CNN, here in the States, broke the fake news story that Kim Jung Un was dead. Not sure how it spread around the world, unless the world gets its news, unfortunately, from CNN too.

what if it were true? Not everything that is on the internet is bullsh1t.
To be really honest here, it is IMPOSSIBLE to tell the difference most of the time, when CNN is telling you he is presumed dead. CNN. CNN. not some stupid twitter conspiracy theorist account, but CNN, is spreading fake news.
How can we believe anything, anymore...we can't. Lies become truth, and truth becomes lies.

I think it's been known for a while now that CNN is less than competent, and not even trustworthy.

cheer up, "cnn," "washington post" and "msnbc" are becoming the most common exclusion terms when people search for news online.
still not enough people smart enough though

I said that bullsh1t spreads very fast in social networks. See the dummy things about corona the last months...

Show me where CNN said Kim Jong Il was dead.

Quote: The US is monitoring intelligence that suggests North Korea's leader, Kim Jong Un, is in grave danger after undergoing a previous surgery, according to a US official with direct knowledge.
Quote: everything in this report has been proven to be bullshit.
CNN reported on what US officials were saying. They did not, themselves, report that Kim Jong Il was dead.
It's the US officials who have a credibility problem, not CNN.
Would you be saying the same thing if Fox News posted the same story?

I get the point that your bias portrayed a story in a way that wasn't true.

they never talked to U.S. Officials. that's the point. Every single thing that these "U.S. Officials" said were not true; so why would U.S. Officials go on record if they knew it was not true.
Fox News did not cover this story till 5 days later because they new it was crap.
BTW, I don't have a bias. I don't trust Fox News anymore than I trust CNN. They both have an agenda.
But I find it interesting that you blindly defend CNN without researching their "facts" first.

Oh really? You willing to bet your life on that?

And from an even shakier source too...
I didn't "blindly defend CNN". I questioned your accusation. So yes, I do my homework. I fact checked you.

What about 5 days later can you not understand? I never said they did not cover the story. That article came out 2 days ago.
|
|
|
|

Yeah, but 5 days later they still haven't figured out it's bullshit!
|
|
|
|

Now. Now. It took them 5 days because they are a propaganda organisation. Not a news company!

Hello,
I have access control application called db digitus which is used SQL server to storing data and retrieving. once i search for access control even report , i am getting this error "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding". Can anybody help me to fix this issue please?
thank you

Try posting in the SQL forum.
btw, could be an incorrect connection string.

The lounge isn't for programming questions. Likely your db-query and/or processing of it is taking too long.

The message you have got is fairly generic for a million and one database issues and does not necessary mean that you have a timeout despite the words in the message. I get the message a lot. Often it is intermittent and can be got around by re-requesting the transaction? If that is the case in your situation, I'm afraid it is one of the "tough - that's life, live with it" problems. If the same transaction always gives the problem then it might be your SQL that is at fault - too complex query, bad indexing (i.e. wrong items being indexed), trying to return too many rows / columns, no caching etc etc - in which case it should be posted on the database forum.

I've seen and solved it; sometimes it is the query, sometimes it is the processing of the results; and before you even dare to make an offer, make it a fakkin' sweet one, since I aint tempted easily, especially not after a lecture of someone who is swimming in sand.
Get back to your basket, I'm in a foul mood.

Yesterday I asked "Why learn Rust", mostly because I was curious but seeking encouragement while facing the overwhelming existential dread of having to configure my system...
Then I distractedly did it while youtubing and.. well, that was easy!
So... why not do it hey?!
Here is how:
Step 1. Install VS Code (there is a one click installer ask google)
Step 2. Install Rust (rls) extension (click on the 4 cubes icon the left, type rust, click install)
Step 3. As per RustRls extension description, install Rust tool (google it, there is a one click windows installer for it)
=> You now have intellisense and mouse hover tips / documentation!
You are now ready to go, err.. I mean rust!
I had 0 configuration, just run 3 installers!
(might have to restart, I did restart since I was also checking windows update)
Additional optional step, I want to press F5 and debug!
I had to google 2 minute to find out how! (phew)
Step 4. Install the VS Code extensions "C/C++" (by microsoft)
Step 4a. (tricky) I had to find a mysterious hidden setting I can't find again which enable breakpoints everywhere
Step 5 create a debug config in your system, Run > Add Configuration, choose "C++ Windows Launch", then edit the .vscode\launch.json file "program" variable to point to your program
Finally Rust documentation
The Rust Programming Language - The Rust Programming Language
You too can become a Rustacean now!
