Telling advertisers to fuck off works if your goal is to create a niche product tailored to people who care deeply about privacy already. But Mozilla is very much all about trying to make things better for everyone on the internet, regardless about their opinions (or lack thereof) on privacy and ads.

Mozilla has recognised that advertising isn't going anywhere, so there's two options:

1. Reject ads wholesale and become irrelevant.
2. Push for a better alternative that can improve privacy while still keeping the engine that drives the internet intact.

What other major player would ever push for privacy preserving attribution? Hint: no one. While I get that many people here want 0 ads (myself included), PPA is a great step in the right direction, and could have a huge positive impact if it's shown to work and other companies start adopting it.

And guess what? You can still turn it off, or use adblockers. Unlike Chrome, Firefox won't restrict you in that regard.

If you're plugging a USB drive into my home server, then I have bigger problems than malware.

Nah screw that.. don't buy early access games if you don't think it's worth it in it's current state.

Can anyone recommend any matter based sensors? I too haven't purchased any devices yet and figured I might as well try to build out with matter to have a single strong network instead of many weaker ones, and aiui matter will likely win out over ZigBee in the long term?

A fractured government where things get done with more deliberation and compromise is a feature, not a bug.

This is a wholesome reply, so not saying this to shame or anything, just to inform. I don't think it's something many people realize.

But the statement "we're all Canadians" is quite literally untrue. Many indigenous people do identify as Canadian and that's great. But many others vehemently do not. What's more is their right to self government is enshrined in the constitution, so they are actually sovereign nations living within Canada.

Oh that's not at all what they implied. They implied you shouldn't use the project based on the author's opinions. That's very different from implying the author isn't entitled to their opinions.

Boycotting the software doesn't infringe on the author's rights to have a shitty opinion. It's called consequences for being an asshole.

Did the OP say they couldn't have different views? You must have replied to the wrong comment.

Probably my favourite ARPG. You play as a peasant with no skill, and that actually translates in game. If you've ever rolled your eyes at games where you effortless smash waves upon waves of enemies, this game is for you. Beating even the lowliest grunt can be quite challenging, forcing you to play in ways other than "beat everything up".

The neat thing is the story is not only based on real life events, but all the towns exist (still to this day in the Czech Republic), the geography is super accurate (relative distnace, rivers, ridges, etc) and even the buildings are modelled off the real things (some are still standing, or you can still see their ruins).

This game ticked so many boxes for me, and is a steal at $8

I think you have a very optimistic view on how far crowd sourcing this is going to take us.

BTW, you think web developers aren't already using editors that use AI to generate alt text automatically? AI alt text is going to be everywhere regardless.

Also I'm not saying that's a good thing. It's just an inevitable thing.

I get the principled reason to do this. But most people aren't set up to pirate. And even if they were, it's inconvenient to have games not attached to their steam library. I don't think anyone should deprive themselves of this masterpiece.

If the prospect of pirating is holding you back, just buy it. The game is too good to miss out

Wait, was the any doubt about a conservative majority even before this result?
