They have to use this language to stay out of legal trouble. Saying things you know aren’t true is indeed lying, but you have to prove that they know it’s a lie.
Intention to deceive is the key part, and hard to prove. So journalists play it on the safe side and just keep to the facts: they repeated false claims / statements.
I guess I should have been more specific, I apologize. What is the relation to the word “mander” and the topic of the instance?
Maybe not the perfect place to ask, but under topic specific instances, mander is highlighted. What topic is this?

Let’s not give Microsoft our clicks, shall we?
I presume this is not OC but the cat is probably hearing a noise and reacting to that. Still makes for a funny vid tho
Tell me what the punchline is and I’ll upvote
I don’t think there’s a big problem by using upvotes, downvotes and comments as systems that can show the popularity or controversy of a post.
Imo the bigger problem is in the comments using the same voting system. For starters, everyone the system in a different way. Most notably example is downvoting to disagree.
Secondly, because we are evolutionary wired to try and fit in, you either consciously or subconsciously try to create a comment that will give you the best chances at seeing the numbers go up and receive validation from your peers.
Personally I think the system is fine to keep running under the hood to keep the sorting algorithms available and maybe for moderation purposes, but it would be great if we wouldn’t be able to see them at all as to not be influenced by the connections we make between votes and post content.
It’s definitely a dosage thing, but cats don’t really have any brakes when it comes to chewing on shit. So they will chew anything that looks like grass, which can be dangerous when you have toxic succulents that have large leaves.
I second the drainage comment, hopefully it does have holes at the bottom. Otherwise instead of succulents I would recommend OP to put in “air plants” (Tillandsia) as they don’t need soil and draw moisture from the air.
There are apps that can help identify plants if you’re not sure what you’re looking at. Highly recommend to ID them just in case. Some can be irritating, others can make your pets very sick. Please be careful!
Please double check the types of succulents in there! I think they are safe (the crassula perforata variegata is safe at least), but some can be toxic to cats!
An example could be AliExpress, with a 130B in revenue and 11B in profit (2023), it would reduce their profit to 3.2B with the 6% fine. That’s a whopping 70% less profits, and cutting expenses isn’t gonna fix it either.
If you cared to read the article, you will find that they also are investigating AliExpress, Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok.
It’s 6% of revenue, not profit. So it cuts even more into profits as it doesn’t allow a company in breach of regulations to reduce the impact of the fine by adding expenses that will temporarily lower their profit.
Even more spicy, they can also impose periodic penalties up to 5% of the average daily worldwide turnover for each day of delay in complying. That shit can bankrupt you.
I didn’t see anything in the article and the X embeds are just text to me, so here’s a video: https://youtu.be/cu9OnPo5IIE
If you like to stay in good spirits, don’t read the comments.
She had served as the clerk without controversy for two decades as an elected Republican, and she flew a flag at her own home that read: “Trump 2024 — Take America Back.”
Seems it could go either way
Lol I was thinking of this one when I saw the thread title. Still, I don’t see a way to filter those out
Thanks. Work in progress, we’ll call it
What does them being circled signify?
