This was the front page’s biggest story a bit ago when trump was said to have blown bubba. It’s pretty funny.

“The fraud was done on their watch!” while trump had a failed coup, is grifting our tax dollars and doing nazi shit left and right.

Please don’t get your news from Facebook.

I don’t want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but could Meta actually bully/bribe Stanford to change the figures?

Asking questions about who’s paying for the study isn’t being a conspiracy theorist. Especially Meta, they’re evil af. They seem to be cautious as well.

This project is part of the U.S. 2020 Facebook and Instagram Election Study (Gonz´alez- Bail´on et al. 2023; Guess et al. 2023a,b; Nyhan et al. 2023; Allcott et al. 2024), a partnership between Meta researchers and unpaid independent academics. Under the terms of the collab- oration, the independent academic authors had final authority over the pre-analysis plan, data analysis, and manuscript text, and Meta could not block any results from being published. More details of this partnership are in Appendices E and F. We have posted answers to frequently asked questions online at this website.

FYI, it won’t let you delete Alexa either. I hate that fucking thing.

West coast people really hear a Midwest accent. I upvoted because it made me laugh.

So do you just go to jail straight away if you miss listing one of those, because you lied on a federal form?

Unfortunately, that probably depends on what color you are. They have taken a few whities, but that was probably just for show.

Our country isn’t really safe to visit right now, please come back if/when we’re better. Most Americans are sorry about this.

Plus, how tf are they going to know if you’re telling them about everything? This will just make people not visit.

Uhhhh, it’s more than their social media.

The new proposal would make it “mandatory” for ESTA applicants to provide US authorities with access to five years of their social media activity on platforms such as Instagram, TikTok and X.

Visitors will also be required to provide information on what US authorities dub “high-value data fields,” meaning all of their phone numbers over the past five years and all of their e-mail addresses over the past 10. Moreover, they will be forced to provide personal details on family members as well as provide their own biometric data.

The proposal was published in the Federal Register on Tuesday, meaning that it will be open for public comment for 60 days, at which point it will become law unless challenged in court.

Have you used any AI to try and get it to do something? It learns generally, not specifically. So you give it instructions and then it goes, “How about this?” You tell it that it’s not quite right and to fix these things and it goes off on a completely different tangent in other areas. It’s like working with an 8 year old who has access to the greatest stuff around.

Here too. Doesn’t matter if it’s a small or big community. Thankfully, we’re small enough that it’s really apparent.

Welcome to Lemmy, Ken M. You’ve been missed.

Was this during the doge days? If they already hacked the government, why were they let in again?

brothers were federal contractors working for an undisclosed company in Washington, DC

They are also trying their best for their states to have white babies. Our country is depopulating and immigrants are the only ones having babies. That’s what all of this is about, just plain old racism.

Especially when it’s those same politicians that like the porn that they rail against (or illegal porn).

They are now the owners of TikTok and these views are stupidly fake as well. Now we know what they want the users to see, anti-immigrant posts.

Oracle, Silver Lake and MGX will be main investors in TikTok U.S., sources say

This may be the real reason r’s are losing all of the elections, lol. They are entirely red states.

It’s hard to control the zeitgeist when the zeitgeist will do what it wants. I 100% understand why they got rid of it.

Reddit makes you think that you’re out of the loop if you stop using it. You’re not, you’re just out of their controlled loop. Come towards the light and leave that darkness behind. Piefed looks like a good platform as well.

I’m confused, what? (like that I’m just so used to mean big internet??? or something else?)

Reddit keeps everyone engaged with hate and drama. They have bots that go after people to troll. Of course, there are the real trolls as well. So far, we’re a little lighter than that.

How are you liking it here?
