If you have a problem with it, tell us why.

I won’t bash Mint, because I think Mint Cinnamon is great (if a little ugly out of the box).

For the past 3-4 years, though, I’ve been using Fedora and I’ve been very impressed. Almost as cutting edge as Arch, yet it’s well-tested and in my experience rock-solid stable.

The market can remain irrational for far longer than you can remain solvent

Although it’s ambiguous how much of this is due to AI data centres and how much is the natural ramp-down of DDR4 production.

DDR3 also increased substantially in price a few years after DDR4 became available.

Nice addition!

Some extensions have a verified/recommended by Mozilla seal of approval, so these extensions would be checked by a human to see that they comply.

Obviously they can’t check every update of every extension in existence, but even just the above is an improvement and certainly not useless.

I don’t think this could be enforced by the API without also seriously limiting what extensions can do, which people would go crazy about if they did.

No, but Amazon’s are very often the cheapest by far, easiest to find used (since more are sold in the first place). On Prime days they’re often very cheap.

I imagine most of the profit comes from buying/renting the books.

There was a lot of BS advertising not long ago about it being a web browser “for gamers”, whatever that means.

Open source is the exception, and it’s important to note that.

Now you may be thinking “well duh”, but I’ve seen plenty of people, even fairly techy people, refuse to use good FOSS software because they think they’re being monetised somehow and that because there’s no ads, it must be from secret data theft.

There are a number of sources for it. I’d have thought you’ve seen them since you’re posting this nonsense

But sure, here is one.

Why are you fine with holocaust denial and genocide? Do you also deny the Holocaust?

What a disgusting little bigot. I hate racists.

Odd to use the American spelling of criticising on a UK community.

Also, what the fuck do you mean for criticising Israel? That’s not what happened at all here.

The junior doctor, who has also claimed the Holocaust was “a fabricated victim narrative”, escaped suspension. However, the outcome prompted Wes Streeting, the Health Secretary, to declare he had “no confidence in our regulation system”.

On July 30, Dr Aladwan claimed that the Royal Free Hospital in north London, which serves a large Jewish community, was a “Jewish supremacy cesspit”. She has also said she would “never condemn the 7th of October” and repeatedly claimed the number of “proven rapes on Oct 7 is zero”.

A UN report has found that Hamas attackers raped and gang-raped civilians at the Nova music festival, used rape and “sexualised torture” against hostages in the Gaza Strip, and raped women’s corpses.

This shit is antisemitism. Let’s not make excuses. This is not criticism of the Jewish state (which is a fair and rational thing to do, given their actions). This is bigotry and holocaust denial. Plain and simple.

If you were born into a Jewish family, would you feel safe if this person was your doctor? I sure as fuck wouldn’t.

Translation: influencers who wont say a bad thing about the product

They didn’t even use an Xbox controller, they cheaped out and used an ancient Logitech clone

I dunno.

Multiple people in my friend group are aware of the issues with big tech companies.

But the second you bring up FOSS with them, or Linux gets mentioned, they either disengage completely or get angry. One of these people heads an IT department.

I don’t know why they react that way. The weird part is, they’ll happily use FOSS software like VLC or something Minecraft launcher. The second you say it’s FOSS they actually seem less into the software, not more.

Some do, yeah. But nowhere near the amount of people who will happily go along with Farage.

Adding an optional extra search engine isn’t the end of the world.

They also have Google and Bing, which aren’t nice either, yet nobody was doing this performative outrage over optional search engine inclusions before.

Oh he knows. But this lets him feel edgy and different

There are plenty of these, yes. But there are also plenty of consumer-grade GPUs being used for it too.

Firefox adding another search engine choice isn’t really headline news to me but cool I guess, especially if it’s another option that’s not Google?

I’ll continue using something else, though.

It’s staggering how we as a country roll our eyes at and mock MAGA, while falling for the exact same thing hook, line, and sinker.
