Libewrolf is a FF fork, Vivaldi is a chromium one. So they inherit all the differences between the two (edit: including the limit/support for extensions)

For a FF-based browser, I've chosen Waterfox (which works perfectly with uBO) and for chromium, I use Vivaldi.

You need to enable JavaScript to run this app.

That's not true. I just need to click the 'x' next to the tab. Why should I be bothered with waiting for some JS to be able to read text?

They are one of several signs of LLM writing. That said if you've always used them then you do you

Not the person you replied to but allow me to chime in: I've been using em dashes for decades and I will not stop using them because AI has started playing with them—no more than I will stop writing because AI can write too ;)

It depends who you ask my reasons not to date:

  • I would tell you it's because my spouse and I have been together for almost 30 years and, well, I have yet to find someone else able to make we want to engage in anything potentially meaningful.
  • I imagine some people would say it's because I'm getting too old (and bald, and too grumpy) to be allowed to have fun, or just that I'm too ugly.
  • Finally, some extremely fascinating persons, may tell you I don't date because I'm a giant lizard wearing a human costume that is afraid my true nature would be revealed if I ever were to become intimate with another human being. Obviously, if it was still among us, my pet hamster would tell you that's non-sense :p

Nice!

Have you considered adding I want a community driven distro (as opposed to distros like Fedora or Suse)

I tested it and was surprised to not be offered Mint (the one I'm using and that fits me rather well) just because of the 'proprietary drivers' option. I checked that I wanted to use 'Free software as much as possible' but in doing so, in my mind at least, the whole sentence had equal importance, aka: I'll go free as much as I can provided I can make my computer work. Maybe it could be worth considering detailing a little more what the choice are?

I miss seeing (a lot) more young people reading books ;)

minding my own sheet, obviously.

/me trying to make humour in English is a whole other level of wtfuckery :p

You lost me at 'Fuck'. As a potential new member, how could I be willing to engage in a community putting forward rudeness?

I would suggest you may want to consider to calmly explain the issue at hand (my Lemmy feed is tightly curated and I do not think I noticed much of what you mention), without insulting anyone and without using doubtful dirty tricks to grab people's attention, maybe sharing some real world examples?

It's still hard for me to believe MS Recall is a thing, and not some not funny prank.

But the real difficult thing to understand for me is that people are not rushing to remove that huge pile of shit, this large US spyware that's called Windows from what, at least for now, is still legally their PC.

Oh yeah, of course. Silly me. We have multiple of those too in various spots in the city, there are a couple really close from our place. I sometimes leave books there but seldom find any I feel like reading ;)

That's a good habit ;)

King has written many great books, 'It' is not one of my favorite of King, but it was good nonetheless! Maybe I should re-read it nowadays to see if I would have a different opinion (I read it many, many years ago).
