What would we call those posts? Like what community would they go in?

I don’t trust anything built on Chromium. I know it’s technically open source but I don’t trust anything owned by Google. (Tho this doesn’t matter as much for the iOS browser since Apple forces everything to use WebKit)

Brave doesn’t use Google telemetry, it is not telemetry free and it is sending data back to Brave.

But mainly, the guy who founded Brave Software and their investors are all fucksticks and I will do everything in my power to avoid giving them a dime.

Brendan Eich is against LGBT+ rights and his company Brave Software is supported by Peter Thiel.

Brave has their own ad software and they do their own shady crypto non-sense.

I pay for Kagi search so the Orion browser was a natural step for me. Orion browser has zero ads, zero telemetry and no AI. Plus I can use Firefox and Chrome extensions.

I’m not saying Orion/Kagi is perfect by any means. Sometimes the extensions are wonky and Orion doesn’t work with local network devices. But they don’t own an ad company on the side like Firefox and Brave.

Kagi was funded by VCs so it’s a matter of time until they start squeezing, but right now, I trust them more than I would trust Brave.

I’ve been using Orion instead.

If you pay me, I will listen to all the daft punk so you don’t have to.

I’m happy they are passionate about their beliefs, at least.

Yeah. I get it. I feel that way too. Especially, if you fall into a minority group, it’s a scary time to be.

I hope so! I suspect the hostility will pass when American politics becomes less life or death.

It wasn’t always like this. I feel like it’s really been in the last 3ish months. Hopefully it’ll pass.

I kinda feel like Lemmy has been much more hostile recently. I don’t know if it’s bots or if I just post bad comments, but it makes me want to go back to just being a lurker.

EDIT: I was waiting for it to happen in this thread. Try to be positive and say something nice about the angry people, get downvotes. Haha. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Whoa this is weird. I might know the guy in this photo. What is this from? I pulled my my old coworker’s Facebook page and it looks a lot like him, right down to the grey in the beard.

English as my first language and I can’t get that one right either.

No one can.

Not everything on Amazon ships in two days. In the picture, the dates vary quite a bit.

Amazon is just a drop shipping marketplace where everything comes direct from the exact same warehouse in China.

You aren’t wrong, but I think web apps would have been more prevalent because you could develop for a single platform (browser) and it would work on most any device that has a browser.

If companies, like Apple didn’t block Progressive Web Apps in order to force App Store usage, I’d disagree, but we just don’t live in that world.

I assume we are talking original release and not a remake? These are the games I never stopped jumping in and out of.

• Fez (X360 2012)
• Rock Band/Guitar Hero (Multi-System)
• Skyrim (Multi-System 2011)
• FTL (PC 2012)
• Civilization V (PC 2010)
• Stardew Valley (Multi-System 2016)

Recently, I’ve been playing Top Gear (SNES 1992).

For many of these, I’m not playing on the original system. I’m playing a port. Fez wasn’t ported to modern consoles, but I play on my phone.

Hell, I played Skyrim on an Amazon Echo. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

In the grand scheme of society, it’s kinda bonkers how there was such a short window to go to learn something like Web Development and get a job before it started being replaced. Basically a job that existed for ~30 years and won’t be around much longer.

(Yes I know AI is dumb, but it doesn’t matter if C-Suite execs think it can do it, they’ll replace jobs with AI)

Me over here who just liked problem solving and making things.

People don’t want to give their dog heart worm/flea protection because they are worried it leads to seizures.

I had to explain why they should continue to do it so many times on Facebook. The benefits out way the risk by such a great magnitude that it should be a no-brainer.

You’re the real hero, here.

i always think that when i see it too. I hate that the logos are so similar
