I have no sympathy for GAFAM, nor for Mozilla.

Why don't you BTW?

never give a corporation your labour for free.

People should have known this from the beginning.

Some of us have been living without an Amazon account since 2007 and we're still alive. Go figure.

It's a shame that nowadays a lot of potentially interesting subjects come mostly as crappy and time consuming video format. Did people unlearn how to read?

Hopefully, yes.

Hopefully... So we won't have this guy mentioned 10 times per day everywhere.

And I have moved my mastodon account to an instance who actively defederated Threads. I'm not interested in interacting with anyone on that network.

And I'm fucking sick of the "content relevant for me" thing. I interact with people asking/giving help, discussing and so on. Mindlessly consuming "content" is simply a disease.

Switch to Linux!

As a Linux user myself, let me tell you that telling people what they should/must do this is how you make people plainly ignore you and think you're just an annoying person.

People will keep using what works for them, be it Windows/Linux/MacOS even if with minor inconveniences. Same goes for browsers/services/etc...

Wikipedia is the only piece of the internet I would save from apocalipse. Like, seriously.

Me. I own both wired and wireless earphones and I want to be able to use both.

As a rule of thumb, after quite a mediocre experience regarding more than a couple of items, I have learned to never buy Samsung, if an alternative exists.

From what I can understand from the thread, they aren't deliberatly crippling FF.

Downvote me to hell if you want, but I honestly believe that GOG, as one of the few non-drm'ed game sellers, is actually a good place where to spend your money.

Right. Maybe not metaphorically.

I'm almost 50 and I surely know about modern tech and FOSS. Age is not the problem here. Ignorance is.

Let's hope these don't carry Linux ISOs, which would be a very problematic drug to deal with.

Actually, I think I have misread it. My bad. I'm the one running out of caffeine, it seems.

I'd metaphorically masturbate to that happening.

I understand that. Unfortunately, though, one has to expect always the worst from Corps, no matter how "good" they appear to be at the beginning.

The shitty forced "stories" did me question seriously this once wonderful app. If I'd want to look at crappy TikTok-like shorts from other people, I'd be on TikTok.

I didn't t read the article (of course), but I hope flying cars aren't anywhere near to be available to consumers. Many drivers are barely able to drive correctly withouth killing themselves (and/or anybody else) on a 1D path drawn on a 2D surface. IMHO, giving anyone the possibility to "drive" in a 3D space is a recipe for disaster.

It's funny how corporate equates lack of growth with losses. Bastards.

First good news from Mozilla since at least a couple of years.

Or... cats!

Yes, please!

I don't think that access to your personal data/email/files being dependent on a battery-powered electronic device is a great idea, to be honest.

If only new batteries were easily swappable...

I'll write that down in my to-do list.

Yeah, that's an offer a man can't refuse.

The data collection of DDG only regarded their browser, not the search engine.

True... It amazes me when people become so entitled online, especially in the FOSS community. It looks like they think devs owe them something.

They will become stupid by tirelessly watching stupid people doing stupid things on TikTok/YouTube.

It's free just because someone else pays for you (I'm one of these "someone"s, I own one of the instances at searx. space). Unless you host you own instance at your own expenses.

The anti-Brave idiocy/hysteria is getting out of hand on the Fedi. And everybody knows it's mostly virtue signaling anyway.

Arch. Minimal, fast, rolling and it doesn't break. Plus, the AUR and the Wiki are unvaluable.

Had been on: RedHat (199something), Mandrake, Slackware, Ubuntu and Debian before.
