Okay enough nonsense babble. Goodbye.
- Comment on Firefox’s new ad tries to remind you of a time before the internet sucked. 1 week ago:
mainly because it has no dynamic filtering matrix, and it has no logger comparable to uBO’s
Still wrong.
- Comment on Firefox’s new ad tries to remind you of a time before the internet sucked. 1 week ago:
Wether an adblock is native or an extension does nothing to circumvent the native limitations of V3 that exists on all chromium browsers
That’s simply not true. MV3 literally only applies to extensions.
The only (mainstream) browser that still supports V2 is firefox
Also untrue, lots of Chromium browsers still support V2.
I can believe that the features that work on V3 encompass your personal needs
This has nothing to do with my “personal needs”, this is a technical discussion.

What “screen”?
If you don’t want to provide sources, that’s your prerogative. But don’t expect not to be treated like a fool for it.

When you mentioned “native adblock in chromium” That does exists and it requires no extension.
Yes. That’s what I’m referring to when I said 4 times that it’s not an extension.
But they are never as fully featured as the full Ubo extension
But it is.

To delay piracy.

I don’t know what that has to do with the conversation. For the third time, we’re talking about a native implementation. Not an extension.

Go on and…back up the thing you said with some facts somewhere?

Google funds Firefox so it has their hands on it anyway. And Mozilla has proven to be a poor steward of Firefox anyway. I’m just not so sure one is better than the other anymore.
- Comment on Firefox’s new ad tries to remind you of a time before the internet sucked. 1 week ago:
It’s not impossible. mv3 pertains to extensions and, as I said, it’s not an extension, it’s built into the browser itself.
- Comment on Firefox’s new ad tries to remind you of a time before the internet sucked. 1 week ago:
They do. It works exactly the same.
- Comment on Firefox’s new ad tries to remind you of a time before the internet sucked. 1 week ago:
Several Chromium browsers have native adblocking built in at this point. No extensions required.
- Comment on Some iPhone Duo displays are cracking, seemingly all in the same way 1 week ago:
The displays on folding phones are notoriously soft. So soft that you can easily scratch them with a fingernail. Their inherent fragility combined with limited usefulness and wild pricing has kept me far away from them.
Their utility is limited by the applications they’re used for. Look at the original Fold. It was “candy bar” shaped. Crazy tall when folded. But this meant media only consumed \~60% of the display when opened anyway, so largely useless for that application.
We’re seeing a clear trend toward wide phones on the market now, but that leads to crazy wide displays when folded, which means developing a new UI to do something with all that space.
- Comment on Some iPhone Duo displays are cracking, seemingly all in the same way 1 week ago:
I think your memory might be fuzzy. Samsung had to delay the rollout of the new 1st gen Fold because of hardware issues that showed their faces before they even sold them to customers.

- Comment on Tim Sweeney Is Still Crying About Steam AI Disclosures 1 week ago:
Sue. My point is they’re not doing it out of the good of their heart. And their doing it in lieu of actually making it a good platform to buy from.
- Comment on Tim Sweeney Is Still Crying About Steam AI Disclosures 1 week ago:
They do that to try to gain marketshare. They should try to just stop being shitty instead and improve their client. And get off Xitter.

The only reason Trump loves it is because it’s propping up our entire economy.
- Comment on Tim Sweeney Is Still Crying About Steam AI Disclosures 1 week ago:
Age ratings tell parents what’s in a game so they can make informed decisions for their kids. These AI statements are just as partisan as mandatory political essays or forcing developers to list their voting history to drive cancel campaigns and public struggle sessions.
Absolutely fuck this fucking guy.
- Comment on Outrage after Meta suspends No Kings Instagram account during protests 2 weeks ago:
There’s nothing wrong with being on every platform. Although I would recommend using corporate platforms to steer people towards free ones. But they don’t even seem to be on any of the free ones.
- Comment on Xbox Nano Controller announced 3 weeks ago:
I totally get the pushback on the “you will own nothing” but also a lot of times, I don’t want to. I spend $1500 on a new PC every ~5 years and spend a bunch of money on games I don’t play, and miss out on others that I don’t want to spend the money on. I almost never go back and play those games ever again, other than maybe the top 1%.
In theory I might explore an option like this, but in reality I have experimented with it and it’s completely unplayable.
- Comment on Xbox Nano Controller announced 3 weeks ago:
The explanation is that XBOX is basically doing the opposite of Steam. They’re transisitoning from a hardware platform to a software platform. “Everything is an XBOX” refers to 2 things:
- Xbox on PC. No more dedicated hardware. As we’ve seen with the XBOX Ally, it’s just a Windows PC and Xbox is just a game mode.
- XBOX cloud gaming. Don’t have enough power to run your own XBOX PC? Stream games from a server.
I don’t really know why this isn’t very clear to everyone at this point.

Interesting! Thanks

Well that’s an interesting theory, do you have a source for that? Im not seeing anything in search.

Yeah, they whine and complain and keep fucking buying it.

Someone like Walmart would just stop carrying their product if they’re getting a raw deal out of it
But they’re already getting screwed. Better a $10 price increase than no product at all?
