Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

It's not his fault Curling just isn't as sexy as it sounds.

[–] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Are you kidding? Anyone who can do that sport at a high level of skill can rock any lover’s world.

Yes. But there are women who like hockey players, and women who like men who can use a broom. There is little overlap.

Put it this way, if you had to choose MFK between a homemaker, a hockey player, and an Olympic curler...I think I know which will get which.

I don't think Reddit trademarked TIHI. It's okay.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 2 months ago

One of the ski jumpers put all of them on before being measured

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Has anyone checked the bedside table of that Norwegian athlete? Maybe he's been hording them.

[–] Zorcron@piefed.zip 4 points 2 months ago

Ah yes, Condoms Georg.

[–] laranis@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 months ago

So, I'm sure there is a fair amount of goings on going on, but I have to wonder if they're branded? Because even if I was the least promiscuous person in the camp I'd be pocketing loads of Winter Olympics (TM) condoms as souvenirs for my friends and family back home.

[–] AnchoriteMagus@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Olympic Village is notoriously horny, and the Italian organizers provided only 3% of previous games' supplies.

No shit they ran out.

[–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Isn’t there always a shortage? And isn’t it only ever on the news so that condom makers can get some free advertisement?

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

A buncg broke when the hyaluronic'd up skiiers tried them on

[–] riskable@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

Apparently Italians don't give a fuck.

[–] aceshigh@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Why is this making the news? Who care?
