Techrights-sec | and social ccontol media, twitter in particular, fed off that anyway | Feb 26 15:48 |
schestowitz-TR | iirc, those were the only years Twitter ever temporarily made somem profit | Feb 26 15:49 |
Techrights-sec | annual or only quartely? I think only the latter happened. | Feb 26 15:50 |
schestowitz-TR | I did not check closely enough to see 4 consecutive quarters | Feb 26 15:50 |
