[Odoo is Python based](https://github.com/odoo/odoo) and the 'core' modules are open -

Not providing any endorsement of the software nor can I say how the Odoo CRM/CMS compares to Salesforce. I've tried migrating a non Salesforce business to Odoo twice and haven't had success yet.

>However, this was not an oversight but a conscious decision, underscoring his commitment to uphold freedom of speech over profits.

Why did the same commitment to speech over profit not apply to his decision making when he filtered Substack, or Mastadon URLs?

Seems unlikely. Anyone other than Elon saying this happened?

I would hardly call FT state propaganda in any circumstance. To me true state propaganda is where the state has editorial authority over the dissemination of stories - in the west that still relatively rare.

But absolutely independent of whether FT are propaganda - it does not matter in any way to this story whether they are a 'protected class'. The outrage is that TikTok employees abused their user data in the pursuit of an agenda against targeted individuals.

Elon flies in Gulfstream G650ER jet. As required by the FAA, it is equipped with an ADS-B transponder which broadcasts its position in the clear. Just as traveling on public roads means that you are visible and observable to the public, flying via public roads does not guarantee total privacy - the service that @elonjet was using is maintained by private volunteers, who use their personal network of SDR receivers to spot and aggregate flight data.

"Real time location" means the real time landing of an aircraft at an airport. I don't think people who fly in private aircraft should have a reasonable expectation of complete privacy if they're using public airspace and safety systems maintained by public authorities. If government officials / air force one can cope with being tracked by radio transponders transmitting in the clear, I don't know why Elon expects he can do any better.

The incident Elon purports to have taken issue was forty miles away from an airport days after his jet had last been spotted by @elonjet.

>people will use cryptocurrency with increasing frequency.

For what? "Value storage" and grey/black market purchases and laundering? Because the dream of crypto being used as money for real everyday transactions looks more and more preposterous with each passing day.

Porque no los dos?

Is there a possibility of the free tier no longer being available in the future?

I would hugely prefer that journalists and media organizations be incentivized by subscription revenue than by click revenue and other parasitic ventures.

If you have a username, content is pretty much permanently archived on the pushshift.io API

https://pushshift.io/api-parameters/

A weakness for the specific application you are interested in is that I don't think it works with banned or quarantined subreddits - the archived dumps probably have that, but not the main API feed

> Reddit moderators who run subreddits are given the choice to allow the function. When it’s enabled, it’s used as a filter to sort out divisive posts from the rest but also leads to problems like abuse based on opinions and introducing a feeling of negativity into the communities.

Just want to clarify this: reddit inc. doesn't really offer communities a way to "disable" downvoting. The subreddits referenced at the link in this article are using the custom CSS to hide the downvote button. Notably this does not impact users who are browsing 1) via the mobile app, a substantial to majority percentage of traffic based on the community in question 2) with custom CSS disabled [which can be done via a global reddit setting or via popular extensions like RES 3) via the reddit desktop redesign ['r3']. In the desktop redesign, some communities try to continue hiding downvotes by using the customization tools to set the button to a transparent png - but this is blatantly ineffective - the downvote hitbox remains accessible and feedback is offered to the user on a successful click when they see the score change.

I have some experience with this, having helped researcher Nate Matias test the impact of downvote behavior in a community I'm involved with. You can see the summary of the resulting paper Do Downvote Buttons Cause Unruly Online Behavior? here https://citizensandtech.org/2018/01/do-downvote-buttons-caus...

It's running surprisingly fast on FF 88 for me, just for the record.

Andrew Anglin, operator of The Daily Stormer is famously one of the biggest 'influencers' to move to the original Gab platform, and he remains fairly active there. Gab's front page has been tuned over time to be less egregious, but I have been poking around the site for a long time and remember when even in logged out view the home page would be a lot of altright / TDS type of posts filled with general /pol/ tier takes.

And though the main feed / explore page is not quite as openly tilted toward that audience today, the 'groups' features not one but three QAnon groups, which appear to be some of the largest on the site.

In short - if you've been looking at Gab's content since their inception, it be hard not to see activity from some prominent altright/stormer users, and there remains a large quantity of both weird political extremism and general cultism promoted at the top level of the site.

> Hummingbard is dependent on Dendrite, the second-generation Matrix homeserver written in Go. Features like spaces and threading have only been implemented on Dendrite. Note that it is a forked repo with a temporary patch for paginating threads.

Pretty interesting. I was putting a little effort to get a Dendrite homeserver running a month or two ago and it was non-trivial at that time for me - but evidently the author feels it's stable enough to run an experimental project like this.

The first few Q Anon branded 'drops' were on 4chan, but quickly relocated to the original 8chan.

It is all but assured that there have been several different authors of the identity 'Q Anon'.

Like all social media / user generated platforms, paid promotion is constantly being passed as legitimate content in some shape or form - but there's not really any reason to believe that reddit capitalizes on that themselves.

To look at how reddit is monetizing their platform, it seems straight forward to look at their advertiser page, and see how they try to pitch their ad platform. Paid promotions - which have become somewhat of a first party feature on Youtube for example -aren't discussed.

The headlines on this story are all over the place - I think the one that does the least to inject their own voice is NPR:

>[Facebook And Twitter Limit Sharing New York Post Story About Joe Biden](https://www.npr.org/2020/10/14/923766097/facebook-and-twitte...)

In comparison, there's Bloomberg:

>[Facebook Slows Spread of N.Y. Post Biden Story to Fact-Check](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-10-14/facebook-...)

Or CNBC:

>[Facebook, Twitter make editorial decisions to limit distribution of story claiming to show ‘smoking gun’ emails related to Biden and his son](https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/14/facebook-makes-editorial-dec...)

I question if the National Review is really the best home for this story.

I'm referring to Giuliani, who is the New York Post's source for these alleged emails and photos, acting as a supposed intermediary for a repair shop employee. Giuliani has been tasked for two years with digging up dirt on Biden, and every single story he has pushed has in my view, been outright fabricated agenda pushing based on narratives spun by dubious third parties.

Evidently Twitter feels that gives him special privileges, but they've been flagging his posts as possible misinformation for months. Clearly they're trying to find a way to navigate a difficult situation. I think they should be erring toward better control of disinformation, certainly not being more laissez-faire about a problem that is destroying the world.

It's a newspaper collaborating with the president's personal lawyer, who is already the subject of investigations into persons in violation of the Foreign Agent Registration Act, during the run up to an incredibly contentious election after these networks - Facebook and Twitter- have already been accused of allowing rampant disinformation campaigns. If they had reason to believe that the information was part of a malicious campaign, I can see why that might spur them to action.

What's the probability that the story they're blocking is 100% bullshit? And if they have evidence or signals of that, does that weigh in to your opinion on their intervention?

>It seems like this computer shop fellow voluntarily gave over this hard drive only after the computer in question became his property (as a result of someone not collecting the computer and not paying the bill)

To say this strains credulity would be be a massive understatement.

Qmap definitely had a direct relationship with Jim Watkins and 8kun. The full of extent of their partnership is not yet known but it appears Watkins was doing part of the infrastructure hosting for Qmap. There is also strong suspicion that Watkins either writes the current incarnation of 'Qanon' or directs whoever is writing the posts.

The one feature I wish FF had is a UI based profile switcher - container tabs, which are now relegated to being an extension, simply are not cutting it for me. Does anyone know if there's a chance of that making it into the roadmap within the next couple years?
