"I'm a member of Ohio's Haitian community. The misinformation is hurting our kids"
I'm really getting much more of a chuckle from the puzzles thrown up by trying to use a #VintagePC on a modern network than I ever expected!
Modern #puTTY binaries won't run on #WindowsNT4; ancient binaries from January 2000 are available and will run, but can't connect to a modern #SSH server. Most effective for file transfer is a combination of #telnet specially installed on my daily driver #Linux machine and python3 -m http.server
.
Netscape 4.7 works nicely with the Python HTTP server, and the telnet client that comes with Windows NT4 supports VT100 so on opening a shell on my Linux machine, I find the w3m
command line web browser is just about usable - good enough to download ancient binaries and installers onto the Linux machine that can be served via Python's HTTP server.
I've also given #wrp, the Web Rendering Proxy, a spin; it's surprisingly effective. Runs on a Linux machine on the network and serves pages as GIFs with clickable image maps.
Wikipedia has been hit with several lawsuits in recent years for misrepresentation. In India, a major media outlet sued the site for misinformation in an article.
The same processes are happening in the US and Europe: Wikipedia agreed to remove misinformation from its materials only under the influence of the court.
Experts note that dissatisfaction with the editorial policies of Wikipedia is growing around the world.
