They also wanted control over mineral extraction, ffs. It's like King Ludwig and the Belgian Congo are back.

PSA: Firefox now auto-uses the XDG portal file picker

Yah, it's using the GTK dialog by default. What sort of idiot puts the cursor in the Search box by default when you're saving a file? A Gnome dev, obviously.

Firefox hardened against this fingerprint method a couple years ago reportedly.

About fucking time. I've been fixing that on every FF install I've had for years now. And every once in a while it gets reverted on me, which pisses me off. Almost as much as having to get rid of the Fedora bookmarks crap about once a year.

The fact that you can’t run through Windows setup w/o internet and an online account is absolute bullshit

I think I've installed a Fedora server in 5 minutes. It's now literally 3 clicks if you're doing it manually.

Absolutely. You would get double the dose, like skiing in a bathing suit. I've seen people come off the hill just fried because it's cool enough they don't notice getting burned to a crisp by the snow reflection.

No wonder Canada told the US to stick it where the sun don't shine

I know a lot of those were reasons given at the announcement or shortly after. Given statements made in the past, id believe the rest of them

The treasury bond mess: is this the demise of the US as a safe haven?
What fucking dumbass thought that would work? Someone that dropped out of first year econ?

Have you pirated songs during the 1980s?
Bootlegs of Hendrix and Zeppelin were floating around via sneakernet on cassette tapes. I had every one I could find.
Hell, back then Sony sold machines with 2 decks in them that would copy tapes. No other reason for them to exist than piracy but apparently there was a time when Sony wasn't the archenemy of piracy.

Did anyone else downgrade/consider downgrading?
I've had a deLonghi Magnifica for well over a decade and it's virtually no maintenance. Press a button, it spits out a pretty good cup of espresso from real beans.
The frother jug adds a level of cleaning if you insist on that. Haven't used that in years myself.

A question for GNOME/KDE users
I'll probaby move to Gnome when my hands are too arthritic to operate a mouse and keyboard properly, and I just want to punch big icons and buttons I can barely see anymore. And I'll be too far gone in dementia to customize my desktop anymore, so I won't be able to hurt myself having settings I can mess up. I'll understand where to find apps like "Mail" and "Files" instead of hard names like Thunderbird and Dolphin.
Then Gnome will be fine for a couple years just before I croak.

I have to figure that's where these people are stuck. You can't have used frontier models in anger in the last 6 months and still believe this tripe.
