YOU BUILT THE FUCKING THING. Just turn it off and go away. Tada, we now have something better: no privacy-violating data at all.

Who’s forcing you to make advertisers happy? Don’t answer that, because I don’t care. You can’t pretend to be about privacy and then build things that help advertisers violate it.

While I agree that IT IS A SERIOUS CONCERN THAT AGGREGATION AND ANONYMIZATION within a single entity is a true and bad security concern you are blaming the opposition, wrongfully (imho).

The market forces advertising upon us. They step in and provide a temporarily (and not yet fully-transparent) alternative. And they are aware of said risk but still chiming in.

Their feature is adopting current practices but try to find common ground. They do not enrich this data but anonymize it fully (apparently).

The next iteration shall not include distributing this since it would strengthen advertisers I suppose. So your warning is fair but it appears to be hard to find practical common ground.

I think their intention is awesome. Enable 80% of collecting demands and open up a discourse about what should have been done beforehand (the intrusive data collection).

I once again prompt: Americans should be so fk proud of Mozilla. Inspect, Disrupt or Adapt and Be Open for Discussion.

I have no idea what I am talking about, though.

Clarify?

You suggested that one can change user agents, once (and here is room for debate) firefox is not working properly. At least this is what I carry around from our convo!

Regardless,

Yeah, because you still managed to propagate assumptions which may be hard to reason about objectively.

pocket already exists to push ads down my throat, should I wish it to ;)

That’s about available sources. But I agree that just 5% of articles within their topics do not force cookies. If Mozilla would reside in the EU Pocket would have much higher quality (since I think to recall these sources are hand picked).

More nonsense.

Is everything you put up to address my comment.

I did use a text browser. But you apparently fail their purpose. I pipe <html/> into it so that I can’t be fooled by such propaganda-spitting guys… (…).

… fascist platforms that aren’t …

You implied bad about me, so I reason this post with that.

… changing your useragent …

Sounds harder than triggering a flag for a feature which aims at serving you, the user.

Your next sentence, minus the next propaganda, makes me wonder:

This is pointless hypothetical FUD with little existing precedence (…) so you can find a way to not hold Mozilla accountable for being a shit platform that’s supporting ad culture again.

By “This” you mean the topic? I already prompted you my point of view; You didn’t address it. You falsely accuse Mozilla of pushing advertisements down ones throat. Obv. wrong. This undermines my point which I made in order to aid your shortcomings I saw.

It appears in the release notes, though. Previously you would have been tracked. Now they try to anonymously return data to the tracker. So I do not see a reason to uncheck that flag.

Admittedly I am interpreting this feature from my gut. And you provide the sources I would have asked for. Appreciated.

If a revenue stream breaks just with one browser, deny access of this browser.

This obv. would render firefox impractical over time and therefore irrelevant.

Yes, there are free websites and apps. But you may have to ask yourself why or how these sites keep going.

So while yes - ads can be shown - the user decides if he wants to engage further with the site at hand.

There are ad blockers as plugins for firefox.

My point is: We shouldnt point at mozilla and blame them. They try to align interests I suppose. And I trust them with the anonymous data - I could even check it within its sources if I wanted.

Thing is the authorities are told to use their own IT hoster. This dumbsack just - again - took money from extern.

It was also, internally, conducted that a third party governing an open-source stack ia cheaper then redmond.

Americans talking about getting ID’ed:

We use a formal form of speech when talking to people above our age. This shit reminds you fucking daily. When some fucking 20-ish person starts honoring your age and you thought you are on the same level.

Argh

Additional pupil version: Resembles the handwriting of your neighbour

Warming the key of a car in the freezing winter may have driven me to suck keys. Piercings didn’t remind me of such though.

Maybe true but your comment is humanizing “dumb” AI.

Some elaboration of mine for doing this post:

Once I helped organizing some huge event. Attending negotiations between a monopol-like company and the purchasing departments.

Attendees required to be far from certain competition and even ruling participation out under certain circumstances.

I am in favor of the doubt but there has to be more similiarities between these sponsor than to the common eye. So I posted this.

I am hiding for posting these. Will flag the post in the dawn as NSFW when everybody asleep.

Word. Running eyes wide open into oblivion. GNU is a big part why our system is as superior as it is.

If you run qemu from CLI you get a window which grabs keyboard and mouse automatically. Ctrl+Alt+G (from the top of my head) releases the input devices so you can again navigate the host. The window is otherwise a default window for you display server.

I find qemu from CLI way more transparent then these GUI-Applications since each vm is a readable, single script. So I recommend this.

Regarding installation on iMac bare metal: If the kernel supporta virtualization you can expect to work flawlessly. If you have a dedicated graphics card you can only pass this (as well as dedicated devices like hdd’s) if you main board supports IOMMU.

If it does all you need is the qemu man page to setup your vm.

Why I prefer a qemu script to any GUI alternative:

The entire script for passing RAM, GPU and a HDD is about 10 lines max. A default vm with tcg-emulation e.g. via libvirt etc. can pass 50 lines of xml easily.

I recommend giving it a try. My workflow is: Place the install script in some directory. The default run script is placed in my ~/.bin/ You can combine these scripts but I find it way simpler to separate them (you would need more elaborate options mounting devices).

Adding a terminal multiplexer. Now I understand why UNIX is an IDE.

Pff. I once saw some crack-y woman using the entire shelf of makeup in the store.

Would this again segregate the users? Some attribute on a submission which refers to a license would be nice though

I would be happy to provide my energy to microsoft’s openai /s

This would be a good approach to improve growth of the community.

Does the ActivityPub protocol support copyright for user content? E.g. an artist releases some picture and they explicitly prompt a license. Each client should accept that they are obligated to prompt this license when using the content… Something like this
