  • “The BBC respects freedom of expression but stands firmly against incitement to violence. The antisemitic sentiments expressed by Bob Vylan were utterly unacceptable and have no place on our airwaves…The team were dealing with a live situation but with hindsight we should have pulled the stream during the performance. We regret this did not happen.”

    British state media is absolute trash. Everything that comes out of it should be considered false before proven otherwise by a reputable source.


  • Pretty impressive that a smartphone company, that’s kinda like the Apple of China, decided to just make a car, and within a decade came out with one of the best cars ever made. If anyone hasn’t, I highly recommend watching some reviews of the SU-7.

    Neat to see that Ford’s CEO sees the writing on the wall and is sounding the alarm, but he has no power to change the company’s overall direction, and it will go the way of the dodo. Ford has the reputation of a company that sells oversized trucks to obnoxious overbearing US patriots who are more likely to be drunk driving and kill an innocent person than any other vehicle on the road.

    I’m starting to get annoyed by seeing the same post 4 or 5 times in a row. I sort by New and since the posting happens concurrently, they just spam my feed with a page of identical posts.

    lemmy-ui has a front page de-duplicator that combines cross-posted links (preferring the first one, but showing the others in a single text line) so you don’t see them multiple times in the feed. Any other front end could add this, the code freely available for anyone to use.

    so it would be necessary to aggregation crosspost comments, interleaving them under the single, unique, unfiltered post.

    lemmy’s GetPostResponse contains a list of crossposts, and it’s up to UI’s if they want to try to combine comments from those (by calling getcomments), in whatever way they’d like. In lemmy-ui we’ve chosen to link the posts at the top rather than combine comment threads.
