Not "API", and Mozilla intends to vote against, I hope...

Thanks man, I didn't know this...

There are huge selections of manufactures, speeds, powers, capacities, and so on... Thus, it is hard to simply let you pick and choose... They pick some parts, limit external facto…

This is just another attack on the open & free internet. Why so? Since Google defines per their own metrics fast vs slow, they will imprint that impression upon the user, making an…

Yeah, I know it is, and said pretty much what you said...

Yea, what is this BS Linux kernel build process that is a known metric that everyone can test against? I compile projects dozens of times a day at my work and never once I compiled…

Here is why they track and collect: “Hiding within those mounds of data is knowledge that could change the life of a patient, or change the world.” (Atul Butte, Stanford) "Informat…

Did you try the Firefox Account? I use Firefox on desktop, android and iOS, and sync my passwords with no problem.

You mean the ones google is fighting to keep, while trying to convince everyone that allowing more tracking would incentive bad actors to drop fingerprinting ?

Privacy is not a Industrial Age stuff... I could be private in Rome, just as I'm now, just a random dude working... A small cog, no one gets to know me, no on cares to gossip about…

While Mozilla puts users first, certain companies think they are entitled to run "their" arbitrary code on your PC, with just one click, zero warning... Oh, i forgot, they are big …

I tried it on the weekend, and it indeed work...

Sure, my gov (Brazil) uses reCaptcha on the page where you can check your electoral status (For example: if you can vote, where, and if not, what is missing). Where can I find a co…

Kind of like the Good Old Days™? Jokes aside, Search engines are for stuff we don't know... I get my news from some sites, this one for example, and I don't depend o Google for tha…

Happy to see some things I learned the hard way with 15 years... Man, I wish I had this level of knowledge when I was 20...

Blaming the language for the market is a mistake... If you stop promoting PHP, more devs will start on other language, and the market will pay lower, since there is more people to …

These companies then lobby the government, asking to be relieved of the fines, because if they go down, so many workers will be out of jobs, and that they will comply (pinky promis…

Did you mean "Chrome"?

Another example to show why we need to get Firefox at least on the 20% market-share... Google is doing with Chrome exactly what Microsoft did with IE...
