Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

While citing web forums and discussion boards can help users find answers to more niche queries, this design choice could also prove chaotic.

I would've been more amused if we get results like:

"I'm guessing this computer motherboard has 3 USB ports?" One reddit user says

Another reddit user says "ACTUALLY, there's 6 USB ports and TWO of them are 3.2!"

The results would just argue with themselves because that's Reddit in a nutshell for you.
