  • I don't think you understand what imperialist means.

    NATO is a pact you optionally join.

  • NATO is an extremely good thing, it's a cooperative defence pact amongst members who don't wish to be invaded. It's been very successful.

    There's a reason more countries are seeking to join it.

  • I've been using it since 2016 and the only issue I've had (which has been fixed for a while now) was screen sharing in Discord.

    It's true that there are a couple of things missing or unstandardised as of now, but there's also plenty missing from X11, so it's swings and roundabouts.

  • There aren't many distros that don't have it by default.

    Debian, a distro literally memed about for moving slowly, has defaulted to Wayland since 2019.

  • The alt-text tagging is pretty amazing according to my sister (blind), too.

  • Good thing it's open source and we'll immediately see that they aren't doing the thing you're claiming.

  • No, they won't be used at all, and will be hidden from view, if turned off.

  • Alt-text generation for screen readers (amazing feature)

    Private, offline translation (amazing feature)

    Chatbot sidebar (I have very little use for it, but some may like it)

    All of these are opt-in.

  • That stuff is commonly included in the AI umbrella.

  • Does anyone even talk about what the “AI features” are?

    The one I use the most is their offline translation. I don't have to send my data to Google Translate.

    My sister (blind) uses the new screen reader stuff a lot.

    Mozilla is certainly adding good AI features, but the chatbot integration isn't something I have much use for.

  • Not implementing any AI is stupid.

    I for one appreciate having offline, private language translation. Sending it to a Google Translate server is a privacy nightmare.

    My sister appreciates the better screen-reader functionality.

    Plenty of people do want AI features.

  • Huh?

    Micron is one of the big three DRAM producers.

    And the South Koreans aren't lowering production, unless you mean DRAM specifically in favour of HBM for the datacentre/AI market (which is what they are doing), that would be crazy given the level of demand, it'd just let competitors take the market. Samsung and SK Hynix are expanding fabs, but they're not expected to be operational until 2027.

    Blatant misinformation being upvoted lol
