Someday you could be part of a daily talk show panel and parrot whatever confirmation bias your audience "needs."

TBH, Google itself is kinda "icky" and has been for awhile.

This tracks perfectly with his generation. They're always around to claim credit in the event of Success, but when there's Failure it's always "Who is responsible?"

On one hand this is a (potentially) great initiative, but on the other it's a bit suspect/sketchy. IF you believe that you're immune to fake news, THEN you're a prime candidate for being conditioned by it.

Critical thinking, the ability to perform actual research (not seeking only sources which agree with your bias), and skepticism go a long way in combating "Fake News", but there's no way that the US Education system is ready to effectively address it when they can't provide basic financial literacy through Grade School.

They're doing SEO wrong, SPD said.

You could hire a resume writer if you're on LinkedIn.

Don't worry, just create an account. They'll find you with offers and guarantees to manipulate ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) on your behalf.

IANAL, but Texas Article 45.0218 would likely offer some protection to the kiddo since it's a Class C Misdemeanor. The short of it is that being held or detained doesn't mean that the individual was "prescribed jail time."

However, since the Texas Observer is shamelessly plugging away and, as a result, search engines may recognize the child's name, then the article (and similar "news" reports) will likely have more disastrous impacts than the actual event since the print industry is declining/desperate and the internet never forgets.

Don't forget the OPM hack in 2014, also assuming you're in the USA and received a military/government background check.

Congrats on the switch. The desktop has a nice vibe to it.

Curiously, did you go with UFS or ZFS for your installation?

TBH, I'm not sure if either of us (The Texas Observer and myself) know what we're talking about. IIRC, Texas classifies felony charges as 1st, 2nd, or 3rd degree offenses and Misdemeanors as Class A, B, or C by their severity.

The fact that they would consider it a "Felony", or anything other than frivolous, is disheartening though I appreciate your efforts to research and correct any potential misinformation that I may have spouted. (Good catch, btw)

SMDH, Texas 🤷

I asked because you may want to look at adjusting the default ARC settings.

The justification for ARC is that to a server system spare memory is wasted memory, although if you're like me you won't like seeing "low memory" messages when all you have open is a terminal.

In my clients defense, "Gotta catch 'em all" is a legal requirement, not an option.

Understood and agreed.

Nobody is making any of us use The Software^(tm)^, my question concerns your decision. Trust is an entirely separate concept and varies greatly depending on the audience.

BTW, It's not just Reddit. ;)

I have an issue to share and it's not major, but some of the links are wrong depending on the UI.

For instance, in the default UI, the link for your Privacy Policy page is This, but it should be This Instead (Note the trailing hyphen on the bad/dead link).

Of course, that's not a major concern and it is very minor, but misplaced legal docs could be problematic long-term.

Thank you for your response. May I ask (since you seem very knowledgeable): Could a singular instance manipulate their backend votes on a single post and have it replicate in order to garner more/less interest?

Example:

UPDATE Posts
SET Updoots = 1000000    -- or SET Updoots = 0
WHERE PostId = 1;

I'll admit that I have not properly studied the ActivityPub implementation as described by activitypub.rocks, but we're all continuously learning.
