You may have misunderstood. It was Shopify who did the big NFT play on their platform. I don’t know much about the Ladybird team, I’m not trying to throw shade on them.
I mean I hope Ladybird devs do a great build and go their own way without being corrupted by their donors and all that, don’t get me wrong. But whenever I see that dumb shopping bag logo I get the no feelings.
You can also read up on how the vast majority of Mozilla’s funding has been coming from Google for a very long time, and draw your own conclusions from that fact.
Shopify (i.e. Shittify) being their top donor already has me looking sideways at this project. They’ll invest in anything they think they can get an edge with and if something starts to happen they’ll fuck it up and wallstreet-ify it as fast as possible if they can.
Their (Shopify’s) guru founder Tobi made a huge NFT play that went absolutely nowhere while I still worked there. They spent a lot of time and money on it, right before they laid several thousand people off.
+1
I also have this lag behavior when clicking links. It takes between one and three seconds. Moto Edge+ w/Firefox as default browser.
They won’t even clean up their own oil well sites. Look up how many oil companies hide all their profits and then declare bankruptcy so that they can get the taxpayers to clean up after a given oilfield runs dry.
I don’t have a lot of hope in them taking care of the other end of the process either, unless it’s by force.
I find it strange that more people haven’t put it together yet. The stuff plastics are made of is literally toxic byproduct from the O&G industry. Yes some of the products have extremely functional uses, but for the rest of it, they’re literally selling us their toxic waste and trying to make us responsible for disposing of it.
They might as well be standing outside the grocery stores with a barrel of goo and offering you a portion of it (for a price of course!) on your way out. So then you take it home and try to figure out what to do with it, and feel bad when you realize there is no way to dispose of it in an ethical way which is why they’re shoving the responsibility onto you.
Had never heard of Silence thanks for that. Gonna check it out.
I miss when Signal still handled SMS. It was so effing convenient.
It’s probably some type of cypher. Which will take people exactly one (1) afternoon to crack.
The only one I’m aware of is Fallout Shelter. The steam version is out of date but the android version is getting updates and new content.
Not sure how easy these are to get yet but they look like a pretty solid win if you can find one. https://www.engadget.com/the-mouthpad-turns-your-tongue-into-a-mouse-for-your-phone-184541021.html
Not many great memories from that era (I was a late teen when payphones largely started disappearing because cell phones) but when as a pre-teen I learned that you could take a standard issue tack from any bulletin board and hold it in contact with the mouthpiece and any other metal object to make free calls, it opened doors in my world forever.
Fact that any major series of companies released tech this easily circumvented gave younger me an intuitive understanding that capitalism is and always will be completely fucked up. Long before I could express how.
Thanks Telus!!!
If you use a DNS solutions you can block all the telemetry shit. Frankly FF has been phoning home in a lot of undesirable ways for many years even before this, like most browsers.
Didn’t open the link, hoped OP would add a summary to the post. But so my imagination runs wild that the bear was so surprised at being decked in the face it hung its head and danced a few beats of whatever music was playing and sulked off to bum a much needed cigarette.
I read somewhere awhile back their platinum donors gave a certain tier (10k or 100k or whatever it was). To be clear I’m more than open to being surprised here, I want Ladybird to succeed. I just resent Shopify being involved in any way, I’m a little bit petty after slogging it out at that company awhile because I know what they’re all about.
