god i can't wait until 26.04.. or maybe i'll switch to nixos instead, we'll see :p

same is true for kubuntu release upgrades fun fact 😑 luckily the fix is easy but still annoying

I made a mod that replaces cliffracers with Thomas the Tank Engine. I am incapable of learning lessons whenever it involves corporations, because I fundamentally do not view toy company CEOs or media CEOs as people.

there's also librewolf and waterfox, which are both forks (versions not directly by mozilla) of firefox and i believe remove it all too

because they're based on firefox, everything should still work the same (minus the ai) -- but if firefox goes under, then so too do they unfortunately

yeah.. a bunch of the AI stuff *can* technically all be disabled by going into about:config and searching for "browser.ml" and setting anything with enabled to false, but it still feels bad :(

they seem to be going all in on AI 😞 they've made two separate posts about it recently..

the first one was about it in firefox: connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussio...

the second is about how they want to "shape" AI: blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/r...

oh mozilla.. what ever are we going to do with you :(

unless that counts idk

less tea, and more me being a bit of a hypixel / hytale hater i suppose :p

like idk. the server with the monopoly on minecraft minigames and that is still stuck on a version of the game that released over a decade ago being the ones bringing competition is deeply ironic to me

also ignores the *countless* other indies that occupy the space, but i digress :p

i find it somewhat ironic that the game people are excited about bringing competition to minecraft was created (and i suppose now being developed again) by a studio offshoot of a minecraft server that hasn't meaningfully changed in 7+ years

think i'm going to reprioritize this one

the hardware alone is hella impressive, but i think the thing with quite possibly the most far reaching impact is the x86 -> arm translation. feels like another proton moment tbh

i'm *super* curious to see how / if it runs on apple silicon at all :O

valve coming in from the top rope god damn

speaking of branding though, i do still really miss the "Moz://a" branding. it was a really clever little logo that i wish was still used in at least a few places! :(

(also just now learning it directs to their website?? brilliant)

....ok mozilla, you guys get another chance, but if you ruin it we're taking kit with us!

oh my god i need one of these

(i do apologize if you already knew this, but this account is bridged over from mastodon, so you have to follow @ap.brid.gy in order for Tris to see stuff from here on bsky!! only saying bc i don't see it as a mutual follower haha

also your reply may need reposted when you do, idk if it backfills!)

i normally like updating packages, but seeing 'libnvidia' in the list makes me reluctant, bc there's a decently high chance something breaks in an annoying ass way

listen to @lostterminal, it's great!

(i have finally caught up)

can do it here at least.. maybe i'll add this one to my neverending list of projects :P

i realise this is totally antithetical to the model that social companies have but like. i really think it would go a long way sometimes to just quickly catch up on what the people i gaf about are saying and then fill my brain with my own static instead of algorithmic slop static

sometimes i wish i could have like. an rss-like feed for posts from people i follow across platforms :p

on the one hand: if they wanted to push migrations, this is a pretty good way of doing it

on the other: maybe that's too much credit to give

I dunno, I just want right and wrong to matter again.

kind of terrifying this is even a concern you need to have 😞

call that mimi's delivery service

yeahhh.. in addition to their new ai age verification shit they're supposedly testing 😞

idrk why the motive behind this one is tho, saw a theory that was "they're doing it to get people used to the look of ai videos" but that doesn't make much sense to me so 🤷
