Re: Jimmy wales launching a twitter and facebook rival
wt.social now returns a 500 error: trustcafe.io does not return any errors. yet. :^) Yup, wt.social is abandoned. Another wonderful Jimbo invention goes to pot. Don't be too surprised if spammers seize it and fill it with garbage within a few months. Trust Cafe hasn't changed much--just the same po...

Re: Crap or questionable articles
Newslinger tried to soak WMF for $10,000 but they apparently didnt go for it. s/he shouldve consulted with Harej and Isarra. the domain for sourceror dot org is "1337 Services LLC". they apparently host some antifa stuff and some German stuff. :shrug: Most of the sites Newslinger's "company" hosts ...

Re: Crap or questionable articles
Wanna see a 2019 editwar that resulted in nothing but a tagged article? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Medicaid_Estate_Recovery_Program FYI: nearly the entire article was written by NormSpier . Exactly the type of editor Wikipedia really needs more of. He tried to write an article about the MERP...

Re: Crap or questionable articles
Here we are in the 21st century. Millions of people are driving hybrid electric/combustion vehicles today. It is a major submarket in the enormous global automotive business. But if you want to read about hybrid cars, the principal WP article is a semicoherent, broken, sad mess that apparently hasn'...

Re: The Anonymous Comrades Collective has figured out who StoneToss is....
The notorious neo-Nazi cartoonist StoneToss , who started out as RedPanels (which are/were the names of their online strips) has been revealed as Hans Kristian Graebener , an IT guy for a firm in Houston, Texas. Gee, I knew this already. He was "doxed" on 4chan a few years ago---they just didn't bo...

Re: Wikipedia trannies beauty show
I think that's the TWELFTH major WP insider and early FOJ to "switch teams". At least of those I know of--could easily be several others who are anonymous and unidentified.
And because I can't think like a hardcore nerd/whatever, the reason for this escapes me completely.
Thanks for catching it.

Re: New WPO blogpost - "Nihonjoe Has Been Naughty"
How charming--someone posts more evidence , and gets banned an hour later for "abusively using multiple accounts" etc etc. Of course there was an edit war on Brad R. Torgersen. He is one of the "Sad Puppies". Wiki-leftists despise them, despite knowing little or nothing about that whole story. They ...

Re: Is Wikipedia broken?
What wait they over threw Jimbo? :? You need to keep up. Wikipedia is SO unhinged, the newer "patroller" types started efforts to unseat him as "leader" back in 2010. Partly because he tried to delete their rude little peepee photos on Commons. Many of the old-timey insiders still regard him as the...
