I don’t understand why you’d want an AI browser to begin with. Most web tasks aren’t hard.

Steam and Heroic have been working fine for me for playing games on Linux.

You and someone else got hung up on the specific example. I’m sure I could have come up with a better example where the raw and nice version conveyed the same amount of information.

Freedom of speech doesn’t mean a guaranteed audience or platform.

You can write whatever you want. No one is required to read it. No one is required to host it. If they do read it, they can say whatever they want about it.

This is the fediverse. You can host your own instance and say whatever you want. No one else is required to federate with you.

If you post something and people say it’s garbage, that’s not your freedom of speech being quashed. You spoke. Now they are using their freedom of speech in response.

There are many ways to express any given truth, or facets of the truth.

“That dress makes you look fat”

“That dress doesn’t flatter you”

Guy is a dangerous idiot. You should always use protection.

I think I had a small amount of alcohol at weddings and new years celebrations when I was a teenager.

My parents don’t have the healthiest relationship with alcohol. it’s not the worst, but it never seemed cool or fun. It was just dad having a few cheap beers while watching the game. They never told me not to drink, either. No “forbidden fruit” allure.

I don’t intentionally consume caffeine. No coffee. Only herbal tea. No energy drinks. There might be some in chocolate, but I don’t eat much chocolate.

When I was a kid my whole family were like coffee fiends. Couldn’t get going without a cup. I never wanted to be like that.

That doesn’t really address people betting on horrible things and then making them happen.

Also “it will just go underground” is still kind of a win? The average person isn’t going to navigate sketchy underground arrangements, but they’ll find a slick website with good SEO.

All tools are not equally safe nor should they all be publicly available.

A chainsaw is a tool that you might cause harm with if you use it in stupid ways. We don’t give chainsaws out to children. We don’t use chainsaws for cutting dinner.

There are human elements to the problem but that’s not a big reveal.

These things should probably be banned, and Facebook dissolved with its leadership punished for their crimes.

Hm maybe I’ll try that. Looks like there’s an android version

Firefox. It’s fine. The ai stuff is concerning , but nothing’s caused me enough pain to switch yet

Seems fair. Was a pretty big fuck up. Might deter others from making similar fuck ups.

That was always a bad idea and feeds my mild Cassandra complex.

No government should be relying on private platforms like that.

The suits at Microsoft are out of their fucking minds.

Yes. They are stupid and don’t deserve their huge paychecks.

They could’ve done basically nothing. Maybe security updates. And they would’ve had a decent brand that kept bringing in money. Their leadership is worse than doing nothing. A dog would make a better ceo.

I would be more than willing to carry around my own spoon, fork, and more, if it meant less plastic crap everywhere

I like the idea. I don’t want to use facebook or similar, but that’s where stuff like “BuyNothing” is most active.

Unfortunately, I don’t know much about self hosting (beyond what I’ve picked up working in software development) so I don’t see myself running one of these myself. I’d probably use it if it came to my neck of the woods (NYC)

You can also buy drm free music from sites like Bandcamp. I don’t feel bad buying from smaller groups. Joyride! might actually notice the $10 from me buying their new album.

They really think we’re stupid. Unfortunately, they may be mostly right.
