I feel like this answer only explains the concept and not how it _actually_ works.

Is it an app? Is it a framework? How would it be used when one is being forced to open up their phone, does it only work within the app itself, or would it boot the phone into an alternate partition? Etc etc...

Also the website is full of AI generated images, buzzwords, and little to no substance.

Explain who decides what a good media diet is.

I guess the fuss is about Bolsonaro being depicted as a dictator in the media and as soon as Lula da Silva takes over, authoritarian measures such as these are pushed forward?

I like and use vim, but this is like saying BMW owners are better drivers.

Re:Dato.rss: The best RSS Search experience on Sunday June 19, 2022 @03:02AM (#31796923)
Which one do you think it is, considering both the functionality of the program and the high possibility of the author not being a native English speaker? For millions of people 'dato' simply means 'date', as in day of the month.

Just as important is to not let the mainstream media do your thinking for you either.
I read it as sarcasm.
