ya know, I’ve looked into it. one of the biggest problems with bots is that they have to be hosted from somewhere. that’s my first hiccup.

I’d LOVE to make this a bot, but I don’t know where I’d host it from.

History

Mint Press News is an independent Minnesota-based news website launched in 2012 by Mnar Muhawesh. It covers political, economic, foreign affairs, and environmental issues. According to their about page, “We focus our coverage on issues relating to the effects of special interest groups, big business and lobbying efforts and how they shape policies at home and abroad, including American foreign policy. Through the lens of social justice and human rights, we report on how these dynamics drive our foreign affairs and impact the world, and examine the effects they have on our democracy and freedoms as defined by the constitution.”

Analysis / Bias

Mint Press presents news with a strong left-leaning bias in story selection. Headlines and articles use moderately loaded language like this: NFL Freezes Policy Barring Players From Kneeling During Anthem. This particular story is republished from the conspiracy website ZeroHedge. Typically, Mint Press sources their information, but sometimes it is from Mixed factual or conspiracy websites. In general, story selection moderately favors the left, such as this Trump Administration Opens Door for Corporate Attack on Vulnerable Wildlife.

they’ve always tacitly been cool with it. they’ve dropped little hints like this into their games since the 90s.

it was such a dumb, unnecessary death. I do admit to being a bit biased, as I had/have a bit of a crush on Conner Trineer :)

I’ll never forgive them for killing Tripp. he was always my favorite.

when my cat acts like this, I just know he’s peed someplace he shouldn’t have.

it’s… different and takes some getting used to. it also depends on which client you choose to use.

[–] bauhaus@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

get started here by choosing a matrix client: https://matrix.org/ecosystem/clients/

Matrix is a federated alternative to Discord that is both open source and highly concerned with user privacy. It’s also very popular here on Lemmy, and a lot of communities here use it.
