Give it up for Jimmy Carter
They’re already selling prime Mediterranean beachfront real estate blocks. Palestine will be eradicated if all goes to plan.
And this only just after they enabled a whole raft of add-ons in their mobile browser that have already stripped away so much shit from my daily browsing experience.
I switched last year when Google entered their new phase of ad tracker evil and I bet I wasn’t the only one. Feels to me like Firefox fucked with the money and they’re being brought to heel.
Séamas gave us of the funniest story threads I’ve ever read on that cursed site: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/992006545473966082.html
Welp, guess I’m a Swiftie now.
In their defence, it was a relatively small investment of only $19m. I guess the story is that this must be an indication of how other, larger, investors might also be looking at X.
You’re a goddamn life saver
Yeah, this 100% feels like a trial balloon. It’s obviously ridiculous but it’s going to test some legal statute that will crack the door for whatever Gilead shit they actually intend. Probably abortion rights. First they came for the trans people, etc etc.
My heart goes out to anyone trapped in Texas or any other Gilead state.
For the leopards to not…uh… lynch him? It’s hard to see his position as being anything other than a grift, and I think he knew full well what would happen and this outrage/pointing-and-laughing is all part of the play.
It might be getting a second wind now as an escape from Wayland/NVIDIA and death by a thousand snaps. That was why I switched a few months ago; all I wanted was to play ETS2 on my old laptop, dangit.
He’s going to win and he’s going to finish the job of dismantling the United States of America. He’s quite open about it.
They are suddenly everywhere in Australia, I can tell you that much.
Goldie (accidentally) claimed it was Robert del Naja years ago and that’s the version I want to believe because I love Massive Attack.
It’s definitely larger than I’d like but damned if the manufacturers haven’t heard our demands and realised that, once again, compactness is a premium feature. You can get an itty bitty iPhone or S23 but fuck all in the mid range. Thanks again, The Market!
I bought this a few days ago and it arrives next week: https://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_10_iv-11522.php.
It’s not iPhone or Zenfone small and it’s only midrange spec but it’s pretty compact. Plus SD card slot, 3.5mm jack…

Amen, fellow Lemming. It feels good to pull away from an enshittified corporate staple and adopt something that isn’t trying to consume your soul.
I remember when Netscape was abandoned and open-sourced as Mozilla, and it was huge and bloated as slow as hell. And out of that came a project to just pull out the browser part of Mozilla and make it super fast and as portable. I remember a series of early alphas, and even the name went through a few evolutions. First it was called Phoenix, then Firebird, briefly, until they realised Firebird was taken and changed it to Firefox. It had this shiny new Gecko rendering engine and its only rival was IE…5?
When I started my first dev job in 2006, Firefox was far and away the best browser to use because it had an extension that no other browser could match: Firebug. Firebug was the precursor to the standard F12 devtools that every browser now has and it was life-changing if you were a web developer. (Try imagine doing your job without it now.)
Then Chrome arrived and it was shiny and W3C compliant (yay!) and you could pull a tab off into a separate window (wow!) and every tab ran as a separate process (neat!) and Google wouldn’t be evil for at least another decade. Back then, FF had memory leak problems and that drove a lot of us away.
And then Chrome pulled this ad surveillance shit and I was fucking out. I’m so glad that FF is still here.
I let myself be fully engulfed by the Google/Chrome/Android continuum and it’s only recently that I realised just how much of myself I gave away and, while my personal data has long since been propagated to a million servers, I’d still like to try keep some of myself to myself.
My back hurts.
