Is this for human beings, or is it for Google to show their investors to prove that AI is totally going to revolutionize something eventually?
Screw Google either way, I’m not going to use their search engine either way, but this doesn’t feel like a product they are genuinely committed to releasing. Maybe I’m wrong, and in that case, screw them even more.
Cromite on Android checks both those boxes. Ad blocking isn’t great, but the developer isn’t Brave.
Firefox + uBlock Origin might be better if you haven’t tried that specific extension before. It works more than okay for me, but I realize YMMV and that’s especially true for non-flagships
Discord knows everything about its users. Why don’t its users get to know about the future of their app
The hardest part of using Matrix is basically everything about Matrix. They’re an unholy combination of Slack, Discord, and Signal… And not very good at any of those things
reply to the wrong post?
Eich is out of touch with reality and so are you
It definitely sounds a tad dehumanizing, and I’m not sure if that’s intentional or not…
I think this is just a CEO likening personal opinions to racial oppression. The example he chose might be a little ironic too.
Ungoogled Chromium does a really good job of taking Google out of Chrome, so far less skeezy. None of that cryptocurrency stuff either.
You can probably bribe a tech-savvy friend to do it for you with a fraction of YouTube’s yearly cost
With YouTube Lite, customers will be able to watch videos across verticals like gaming, fashion, beauty, cooking, news, and more, ad-free
Oh wow. They’ll remove some, but not all, ads!
[T]he new tier won’t offer several benefits in the full YouTube Premium ($13.99 per month) subscription, like downloads, background play, or the ability to watch music videos ad-free.
Price-gating downloads seems pretty evil. The feature doesn’t cost Google any extra money. It could even save them a little server strain if a user wants to watch the same video repeatedly. But clearly, this is where Google’s surveillance pays off: they know what people want, and they know to demand an extra $6/month for it.
For a native English speaker who understands everything he wrote: you’re 100% correct. It is a core dump.
He was discovered by 4channers and harassed up until his death. His choice of language, and mental deterioration, were due to them in no small part
It’s a bit worse than that, the term started with a slur attached
Glowie, also known as a Glown*****, is a slang term popular on 4chan’s /pol/ board used in reference to CIA or other governmental agents posing as ordinary 4chan users…
Has been since he got ousted from Mozilla for funding anti-gay stuff
You mean a company with deep ties to Elon Musk’s biggest personal enemy Sam Altman?
No way. I’m sure it will be fine, just like the CDC website
If I’m reading their financial records correctly, the year he left Mozilla was the year he was paid the most, even though he didn’t stick around for most of it. So this retelling of history is, at best, incomplete…
Maybe he’s jealous he’s not as rich and powerful as his ideological peer Marc Andreessen, who turned proto-Firefox from a university project (Mosaic) into a company (Netscape)…
Just keep in mind: your upvotes on Lemmy are visible to anybody who runs a Lemmy instance.
God help us if Elon Musk figures out how to run one.
