I’m sticking with Floorp for now. Faster development doesn’t mean it will be sustainable, but we’ll see. Or necessarily that all feayures may be good. More iant better. Brave and Opera GX have a bunch of features too.

But I’m using Firefox and Floorp as a variant because I want something that gets fundamentals right. And if Zen becomes huge, great.

“Listen, making the entire market dependent on one corporate benefactor just sothey aren’t a 100% monopoly and only a 99% one is important”

Jesus Christ Mozilla, do you hear yourself?

Which type of Manta did you go with. They apparently have quite a few variants, and I might invest in one for my next flight.

Man, as someone who’s cross discipline in my former companies, the way people treat It, and the way the company considers IT as an afterthought is just insane. The technical debt is piled high.

That seems very odd to me. My installs never got that bad. Not calling you a liar, just saying your out of the box experience was way shittier than mine.

I agree on the ads and bundled services, but the “windows is slow” stuff is horseshit. A tight build of Linux boots more quickly no doubt, but a fresh Win10 or 11 install, even with bloat, is up in under 30 seconds, and runs swiftly out of the box. This isn’t “slow” by any definition.

Again, let’s hate the other shit, let’s hate on that together.

Literally why I won’t touch most of them. At least shit like Helldivers is instanced, mostly designed around rando play, and Co OP encouraged. I hate all the other live service crap.

Gotham Knight was another where it was like… Almost good? But they made it an RPG with levels. Nah.

This is a total win for Europeans.

Bring more Europe to the US. Lol

I stl don’t understand how this is better/different than EmuDeck, a project I heard much more about.

Regulate them!

Yea, that’s what I was saying. But if you wanted a national level of this, having ISPs setup a “kid access” subnet that just runs on a separate Wifi SSID would make this idea easier for the non tech savvy.

Bonfires are not fireworks. Guy Fawkes Night is infamously filled with tons of bonfires.

So you use SharePoint as well? Hahaha

Make the children internet token based for kids, use a yubikey or something (no password to learn), and leave the regular internet as is. Make ISPs provide families with kids access to both, either via subnet or dedicated hardware.

From there just have policy to not give the unrestricted network access to kids. Aka parenting. Public institutions like libraries can have most open terminals on the “safenet” and limited public access to the unfiltered net.

For a “poor man’s version” of this concept, you could do a pi-hole sub-network for home use, but the internet elsewhere is still the internet.

That’s one possible idea anyways, and a damn sight better than porn credits.

The fact you described it as “the show” is absolutely the problem in a nutshell. This isn’t a film, or a film series, it’s a fucking commitment. At least with Avatar, they’re years apart and the most visually stunning graphics on the planet. Or with LOTR these are epic stories and sagas.

What is the saga of the American rancher Mr. Costner? I need to understand.

Unironically: child safe websites should be under a separate DNS provider from your ISP, provided via a separate ISP router or modem. Setup a separate national level routing.

Seriously. Kids get curated internet only, adults get the firehose.

The idea of porn credits and voluntarily giving the government a list of everything you look at is utter insanity.

I just learned that it’s a four part film series.

3 hours each

It ls based on the westward expansion of America, a period that is covered to death in media already.

It presents no unique or compelling twist or angle on this in the trailers.

It presents not amazing visual that can only be enjoyed in a theater instead of watching this at home like the History Channel.

I like Kevin Costner, I like westerns, I like history. I pretty much am the target audience. But when I was it was going to be at least 12 hours of content spread over the next 2-3 years, and I still had no hook as to why I should watch this over The Last of the Mohicans or Tombstone or any number of narratives in similar settings. It all feels incredibly low energy.

Giant ceremonial bonfires /= fireworks, for one. Tons of random shit can go into bonfires beyond just wood, the wood is of incredibly differing quality and chemical treatments, and bonfires by their nature a low to the ground and intended to last for at minimum an hour or they’re not worth making.

This is not the same discussion as fireworks. It’s also still not long term effects, as the site warns of poor air quality in the days that follow the giant bonfires if there is no wind or weather, but it does dissipate either way, not that this event gives everyone cancer or something.

The question was about fireworks. And yea, fireworks are an afterthought still. Compared to Guy Fawkes Night maybe even more of an afterthought. Guy Fawkes Night and 4th of July still hardly register on the global scale of CO2 and GHG outputs.

It’s not nothing, but 1% goes to show just how much is no5 made by the giant 1 day full of sky explosions, and how likely 70-80% is from transport and energy sector.

Eliminating all fireworks from earth and banning them tomorrow would have a near 0 impact on anything, and be completely erased if a coal plant runs an extra day or two.

Fireworks are like. 000000000000001% of a concern for GHG.

You shut down a coal plant for 1 days because you switched to solar temporarily and you probably offset the output.
