Black Mirror has its work cut out for it, that’s all I’ll say.

Behold the next generation of voters.

He knows the words.

LO is fine for most uses though working back and forth with Office users can be problematic. Two things that I like about are: it offers a database module, which Office for the Mac doesn’t have, and it can open a lot of older file formats that newer apps can’t.

There’s no way this can cause the Earth to be catapulted into the Sun.

The looks like an interesting process. It would cool to see someone create new ones but it won’t be simple given the requirements.

Every little bit helps.

Nobody in the entire world wants this but Zuck. Nobody.

There’s no reason to expect this to succeed, but I put my name on the list to be notified when it launches. We’ll see, I guess.

Test-driving them both now.

I had a feeling this would happen. I have to use Google services for a lot of things at work and Edge works fine with them. Firefox usually does okay, but not always. And now Firefox is requiring you to hand over your data to them.

Can any Chromium-based browser refuse to turn on V3 or is it too baked-in without forking the entire project?

Governmental advocates for mandatory backdoors have no clue that they effectively make encryption moot. UK users will only be silghtly less secure with no encryption vs. backdoored encryption.

Free Speech Absolutist 🤣

It’s been obvious for a while that spez is trying to be a Musk/Zuck.

Enshittification intensifies.

spez is slow walking Reddit to the graveyard.

I don’t know if he specifically wants that so much as he doesn’t care if it happens.

He seems to think that doing this will force manufacturers to build in the US, versus the Biden approach of incentivizing them to do that. What he doesn’t realize this will do is raise chips prices and manufacturers will simply pass that cost onto consumers.

I suspect this is part of his strategy to hand Taiwan over to the PRC, if “strategy” can be used to describe anything he does.

I got out just in time, it seems.

How much longer will Bluesky survive without doing the same?

I know this got a lot of downvotes, that’s fine. Most of my friends are not tech-savvy or young, they’re not going to be signing up for Lemmy or Mastodon. I’m not ready to lose touch with them entirely. I have taken steps to limit what info Meta can collect from me and stopped posting there entirely. I check in now and then to see if there’s anything big, but that’s it.
