@cmccullough It is so hard to let go of something that once mattered. I am sorry that it has come to this. Regardless of how long the writing has been on the wall, or how many unacceptable decisions have been made along the way, it still hurts.

@cmccullough Crap. Disappointed to hear. They blew their reputation as the safety option.

@cmccullough I wish I had answers. I hopped on the Waterfox life raft in the meantime, but I want to be on something that is entirely decoupled from a Mozilla upstream and I refuse to use something that has a Google upstream.
Past experiences of how values and decision making shapes a project make me wary of Ladybird, and I don't know when a browser using Servo might work with my bank's website, etc.

Didn't happen on my system when upgrading from 148.0 to 148.0.2 - might be a legit bug happening under whatever circumstance instead of intention? -

I stopped using Firefox sometime ago, and at that point, it was already just the corpse of a project I once loved (specifics of individual concerns don't seem to matter at this point).

I installed the newest Firefox version on my two Linux laps. That version has "AI Controls" in the settings so that you can shut off "all enhancements."
I hope it works as advertised.
Because I'm still waiting for a new Firefox version for Android that has AI Controls in settings; I can't turn "Nimrod" (sic) off with about:config anymore cause the location bar won't load it.
Nightly might have it. -

And how much is Mitchell Baker making these days? Are her replacements banking similar roll? -
@cmccullough This is so disappointing. I was hopeful, too, in spite of Mozilla's numerous bad moves over the past couple of years. I use a privacy-hardened script, but it's to the point that I'm inclined to go back to LibreWolf as my main browser. It's just sad to see the descent of Firefox (Mozilla).

idk about that one, if ethics are important to you

@TOrynski @getajobmike not learning new things is different from forgetting them tho, and LLM usage can vary a lot in the range from looking at a map to sleeping while the robot drives.
I am convinced coding skills can atrophize but I'm not sure it's a fast process. I haven't driven a bike in a year, but I still know how.

@cwebber it's really good

@paco@infosec.exchange why Discourse?
Use NodeBB. We keep our shit in one folder.
You can put that folder anywhere ðŸ«

@paco this is also important to me. 👊

But no. The discourse "easy installer" sprays shit all over /var. I'm gonna get some database down in /var/lib/docker/something and I'm going to get assets living in /var/discourse, and umpteen gajillion container images in /var/lib/docker.
But I also have fucking /var/log for OS logs, and /var/run for runtime information like PIDs, and /var/lock and /var/tmp. I think /var/most-important-app-on-the-system is NOT where you put application software. So my volume/filesystem to encapsulate discourse? Is that a big ass /var?
I love #FreeBSD because it is so well organized. They even go to trouble to make packages like postfix or apache fit the idiom, rather than let it install in /var/lib/opt/sbin/etc or some shit.

More moaning about #linux. I'm trying to get a discourse server off the ground. Why the fuck do they insist on installing non-OS stuff in the middle of all the OS stuff.
/var/discourse is not a good default. And then fucking docker wants to be /var/lib/docker. Never mind how /var/lib doesn't make any goddamn sense.
Related to my earlier discussion of hard drive partitioning. What I would like to do is have a volume that is not the operating system, but is instead all the application data. The discourse data, database, assets people upload, etc. That way I can have this nice virtual disk that encapsulates it. I could theoretically build a new node, attach this drive to the new node, and migrate the site. I can snapshot that drive more frequently than, say, the OS drive. Lots of benefits to encapsulating it.

@getajobmike It's interesting to see it grep in parallel for a dozen likely things in a codebase, like when an error string is constructed from variables and static strings or passed through a couple layers, and you have no stacktrace. But it will also get inverted about what's a diff vs code and point out some non-issue that wastes your time. If you work in a language with a lot of boilerplate like java, I can see it being too handy of a shovel.
