Who told you to tell the truth?

You had no right!

Even if they did so, isn’t Firefox entirely open source? At least their work could be forked (though I agree if they don’t have the resources, hardly anyone else could make it)

Crap, every day I see signs of how AI is polluting reality, when it could and should only be used to improve humanity.

Also, I’m starting to believe AI is effectively going to destroy or resize several jobs. For example, a friend of mine told me it asked ChatGPT to write several lines of code and it did so, maybe 85% correctly. He went through the whole code and could find mistakes and correct them. Anyhow, long story short, it would have taken his a lot of time to write them himself.

Day of the Tentacle (1993). Admittedly, it was the remastered version from 2016 which has more modern controls, but the game is exactly the same as the old one.

It was fascinating to look at it again with more mature eyes: besides the fact that it feels a bit dated as a whole, it was funny to me to notice how much humanity loves time travel stories.

It’s not that this game is doing anything different in that regard, it’s just that I thought about how much media exists on the subject (and has been very successful).

Anyhow, although dated, the game is brilliant and wholesome and made me wonder which are the best (and recent) graphic adventure games

We should all probably start donating to Firefox. Isn’t Google their main source of income?

There might come a time when they prefer to gut Firefox, forcing Mozilla to either reject uBlock Origin or die (or they could simply pull the plug on funding knowing they’ll earn more when people go back to Chrome-based browsers)

You don’t say, Sherlock

Well, “Snakes in pants” doesn’t have the same ring to it, but it’s now more real than the movie!

I finally had a minute to try it out and unfortunately it does not seem to change anything on my 2020 Mac+Intel (the GPU load skyrockets when I watch videos on YouTube)

Well, you’re right in principle, but with my (old, but current) Mac+Intel configuration Firefox is not as sleek as Chrome and also often Firefox turns the fan on while Chrome doesn’t (it may just be that Google is bricking Firefox when you’re on YouTube, for example)

Anyhow, I’m trying to use Firefox as much as I can (I’ve always done so), but it’s always been true it was a better experience to use Chrome on my setup (and I’ve never used Safari)

Edit: why the downvotes? To teach me a lesson? I said he’s right, but I do have an actual problem and cannot yet make the full move (and am going to check out the suggestions below. Thanks!)

I almost feel like there’s an answer there for you, but I can’t put my finger on it.

However, last night I had a vision about th singer of Motorhead. I think it means something…

Hey dude, I’ve been looking for you for so long, since my Dad stole your bike and that was a turning point in my life, since I made a point of stealing your son’s bike.

It is said that this will continue for generations until the seventh son of a seventh son, who’ll transform into an upside down toothless vampire who likes garlic.

In order for this prophecy to come true, please ensure all your progeny keeps buying bikes.

PS Welcome to Lemmy!

When I receive things like this, I make sure to open Gmail from within Firefox with all extensions meant to defend me (like NoScript, unlock origin, privacy badger, https everywhere) and then I hover over the gigantic button “check my activity” and see if it leads to a accounts.google.com link.

Either way, I then copy the link address without clicking on it, and open it in a private window to see what happens. If it’s a scam, the page it opens has a legit looking, but wrong google address (aka, it cannot really end with google.com). Then I just stop having fun and don’t continue nor type anything

What does it look like in your case?

You’re certainly right about observing this incongruity. It’s probably one statement that feels so obviously correct that people upvote it without even bothering to read the article.

“TurboTax must die”

That would be the perfect title of a multi billion dollar franchise about rebels from the IRS tryijg to thwart known scammers from Intuit.

I’ve seen all the movies from 1 to 7 at the theater (4,5,6 when they were remastered right before Episode 1). I like the old 4,5,6 though they’re not perfect, but they are enjoyable. I tolerated 1,2,3 and applaud their existence since they made me discover Mr Plinkett and Red Letter Media. When I saw Episode 7 I had to stop. It felt too much of an insult to the viewer’s intelligence (it wasn’t enough to have two Death Stars in Episodes 4 and 6, they had to have a Mega Super Death Star in Episode 7… But this was very much not the only awful thing about the movie). I’ve watched Episode 8 on an airplane and I still have to watch episode 9

Operation Mindcrime is a gem!

Silence!

Don’t tell the holy secret to the world!

I stopped using Windows in 2008 (juggling between a mixture of Linux and Mac OS). One of the reasons, is that at that time I thought Windows was legitimately a mess.

Over time, I thought it got a bit better when seeing it on friends’s computers.

Due to laziness, Windows 11 got installed on my office computer (which I use 1% of my time) and I thought it was honestly pretty good (as in, I never thought about switching back, but it was fine to use it when necessary).

Now that they plug in ads, I’ll certainly want to switch back /s

Very recently I started noticing that if you search anything on YouTube you don’t find what you need at all unless you add many keywords and even then, the site only gives you one coherent answer and tons of garbage you don’t need.

Mostly because, instead of giving you videos on the full set of keywords you use, it gives the first video which is based on all of them, and all subsequent videos based on just a single of such keywords, so mainly you get a lot of crap from influencers or such.

Has anyone else experienced this and knows if there is a way around it?

This game was really awesome! I spent so many hours playing online with whoever. It had several awesome arenas.

Now you make me want to play it again!
