For greater clarity, it’s an issue with Sync for Lemmy continuing to use an API parameter that was formerly deprecated and now entirely removed from Lemmy.

Sync for Lemmy is identifying a post that needs to be marked as read using a single value parameter, but it should use a slightly different parameter that could accept multiple posts.

Everyone is saying no, and I’m no expert, and I believe that for purposes beyond amusement value, the answer basically is no, but…

  1. The times that I’ve had covid, the strength of the T signal has started weak, gotten strong, and then trailed slowly off over the course of days.

  2. Same for family members.

  3. Same for acquaintances who I’ve seen post day-by-day test photos on social media.

  4. I’ve read that if you are vaccinated and boosted, your antigen response kicks in faster and so more closely parallels your communicability curve. That is to say that unvaccinated people will be communicable before home antigen tests start noticing that you’re responding. But people who have had covid or vaccinations will test positive sooner. And specifically I’ve read that during the incubation stage when you are infected but not very communicable yet the tests may miss you, but on the other hand that’s okayish because you’re not very communicable yet.

  5. Everything that everyone has said about all the variability can be at least partially controlled, if you are using the same test batch, in the same location, at the same time of day, following the same idiosyncratic procedure for each.

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

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.

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.
