Mozilla is done as a company. their new privacy policy is an absolute fucking disaster and a stab in the back."To market our services" section is genuinely not much different from what Google is doing with Chrome; Review Checker is useless if you also push sponsored content as a part of it'; collecting "all data types to comply with applicable laws..." - this is all sad.use LibreWolf instead for daily purposes.https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-news/firefox-terms-of-use/#Privacy #Mozilla #Firefox #Browser #LibreWolf

@stux actually, Ukraine/Russia was not the first war where drones made huge difference. Azerbaijan's usage of drones during Second Karabakh war was the first prelude towards new type of warfare

@stux yes. Azerbaijan has been using same Bayraktars drones supplied to Ukraine (since Azerbaijan and Turkiye are "brotherly nations", so to speak), and for decades they also had military cooperation with Israel - whose arms, incl. drones, have been helpful too of course Azeris didn't have as much supply and production of drones as Ukraine did, but nonetheless drones were incredibly helpful to establish air dominance - esp. with Armenia having only russia-made weapons & rockets

@stux I believe they're counting as "players" every single unique user, especially considering Uplay+ allows to try the game out without buying it - also, most of PC players use Ubisoft Connect rather than Steam

I'd like to use this opportunity to endorse NOT using subscription services for music, whether it's Spotify or not - at least if possible.can't speak for iOS users, but for #Android users: download your music & store it locally on your devices. if you have an Android device. I use #NewPipe for years and it's still doing good. (btw don't get surprised if Microsoft & Sony will introduce same age verification shit for videogames - both subscription services and beyond them)

saw this description about Duolingo and tbh I do find it accurate:"Duolingo is successful because it makes you THINK you’re learning a lot (so you keep coming back), whilst teaching you almost nothing (so you keep coming back)"

some technical specs from their website for anyone interested, and certainly more skilled than me in this because I'm still under a learning curve around radio stuff 🫣 (PDF: https://social.v.st/@becha/115162908184572494)#Electronics #Hardware #Radio

I have... plenty of questions to iFixit about it https://www.ifixit.com/News/114700/introducing-fixbot- have you asked for consent from people whose data you used from forums?- have you considered that it may actually harm one of the right to repair benefits which is community building, incl. your forums?- finally, you admit that "AI sometimes gets things wrong" - and then declare this bot is an "Expert Helper You Always Wanted". which one is it? #iFixit #Hardware #Electronics #Tech #Technology #Repair #RightToRepair
