What in the name of fuck is that bill. That’s one of the worst pieces of legislation I’ve seen in a longer while. Companies and open source communities will immediately catch that an employee is trying to sabotage their system on behalf of the government by means of code review and version control history. The programmer will be questioned, then likely fired or ostracized in case of open source works and the code will hit the bin. This idiotic… thing will accomplish nothing but harm their own citizens who will now be treated like potential therats and denied employment opportunities.

On a funnier note, every time Australia introduces some horrible tech-related bill I remember this beautiful clip summarising just how well politicians understand technology.

“A bit” is an understatement, that title is complete clickbait garbage

I understand your point but that is the worst attempt at discussion I’ve ever seen lmao

“Too lazy to formulate an argument, look one up yourself”

Sadly yeah

They won’t keep your cookies or SessionStorage but extensions will stay on across all containers. If you wanna test websites in a clean environment you should probably create a new profile or download another Firefox modified for developers (can’t have enough foxes in your computer amirite) altogether

For what it’s worth Brave and Opera do extend the base Chromium functionality quite a bit. No idea why they couldn’t have done it with FF/Gecko though.

I just recently found out that Americans do in fact have data caps even on landline. Recommend watching this episode of Patriot Act, it made me realize just how shitty ISPs are in America, all in the name of profit.

The only thing ISPs adjust is your bandwidth, offices with many computers need more and have to pay up.

And yeah, @[email protected]. Unlimited means unlimited. Go download your… whatever it is you’re downloading.

Mine has a choice of picking Raw, JPEG or HEIF, probably just a vendor dependent feature difference

according to evolution itself it would be a crab

the existence of a filesystem in the human body implies being able to mod and recompile body parts as you see fit

Yeah, that’s the reason. Trans girls just often happen to be good at IT and leftist.

the ml as Marxist-Leninist was probably just a coincidence, the real reason is that Mali (.ml) domains used to be free

California needs to burn. For millennia, First Nations people oversaw controlled burns in the forests they lived, played and worked in. These burns cleared out underbrush, saw off sick trees, and created canopy openings that admitted sunlight to help quicken new growth. The importance of fire to healthy renewal is testified to by the regional trees that can only reproduce through fire, including the state’s iconic giant redwood.

Centuries ago, European settlers dispossessed the state’s First Nations of their ancestral lands and banned “cultural burning,” declaring war on both indigenous people and fire. This was the start of a long period of firelessness, during which time ever-more-heroic measures have been deployed to keep fire at bay.

This is a vicious cycle: massive fire suppression efforts creates the illusion that people can safely live at the wildland–urban interface. Taken in by this illusion, more people move to this combustible zone. The presence of these people in the danger zone militates for more extreme fire-suppression, which makes the illusion all the more tempting. Yielding to temptation, more people move to the fire zone.

But the opposite of controlled burns isn’t no burns, it’s out-of-control burns: wildfires.

Fires that erase whole towns. Fires that burn unchecked. Anything that can’t go on forever will eventually stop. Fire debt mounts. When the interest payments get too high to bear, we go into chaotic default.

California needs to burn. It needs an orderly bankruptcy. It needs to revive the controlled “good fire” that kept the land safe and healthy and allowed humans and forests to peacefully co-exist.

The alternative to letting California burn in an orderly, controlled fashion is for California to burn anyway. It’s wildfire. It’s tragedy and destruction.

Social media needs to burn.

From its first days, the consumer computing and networking sector was synonymous with explosive growth.

Companies would spring up out of nowhere and grow to impossible scale overnight. The source of this rapid corporate gigantism was no mystery: it came from network effects.

Cat toy? Probably not. Stronger lasers can absolutely mess up the pilot’s eyesight and put you in jail, but a low-powered one is unlikely to cause harm. Still, never shine anything at an airplane.
