  • The opposite of pro-AI isn’t anti-AI. It’s non-AI.

    You've lost your damn mind

  • Can't disagree that I'd rather the time be spent elsewhere, but firefox needs to be a big tent that isn't only targeted to tech savvy or anti AI people. I'll also admit I turned off smart tab group in about:config as soon as I saw it, but rather than "pestering" it was just a button in the tab group UI? I don't even know how to do link previews so it definitely never pestered me there. Local language translation is actively useful and far more desirable that using remote services.

    Another point about pulling time away from other development... The same time period these were implemented is also when they finally started doing things people definitely like such as tab groups and vertical tabs so it sure doesn't seem like they're too tight in resources.

    Tldr; firefox is for everyone and being mad that they implemented features you don't use is entitled bullshit

  • No idea why you'd think that....

  • Broken record 2 chiming in. None of these features do anything unless you use them so they effectively are opt-in. Turning off the settings gets rid of the UI elements that are how you'd use them, which is excellent.

    Additionally, a setting to automatically disable future features is a very strong acknowledgement of and empowerment for strongly anti-AI users.

    Up until now I have agreed with the crowd upset at how FF as handled AI features, but at this point you are just upset because you want to be.

  • EA is hiring a Senior Anti-Cheat Engineer to lead development of a native ARM64 driver for their Javelin kernel anti-cheat system and start laying groundwork for Linux/Proton support

  • People don’t already know (check the thread you’re in)

    If you can say that about one thing you can say it about anything, including your first comment I replied to, which heavily implied valve is to credit for everything even though a large share of the work over the years has been done by passionate people for no compensation.

    1. Valve is doing something wrong, and/or 3) They are somehow at fault for something, like stolen valor or not giving credit where credit is due.

    Nope, was only adding a little context, because though you claim everyone viewing this thread would already know, I'm sure you're incorrect.

  • And this comment is why I feel I have to say it. Credit where credit is due, but being this bristly over someone pointing out that the contributions of the open source community aren't the work of valve and valve alone is ridiculous

  • Valve is turning the entire ARM ecosystem on its end by building out an entire suite of tools to make an emulation layer

    A bit pedantic but I think it's worth noting that valve is only funding things that already exist and integrating them into their ecosystem rather than creating them from scratch

  • There is a fundamental difference this post is pretending doesn't exist.

    Trusting the abstractions of compilers and fundamental widely used libraries is not a problem because they are deterministic and battle tested.

    LLMs do not add a layer of abstraction. They produce code at the existing layer of abstraction.

  • Steam hardware survey for February 2026. What happened? Why did it lose such a big percentage?
