2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.

If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.

The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
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.
I mean yikes. When I had to reschedule a meeting with a vendor because of an outage (that wasn't related to them) they sent me a $100 gift card so I could buy myself dinner. It was very sweet of them at a time where I was pretty stressed out by the fire I was putting out.
What can you even buy for ten dollars anymore?
A banana?
More like $15 these days, GOB
$10 on Uber Eats? After fees and delivery, maybe a single taquito from 7/11.
…Maybe…
The best part is that some people said the vouchers had been canceled.
On Wednesday, some of the people who posted about the gift card said that when they went to redeem the offer, they got an error message saying the voucher had been canceled. When TechCrunch checked the voucher, the Uber Eats page provided an error message that said the gift card “has been canceled by the issuing party and is no longer valid.”
Our VAR responded to the CS rep basically saying:
And just how so might I ask we use this effectively when we had a team of 6 people working on this? Cut a bigmac 6 ways, 2 oz of soda and 12 fries per person?
Had to check the community - I thought this was NotTheOnion
Well now it's there too!
Dear IT departments & corporate billing, please send an invoice of business lost & IT overtime costs to Crowdstrike. $10? STFU
Same amount they'd get as a check once the class action suit gets settled.
You cocksuckers nuked my laptop, where’s my goddamn gift card?
