May be dropping Facebook soon

[IdRatherBeSkiing]

I see sub-forums with a green "new" tag. Then I go into there, and the new threads are bolded. I know there's a "latest posts" panel on the right, but I don't need to look at it much.

There have been a few times where I saw that Channel98 made a new post, and I go to the post; and then later, I go back and it says that same post is new. Perhaps that is due to his edits. But I'm not getting notified in real-time. It's only when I go back to the site, or refresh the page, that I'd see that.

I use this entry point to view this forum:

New posts

www.digitalradiocentral.com

And yes, the same post as new is what causes it to re-appear. I don't know until I click on the post that it is a repost.

I'm sure we all remember my Facebook reels saga. It's been fine for quite a while now. Until this morning.

I had to put the black line in there. WTF??

 

[IdRatherBeSkiing]

You have something against breast feeding? At least she hat the courtesy of showing the other one for onlookers. You have too many black lines.

 

[HecticArt]

Are you saying that black lines don't matter?
Shame on you.

I like how the dude in the next pix looks like he's takin' a peek.

Facebook needs to hire some people to remove fake stories and fake photos and ban the morons who post them. One story, accompanied by an A.I.-created photo, said a 3-year-old girl who survived the recent Texas floods was found semi-conscious and clinging to a dog. The story is fake. Another story said Paul McCartney donated $3.5 million to the flood recovery efforts. The story is fake. Another story said Micky Dolenz made a huge donation and visited a shelter in Austin where he entertained by singing Monkees songs. The story is fake. Micky posted a video to tell everyone the story is fake.

Tonight some moron posted a story that Paul McCartney's nine-year-old grandson Arthur died in the flood. The story is fake. Arthur is alive and well – and he's 26!

They used to have people who were on top of that stuff. But they were accused of bias, so now they're gone.

When even the more “serious” journalists are now committing daily journalistic malpractice, social media is only going to be worse.

There is another fake story on Facebook that says Paul donated 50 million dollars.

And even worse, I get my news from a Macedonian teenager who makes ad money off of people who click on things they WANT to be true

A town in North Macedonia that became famous for spreading "fake news" to U.S. voters ahead of the 2016 presidential election is back at it in 2020.

Internet researchers at Stanford University say "partisan clickbait" websites in Veles, North Macedonia, are once again posing as conservative U.S. news outlets in order to gather online advertising revenue.

More evidence that the default video shorts/reels are programmed to assume everybody is a perv.

I opened a Windows Sandbox (testing area that loads Windows inside of Windows) then went to YouTube (not signed in) and this is what the brand new 'never been to this website/no viewing history' comes up with for recommended videos.



Daddy's morning routine???

 

[scotchandcigar]

You have cookies and history on your computer, that indicates you want to see stuff like this.

 

[sadchild]

Nope! It's my work computer where I wouldn't go anywhere near that stuff. But it's a totally separate Windows install that can't reach out into the Windows outside of it.

I think the webcam on your work computer is tapping into your brain through your eyes, and knows what you like.

 

[HecticArt]

The computer knows that you're a guy......

So...........naughty girls.

Note that the "daddy's morning routine" has half a million views. I am not one of them...

On July 11 – Go look! – I wrote, "Facebook needs to hire some people to remove fake stories and fake photos and ban the morons who post them." Since then, there have been more than 50 fake, AI-created movie posters posted on Facebook. All the (fake) movies are remakes, sequels or live-action versions of animated films: Shrek, Tangled, Brave, Aladdin, Frozen, Popeye, Grease, Home Alone, Lizzie McGuire, Monsters Inc., Ice Age, Christmas With The Kranks, The Mighty Ducks, The Good Dinosaur, The Princess Diaries, The Three Caballeros, Three Men & A Baby, Pirates Of The Caribbean and many more.

Most of the fake posters have "2025" in parentheses at the bottom. Many have misspellings, e.g., MonsterInc 2, A Charhae Brown Christmas, The Three Cabaleros, Little House On The Pratrie. One poster of a "new"(and fake) Charlie Brown Christmas includes two Snoopys and three Lucys in the background! A poster of a (fake) live-action Flintstones movie shows Adam Sandler as Fred Flintstone standing next to a Wilma whose hair is black, not red! A poster of a (fake) The Sound Of Music 2 (2025) shows Julie Andrews (who is 89) and Christopher Plummer (who died in 2021).

Very few people point out that the posters are fake and created with AI. The majority of the comments are from gullible schmucks who say they're looking forward to the movie or gullible schmucks who say they like the original movie and it doesn't need a remake or sequel.

Facebook is now filled with fake news stories, fake photos, fake videos and fake movie posters. It has become "Fakebook."
