TFM isn’t worth the R. It doesn’t describe failure states or bugs in a way that a normal user understands or can work with. Either it works perfectly, or there’s basically no way to figure out exactly what went wrong and how.

I’m glad everyone is getting away from the Apple tax.

I mean mainly fighting against the standardization of DRM, or tolerating anything that allows corporations to demand their “features” (anything that removes privacy) become standard. The difference between a good browser and a bad one shouldn’t be whether you can finagle a Widevine license for cheap.

Or, more generally, they should be actively blocking anything that would benefit corporate interests over the rights of the people. But since the Linux Foundation threw in with Google, Microsoft is a Google client, and Mozilla Corp runs on Google money, the W3C has been a joke for years. Mozilla has made themselves irrelevant, since they were just seen as a means to prevent the Google antitrust cases.

Hopefully this breakup of Google, and the loss of the money, will get the CEO (currently earning 1% of the total of Mozilla’s money - no one person should do that unless there’s less than 100 people), and that whole bunch to leave so that volunteers can take over.

Maybe, just as a crazy thought here, jwz was right. Mozilla and Firefox exist for 2 purposes - to build the standard reference browser, free of corporate crud (like, say, Google WebExtensions); and to be an absolute attack dog against ridiculous corporate desires.

The boom in commercial technology, the deprecation of print media, and a lack of old-fashioned parenting that emphasizes reading and critical thinking. That’s what happened.

Making sure to keep it legal, right?

Let’s stick with Project Gutenberg - Public domain ebooks and other media, spanning centuries. They’re incredibly important for keeping our literary past alive.

I might have more later.

She’s about to be so fired. I wish her the best.

Boy got so wholesome he did a Mario 64 triple jump because of this girl. I wish them the best.
