Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

Why didn't I see any Columbian Covfefe skeets when those shenanigans were going down?

Bob Costas just told a story about how Ichiro called Derek Jeter by his middle name, Sanderson. In 2010, before a Reds/Mariners spring game, it was me, Ichiro and Ken Griffey Jr., left in the clubhouse talking Like me, Ken goes by his middle name. Ichiro called him by his first name, George

NEW: Meta has quietly dismantled the system that prevented misinformation from spreading in the United States. Machine-learning classifiers that once identified viral hoaxes and limited their reach have now been switched off, Platformer has learned www.platformer.news/meta-ends-mi...
Behind the scenes, the company was also quietly dismantling a system to prevent the spread of misinformation. When the company announced on Jan. 7 that it would end its fact-checking partnerships, the company also instructed teams responsible for ranking content in the company’s apps to stop penalizing misinformation, according to sources and an internal document obtained by Platformer.

The result is that the sort of viral hoaxes that ran roughshod over the platform during the 2016 US presidential election — “Pope Francis endorses Trump,” Pizzagate, and all the rest — are now just as eligible for free amplification on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads as true stories.
