- Comment on Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors 1 month ago:
There’s a lot of problems with Wikipedia, but in my years editing there (I’m extended protected rank), I’ve come to terms that it’s about as good as it can be.
In all but one edit war, the better sourced team came out on top. Source quality discussion is also quite good. There’s a problem with from positive/negative tone in articles, and sometimes articles get away with bad sourcing before someone can correct it, but this is about as good as any information hub can get.

- Comment on The demise of Flash didn't bring any big HTML5/JS equivalent for watching animations; fast internet and better video compression made those types of animations become raster videos as well 2 months ago:
Did it really though? Ruffle is a reimplantation of Flash in Rust, and is available as a browser extension. Anything short of malicious swf files will play. So it seems that any “security issues” were clearly mitigatable.

But the Dems don’t (checks notes…) celebrate deporting illegal immigrants! I’m sure the people getting bombed in the middle east know that’s where the line is drawn! They think I’m a good guy for supporting Democrats, right???

What’s worse, bombing the middle east, or calling the Democrats out for bombing the middle east?

Yup, we have no data to suggest there isn’t one darn billionaire trying to make China look good by installing megawatts worth of solar panels.

It’s looking at where the solar panels were installed. So it could be the government or private businesses, but they’re being installed in China

I read most this article and don’t see how any of it is false or misinformation. Literally the first word in the page is “alleged”, and it’s full of arguments with linked citations from both sides
