All Google has to do is stop paying Firefox for their search engine to be default and Firefox will likely file for bankruptcy or something. If Google doesn’t win their appeals and has to separate their services I’d fully expect Mozilla to die hard and fast. I’m not saying Google shouldn’t be broke up, it should. But Firefox runs off a monopoly’s charity. When 81-86% of your revenue comes from another company, they own you. If Firefox had to cut 80% of their staff and infrastructure I don’t see anyone giving them a loan to recover.

One of Epstein’s last large investments ~$40 million at the time was into Peter Theil’s company

PayPal was added as well according to the article.

It’s just not enough money to make it something I think musk would have cared about. 2.9% per domestic paypal transaction…

I imagine it’s only about 30k a year they’d make off those little donations

I mean it’s true that Venmo was not an option to donate money there prior to Trump’s presidency. He probably has nothing to do with it, but who knows. Could have been Musks idea to update payment methods, or the last admin…

Thanks yeah I just swapped it to Firefox from Cromite and it played in browser. Cromite has been great for some things and makes me jump through hoops on others it seems. The privacy settings seem so intense that everywhere I look it’s asking me if I’m human, and I’m trying to tell it I’m not a dancer so I must be. I almost moved back to Firefox the other day trying to get privacy pass working so I could bypass cloudflares human checkers, but gave up when it was only for Desktop. The search goes on

Does it hold up? Maybe I’ll try it out this weekend

South Park: Smaller, Shorter, and Cut

Normally don’t like making dick jokes, but they already laid that one out

I assume your joking, but nah. I do see the resemblance though

Weird, might be my default browser preference

There used to be a phone number you could call and it just played the song. I put it my email signature at work and forgot about it. When I got a promotion later on I found out when the guy I was supposed to be training called me cracking up saying he tried to call me from the number in my email. Oops Thankfully it wasn’t a big deal because I think I put it as Work # then Personal # and had it as the personal one

Proceeds to start wars with every ethnicity to ensure the murder bots are trained to kill all variants of the population. “Of course they have to kill little people, how else will we know that a little person couldn’t judo chop them to death.”

It’s the fact that it’s not free and open use to us, just to the AI trainers. At least that’s what the judges seem to be saying at this point.

What Asus one do you use? Anything you like about it or would rather see better done?

I thought about asking Grok to merge that photo of him in with her because the color scheme down to the buttons and belts match, but then I didnt want to figure out what the Grok site was

It’s more likely that Murdoch reached out to Trump telling him the article was being made, Trump sent Vance to go demand it wasn’t, and Vance/Murdoch didn’t have a way to stop it or didn’t come to an agreement. After all Trump knew about the article before it was published and said he told him not to publish it but said “Murdoch didn’t have the ability” to stop it before it came out.

Yeah, to psych someone out was to mentally trick them. Was going to say Gen x made a TV show called Psych, but I never watched it so I’m not sure that the name corelates here

Anytime. It was either that or go try to chase down where 2 of the chickens went to in the woods… Figure I’ll just let them turn up when it gets dark

Which like email (which is the “og” federation) you can see both responses, and see the @ will show my response came from outside

Well things like Piefed are built using a different language. But it is also a article aggregation platform. But being that it is on activitypub it should bridge and be connected. Meaning someone on Piefed will see this comment thread, respond, and never have to create an account outside their instance from their applications. We will also see their posts. As more social media platforms rise and are connected through activitypub, the user base of Lemmy doesn’t necessarily have to grow, as the content may grow through sheer connectivity.

I believe that may be what they meant.

Mastodon I think you may be able to see through Lemmy, I just can’t remember how

Subbed, I’ll try to make sure I respond/pay attention or post something once I figure out the vibe of what is supposed to be there.
