Why?
I know the knee jerk reasons of course.
However, GitHub is a fantastic ecosystem for an application to thrive. Contributions on other platforms are greatly reduced.
Then again, the actual Lemmy development is a bit of a mess.
Once it gains critical mass of engaged developers, that’s a good time to migrate off GitHub. Doing it earlier just slows the project down.
And your alternate options are what?
Why should we ditch Firefox now? Because they have moved slightly in the direction we dislike but are still light years ahead on privacy?
This is the tech version of single issue voting. All the nuance is lost and ignored, and it’s just a knee jerk after knee jerk.
Mozilla is doing this because funding is difficult, if you wanted a free and open web then you should have been donating to the foundation. To some degree we all should have. The majority of their funding comes from Google, when that gets cut they have to make huge changes to their organization or they will completely die.
That’s the reality we live in all those Mozilla engineers have to be paid money, they aren’t working for free. How do you expect a company to function without an income source?
Have you thought about this at all before making statements like those you have made?
Pretty sure it’s me ADHD that causes me to accumulate tabs like this…
I’ll have dozens and dozens of windows full of tabs.
I recently did a tab clean out before moving. And had tabs up from ideas or to do’s or items that interested me from 4+ years ago.
Every time I restart my computer or close Firefox I always restore my previous session and get all those tabs back.
Depression or ADHD?
A bit miserable this week. Got sick, and haven’t been able to sleep more than a few hours a night as a result, which is making it worse.
A misery snowball effect.
Hoping I can get a full night’s sleep soon 🤞
It’s absolutely mind boggling that the bar for election is “supports a free and fair election”, and we’ve reached that stage in such a short time.
The death spiral is a steep one.
That’s not how manipulation works…
You don’t know you are being manipulated, you do so willingly. And the folks who recognize it are beat down by the people who are unwittingly doing the AIs bidding…
The humans are the physical danger, the AI just extends it’s reach through humans via manipulation. All it takes is access to influence.
It doesn’t take much to make humans act against their self interests. Dumb humans make other dumb and even smart humans do it today at massive scales. For a superinteligence this is like taking candy from a baby.
The interactive map doesn’t seem to exist at that link for me 🤔
There’s a zip code search but it doesn’t appear to work I’ve tried a good dozen zip codes around me with no results unfortunately.
Jack… Fortnight? This hurts. RIP the original franchises.
Honestly?
Heat death of the universe.
Our biology is hardwired for tribalism.
That’s kinda the root is the problem though isn’t it?
It’s incredible useful to have hoards of intellectually challenged voters hanging off your every lie.
Probably because of the “you can’t be sexist against males” standpoint
You may want to stop using fabric softener if you do. This wears down your clothes, fast, socks included. You’ll find your things wear through much slower if you stop using it.
browsers themselves are easy to make
That’s … a patently false statement.
They are among the most complex, difficult, resource hungry pieces of software out there along with actual operating systems.
There’s a lot of open source browsers out there. Are you using them? Probably not
This is also essentially misinformation. I’m sure none of us have heard of Firefox before, or Chromium. Sure Chrome (closed source) is what most people use, but Firefox isn’t exactly some esoteric browser.
Honestly, will probably see some of this in my lifetime.
Unfortunately.
I’ve become accustomed to using blue, purple, red, green, pink, and black pens.
The colors really make my notes easier to visually scan. Especially if I’m trying to keep a topic on one page and end up filling in gaps with sideways notes or diagrams.
That’s not how that works…
The magnets aren’t being moved across conductors to induce currents.
That’s a whole other can of worms, and I’m gonna guess much more difficult to quantify and study due to physiological, psychological, and hormonal inconsistencies vs sociatal influences…
How are they just plain mean? Are you just trying to play the clickbait game?
Many of these are just normal faces with context, a chunk are pretty accurate stereotype and not insulting, and the rest could be considered mean.
Also from Oregon, with a bun as well 😂
Anticompetitive feature!
