Same, workspaces are great!
Exhibit B: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/legal/terms/firefox/

I don’t agree to this as written; and I am not inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt given Exhibit A. I think an argument could be made that selling my data to advertisers would help me “experience” and “interact” with online content. Perhaps it would be a difficult argument, perhaps not. I think skepticism is warranted.
Firefox has struggled to find a profitable business model outside of Google paying to be the default search engine, and it looks like these changes are a pivot to address this. I don’t think it will be good for users.
It’s still Firefox, so it’s the same. I installed uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, no different there.
I’m trying https://zen-browser.app/ now. It’s an open source fork of Firefox. The UI is much changed: vertical tabs and workspaces. It was a bit of a shock, but it’s growing on me.
Librewolf has some trouble with some websites. For example, it won’t load one of my own that makes a GRPC request over TLS, stating that the certificate issuer is unknown despite it being the same certificate used on the accepted-as-secure page the request is made from.
I’ve seen this sentiment, but I don’t think it’s credible. I don’t think we should normalize legalese that explicitly enables bullshit; it’s not like it couldn’t be written any other way. It’s written in English, though it has legal intent, and we have words and phrases to clarify such things.
I do not know Idaho, but I agree it is an awful reason. It is soul wrenchingly stupid. It has reduced my faith in humanity and decreased my fear of a comet.
It’s Olive Garden
Someone in my family wants this to happen because it will make travelling to their favourite restaurant easier.
At the present spot price, that’s worth about $100k, I think?
Based on this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_wealth_per_adult
It would put you at just a bit above the average wealth per adult for the entire world, but also just about at the median wealth for North America which has an average weath per adult of 500k. Averages are wonky when some people have SO MUCH.
This will require strengthening domestic manufacturing, […] develop[ing] workforce resilience, domestic capacity and innovation right here at home. […] The solution lies in strengthening Canadians’ right to repair the products and devices we rely upon.
I found this overly strong at first, but it holds water. If there’s a market for it that means a domestic capacity for it and related technical, manufacturing-adjacent things.
DIY repair has saved me a lot of money and headache, and saved a lot of stuff from landfill. It should be an easy sell, but with everything going towards a subscription model - overtly or covertly - we aren’t supposed to own things anymore. I would expect the balance of lobby money to be on the other side of this issue every time.
$11 is wild for all that!
The New Order was enjoyable vengence porn against Nazis, it’s a good time; maybe I need that again!
I’ve been playing the heck out of Harebrained Schemes’ BattleTech; I haven’t binge-played like this in a long time. It never feels fair; 2-1 odds is typical, but it’s always possible. Pretty satisfying to overcome unfair situations. Makes me feel smart and capable! Plus, jumpy stompy robots!

I’m too early in the game to know this well, but I feel the lack of mod support. This feels like a game that would really thrive with community support, but they have no plans on supporting mods or open sourcing it. They are currently working on a new project that they haven’t elaborated on yet.
Still, I got this game for $14 and if I can find some people to play with I’m absolutely going to get my money’s worth - this kind of game just doesn’t exist with this level of depth. I love the technical detail of how the ship works on and how the systems interact with each other.
I just got this game and I’m having a blast, this is the style of game I’ve been hungry for for a long time.
500 internal errors in console, video doesn’t play
I agree, but it should still be retired regardless of intended usage - history matters; we don’t have to mistakenly other people to show off cool screenshots
the cheeto of damacles swings, and we fear it not
