You can be ordered to log however.

Zero-knowledge protocols are important.

I seem to be pretty good at breathing. Where do I send the invoices?

"could wipe the disease out"

..."but won't, because thanks to Capitalism it will be non-affordable."

Nice try, fed.

It's impressive. Any other country in the world that was bombing two (2) (Dos) countries at a time nowadays would get hell of flack.

But not the 21st century Nazis, not them!

Talking news and sharing links? There's lemmy for that!

No hope, no cope. Just a basic understanding on how the HTTP infrastructure and time dilation work.

You can have one or two execs, as a treat; but certainly they don't need to be paid crazy figures like what has been the case with Mozilla as of late. It's not like they're that important, in particular for the kind of project something like Firefox is (which could do with eg.: coop governance).

Okay, but what if after all this legal action Mozilla decides that it’s no longer worth serving the privacy conscious crowd? Which browser will you use then?

Firefox.

Just because the execs decide to stop serving the software, doesn't mean the copies (and source code!) already out in the wild will automagickally stop functioning. You'll still be able to visit websites the day after, the month after, the year after... And there's still the devs, since they're not the execs.

By the time there's issues, there'll still be the forks. Someone will have already step up to fork and keep the work on their own, too; the name just weighs enough that someone will want to be "the next Firefox" (not "the next Mozilla"). Or even better, the devs (obvs not the execs) will have jumped ship into any one of the various alternative projects such as ladybird, or might even have started a new project from scratch, hopefully intending for it to be a leaner and better browsr.

Nothing screams "capitalism!" louder than a geofencing over Anne Frank of all things.

Lemme see, US good, China bad?

Eh, I don’t know if it was illegitimate or not considering he allowed abuse to carry on on the platform for years and due to no encryption it was well known about.

Knife makers absolutely know people are using their tools to commit crimes, up to and even murder. Are they going to be held up until they do Something(TM) about it?

NOYB would’ve done much better by talking to Mozilla directly and advocating for them to do the right thing going for a legal complaint as the final nuclear option. I

It has been already vastly demonstrated by Mozilla, that going to them and talking to them about how they shouldn't do shitty things doesn't work.

If it takes legal action to even try and save the browser, I'm all for it.

It is now o3o

You mean killing children as par for the course, or killing people who are attending a funerary rite for other people who were killed by the same killer, is somehow not an atrocity?

Truly the depravity of Israel knows no limits.

It seems they did learn some stuff from WW2.

It's a licensing statement. Their post is CC-licensed.

Don't Google hold the keys to the kingdom on that one? I see it as unlikely that Signal adds support.

They do stand up for themselves. Meaning, their bottom line.

A friend got me into Monster Hunter and now I have nearly 5000 hours split across various games, the bastard. I guess I won't be doing cocaine or gunpla or toy car collecting anytime soon! XD

It's a really great experience, I often say good MH games (that is, MH games in general: bad games are a rarity in this franchise) bring out my three preferred Ms: music, monsters and marvels, the latter one meaning the landscapes, the maps, the exploration. You haven't experienced what kind of comfy immersion can game developers go for until you wander about the Sandy Plains at night to bbq up some Aptonoths and Rhenoplos into steak, and you watch the shooting stars in the night sky. And then you get distracted from the bbq serial griller and you end up with 2x Burnt Meat instead...

Started out with 3U. Underwater is great btw, don't listen to people who say it shouldn't return. The first time I tried the game I just Didn't Get It and thought it was not for me.... but man the music was so cool (the Sandy Plains battle music!) and the monster designs (Barioth!) insisted that I should make another try. Grabbed it back after a long break, followed the instructions this time, found a weapon that was to my liking (switchaxe, or as we call it, the Swag Axe), and haven't really stopped much since then. I take good care to backup my saves often as well, juuuuust in case I don't really like to grind hundreds of hours for the most random rewards on the double. By this point the only gen I have not played is Gen1, I've played Dos, FU, Tri, P3rd, 3U (1400 hrs), 4U, XX, Gen, GU (1200 hrs), Rise, Sunbreak and Stories 2 (800 hrs). Nowadays I can sometimes be found on the LanPlay network on MHGU and MHRS, and I'm waiting to get a better computer so I can try Frontier and maybe Iceborne.

Now, everyone has an opinion and so do I, so I'm clear on a number of things. Starting with World the game has casualized so much. Some casualization is fine, as a treat, and I like some QoL such as the tree view for weapon upgrades as much as the next person. But sometimes a game can be casualized to the extreme, to the point even TDS and NCH have taken jabs at it at points, like getting you infinite Ancient Potions, or the loss of most technical inventory management or environment management in Rise. It'd be nice to see Monster Hunter come back to form, with a properly numbered game (Monster Hunter 5, maybe call it "Quinto" or smth!) and fights that are more about besting a monster in its own turf rather than simply hiding under a beast's legs (or far away at a ledge) and spamming X or R (hey, gunners!) to win.

But the music... oh, the music! And the ambience SFX. Now that has never faltered. Despite its many mishaps, World has some of the best and comfiest music in the series.
