  They’ve been out of good ideas for years, not sure why they’d start panicking this far into the mediocrity

  excuse me what the fuck

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Now you’ve done it.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  New Markiplier dropped

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bazinga⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If you are, I’m having a sympathy stroke

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Fennec. I’ve also used Mull before now. Both are pretty decent drop in replacements for Firefox

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Well fingers crossed for me then as I don’t really want to spend the time to migrate again!

  I wonder if I can run a resource-constrained instance of this on esxi… something to look into this weekend, thank you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t had many bugs but I’m primarily using it on a MacBook, so maybe it’s more stable than on Linux? Though that in itself would also be a bother as I have a Linux desktop that I want to install on, so I’ll be looking out for these issues when I do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It sounded like the easiest migration from FF, and I tried it first out of the options I had lined up to consider (inc. LibreWolf). I expect LW is great too, but I’m time poor and until Floorp gives me a reason to switch, I’ll stick with it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It sounded on base value like the least effort when switching from Firefox. It basically came down to Floorp and LW. I tried the former first and didn’t see a need to continue looking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No but I like Floorp and I like eye candy, so I certainly will be!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I switched from Firefox to Floorp and haven’t looked back. Less bloated, same features, haven’t found an extension that isn’t compatible yet.

  Same with Fennec on Android.

  This article is pretty poor overall. Why recommend Arc, a browser that requires a user account to even open a webpage, and which the author himself said will probably be disappearing in the near future as part of their own product strategy?

  Lame clickbait aimed at nobody.

  Exactly. This is Mario’s PoV as he runs towards the princess.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Facial Recognition Company Clearview Attempted to Buy Social Security Numbers and Mugshots for its Database⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like they got away with it the first time, hardly surprising they’re doing more of the same if there are virtually no repercussions

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Majority of AI Researchers Say Tech Industry Is Pouring Billions Into a Dead End⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  COs are corporate politicians, media trained to only say things which are completely unrevealing and lacking of any substance.

  This is by design so that sensitive information is centrally controlled, leaks are difficult, and sudden changes in direction cause the minimum amount of whiplash to ICs as possible.

  I have the same reaction as you, but the system is working as intended. Better to just shut it out and use the time to think about that issue you’re having on a personal cat project or what toy to buy for your cat’s birthday.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you do this Technically?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t. You just say you do so the more docile members of your population don’t notice when you start pushing untagged AI-generated propaganda

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Brother Says It Was Falsely Accused Of Bricking Printers That Use Cheaper Third-Party Ink Cartridges⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m glad to hear this because I read the other article on the day my Epson decided to suddenly take umbrage with my third party cart after using it without issue for 2 years.

  As there is no other viable alternative for a relatively-no-nonsense printer on the market than Brother’s offerings.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Least terrible domain registrars⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can only speak from personal experience but for me they jacked up the price significantly after year one and then sent my domain straight to auction after I decided not to pay. I respect that there are reseller-focused providers out there but they aren’t for me.

  On the other hand, I’ve had nothing but quality service from namecheap for the best part of a decade.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Socially self-hosting source code with Tangled on Bluesky.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re self-hosting Tangled on their server. The BlueSky part only relates to the protocol used for communication between nodes. Definitely a confusing title though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Least terrible domain registrars⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Namecheap. Avoid Dynadot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day One alternative? (FOSS preferred)⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m using memos in a docker container.

  I like it because it has few features but they all work well. It’s great for taking quick notes or writing whole journal entries.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MagicX Hope To Pioneer DS Emulation With The Zero 40⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting. On one hand the 2DS wasn’t terribly well received. On the other hand, making the screen full size instead of unnecessarily adding chrome to divide them might be exactly the design change the 2DS needed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What was your favorite shareware game?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Such a gem… Oh go on then, I will revive my dosbox and play it all evening. You’ve twisted my arm :-P

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What was your favorite shareware game?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold

  My first FPS and an excellent one. Sooo many hidden rooms and insane enemies.

  Apogee was on fire during that whole era

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla is already revising its new Firefox terms to clarify how it handles user data⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Too late, I switched to Floorp.

  Because of privacy stuff? No. Because of repeated drama? Yes.

  I don’t have time for this stuff. I don’t have time to track every minute twist of the knife that Google’s funding drives Mozilla to embark on.

  I’m bored of using software and watching it go through “death by a thousand minor dramas”

  So now I use a web browser that has a name so stupid I don’t even recommend it to other people. Brilliant.
