I agree, shutdowns suck, but a month or 2 of crappiness is nothing compared to years of a Trump presidency.
If a shutdown is what it takes to seal a Harris presidency, so he it I say

Yea, that’s not helping keep anything off the enshittification train that’s for sure. Desperation is dangerous.
Oh the irony lol
We’re growing the Mozilla Ads product team, passionate about display advertising in Mozilla products that is privacy-respecting and values-aligned. You will be one of the lead engineers that will craft, build, and be responsible for the core systems, both front-end and back-end, that support advertising in clients (Firefox, MDN, Pocket, Fakespot, etc). You and your team will be the domain guides when it comes to advertising, providing direction and shepherding to various product teams across Mozilla.
Ofc some reading between the lines is needed, they’re not going to just blatantly say something they know will be incredibly unpopular this early.
And like I said, its just another on a pile of mounting evidence of a year of bad decisions
Not in the browser. From web pages sure, but it sure as hell sounds like they’re going to shove ads in the browser like MS has been testing in the start menu. Once that starts who knows, maybe they’ll have their own little Chrome manifest v3 rollout that breaks adblocking for webpages too.
Based on this and the past year of “mistakes” it’s sure looking more and more like they’re trying to push ahead on the enshittification path.
If they’re so desperate to find other sources of income why does the Mozilla CEO not take a pay cut out of that 10 million/year
We’re going to explore doing so in an organic method across our products using the methodology that big tech is generating money, but with a Mozilla spin.
Hm yes, the “we’re built different so we won’t be affected by enshittification” option
that support advertising in clients (Firefox, MDN, Pocket, Fakespot, etc)
Ah, the “Mozilla Spin” is to put fucking ads in Firefox, got it.
Gaming is one thing, a lot is GPU bound anyways, probably the same with “physical modeling”
But you cannot tell me your “data processing” would not be greatly sped up by using a newer proc (assuming it’s not also GPU bound). Does it work, sure, but if it takes you 2 hours for it to process now but <30 minutes on something newer that’s just a waste of time, resources and money. It’s incredibly inefficient.
On the flip side, if all your work is GPU bound no wonder a 3rd gen proc from 2012 is keeping up lol
The R5 2600 is not only newer than my old i5 and faster, it also has a LOT more threads (12 vs 4) and an extra 2 full cores
Making it excellent for the multi threaded workloads (VMs) and leaving room for non-multithreaded optimized workloads
I have an RTSP client program running all the time displaying a handful of camera feeds. It had a ~45-55% average CPU usage even with GPU decoding/encoding enabled on it.
That same piece of software on my much newer 7600 changing absolutely nothing else software wise (I just dropped in the SSD from my old build) that same software barely cracks 5%
iCUE (for Corsair RGB control (yes I know there’s open source versions I just never got around to it lol)) had a similar story with ~30-40% before and barely 4% now
Looking at you, Samsung
*Samshit or Samsuck whichever lol
bad battery bloat
We call that a “Spicy Pillow” sir
The enshittification warning signs are going off everywhere, Mozilla is being corrupted before our very eyes. Now is not the time to hand wave it away.
Still working for me
I called it months ago with the whole Russia fiasco and then reiterated with the whole ad company buy out fiasco. Downvoted both times.
Mozilla is on a path of enshittification and from what I see the “safeguards” that were put in place to prevent enshittification of FF are eroding
ChatGPT 4o:
Trump’s statement seems to convey a rambling attempt at explaining the moral influence of religion. He’s essentially saying that religion motivates people to be good because of the belief in an afterlife (heaven). Without that belief, he suggests, people might wonder why they should behave well at all. He struggles to articulate the idea clearly, repeatedly circling back to the notion that the promise of heaven is a reason to be good.
In simpler terms, he seems to be saying: Religion gives people a reason to strive for goodness because it offers the reward of heaven. Without that, people might question why they should bother being good.
o1-preview (the fancy dancy reasoning one):
Certainly! In this statement, Donald Trump is emphasizing the importance of religion in promoting moral behavior. He suggests that religion gives people a reason to be good because it introduces the concept of heaven as a reward for good deeds. Without the belief in heaven or an afterlife, he implies that people might question the purpose of being good and could potentially disregard moral standards. Essentially, he’s arguing that religion and the promise of heaven motivate individuals to behave ethically.
They still explode in some cases. Plenty of clips of li-ion not just catching fire but exploding similar to how a firework might explode.
I did not say they did, but they can explode violently
Shrapnel, no, but Lithium-Ion does explode. Especially on a full charge
It works well…when a parent makes an account for the express purpose of parental controls. The “issue” are the fake accounts (i.e. “finstas”) that the kids make themselves in which they lie about their age.
Also, side note, Googles child accounts work OK, I would not say they’ve got it on lock. Did you know if you get your kids a debit card and they’re under 13 Google will NOT allow them to add it as their own payment method no matter what consent I’m willing to give to them?
Yea, I had to do a parent sanctioned age-lie to Google so now Google thinks my kids are all 13+ just so I could do the extreme thing of teaching them money responsibilities in an age of digital transactions SMDH
Because they won’t need to figure stuff out on their own to the same degree.
Lol they will the second they get hit with that “you need to get parental consent” screen, that’s how it happened to us all.
Thanks a lot for blowing my cover, now everyone knows I’m a vampire!
