• Odd “artist” in fmbot that I don’t recall

  You can open the artist page for dailydot.com, and under the header you shoud see the number of your scrobbles which you can click on. That leads you to your library page for that artist name where you can click on "Delete artist from library". You will be asked to confirm that you really want to delete this artist, and afterwards the scrobbles should be gone. Source: 12 months ago

• How come dailydot's content is original, appreciated by Google, and also AdSense-approved?

  I just read a few articles on dailydot.com, and it appears that all they do is convert the video to text and then paste it into their articles. For example, check out this article. I mean, except for 2-3 lines of original text or content, if I may call it that, is it just speech to text from the TikTok video posted by someone?

• BuzzFeed, after gutting its newsroom, asks reporters to produce even more — Meanwhile, the company's stock is struggling, revenue is in free fall, and editorial ambitions remain hazy

  The terrible part is they completely poisoned the name "buzzfeed" because buzzfeednews.com (not buzzfeed.com) does some amazing journalism. Among other stories they are the ones who received the leaked "FinCen Files" which showed that FinCen (the US govt agency in charge of monitoring suspicious financial transactions) was basically not doing anything and money laundering was freely happening under their watch and...

• Algeria, and the relationship between lead and iq

  You're focusing on the wrong side effect of lead, studies have shown that exposure to lead in the air increases violence and crimes, and the effect can last up to 20 years. I'm more concerned about that than some arbitrary whimsical IQ test on buzzfeed.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• Buzzfeed shouldn’t be suggested as a news site

  If I type in "nytimes.com" right now, I get news stories and midterm analysis first. If I type in "buzzfeed.com" the main story is "I Apologize In Advance, But Non-Americans Think These 18 American Foods Are Absolutely 'Disgusting”. You have to click on the logo and find your way over to Buzzfeed news, which to me at least, would suggest their news section is of secondary importance and isn't the main component of...
