The Paradox is invariably trotted out to justify political censorship far before Popper's own conditions, and frankly most often by some of the most close-minded people I've ever s…

> Apple could be forced to scan for ANYTHING by repressive regimes including America and China. Including Europe. Europe is ruled by people who think 1984 was an instruction manual…

I've liked Sony, myself, at least before they shit the bed with firmware. They stayed on better, and had better noise canceling. The transparency was a bit metallic. AirPods in com…

Also just having your stuff available on multiple devices, having it be easy to move devices, etc. All that said, I don't like the deep desktop-OneDrive type integration, very much…

Logseq isn't abandonware - they're in the process of rebuilding the app from the ground up to be database-driven, rather than house-brand Markdown as the source of truth and a data…

Search for: from:EFF "twitter files" on X. Zip, zilch, nada. Nothing about a large government censorship campaign that especially targeted conservatives.

Antiracists are as against racism as North Korea is democratic, and the people's, and as much as the Berlin Wall was an anti-fascist protection rampart and totally not a way to sto…

That's the thing: They choose leftist allegiances over their ostensible job. For example, search for "twitter files" on the EFF's Twitter account. Nothing. Blatant government effor…

How so? Cat are open borders people, no?

No sense in not trying out Affinity, I think.

Canva's operated on a freemium model for years with their own main product, and they have a lot of stuff on the Canva side they can implement into Affinity as a value add. Very lit…

Sure, but the brits have voted for less immigration please for 30 years straight and only ever gotten more of it. The SAVE Act the orange dude's admin is trying to pass? Requiring …

What'd be the effect of Swift be on the possibility of a Windows port? I know anything end user friendly is ages away, but I don't live in Apple land, and neither does most of the …

Easy, Harvard is essentially a training center for their ideological enemies on top of providing an actual education. They're just putting the boot down and saying stick to teachin…

Possibly true, but it's also worth noting that the weirdos who develop Asahi do, in fact, do good work.

Running uBO and Shields at the same time isn't a good idea, generally speaking. Pick one and go with it.

Huh, I was under the impression that you were forking Chromium itself instead of building over Electron. Or are you talking about a past, post-Gecko decision that had to be dropped…

Yeah, the consumer side Teams app is already different in UX than the corporate one. Wouldn't have been terribly difficult to brand that as Skype and market it as such.

Yes, on desktop. Mobile Firefox still has none, though that should change within this year or the next.

Brave lets you add custom filter lists and write your own filters. The blocker can also do eg. CNAME uncloaking, which even full-fat uBO can't do on Chromium.

The BAT was Brave's to begin with as far as I know, part of a pool to promote the launch of their tipping system. It makes perfect sense to return the BAT users could assign from t…

That's what a lot of us have. Brave's own ad systems are opt-in, and a majority of users don't opt-in. It's a minority that are interested in the crypto features. I just left the c…

Site isolation is one: Firefox doesn't sandbox websites from each other on non-Windows platforms, and even on Windows its sandboxing solution is just worse than Chromium's. They're…

In addition, since their adblocker isn't an extension and doesn't care about extension APIs, they can do things even Manifest v2 Chrome extensions can't. For example, full-fat uBO …
