Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

It’s that SCMP quality shining through.
I read that as SMBC and was ready to throw down in their defense
What does scmp stand for?
South China Morrning Post
Not really. MBFC has itself proven somewhat biased. I'm not particularly impressed with how they described Al Jazeera as 'biased' when they're more factual and balanced than most western sources.
I find them somewhat useful when you use it on a relatove scale, but yeah it's pretty useless in a vacuum
Ah, yes, just one last search. "In days" based on "new leads."
It’s always the last place you look.
Yeah but only cuz you stop looking afterwards!
It would be really weird if you kept looking after finding it.
It would be weirder if you found it again after you already found it and continued looking.
I would like this aircraft to be found for the families, and to solve the mystery of what happened. I'd like to locate the black boxes to see if any data could still be retrieved.
I would search the area that the pilot flew on his flight simulator, but it still seems like a very difficult task, without any certainty of success. I have doubts that the aircraft is mostly intact, and that the black boxes would be found.
Sadly I don’t even think finding the plane would end the mystery. The cockpit voice recorder only records a short loop, and it’s likely the audio of the hijacking will be gone. And Malaysia will fight hard against ent evidence of the captain hijacking it. People will still pedal dumb alternative theories and conspiracy theories.
They ban for posting SCMP
Should I delete? I didn't see it specifically in the sidebar.
An expert hijacker purposefully hiding the wreck seems pretty far fetched.
