Ah. I get it now.
My work is forcing me to use Edge, and Edge is giving me news when I open up a new tab, and I’m upset to notice that the news seems to alternate between Raw Story and Daily Mail for “balance”.
The choice of the Lemmy title to match the Raw Story title is understood.
I’m giving the more general guidance to do the extra work to track down Raw Story’s source, the Guardian in this case, and to link directly to that.
Raw Story is always a repost, generally sensationalized, and not always with a link to the source.
Best to find the original reporting: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/oct/07/trump-aide-corey-lewandowski-sidelined
This is the underlying article written by Caroline Giuliani: https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/caroline-giuliani-trump-kamala-harris
Sorry, I see that basically all of this information was in the original article as well.
This article traces the source of this particular long-time delusion / fabrication:
After Trump made the claim in 2019, Trott contacted CNN to note that at a roundtable event with automotive executives in 2017, Trump had suggested he received the “Man of the Year” award at a 2013 event in Michigan where Trott had invited him to give a speech, a Lincoln Day dinner Trott had chaired in Oakland County. At that event, Trott gave Trump a framed copy of Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address and other gifts. But Trott emphatically noted that he did not give Trump any “Man of the Year” award, nor did anyone else there.

Seems like it should be an easy fix for Sync for Lemmy to use post_ids instead of post_id.
In the meantime, I guess I’ll poke around for an alternate Android client.
Sea level?
It once worked magically for me to watch television.
When I search for this setting in Sync it shows up.
But when I click on it it goes to a page that does not offer the setting either at the top level or buried inside of anything else.
When I go to look for this setting again in my home instance, I find that it is in fact now correctly set. It was not correctly set when I posted. So my fix stuck.
I assume, as someone else suggested, that there’s some caching going on somewhere, either on the transmitting end or the receiving end.
That’s fair: as far as Lemmy knows it was posted by a self-declared bot, even if that puppet later became a real boy.
Thank you. I’m going to try again now.
I’m using sync on Android and I don’t believe that I can change the setting there. I can change the setting for whether I filter bot accounts, and so that confused me for a bit about whether I was misinterpreting that setting.
I did find the setting in a web browser on my home instance. And I thought I corrected it, and I thought I saved my change. Updates and screenshots to follow momentarily.
Is this a setting that defaults to bot‽
I did not know. Thanks for telling me. Fixed.
Yes, agreed.
He did actually. While being beaten. It’s in the article. not/s!
I could be wrong, but my impression is that there is less politics and less bias involved in defining words and and providing pronunciations and etymologies then there is an articles about history and politics and people.
I especially like Wiktionary from the point of view of exploring cognates between languages and etymologies that cross language boundaries, in a big dictionary that covers many languages all at once.
