We need a bot for this. Synopsis should be added to the tldr-bot or something.

I don't think so. That whole website is premised on an elementary logical fallacy. Just because a news source is left- or right-leaning doesn't make it inherently less trustworthy than a "centrist" one, in fact all you've done is introduce your own untrustworthy ideological bias into the judgement criteria by proactively dismissing anyone who doesn't align with your definition of centrism.

it's just a test of how much the position agrees with the people running the website haha

there's no such thing as "bias-free" propaganda, and propaganda isn't inherently subversive

why? read the article, and if you can't tell the bias that's on you.

ya know, I’ve looked into it. one of the biggest problems with bots is that they have to be hosted from somewhere. that’s my first hiccup.

I’d LOVE to make this a bot, but I don’t know where I’d host it from.

You can get a cheap VPS with a couple cores and some RAM for less than $5.

can I run it from inside a docker container?

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The project has a dockerfile to create the Docker image with the required LAMP stack and python dependencies.

Oracle Free Tier - 4 CPU, 24 GB RAM.

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I’ve heard it’s very unreliable and people have had their VPS deleted without warning.

[-] TheButtonJustSpins@infosec.pub 3 points 1 year ago

Have backups. :)
