the misuse of the word “propaganda”,

No I use the word propaganda because the accusations are based on falsehoods.

I’ll take that as a “Yes”.

My claim is that firefox gets worse by adding the features nobody asked for

Most of those new features are absolutely amazing, like the instant translation of almost any page,
Creating tags for images that don’t have them for blind people, is an amazing feature for blind people.
If you don’t like them you don’t have to use them. You don’t get to dictate that others shouldn’t have them on false accusations.
Some of us like a feature-full high quality browser, that respect our privacy.

their development, purely out of FOMO of the AI hypetrain,

OK and which functions are that?
You’re just riding the AI hate train and think that’s the default correct position. And sometimes it is, but not in this case.
And guess again, because Mozilla is actually using AI for things that are both useful and noninvasive.
So why don’t you piss off and go use a terminal browser instead if that’s what you want.
Alternatively there are a lot of decent open source browsers you can use, that don’t have the advanced features of Firefox.

Is this the same fast to ship but hard to maintain argument we’ve seen a thousand times already?
It’s not a paradox, but a very typical result of using “fast” solutions.

Again, propaganda against Firefox with no basis.
What is your claim? That because it uses AI, it inherently bad?
The AI functions implemented by Firefox are generally run locally. They are NOT sent to some central server, and they are NOT stored, and they are NOT used for biometrics.

You show NOTHING, and yet you act like you made a point???
You are as much part of the problem as Microsoft and Google.

Absolutely.

Except it’s not, all the complaints about Firefox are moronic, none of them have any merit.
Don’t fall for the false propaganda or morons who think they found a problem when they have no understanding of the underlying mechanisms.
I’ve seen dozens of claims about bad things Mozilla does, and every time I investigate the issue, it turns out there is nothing there, or at most some sort of misunderstanding that is blown out of proportions.

You can dislike Firefox as much as you want as a use case. But Firefox is still 100% above board with everything they do, there are zero shenanigans, but there is insane propaganda against them.

Firefox has some crazy cool new functions IMO, and they are generally completely non invasive.

Chrome is not a solution, it is a major part of the problem.
Switch to Firefox, and preferably switch to Firefox on Linux.

Zuckerberg finally got tired of the METAverse being useless and going nowhere.
But he still thinks he is some sort of visionary tech genius. And he wants to capture the next big thing before anybody else.
If he were smart he would have realized the metaverse was a stupid idea years ago. But unfortunately for him he is not very smart, he was just lucky and ruthless with facebook, and now he has become a megalomaniac drunk with the power of his billions.
It is only months ago he thought he could create strong AI by building a massive LLM thinking strong AI would be an emerging property of massively concentrated stupidity. I think he at least has realized that is not the case.

OK I honestly didn’t think of that.
Ah well jokes on them, we don’t use the TV for porn.

There is no way less than 100 pm can make sense.

In the future light may be a possibility, and light is merely a photon, and you can have photons basically follow the same paths in each direction simultaneously without colliding.
So without in any way being an expert, I would think that if light can somehow be controlled precisely enough, that would be a possibility to go way below what any atom can. Even if the paths need to be directed by atoms.
But AFAIK there is not a practical working model for that yet, although research on it has been going on for decades.

AFAIK the smallest usable atom is about 150 picometer carbon, and the smallest amount of atoms theoretically possible to make a transistor is 3, so there is (probably) no way to go below 450 picometer. There is probably also no way to actually achieve 450 picometer which is the same as 0.45 nanometer.
So the idea that they are currently going below 2nm is of course untrue, but IDK what the real measure is?

What they are doing at the leading chip manufacturing factories is amazing, so amazing it’s kind of insane. But it’s not actually 2nm.

Just for info, one silicon/silicium atom is 0.2 nm.

We use a Linux media computer for all our watching, the TV is used as nothing more than a simple monitor. So if our TV does that, jokes on them, because all the metrics they can get is when we turn it on and off and that we watch through HDMI at the TV max resolution. 🤣🤣🤣

I stopped watching traditional TV 25 years ago, 2nd best decision I ever made, after marrying my wife. 😀

Nice to see a robot that doesn’t walk like it has shit its pants. 👍

It was a smart move by Hyundai to buy Boston Dynamics.
This demo compared to Tesla is way more impressive IMO, Tesla is nowhere near this sophistication in their design.

Oculus going to Meta was a major bummer. I might pick up the frame up if the price is right and it works well.

From the Steam Frame page:

No setup required. Four high-resolution, monochrome cameras provide controller and headset tracking. Infrared LEDs on the outside make tracking great even in dark environments.

That’s brilliant. 👍

I too was excited by VR.
…
In the early 90’s.
Then nothing happened.
But THEN nothing continued to happen.
After a few decades of that I lost interest.

Yes absolutely, because they are always without DRM they have way better chance of working with wine, unfortunately one of the downsides of Proton on Steam is that WineHQ compatibility database is a shadow of its former glory today.
But GOG also occasionally have Linux versions available, and compatibility is marked with the Linux penguin with the duck beak.
Looking at the protondb for compatibility, you know it is at least theoretically possible to get it to work.

Thanks I never heard of that before. But on the other hand VR has near zero interest for me.
I have heard Steam frame before, but I thought it was some sort of joke on the frames you can have standing around to show still images. Which I find pretty stupid too.

IDK what you mean by Steam “frame”?
But admittedly I use Steam for 90% of my games.
