Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Indeed. This still doesn't confirm that he's dead, just that he's injured.
Okay? OKAY?! OKAY MY FOOT!
Oh wait, no. Sorry. His foot.
Some rabbit’s gonna have the coolest keychain ever.
And 100 years later... thanks for continuing to defile a sacred mountain with corpses and bags of human shit for no reason other than bragging rights, you rich fucks.
They haul the shit back out now.
Only at lower elevations, from what I understand. Once you get into the death zone, it's a lot harder.
At that point, your ass is so clenched that the shit isn’t a problem.
Finders keepers.
I mean there are a lot of dead bodies on Everest. Why is this still news?
There is some history and controversy surrounding their fatal climb that makes it more interesting than the other cadavers. Caveat: Not an expert on this. Irvine and Mallory made early attempts at being the first to summit Everest. There is speculation that on their last climb, they summited before dying on their way down and had beat Edmund Hillary who is credited with being first
stumbled on the foot
I see what you did there.
so you find... a boot. With a sock and a foot inside it.
AND YOU PlAY WITH THE FOOT?
weirdos.
Where does it say they played with it?
I mean they took the foot off the boot
You put your feet on your boots? Weird, I put my boots on my feet. 🤔😂
Yes but if you think if there's only a foot and not the rest, you're actually taking the foot off the boot, like a parcel
Oh I know, I was just being a pedantic shit, mostly because linguistically we always say we put clothing on even if we're on the clothing.
I'm pretty sure that when you find a 100 year old foot on a mountain, and you're a national geographic documentarian, you probably have to investigate it.
