Lol- maybe news orgs can pay a small fee to be listed to support the site - which could then be ad free, or just whoever covers the story gets pushed onto the stack (maybe bad ones can be flagged and moderator removed), or just run it like

"dotnet new -t web" is my favorite lazy command I didn't see mentioned in the article (I think you need to install the cli .net core thing).

What is the boundary between what we consider "fake news" and news with a tiny kernel of truth somewhere in it (in this story it sounds like a semi-related laptop was infected with some malware) that is sensationalized to claim so

I used it exclusively for navigation on a windows 8 phone (and it was reliable and a good experience), but it seems they didn't release a windows 10 mobile version when I upgraded.
