  • “Arab country bad”

    Yes but not because of ethnicity but because of human rights abuses.

  • Gaming on ARM is going to have a steep hill to climb until there’s a Proton-esque compatibility layer.

    Or even better: The company developing Windows on ARM, selling ARM Surface devices, one of the biggest game publishers after the takeover of Activision could just release their own freaking games on their own platform. Not even the casual games are:

  • Lol, finally someone noticed that Windows on ARM exists. Microsoft certainly doesn't even though some Surface tablets are using it. Not a single Microsoft game has been ported to Windows on ARM.

  • back when it was new

    So a year later the time bomb still did not go off.

  • With all what they offer, 30% IMO is fair.

    It's not like the games are cheaper on other stores with lower cuts. Why would customers care if the lower cut just results in publishers pocketing higher profits.

  • This is by a Apple fanboy who is disgruntled that Valve broke up with Macs (Steam is still available but updates like the HL1 remaster aren't any longer). Yeah, send thoughts an prayers for a cult who buy overpriced computers with weak iGPUs that only recently learned to do some raytracing but understand no Vulkan or somewhat modern OpenGL.

    Apple has decided that gaming on Macs is about iPhone games on bigger screens and not about supporting cross-platform APIs and frameworks. Don't blame any but Apple that your beloved platform is shit for gaming.

  • How about all the other that have no checkboxes and you can find by snooping around in either the code or about:config ?

    Which are? Genuine question. I'm not aware of those either.

  • There’s more settings you should set regarding privacy

    Please be more specific.

  • The issue is that Mozilla is actively hiding these settings.

    They are under "Privacy", just as I expected where they would.

    There’s one (I forgot which one) that you can’t find by searching for the title in the FF settings, you have to scroll to it yourself.

    🤷

  • If you only play Mario, Zelda and such, that's perfectly fine and then a Nintendo's own console is obviously superior.

    3rd party games usually run much better on Steam Deck (not surprisingly because of its much more recent hardware). I bought Team Sonic Racing again on Steam after I had a very bad experience playing the Switch version in split screen multiplayer. It just stutters way to much and on one course it's IMO unplayable.

  • Friendship ended with Firefox,❎ Librewolf is my new best friend. ✅

    A big problem with such forks (same with packages made by Linux distributors) is that there is a delay between official FF release and the release of the corresponding update of the fork. 99% of the time this doesn't matter much but when there is a severe security issue, the patch needs to be available ASAP.

    Past enshittifications of Firefox could be disabled by users. Users who know what to disable don't need such forks then.

    I'm not yet clear what Mozilla even intends. Is it just an adjustment of language of things that are already in FF and can be disabled easily? If so, I just keep the following shit disabled and benefit from earlier update releases.

  • Installed DuckDuckGo browser as soon as I saw the news the other day.

    Oh cool, yet another Chromium variant. That's going to be an actual change for the better.

  • The browser you use to download Firefox

    Huh? Just type winget install Mozilla.Firefox into PowerShell / cmd.

  • Also, Ukraine should be at war with the US for its interference in the election process in 2014, where the democratically elected leader was toppled in a blatant west-backed coup.

    And here you are, laying bare that you're just repeating pro Russian propaganda. Calling the right to protest a coup. Not the occupation of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine is the problem but the people rising up.

    He’s not the one threatening our minorities and our women, he does that in Russia.

    Yeah, Russia is just there doing some domestic stuff we don't need to care about. Russia isn't occupying parts of Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia. Russia isn't expanding westwards. Just sit idly by when tens of thousands of non-Russian children get kidnapped, put into reeducation camps, to then fight for Russia. Just sit idly by when Russian agents outright attack German barracks and twiddle your thumbs. Other issues are way more important than caring about that campaign of extermination in Eastern Europe within the borders of an EU-aspirant.

    stop presenting Europe as the fighting ground for WW3

    Good I didn't do it. Another Russian propaganda tool is to push back against claims that were never made, acting as if anyone but Russia was the aggressor, trying to move the conversation into Russia's genocide being just legitimate self-defense.

    You're nothing but a Russian propagandist, whether you're aware of it or not.

    "But wouldn't a Russian propagandist deny that bad things are happening inside Russia?" the propaganda playbook would make you ask in return, admitting to some criticism but brush it off as a domestic problem far away, trying to cast doubts on your underlying intentions. Russia's propagandists up the illusion of a broader political landscape. Put the AfD on Germany's far right, put the BSW on Germany's far left, put appeasers somewhere in between, and divert attention away from Russia's attempts at conquering Europe.

  • Europe isn’t at war with Russia

    Yes, we are. From election interference to contamination of drinking water at military bases in Germany, incendiary devices placed on DHL planes, and cutting undersea cables.

    we should be struggling in favour of diplomacy to reduce both our and their military expenditure…

    Completely naive. Diplomacy only works from a position of strength.

    Russia invaded Georgia. No military help, only diplomacy: Led nowhere.

    Russia's 2014 invasion of Ukraine: No military help, only diplomacy. Two Minsk Accords Russia used to build up their military and Russia then happily broke.

    reduce military expenditure with fascist Russia, and take care of our own fascist problems.

    Russia is part of Europe. Russia is waging genocide in Europe. North Korean soldiers are murdering in Europe. Putin is our fascist problem and people appeasing Putin are also a part of the problem.

  • Considering that Putin is the biggest fascist threat for all of Europe, your statement is laughable. The Left agree that Putin is doing bad things in Ukraine and other countries but their message is that the domestic social net is more important than Europe's survival and all weapon deliveries must stop. Let's talk instead.

    If policies were up to them, they'd be helping fascism almost as much as outright Putin sheep
