Don’t threaten me with a good time Satya@bert_hubert@eupolicy.social Dear Satya,

According to Tech Radar, a reason to avoid using Vivaldi web browser is "No AI-powered assistant".@brucelawson@social.vivaldi.net The trouble with Vivaldi is that like 90% of all other 'third party' browsers, it's Chrome in a trenchcoat under the hood. With everything that entails. Vivaldi also reserve the right to themselves to select what ads they consider acceptable to you.
(What ads do I consider acceptable in my browser — or anywhere else? None for anything I'm not actively looking for.) -
Hey, Firefox - go fuck yourself.@izzyamar@beige.party Afterthought: I saw a post just the other day listing all of the about:config options to set false to both speed up Firefox browsing AND disable all current 'AI' features. But I can't find it again now.
A good start is to go into about:config, put browser.ml in the search bar, and toggle EVERY browser.ml.*.enabled option that comes up to false, plus every true/false option ('.enabled' or otherwise) under browser.ml.chat. -
Hey, Firefox - go fuck yourself.@izzyamar@beige.party The Register has had a number of articles over the last six months about how utterly disconnected the Mozilla Foundation's leadership has become from Firefox's actual userbase. El Reg used the word "rudderless" more than once.
Mozilla's "leaders" don't seem to understand that if they eliminate from Firefox all of the reasons that people use it, people will no longer have any reason to use it. -
This existence So brief a spark Between eternities.@Aphelion@mastodon.sdf.org Did you ever watch Babylon 5? That made me think of this quote:
“The past tempts us, the present confuses us, and the future frightens us... and our lives slip away, moment by moment, lost in that vast terrible in-between. But there is still time to seize that one last fragile moment, to choose something better, to make a difference.”

On pedocon theory: why movement conservativism is inextricably entwined with paedophilia (and why the POTUS is probably a paedophile too):https://www.liberalcurrents.com/we-need-to-talk-about-pedocon-theory/@GyrosGeier@hachyderm.io @cstross@wandering.shop @d1ss0nanz@mastodon.social The deeply-loony far-Libertarians who took over Grantville, New Hampshire even tried to legalize consensual human cannibalism.
