Well LoL has no official Linux support, so a low current number of users is no indication of the size of the potential Linux player base.

There is one important difference when it comes to what rhetoric is suitable between France and Russia, I think. Russia has control over the narrative within it’s land, about the media and limits free speech. If Russia doesn’t follow up on it’s threads, there are no internal consequences and externally, Russia might lose some credibility but still say an unpredictable danger. I think France has a lot more to loose when not following up on their threads / red lines. In terms of diplomacy with other countries, internally with the government appearing weak to its citizens and towards Russia too.

Actually, what is the reason that Firefox seems to be preferred over Chromium? Is it the license? The control Alphabet has over it?

One has to agree that there is a lot more money poured into chromium, the code is more modern and easier embeddable, it is more feature-complete.

Though, it’s good to have two independent browser engines and a non-profit (+for-profit subsidiary) dedicated to a free, open, user-focussed browser.

Though OPs example is easier for the general population to understand.

Though some streaming sites are torrents in the background.

Though misandry and mysogny often occur together and mirror each other. So it’s valid to cry about both when someone talks about “woman and children” are grouped together as especially vulnerable groups that need additional protection.

Kurzgesagt

As a quite thin guy, I dressed as women for a game once and got several inappropriate comments and people coming too close.

Ich bin entzückt, dass ihnen unsere MaiMais zusagen.

I guess this is much less about captcha V2, i.e. the ones everyone sees but more about V3 that works in the background or other such scripts using fingerprinting, collecting lots of data about the user to determine their validity.

The idea might be websites using traditional methods such as captchas or heutistics if attestation is denied.

SSDs got so cheap, I just added another one for Linux.

I’m far from an expert on communism. But the government, and especially a single person, retaining power over the state and economy is far from communism, it’s more authoritarian. Communism in it’s very base is the citizens owning the means of production, not the state owning those. This in no way is represented in China, where the state has a lot of power over the economy and owns parts of some companies, but there are still capitalists owning factories and workers working there.

Great idea, Mozilla does good things for the internet. Though, please keep in mind that donations to Mozilla never reach Firefox. That is, as donations go to the foundation, a non-profit, while Firefox is developed by a for-profit subsidiary.

Mozilla is trying to reduce its dependency on the Google search deal. The dependence is big, but Mozilla has some reserves and receives the money for channeling searches to Google. They could and already make such deals with other search providers.

When I was there I found those busses really cool. But to my knowledge, they’re being phased out. They essentially combine the worst of bus and tram:

• relies on special infrastructure and thus cannot go anywhere, is more expensive than bus
• often shares the street with other cars being more vulnerable to traffic, uses tires (leading to fine particles)
