AI assistance does not eliminate human authorship. A comment may be drafted or refined with tools but still reflect the user’s own ideas and judgment. Prohibiting any AI assistance would be difficult to enforce and would likely exclude normal writing aids that many people already use. The more relevant standard is whether the commenter stands behind the content and participates in the discussion.

You must follow the law in your home country. Your refusal to do so constitutes Treason. Obey the law.

If you can code practically anything with Claude Code (or equivalents), what types of web businesses will continue to stay viable or profitable?

I guess BBC has never heard of Iran. They easily passed the 3.5%, so the government “reduced the percentage”. BBC, you are completely disconnected from reality.

Go to the army for five minutes and you’ll find 10 different ideas of products to create. Your failure is based on your limited and narrow perception, not the lack of ideas of things to create

New comment by surume in "Scientists debunk claims of seed oil health risks"

surume — Sun, 05 Oct 2025 06:13:30 +0000

Gotta protect those precious greasy canola seed dollars, right? Seriously, does anyone even believe this?? I'm guessing High Fructose Corn Syrup doesn't cause diabetes either... As soon as some health investigator has a look at one of their profitable products, a squad of "scientists" rush to the scene to officially deboink the myth that it gives you heart disease. What a joke. And a sad one at that.

surume — Wed, 07 May 2025 06:43:59 +0000

What type of proof would you like? An official statement by Pakistani militias that the government asked them to do it? We see similar tactics being used in Syria by Al-Jolani / Al-Sharaa to wipe out the Alawaites (20-50,000 executed) with the same being planned for the Druze. That way the government can say "it wasn't us", although of course, they didn't prevent it.

How about you just let the User decide how much they want their a$$ kissed. Why do you have to control everything? Just provide a few modes of communication and let the User decide. Freedom to the User!!

This makes no sense. CEO’s are inherently capitalist, but SF is a communist city, so her appeal is absurd on its face.

surume — Sat, 01 Mar 2025 07:52:14 +0000

Ukraine just lost the war. Europe has no weapons to give them. They will now have no money from the USA. Zelensky was stupid and he bit the hand that fed him. Now he must live in shame and watch his country be conquered by Russia. I think Putin will change the name of Ukraine after he wins. What do you think he will call that land?

New comment by surume in "Israel, Hamas reach ceasefire deal to end 15 months of war in Gaza"

surume — Thu, 16 Jan 2025 12:51:18 +0000

Hamas just changed the terms of the deal, demanding the release of hardened terrorists. The deal will now likely fall apart. They are a terrorist organization, and behave as such. This “deal” is just another avenue to wage psychological warfare, in their view. The war in Gaza will likely continue.

Firefox still crashes for me. Multiple computers and laptops, PC’s and Macs - it always crashes. I test it every few years and the crashes still occur. It makes it an unusable browser. Instead I use Brave.
