Unfortunately I don’t think there’s much Mozilla can do other than cut costs with it seeming like the Google funding will be getting severely hampered.
They can’t get money from thin air.

You’re replying to a lemmy.ml user, they almost certainly think pulling out of NATO and allowing Putin to continue his genocide in Ukraine is a good thing.
It’s very normal to give businesses a short period to make arrangements/sell off stock.
They were never going to pass a law that banned them right from that second.
This is a good move. The damage that will continue to happen for the next 6 months or whatever is miniscule compared to the damage of just allowing it to continue indefinitely. Hopefully other countries follow suit.
Fair enough

In your comment where you equated them, then every single comment after.
He did say that.
Do you believe he suddenly changed his mind on an opinion he held and shouted to the world, 2 days after it became apparent he might lose his job over it?
If someone committed fraud, then went to court and said “your honour, I actually agree with you. Fraud is wrong. I came to that conclusion this morning.” would you believe them?
Quote what exactly I said that was either of those things.
It’s what all of your comments have been about. Don’t play dumb.
Support. Warranties. Replacement parts.
Typical nanny state
My house isn’t inside a school or a hospital, therefore I can’t even smoke in my own home. Absolutely raging.
E: Christ. Sad day when a sarcasm tag is clearly needed on a UK community. /s for the people who didn’t get it.
Disposable vapes will be banned in the UK starting in June 2025.
Based.
Moving to Europe where… there’s an even greater level of sanctions against Russia, and the population is more anti-Russia?
I mean sure, I’d like that, but it wouldn’t have the effect you want it to lmao
And no, maintainers for sanctioned Russian companies were removed from their positions (where they can push kernel changes with zero approval).
Now they have to wait for their changes to be approved like everybody else. Oh no the horror.
Doesn’t effect all Russians. Just 11 Russian maintainers that work for sanctioned Russian companies. Who can still contribute, they just can no longer make changes to the kernel with no approval/oversight.
I know people meme about “Zen 5%” (sidenote: genuinely a clever quip), but most of that is down to AMD massively reducing the power draw of the chips.
If you set it to the same power limits as Zen4, you can get large performance improvements.
Gamers have been saying for years that stuff is getting too power-hungry, but when steps were made to reverse this, they collectively lost their minds.
Seriously, what are they expecting, a 25% improvement in performance at half the power draw, while staying on a 5nm-family node?
AMD were dumb for thinking gamers give even the slightest fuck about power usage. Gamers would much more readily accept a CPU going from 120W to 500W if it meant an imaginary +20% perf uplift over a CPU going from 120W to 70W with a +5% perf uplift. I say imaginary because nobody with a high end CPU and a 4090 actually plays their games at 1080p low.
While not theoretically impossible it’s impractical and unheard of for multiple trusted independent audit companies to be commissioned on an extremely regular basis.
Trustable proprietary software is like nuclear fusion as an energy source. Theoretically possible, but we sure as shit don’t have it.
Not even my distro of choice and I thought the exact same thing.
Makes more sense to me to do exactly that.
And on the side, do something like Germany’s Sovereign Tech Fund to support other FOSS projects.
Indeed.
However, proprietary code cannot be trusted to be trustworthy. FOSS can it’s just not guaranteed.
Surely you’ve realised your instance has a huge pro-russian, pro-china tankie presence?
Lemmy.ml admins me for being against Russia invading Ukraine and committing genocide lmao
If you aren’t a tankie, migrating your account could be something to consider.
Gelsinger said the market will have less demand for dedicated graphics cards in the future.
Reminds me of decades ago when intel didn’t bother getting into graphics because they said pretty soon CPUs would be powerful enough for high-performance graphics rendering lmao
The short-sightedness of Intel absolutely staggers me.
I’m so fucking sick of this discussion.
If your income is in the form of dividends, stock selling, or collecting rent money, you’re not a worker.
If you work as an employee for a company, and are also a landlord on the side, then yes you are a worker. But you are a worker because of the working for a company part, not the landlord part.
End of discussion.
Now let’s look at a paragraph from this dog shit article, breaking it up into points…
I know investment bankers and corporate lawyers who work far more hours and under much greater pressure than me.
And? Nobody ever said investment bankers or lawyers weren’t workers. They work for companies and are paid.
They have no inherited income, come from ordinary backgrounds and their wealth is entirely down to their salary.
Ok? What does this have to do with assessing whether someone is a worker or not?
But that salary is simply too large for them to count as working people.
When did the government or anybody ever say that anyone with a decent salary isn’t a worker?
In any case, I’ve watched several episodes of Industry, and they are patently the wrong type of working people. And what’s more, they are having way too much sex, although Starmer has not quantified how much coupling working people are allowed.
I don’t even know what to say about this. Are they unrelatedly complaining about sex in a TV programme, or do they genuinely think Labour’s view on who counts as a worker comes down to how often that person has sex and how many people they have sex with?
It’s honestly embarrassing that FT even published this. Under a fucking £39 per month paywall too.
The kind of people you find on Mastodon following Firefox news are not the same as the average person. They are a bubble.
A few thousand people paying $5 per year is not enough to replace hundreds of millions.
