Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
@Decoy321 @TheJims It was definitely a real controversy for months a while back. He won and his opponent iirc accused him of having a vib to help him cheat.
General concensus is that it's unlikely. The sheet complexity of communicating movements via vib patterns alone makes it a stretch.
Plus... ya know: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWCDc4I0cSQ
Wasn't the accusation that he had a device in his shoe, and the buttplug thing was just a joke that got out of hand?
@Pietson @TheJims @Decoy321 that wasn't what I heard but I didn't look too too far into it. I read a few of the light articles that discussed the viability of the butt plug cheat device, but aside from that I didn't really go back to the source or anything.
Why do your comments tag anyone remotely involved in this?
Because that's how Mastodon works.
Ah ok, weird. Thanks!
@KidsTryThisAtHome direct replies include anyone in the thread chain by default. It's like Twitter in that way.
Very interesting, thanks!
