That should be higher up on the page, since that’d be the primary value of that service.

Honestly I’m surprised Elon hasn’t killed the SLS and given SpaceX that contract; it’s one of the few things that would both benefit him and increase the efficiency of the government. He’s probably scared of Boeing suiciding him.

Yeah, I read that and I think it’s a weak justification.

And they had this revelation and newfound sense of caution immediately after their main source of income was jeopardized? And they made this change at the exact same time they started forcing users to give them a worldwide commercial license to everything you enter through Firefox? Sure, Jan.

Apple is already displacing Google’s monopoly.

…The reason being that they can’t legally claim they don’t sell your data.

The fact that they think they need to cover their ass about selling user data is concerning enough.

I think most people would be happy if the Mozilla CEOs “only” got a few hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. The current pay is literally millions.

I think they just got too comfortable with the Google money coming in.

Apple has the funds to maintain WebKit by themselves, and they wouldn’t want it to be cross-platform.

I don’t think Mozilla had any involvement in Servo.

The problem with Mozilla is that their route back to greatness would require consolidation that cannot and will not happen due to lack of trust and diverging goals.

I completely disagree; any capital available to Mozilla would be funneled into all the wrong places. Proton would go bankrupt for the sake of Mozilla’s AI and CEO bonuses.

Firefox should split from Mozilla like Thunderbird did, and only then consider partnering with another project. Actually, a partnership between Firefox and Thunderbird would be great.

X’s official support channel, which has been dormant since August, has so far remained silent on the outage, but one user asked Grok—X’s chatbot that provides AI summaries of news—what was going on, and the chatbot echoed suspicions about the DDOS attack while raising other theories.

That’s not how LLMs work… Why is Ars endorsing that brain-rot?

The firings will continue until quality improves

I’m still pissed off about how LTT reacted to that. The warning literally told you not to do it, you did it anyway, and somehow that’s Linux’s fault? That’s like eating one of those silica packets that says “DO NOT EAT” and then blaming the manufacturer.

My mom needs a computer for work, but she keeps bludgeoning people to death with it. What should I do?! Linux must have a solution for this!

I much prefer that to Apple’s approach of “you probably didn’t want to do that, so you can’t”. I’ve literally had to boot into Linux to fix things on Macs. Fucking infuriating.

Every day, for weeks, my Apple Watch notifies me about available updates when I put it on after charging. Why didn’t you install the updates while you were charging, then?! It only stops when I put it back on the charger and manually tell it to update.

My aunt joined a humanist church, which is basically “religion” for atheists. It was literally just Sunday mass without the worship.

Either you believe what he says, or you don’t.

That’s a false dichotomy. 10% of what Trump says is true but 90% of what he says is insane, so 9% of what Trump says should legitimately concern everyone. Because we don’t know which 10% is true, we have to be concerned about everything he says.
