• History shows everything I’ve ever been to including the “nope that top result in my search engine actually didn’t contain the search string anywhere in its contents and is thus useless to me.” pages
• Bookmarks are for things I routinely go to for years
• Tabs are useful results for the projects I’m working on now.
• Pinned tabs are the pages I visit multiple times a day.

None of those is a substitute for any other.

Yeah, it doesn’t clear the dials, and if you want to manually reduce the time you do need to adjust the time dial, but you get a delightful bell sound when you do so. The door does stop the magnetron when open though.

Peak microwave

One dial is power level, the other is time.

Thank goodness John Henry has taught us Americans that machines will never beat humans, so we obviously know how this will end. /s

DEI during hiring is things like:

• Making sure job postings are put up in spaces where minority populations have a similar chance to see them as majority populations. I.e. post at HBCU and Women’s colleges’ job boards, not just at the hiring manager’s alma mater.
• Making sure the application portal is accessible to those with disabilities

DEI during employment is things like:

• continuing unconscious bias training
• educating about the existence of diverse backgrounds and how that can benefit your team
• encouraging communication among your team members about how they approach problems, overcome obstacles, and achieve results

DEI is not (though the right commonly likes to use it this way):

• A slur for non-white male presenting people
• A diversity hire
• A socially acceptable term in lieu of the n-word

You could read it, it’s pretty short.

Here’s what the AUP says about porn:

You may not use any of Mozilla’s services to:

• …
• Upload, download, transmit, display, or grant access to content that includes graphic depictions of sexuality or violence,
• …

So yeah, in that sense it “says what it says about porn.” It’s just that “what it says about porn” is in a list of things you can’t use their services for and before the only mention of how to use their “product.”

Through their various agreements and terms Mozilla makes a clear distinction between products and services and has clear guidelines on how you can use them. When the TOS says “obey the AUP” and the AUP says “don’t use our services for porn and don’t sell our products or services” then viewing porn with their product is not a violation of their AUP and thus not a violation of their TOS.

Ultimately, however, the final decision would have to be resolved in court.

The Acceptable Use Policy contains guidelines for services and guidelines for products. The Firefox TOS says “Your use of Firefox must follow Mozilla’s Acceptable Use Policy, and you agree that you will not use Firefox to infringe anyone’s rights or violate any applicable laws or regulations.” The only part of the Acceptable Use Policy that pertains to products is “You also may not sell, resell, or duplicate any Mozilla product or service without written permission from Mozilla.” Mozilla has a separate TOS for their services.

Therefore, you can look at porn in FF as long as you don’t bundle FF in a Linux repo without their written permission, but you can’t look at porn when using their VPN.

So everything he does is explicitly from you? Got it!

This isn’t one of those instances where freedom of speech is allowed.

I love how you just reiterated your erroneous point verbatim without clarification.

Be respectful of others.

Not sure what that has to do with this discussion or my comment.

Gonna ignore you now since you don’t have an answer to my question.

1. I have answered your question in a top level comment; your not liking the answer doesn’t mean I haven’t answered.
2. That’s your right as much as it’s my right to answer your question as I see fit or to point out the dichotomy of your actions and words.

It seems you don’t actually know what freedom of speech is.

Freedom of speech means the government can’t get you in trouble for what you say.

Freedom of speech does not mean what you have to say is valuable, relevant, or required to be protected, platformed, or promoted by private capital or individuals. Lemmy instances by and large are not products of governments used to curtail your right to say what you want–they’re private entities who’s own freedom of speech and association allow them to make a determination about whether you’re an acceptable entity to keep around.

If you think you’re an acceptable entity to keep around when no one else does, feel free to start your own instance.

Sure it is.

And even if it weren’t that doesn’t make your comment about you getting butt hurt from someone telling you to be better for seeking out where you can be a bigot any less ironic.

Perhaps you should rephrase your post then to indicate you’re actually interested in bigotry affirming instances instead of instances that refrain from being a government entity that controls expression.

They are different.

Pretty much any Lemmy instances I suspect supports freedom of speech. There’s not really any evidence that admins are colluding with the feds to control what you say.

What may be happening is admins deciding of their own volition to not platform certain types of comments. Notably that doesn’t stop you or anyone else from saying whatever; it just means you gotta do it somewhere else, like your own instance.

This is the most ironic comment ever.

I was just highlighting the hypocrisy of the party of law and order. Regardless of how serious an institution they are, their interpretations at any given moment in time are the law.

So in violation of a federal law and a SCOTUS ruling Tiktok will be back in US markets because the guy that originally proposed the ban violated the Logan act?

I virtue signaled over a decade ago.

Depends on the person. It sometimes gets into the negative double digits F where I live. Its forecasted to snow around Christmas and I’m hyped as fuck.

Did you accidentally replace your path rather than append to it? You might need to get a recovery drive, chroot in, and reset the path. Not sure what the actual value should be though.

To me this smells of typical subsidizing of a product to capture market share then lock in that market share. Anything I’m missing?

That’s exactly it.

Different operating systems have their own interfaces to allow user level programs (like games) to communicate with hardware. This is a great-over-simplification, but one OS may understand something like “drawTriangle(x, y, z)” while another may expect “drawPolygon([x, y, z])”.

There are software projects to attempt to translate commands meant for one OS for a different OS (such as “Wine” or Valve’s “Proton”) and those work fairly well in cases that: 1) there’s an analogous command, 2) the analogous commands have been accurately mapped, and 3) the analogous commands operate in user space.

That last point is the primary reason why, despite the best efforts of developers, some games still cannot work across OSs. Operating systems are built on top of different levels with the lowest being the “kernel” (of “kernel level anti-cheat” notoriety) and the highest being the user space (where you interact). Both Windows and Linux have these, but the boundaries around them, what they can and cannot do, and how to interact across those boundaries differs between each system.

So when a Windows game installs a driver to monitor everything that your computer does that driver (kernel level anti-cheat) is tailored very specifically to the extremely powerful, low level, and unique Windows kernel. Linux cannot run that natively. If the game pretends that spying on you is an essential component to launch then the game will not launch. If, however, a game is perfectly happy to just stay in user space where it belongs then it will probably work fine with the available translation layers.
