  Safari used to be khtml/Konqueror so … I’m not sure how we’re dividing actually.

  I mean, before DOGE ostensibly took over USDS I was aware of it funding open source projects through normal processes just because their continued improvement helped the government function. Making software good for government agencies was one of their mandates.

  If I had full faith in the current Mozilla project like I used to, I’d say they could just accept funding through the nonprofit in a similar setup and just do good things.

  My point is there are ways to make it work where there is funding without influence. Just corruption and capitalism are fighting against it.

  Great! Now not only can chrome eat all my system memory, it can use all my GPU memory at the same time! It’s genius!

  Yeah I’ve had foil bags with dessicant be damp too. In my experience, if you’re getting a deal on petg you probably need to dry it. That’s probably why you got the deal.

  I do too. I kinda miss Jenkins but a lot of the conveniences in GitLab’s CI are really nice and it’s better for 99% of use cases.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this just crappy Filament⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah seeing the original I suspected retraction settings since it was mostly in places with lots of retractions.and long paths even out and look smooth.

  This fixed the under extrusion which seems to confirm it’s a retraction problem but disabling it entirely you’ve got those oozing artifacts where moves happen.

  I’d suggest using a small value for your retraction and probably take the time to use teaching tech or ellis’ tunning guides to tune your retraction settings.

  Every other ci in existence you just write a command. Then if it doesn’t work you run the command on your machine and fix it.

  Actions are “magic” which means you have to fake the ci runner with tools and reverse engineer the action to run local debugging and if it failed you might not even fully know what was running with digging into the actions source.

  GitHub provides you the tools and their “easy” until they aren’t.

  It’s very Microsoft though. It feels like trying to write a Windows app and trying to get your random Net environment definition to line everything up and compile in VS then hoping the same thing happens when you deploy.

  Oh…I was interested until you said actions. What a terrible system for ci.

  Canada can just become the 51st state and solve that /s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla Introduces Firefox’s First-Ever Terms of Use⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Firefox main problem with profitability relevance. They need more people to get people to use their tools

  So I just have two questions.

  1. How does this get new users?
  2. How does this help retention?

  The only answer is it doesn’t and we don’t care because we’re going to cash out.

  I’m not running away, I’ll still open Firefox tomorrow like yesterday because the browser landscape is terrible and the shadow of what Firefox was is still good.

  But I’m looking for the disruptor because as questionable as a lot of the new smaller browsers are, there are people out there trying and it’s going to happen.

  Cool.

  And the best part is, if I set it to never I get the websites I was actually looking for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Firefox deletes promise to never sell personal data, asks users not to panic⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Between the fact I’ve been using a date picker for ages in Firefox, the fact dates and times are hard, and the title of the issue that’s clearly a zombie issue. I’m surprised they were able to close it at all.

  I mean yes but also credited as the inspiration to start YouTube so also the same as it ever was?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung, Google take on Dolby Atmos with new 'Eclipsa Audio'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s funny because it’s true.

  But also av1 is open and widely available and based on Google’s vp9 so… Maybe it will work out.
