  This is hilarious.

  Nonetheless, the move forces the manufacturing of routers to be moved to the U.S. rapidly, particularly since it’s not clear that any consumer routers are currently made in the U.S.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Split View in Firefox: Two tabs side by side, right where you need them | The Mozilla Blog⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless you are using a tiling window manager it is not same thing. You have to spend time dragging and resizing the two windows with your mouse in order to put them the way you want. And while it may not sound like a lot if you are doing it pretty often it adds up.

  If on the other hand you can open a link in split view with the current tab just as effortlessly as middle clicking to open on a new tab, I can see myself doing it all the time. This is one of the reasons I was testing out the Zen browser recently, which is a Firefox fork that has the feature.

  I know it’s not using them without my input, what I’m saying is that there should be a local option.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla announces switch to disable all Firefox AI features⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And even if you enable it, it should work with local LLMs. And at least from the article it doesn’t appear to be the case.

  I don’t, my employer does though. Assisting with certain coding tasks is pretty much the only thing it’s good about it.

  At least we can still buy HDDs. Oh, wait…

  Yeah, good at sucking!

  I really wish I could buy big ass dumb monitor at the cost of a similar size smart tv.

  Our back-end to your rear-end.

  That’s amazing! I have the same combination in my luggage!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Being too nice online is a dead giveaway for AI bots, study suggests⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I like how it has a frown on the link preview and when you open the article it has a smile.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nexperia chip exports resuming: German auto supplier⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That means RAM prices will come back down to logical levers, right? …right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how do you explain selfhosting to the non-techies in your life?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you remember that time Netflix removed [insert series title]? I basically have my own private version of Netflix. That way nobody can take my favorite series away from me without warning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mini pc for home server?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I built a home server based on an Intel N100 motherboard a while ago. I’ve put proxmox on it and run my Home Assistant installation, Nextcloud, several other stuff and even my router as an OpenWRT VM!

  I chose to go the N100 motherboard route mainly due to the flexibility it offers. But you can just buy a N100 based NUC and you get effectively the same performance and incredible low power consumption.

  You are not blocking just Chrome though. You are also blocking Vanadium on GrapheneOS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Smart products themselves are not the issue. The issue is making everything cloud based. The solution is companies designing their products so they can be controlled over the network.

  It’s a fucking bed! It doesn’t need a persistent connection to some server. The problem is that they also want to mine and sell your data.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There is special category for Internet of Shit devices, that not only are cloud based but also require a persistent connection to a server to even execute basic functions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xubuntu website hijacked to serve malware⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  To be fair, I doubt that someone who even knows how to verify a hash when would see an exe instead of an iso would think that this looks fine.
