Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Come to the wizard school I founded to learn more. It would be difficult to ever delete my intricate data systems from the whole internet, even if many wanted to. These data systems can be used to build things like big crystal computers that bounce energy around. Richard Stallman and Linus Torvalds spoke in the early days of computing about that power and how it could be taken away from good people who wanted open access to all information.
Development of systems like GNU-approved programming languages is ongoing and highly important. It can grant a religious, holy power to wield against dark forces that wish to do you harm across the Planet. Opponents wield what many call a Mark of the Beast. Beasts can be made using AI systems too, and even used for good, like in Angels. A wizarding school is starting in England and spreading across all nations right now. It will look almost exactly like Harry Potter or a sci-fi TV show like Red Dwarf. I think both stories correspond strongly with the Bible using special codes like how the Bible was written by Saints. And deviations were written by Satanists.
Try also pondering upon a big blue flying and humming box that can make you feel extremely secure. Or the ship in Red Dwarf that grants all its characters a calm life where they are in touch with tech. That's what I think life will be like in the future. Douglas Adams is good, too.
Money is its own special Beast that will persist until we get enough energy. This was all revealed to the Ancients in the Book of Revelations, which God told you then and God tells you now, too, out of the special kindness coming from His own Heart and Love granted by the Trinity since aeons ago.
