  • As far as I know ironfox supports any extensions normal firefox mobile does, but neither give you access to the full full extensions store. Iceraven is the only mobile browser I know of that lets you use all the extensions that you can on desktop firefox.

  • I normally use ironfox, but honestly I don't really have the technical knowledge to know which one is better. I use iceraven for some stuff because it let's you use desktop firefox extensions. With ironfox I just use ublock and noscript, I don't want any extra stuff that can leak data or assist in fingerprinting my browser.

  • If they can measure force in Newtons I see no reason we couldn't measure danger in Napoleons. Let's say Napoleon was responsible for 4 million deaths in Europe, that would mean the annual US traffic fatalities of around 40,000 would be 1 Centinapoleon.

    Hope that clears things up.

  • Yeah I think they would have had to slow down or stop sales and make a big deal about reworking their production lines for better QC. Then come back a year or two later with actual improvements. I think Tesla probably have enough brand recognition that they can survive without Musk so hopefully they kick him out.

    I think the US car industry as a whole is due for a major price adjustment, so I kind of see that as it's own issue. Car prices need to be cut at least in half to make them practical as utility items. We're being asked to drive vehicles that costs as much as a house did 30 years ago, and are approaching the same size, on the highway and leave them parked inches from each other.

  • Yeah but having desperately poor states bordering wealthy ones would require lots of security. There will be lots of desperate, unhappy people with lots of guns and potentially no reciprocity. I worry it would just lead to modern day bleeding Kansas or an Amercan wide version of the Troubles.

    Like they're already trying to take over the federal government, what's stopping them from trying to take over a neighboring state?

  • My main point against the idea is that they wouldn't need to hide the fact it was happening. If it were possible with current tech there would already be some AI subscription bullshit that listens and takes notes on everything you do all day.

    Honestly most people I saw outside of the hardcore tech sphere were excited about apple intelligence until it became clear what a shit show it was. I don't see how it was supposed to be any less invasive than windows recall but it got a completely different reaction. You just need a good advertising/propoganda department and people will pay you for the privilege of being spied on.

  • For the keyboard I would try Florisboard on f-droid, it gives a lot more spacing and sizing options. I basically make the keys as wide as possible and then play with key height. The bottom offset let's you raise or lower the keyboard as a whole to suit your grip.

    I was a long time AnySoftkeyBoard user until a year or two ago when I finally decided Floris was just better. I've tried FUTO keyboard a little bit, it seemed fine but didn't offer enough customization options.

  • Not exactly the same situation but I've noticed that Chrome has moved from only being virtually unusable with my VPN running, to actually unusable. It just refuses to resolve URLs and won't search, previously it just gave tons of Captcha popups if I tried to do anything. Honestly at this point I've just accepted I have to make firefox based browsers work for everything from now on.

  • I think this is also a problem of old timers not being able to articulate their concerns well. There is probably a reason they do or don't do something a certain way, but if they can't explain why, then no one is going to listen. Blindly following someone for percieved wisdom doesn't teach you anything.

    I actually like it when someone can show me why I'm wrong, because it saves me time. But if you can't tell me WHY my idea won't work, I'm probably just gunna do it anyway to figure it out myself.

    I think this is as much a case of bad teachers as it is bad students.
