kome··on Traces Of Humanity
???

wild assumption. god forbid someone look for some humanity in this world.

kome··on RFK Jr. plans to curb antidepressants, which he falsely compares to heroin
i know this is controversial in highly medicalized societies, but this is a good plan overall.

we still don't know why and how antidepressants work. we know they work, but we don't know why. and hell, to be honest, we still have a poor grasp of how depression works.

a priority is tho to limit reliance of the populace on "moms' little helpers", that might give dependency, and financial drain. and finding a humanist way to deal with depressions and its symptoms.

i feel american society is not ready for it, popping pills is way easier, but it is important to start somewhere.

kome··on GameStop makes $55.5B takeover offer for eBay
ebay is still "old internet", and genuinely useful and well built. enshittification is incoming...
kome··on Spotify adds 'Verified' badges to distinguish human artists from AI
the slop existed before AI and in every era (from the beatles to britney spears), and for some people, it's all they need. why demonize AI-generated music?
kome··on Picasso’s Guernica (Gigapixel)
guys that work for military tech companies, or somehow involved in military anything: zoom in on the horse's mouth. zoom in on the eyes of the person on fire.
kome··on FBI used iPhone notification data to retrieve deleted Signal messages
signal is security theater, and a very bad user experience
kome··on FBI used iPhone notification data to retrieve deleted Signal messages
smartphones in general runs against the “I bought my device, I should control how it behaves” line of thinking
kome··on Veracrypt project update
yeah, it just works
kome··on 21,864 Yugoslavian .yu domains
fully agree. also Yugoslavia lives on, in our heart :,)
kome··on Opera: Rewind The Web to 1996 (Opera at 30)
Opera 12 was so good, so fast, on ANY hardware, so innovative, so quirky. When Opera became Chrome-based, I moved to Firefox. I just don’t want Google spyware on my computer.
kome··on Palestinian boy, 12, describes how Israeli forces killed his family in car
please...
kome··on Iranians describe scenes of catastrophe after Tehran's oil depots bombed
in what Europe are you living sorry? The only one outspoken against the war have been the Spanish. UK, Italy and Germany are on it - offering logistical support and everything the US needs.
kome··on Grammarly is offering ‘expert’ AI reviews from famous dead and living writers
yes i hate that. they still have the chutzpah of keeping doing it. and i am sure it's illegal in multiple legislation. because they are not writing articles where you can cite people, they are selling a product.
kome··on Iranians describe scenes of catastrophe after Tehran's oil depots bombed
probably your provider is censoring it. it's working here.
kome··on Iranians describe scenes of catastrophe after Tehran's oil depots bombed
usa + israel = imperialism + genocide

this should seriously stop. and i am very sad Europeans are spineless and following the US in another insane middle-east war. wasn't afghanistan and iraq enough?

kome··on Grammarly is offering ‘expert’ AI reviews from famous dead and living writers
that's so scummy. why they even needs "names"? it's a rhetorical question...
kome··on The United States and Israel have launched a major attack on Iran
shameful for the west, and a tragedy. leave iran alone. defending the mullahs wasn't exactly on my bingo card, but here we are...

please, can somebody in the US or Israel have an "are we the baddies" epiphany?

kome··on Unsung heroes: Flickr's URLs scheme
you are confused :) you are thinking about del.icio.us

flickr is alive and well

kome··on Italy Railways Sabotaged
> The obvious candidate is Russia

wild, and probably incorrect, assumption. as any moderately educated italian know, it’s not like italy lacks groups that push similar events on a semi-routine basis, perhaps even inspired by the “délégation inattendue” of french anarchists who carried out a comparable action in France around the olympics.

kome··on Italy Railways Sabotaged
yeah, but no credible connection has been revealed or proven. there might well be a teapot orbiting the Moon, but without evidence it’s just random speculation
kome··on Italy Railways Sabotaged
article about russia???
kome··on Italy Railways Sabotaged
what? they were local anarchist. what the hell are you saying?
kome··on Show HN: We Built the 1. EU-Sovereignty Audit for Websites
hmm... it really miss a lot of infrastructure.

take my website for example mrtno.com - it's hosted in europe, ok. but under what legislation the domain register is based? and where is the dns server?

those a crucial information. and they are missing.

kome··on Ask HN: How can we solve the loneliness epidemic?
people are so fucked up by consumerism that they expect to be just consumers also in their sociality... like they expect that social relations to be like commodities.

in consumer societies people flee real freedom's anxiety by conforming to market ways, treating connections as consumption not production. lasting bonds need effort patience vulnerability, all anti-consumer virtues.

Fromm said that in market societies love and relations follow the commodity and labor market exchange pattern. they want low-effort replaceable humans. So they became low-effort replaceable humans.

kome··on 90M people. 118 hours of silence. One nation erased from the internet
absolutely, the capacity of the US and their useless european minions to side with evil while cloaking geopolitical violence in the language of human rights is not hypocrisy by accident but policy by design, activated selectively when victims are convenient and ignored when perpetrators are allies. i am very sad for iranian protesters, but the west does not need to instrumentalize their suffering.
kome··on The Vietnam government has banned rooted phones from using any banking app
we should save the idea of general computing. fuck cell phones.
kome··on Web development is fun again
please, developers are making terrible slop way before AI, look at the javascript infested frameworks in use on the web. they make NO sense. they are not making things simpler
kome··on Growing up in “404 Not Found”: China's nuclear city in the Gobi Desert
i absolutely loved the story, thank you for sharing!

...and the absolutely unhinged reaction of many commenters to AI use is rich in sociological insight. i have the impression that native english speakers feel somehow threatened... but in general, it's rich for the HN crowd huffing and puffing about AI translation after having turned the world in the most inhuman technology mediated thing, way before AI...

kome··on Clair Obscur having its Indie Game Game Of The Year award stripped due to AI use
I agree, computer graphics and art were sloppified, copied and corporate way before AI, so pulling a casablanca "I'm shocked, shocked to find that AI is going on in here!" is just hypocritical and quite annoying.
