This is a link post Answers with Chuffley I made this!
Here's episode 2 of that thing. I won't post any more episodes here (I'm not a spamchap) but could you please help me by posing some questions for the next one? Either here or on the video, either would be great. I'm hoping that after a couple more editions the Great Algorithm (Jinsy praise Him) will start recommending my nonsense to, er, anyone,

Thank you!

This is a link post Rishi Sunak's NOTED or NOT? I made this!
From an idea from our Ginger Fuhrer, I bring you "NOTED or NOT?"

You'll see 10 random Rishi tweets. Your task is simple: guess which have been Community Noted.

With much thankings to christhebarker for the Sunak picture, which he coincidentally created with impeccable timing for this project.

I don't use Twitter though. What does being "noted" mean?
(, Wed 24 Jan 2024, 3:40, Reply)
This is a normal post
It basically means that points made in the tweet have been flagged as incorrect or misleading, and users have written notes containing evidence and extra context to correct them. The community votes for the notes that are the most helpful (and truthful). The best voted appear under the tweet.

It is more complicated that this though, and it uses tricks to make it harder for groups of people to take the piss. It's probably the part of Twitter that works best at the moment.

The idea that Twitter users’ votes equate with what is most truthful is hilarious.

I don't think this is gold at all. I think it's bollocks. The guy at the piano sets up all manner of crappy scenarios to feed his YouTube channel., eg. "Policeman plays ragtime piano like a boss!" when it's just him in a police uniform (which is actually illegal)

He cut out the bit when they came over and did some playing and everything was his usual passive-aggressive-nicey-nicey but then became all chippy when they realised he was probably monetising.

They were huge turds too and they're definitely feeling a tree-sized cockslap of streisand effect, so there's that.

Now he's all harry'n'meghan as he posts videos saying "I just want to forget about it" (whilst doing the rounds of TalkTV and Piers Morgan)

For anyone interested, this chap discusses who the 'mysterious chinese' people are (it's disappointingly predictable):

And of course not forgetting the number of car "restorers" who have nicked the Wheeler Dealer idea and add BIG LETTERS to all their videos about how they bought the cheapest/most damaged/destroyed vehicle and then post inane videos of how bad they are at "fixing" them.

Thought we were the dogs dangly bits and played a few gigs before one night the guy who played the Juno (and was the sound guy) took a hissy fit and fucked off taking the sound desk with him. Last I heard he was engineering on the road in the states freelancing for loads of big rock bands. That'll teach him to leave us........
