Mozilla is an ad company now. It happened when they picked up anonym last year. It's why I use iron fox and librewolf that disable the telemetry by default among other things until ladybird gets closer to ready. Not to mention Mozilla forcing their ToS now to use the base browser on new installs and soon™ for existing users.

Mozilla is prepping for how to replace their income from the Google default search deal. I'm 99% sure it'll get blown up when the dust settles in the anti-trust case. It's why they ended a bunch of projects that won't make any money and branched into a bunch of weird (for them) markets like AI hoping to make money. The only proven to make money thing they are doing so far is ads.

Leaving one ad powered company for another isn't what I want to do. Fool me once...

Most of the time in meetings I think, "this should've been an email..."

Is this race a majority or plurality wins?

Email encryption has been a thing since '91. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Good_Privacy

So why not have their own F-Droid repository like FUTO does with their apps?

Anytime pre-facebook allowing signups to anything but .edu email addresses

They bought Motorola back in the day. I always assumed it was for the patent portfolio.

Clippy still wins though because you could have him duck off.

"Looks like you're writing a letter"

No I'm not, fuck off Clippy.

Turns out we just hadn't coined the term for computer intelligence being wrong as hallucinating yet.

My local game store said demand for console is high; MKW bundle being the most popular. The demand for games, accessories and controllers is not high. I can't imagine that lack of demand to blamed on anything else other than pricing or uncertainty of the economy.

Yeah, turns out $80 for a game will have people only buying must have games or in my case no games at all.

If you can install SteamOS on it, it'll probably run better

I'm interested to know what power company doesn't give price for a kWh nor how many kWh you used in a billing period. It was essential when I made the switch to an EV and had to show my wife how much money we saved with electric vs gasoline.

If you don't know what your electric appliance uses to cook, you can get energy monitors that can give you the exact amount. I have an emporia car charger and a plug monitor for my mower batteries. It's as simple as setting you electricity rate in the app and setting the view to currency costs. Here's my recent usage for mowing my yard ~2 acres:

It usually costs me $0.30 to mow and trim a week compared to gasoline equivalent of my old mower and trimmer of just over a gallon per week. I pay $0.14478/kWh where I live, gas is currently $2.899/ gal. The break even for my car in efficiency is gasoline has to be around $1.50/gal iirc.

I guess I never noticed. I always wear a ball cap when driving, always have before wearing glasses. Just another tool I use and have not given it much thought.

Transition lenses are great. Try them for your next pair. They do lag a few seconds transitioning back to transparent when going indoors.

Yeah but can it run SteamOS?
