daggermoon, in Mozilla partners with Ecosia for a better web | The Mozilla Blog

Unless they make Ecosia the default search engine in Firefox, this is worthless.

DreamlandLividity,

This is preparation for that in case google loses its appeal and is forbidden to pay Firefox to be the default.

daggermoon,

Am I wrong for hoping that happens?

DreamlandLividity,

Idk, on one hand I get what you mean. On the other hand, Firefox going away or being monetized in more aggressive ways will not be a good thing.

Honestly, I think I would prefer the lawsuit never happened and Google kept paying Firefox. Now, if Google loses, Firefox will likely head for enshitification. And if google wins, it sets terrible precedent :(

helpmyusernamewontfi,

Now, if Google loses, Firefox will likely head of enshitification.

The whole thing is FOSS. if the company goes over the community can still maintain it if they wish to

rockerface, in Most iPhone owners see little to no value in Apple Intelligence so far

They need to release Apple Strength and Apple Dexterity to make the experience more complete

BrazenSigilos, in Suchir Balaji: OpenAI whistleblower found dead in apartment

<span style="color:#323232;">The San Francisco medical examiner's office determined his death to be suicide and police found no evidence of foul play.

Does anyone else find it statistically significant how often whistle blowers commit suicide within a few days of releasing information or making a statement?

solrize, in Gumroad PSA

We need browser extensions to kill those tags automatically.

shittydwarf, in OpenAI whistleblower found dead in San Francisco apartment

So when does the all out manhunt with every possible available resource deployed to find the killer begin?

Aatube,

"no evidence of foul play", so a long ways away

gon, in OpenAI whistleblower found dead in San Francisco apartment

Oh, I see how it is. They keep killing and killing, but we hit ONE CEO and shit hits the fan. Alright, then.

Siegfried, in AI is not Designed for You

The question with this is, after a year or so of this nonsense, are they succeeding in selling AI?

iconic_admin, in Teen creates memecoin, dumps it, earns $50,000

Earns? A strange turn of phrase for a con.

dinckelman,

Welcome to 2024. Either you play, or get played. Being genuine and honest is becoming harder by the day

nandeEbisu,

He did more labor for that 50k than someone like Musk did for their next 50k

Why downvoting? It is good for community to know this, even if content is far from cheerful. Expressing criticism in comments does more for public awareness than making the message less visible.

ShinkanTrain, in Stop using generative AI as a search engine

Ok.

shoulderoforion, in Linus Torvalds affirms expulsion of Russian maintainers

"Ok, lots of Russian trolls out and about.

It's entirely clear why the change was done, it's not getting reverted, and using multiple random anonymous accounts to try to "grass root" it by Russian troll factories isn't going to change anything.

And FYI for the actual innocent bystanders who aren't troll farm accounts - the "various compliance requirements" are not just a US thing.

If you haven't heard of Russian sanctions yet, you should try to read the news some day. And by "news", I don't mean Russian state-sponsored spam.

As to sending me a revert patch - please use whatever mush you call brains. I'm Finnish. Did you think I'd be supporting Russian aggression? Apparently it's not just lack of real news, it's lack of history knowledge too."

fuck yes. fuck russia. fuck russians.

Thanks, EU.

Please just let this be a global decision, and not like these companies do with GDPR.

Side loading and OS modding would be the only thing that could make migrate.

LakesLem, in Elon Musk and company take @x handle from its original user. He got zero dollars for it.
