We should treasure it and protect it at all cost. This is is also for historical purpose.

Sounds like Russia is a little on cash…

They get sponsored to be the default search engine. Firefox developers cost money and being non-profit relies on dontations and sponsorship

While they are at it take a look at car manufacturers too.

Yepp those are for sure valid points. Seems that it’s not such a “high” prio for our Trump lover.

As much as I hate Elon for all the shit he says and does, but it also shows the sanctioning for stuff like this is not waterproof. These units can be bought by company X in country X and sells it to company Y in country Y who is friendly with Russia. Also depending where they get launched from (for example from occupied Ukraine) it makes it also difficult to tell “friend” from “foe”. Can that be prevented ? Probably, but it’s not as straightforward as armchair generals may make it sound.

Now, could spaceX do something more about this ? Most likely. But that is resources you need to put on this, which is not profitable. So long story short. It’s more than Elon bad here.

Kind of odd that some of these x650e boards are so extremely expensive (like MSI’s MEG godlike and Asus ROG Cross hair) that you are better off with a threadripper workstation board and CPU.

I still don’t get why you would want to pay for xitter.

Yes, but that has its limitations to my knowledge. One of them is streams will be at a lower 720p. To tinker around it will work, but it will not be a fire and forget solution

I drive Arch btw™

He is a supply chain guy. He did a tremendous job on making sure you need for every single thing on an apple device either an adapter or a repair that cost more than the device itself. Since Tim took over, the only noticable succeful disruption from a technological perspective is Apples M silicon. The rest is old wine in new bottles. For the rest its upselling and people that are crazy enough to put 1200 dollar/euro down for a phone or an 8gbyte RAM Mac. And to be straight, I have no problems with that. But there might be a time where Apple ends up in that same corner.

As much as I am an AMD fanboy, we need Intel in this game or AMD will turn into Intel from a few years ago.

This happens when a MBA CEO ran an engineering company. Where did we hear that before?.. Something something Boeing.

You don’t get the most valuable company by selling a SSD. So, yeah a new Mac of course.

Opens chrome on a 8GB Mac. Sees lifespan of SSD being reduced by 50%. After 2-3 years of heavy usage SSD starts to get errors. Apple solution: buy a new one. No wonder they are 2nd/3rd wealthiest company on the planet.

Well I will sound like an old bore but throughout the nearly 20 years Firefox is out I never looked at anything else. Seen the rise and fall of Internet Explorer seeing the rise and fall of chrome.

Even Firefox in its dreadfully slow era (2010-2016) it did not made me change. And let me be clear Firefox is far from perfect. But for my use cases (privacy and security balance over certain conveniences) I would not change for any commercially backed Browser.

Moral of the story. It’s better to donate to Mozilla and enjoy the freedom of your browser than giving yourself in on the erratic behavior of the big tech companies.

You gotta be a special kind of sad to DDoS archive.org…

The fact that a single company is higher valued than the entire car market should ring all alarm bells. Because afaik is Mercedes already ahead of Tesla in regarding (autonomous) self driving. But don’t quote me on it.

Waiting for tsla stock to go up now…
