You seem to be really stuck on this. You posted about a grant program that Mozilla is involved in for a startup to work on developing a secure chat on a more open protocol. Now you dug up a LinkedIn post about the same startup attending an unrelated AI technology conference.

No one is saying that Mozilla isn't involved in AI at all. The only thing I said is that the foundation is in trouble because Google antitrust actions are likely to harm their funding. As a result, they are cutting back in a lot of areas, including staffing, AI, and other side projects.

The original article ignorantly and irresponsibly overlooks the basic math of the situation.

Looks like a step in the right direction. E2EE messaging is a worthy venture under the Mozilla umbrella.

Not sure why you are posting about it in this thread about AI.

The author's timeline is off. The AI investment was in 2023, before most of the Google antitrust activity. They are also scaling back their AI programs.

Why do people love to hate on Firefox? People have been harping on Pocket for years as a waste of resources that hardly anyone uses, but now that they are eliminating it, people are coming out of the woodwork to wax nostalgic?

It turns out that making a modern browser is a huge, complex task. It's been said that it is more on par with maintaining an OS than another type of app. Mozilla is not perfect but why are we so quick to let the perfect be the enemy of the good?

It's pretty tone-deaf to criticize layoffs on the same article that acknowledges their historic dependence on Google's rapidly collapsing monopoly. Where is the money going to come from?

A poorly thought out blog post about the only major browser that isn't built on Apple, Google, or Microsoft.

Didn't Escobar Inc. already try this?

Looking forward to the JerryRigEverything video.

This may be an even better example than the positron. Originally a theoretical antimatter form of the common electron, with no practical application.

Turned out to be a vital tool for medical imaging. If you or someone you know has ever had a PET scan, now you know what the P stands for.

Lip injections make me think of those wax lips they used to give out for Halloween

C'mon, people... File versioning.

Ooh, that's good.

Sometimes it can begin as empathy. As simple as "how would YOU feel if someone else did/said that?"

Of course, most people without much self awareness choose to be that way and will rarely thank you for helping them. Just be cautious, especially if they are in a position of power.

Happy cake day!

Thanks - this was the solution. I've updated the post to reflect the solution I used.

Most people aren't paying for the education. They are paying for the degree. The education they could get for £1.50 in late fees at the library. This is not something new.

"Get back in that bottle you stupid genie!"

They are idiots if they think this will get people back to work. Trump thinks in days, immigrants think in decades. No way most people at risk jeopardize their future on the promise of a liar.

I believe that's exactly what is happening. I just don't know how to fix it. I could edit the YML files and delete restart: unless-stopped but I want my containers to restart if something goes down unexpectedly

I'm even less of an expert lol. What information can I provide to help?

Meme coins are snake oil and where there is snake oil, there's a snake oil salesman. Someone got all that money.

Important to understand that meme coins don't "lose" money. That money didn't just evaporate. It went somewhere.

So where did it go? Hmmm...

Some considerations:

• Do you prefer to have only the latest technology, regardless of cost? These phones are in flagship price ranges.
• Are you very careful with your phone? Cases exist, but necessarily protect less of the device. The screen is far more prone to damage, but they are durable enough for daily use if you are a careful person.
• Are you looking to get/replace both a phone and a tablet? Reviewers tend to say that foldables are not an adequate replacement for a tablet, but people I know personally say that it is more than enough to use as a tablet.
• What features are you willing to compromise? Foldables often have lower quality cameras, chips, and smaller batteries than similarly priced phones. I'm assuming you have already looked into it, since this is easiest thing to check.
• Do you just really want a foldable? Honestly, everyone I know who has one loves it. If you like the format then go for it :)
