  • Talk about a gross mischaracterization of what is actually said in that blog post. You made it seem like Firefox is getting rid of ad blocking which is far from the truth of what that post says. It doesn't even mention ad blocking. Maybe don't editorialize a post and present it as fact.

  • Source?

  • I mean, machine learning and AI does have benefits especially in research in the medical field. The consumer AI products are just stupid though.

  • But they also seemingly worship grown men like Trump and Musk who have nothing better to do than complain about how they've been wrong on Twitter and Truth Social. Like seriously, if I had the amount of money that Elon does, you'd never hear from me because I'd be busy doing cool shit and not posting on Twitter. Like how lonely is his life?

  • Yeah but then you gotta change it every 30 days and it can't use any of your last 24 passwords so you can't even cycle through 10 numbers in one spot or even two spots. So you'd have to do like "p0s0w0rd" and then do "p1s0w0rd" and so forth.

  • Whoops. Forgot a restriction, can't use repeating characters either so that one doesn't work either.

  • My current employer has the dumbest restrictions for passwords to our core system. It is a large regional bank. Our core system must have a password that is either 7 or 8 characters long (nothing shorter or longer). It cannot have any vowels or special characters. It cannot have any capital letters. It cannot have two numbers in a row.

  • Yeah, I'm not saying it's not a good practice, but I just don't see them doing it.

  • You don’t want crypto, don’t use it.

    I use Brave as my Chrome based browser when not using Floorp but there were other issues with Brave in the past like injecting their affiliate links unbeknownst to users so they could make money off them. They have reverted that decision but that they thought it was acceptable in the first place leaves some to question, rightly, what other shenanigans they might pull. They've also had issues with paying out Creators BAT tokens.

  • Now they will be forced to look at ads.

    I'm pretty sure they would've been seeing ads anyways. I doubt that school IT administrators had uBlock Origins as an extension that was being installed and I really doubt they didn't have the chromebooks locked down so students could install whatever extensions they wanted.

  • Yeah, I do the same with my mortgage. Statements emailed to me monthly so I never need to log in to get them (annual escrow statement as well). Payments made via my normal bank's Bill Pay feature. No reason to ever log in to my mortgage holder's website/app.

  • Clean water is for pussies.

    Well when you only consume monster energy drinks and miller lite, why would you need water?

  • You're telling me the part that doesn't care about feeding kids, universal health care, clean water, and clean air but is pro gun, pro war, and pro forced birth isn't Pro Life? SHOCKED!

  • I've completely lost faith in places like Amazon. Used to be able to find decent stuff there but unless you're looking for a specific brand/item, it's all crap. Wanted to find some relatively decent priced workout shorts with a compression liner built in. There's so many shitty brands that all have the same damn images for the shorts. They're all just going to be drop shipped BS from China with no one actually standing behind the product. I'm back to B&M stores now like Dick's and their DSG line is actually reasonably priced and good quality.

  • Oh they already are. But if they start making porn subs like gonewild as paid services, those users are going to push the limits of whats allowed in other subs to try and just get people to stumble into their profile.

  • I can't even imagine the creators in those subreddits would be thrilled since so many of them seemingly use those subs as a free advertising spot for their onlyfans. More of them are trying to be creative with overtly sexual questions in askreddit and people just stumbling in to their profile.

  • I've tried but for some reason, I can never get them set up correctly and I'm not technologically illiterate. Its been a while since I tried it though since Floorp just works.

  • The biggest pro for me is the vertical tabs. It's got the same vertical tabs that Edge has which are great. I only use Edge at work but it's great especially when you have a web based production environment like nCino that you work in all day and have dozens of tabs open. You can group them up nicely and keep yourself organized. Floorp is based off of Firefox ESR so it's on an older build (but up to date security). The current build is based off FF 115 while FF is on 129 now.

  • I dunno… I mean, what are your expectations?

    Honestly, some sites just don't want to work properly. Firefox is my main browser. For some reason, Dicks Sporting Goods has like a 50% success rate on whether the page wants to load correctly. I fire up Brave when I'm looking at their website.
