Annoyed_Crabby , in Here's the album, can anyone name the tracks for it?

Bullseye, Finger on the Trigger, Firing Up, Gunning for the Medals, Good Guy with a Gun, Big Iron Redux, NRA NRA, and the controversial piece, USA Have Too Many Gun Nuts

Can you do one of these for Windows 3.1 or 95? That would be sweet!

Honestly, I hate steam (the client) so much. I have a fair sized library of games that I never play because it’s just torture to me to start that abomination of a program. Why the fuck couldn’t they give it a simple, clean, elegant, native UI that doesn’t treat my battery with wanton disrespect?

sigurdtheone ,

Have a look at Playnite, it might be a better fit for you, also includes other stores.

yuri ,

Does it let me join lobbies off my steam friends? I’ll fucken drop the official client RIGHT NOW if it does.

I_Has_A_Hat , in An alternate timeline

Fucking Steam always getting shittier with each update! Why can’t they be better like Microsoft’s XBox Store or DRM free like Epic Games?!

Crazy how Microsoft sold of their XBox brand to Sega, conserding that this single handetly made Sega the biggest video gaming company world wide!

Mozilla’s slowly creeping in the surveillance with adding integrated crap like Pocket and AI driven Fake Spot. I’m really glad Librewolf’s made a privacy focused fork of their browser without all that nonsense.

menixator ,

Related announcement: …mozilla.org/…/privacy-preserving-attribution

TLDR: Mozilla wants your data and it’s opt out. If you’re on FF 128 it’s already on and you will have to turn it off manually. Shame how they have fallen this low. The LEAST they could have done is show a pop up announcement when the user upgraded to 128.

Also: +1 to Librewolf. Mozilla is definitely going to try more scummy crap like this in the future. Definitely the better option over Firefox.

Can’t wait for ladybird to come out! Finally something that speaks our language.

Damn, 2026. I hope you CAN wait.

nexussapphire ,

That or the free internet as we know it will be dead by the time it reaches production.

greywolf0x1 ,

I think Servo is a better option, it’s also being written in rust.

timestatic ,

Looks really cool. I hope we don’t have the overreliance on one rendering engine in the future. Once one or the other comes out I’ll definitely try it out.

nexussapphire ,

So long as it survives rusts complexity and lack of portability. I’m always down for more options!

greywolf0x1 ,

rust is complex and non-portable?

i’ve never heard of this, do you mind explaining what you mean better?

nexussapphire ,

You joking? 😆 I don’t want to discourage you from giving rust a try but come on. Have you ever talked to a developer that spent any real time with rust, anyone that got as far as multi threading?

@zorrothefox2001@lemmy.world avatar

Wasn’t Firefox supposed to incorporate Servo in some way or another before Quantum was developed?

greywolf0x1 ,

I think the Quantum release was what integrated some major components of the servo project.

Paradachshund ,

Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but I just read that whole article and it sounds like a good implementation? Companies want to know how effective their ads are, and I like their approach of trying to find a way to provide this without wholesale personal data collection. They even say at the end that they don’t get the data either. It sounds like a reasonable thing to try and standardize.

menixator ,

I’m not commenting on implementation itself but rather on how Mozilla went about with an opt-out approach into the collection program (even if it was for testing) to a community they have cultivated with the promise of privacy.

Collecting my data is a big deal. It doesn’t matter how it is used. I should at least consent to it.

timestatic ,

I feel like this argument is fair enough. I think a pop-up informing the user about it and how to opt out is sufficient.

Zacryon ,

I’ve read the announcement. Sounds reasonable and sufficiently private to me. So saying “Mozilla wants your data” sounds misleading and like an overreaction to me. Also might help to mitigate the arms race in privacy protection versus tracking for ads and worse stuff.

Mozilla is definitely going to try more scummy crap like this in the future.

How do you know that?

Even if, there will still be alternatives. But right now, Firefox is the best browser with regards to privacy and security. It even passed minmum ratings by the german IT security authority, contrary to other widely used browsers.

SloganLessons ,

Respectefully disagree. Reasonable would’ve been making it opt in, not opt out and justifying it with “would be too difficult to explain”.

Zacryon ,

I’m with you on the opt-out vs. opt-in part. That’s not a nice move. Regardless of that, Firefox is still the best choice. I hope they will continue to improve.

@Mwa@thelemmy.club avatar

atleast its opt out

coolusername ,

a lot of sites are unusable with librewolf for some reason

AstralPath , (edited )

A lot of sites? Or more like just a few? Personally, the ratio of working vs broken sites is like 100 to 1 and when a site is broken, its usually one of those shit pile SEO listicle sites or some absolute trash heap of ads. Every time I’ve disabled the protections I’ve regretted it.

A lot of the web is useless trash nowadays and Librewolf has done a good job of filtering that for me.

P4ulin_Kbana , in How i feel on Lemmy

To be honest, I’ve been using Lemmy for a week now, and I’m kind of concerned with all the communism stuff around here.

The illustration neglects to show how the mass incarceration and death row system will be set up and function in order for death penalty to be inflicted on those littering. Of course it does, it wouldn’t be as pretty otherwise.

It’s been commonly used as a pejorative in French for a decade or so.

loaExMachina ,

Yeah. A French equivalent could be “Nique l’extrème-droite”, but that would come out as ruder. Both words have the same literal meaning and same use in their respective language, but when " fuck" is used in French, it’s further from it’s literal meaning. “Fuck X” is then always perceived as a vague statement of hostility towards X, without the sexual connotation.

anachronist ,

I remember sitting in a cafe in Copenhagen and overhearing a conversation at the table next to mine. I had no idea what they were talking about but “fucking” was the only word I recognized. It was about every third word they said.

TSG_Asmodeus ,
@TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world avatar

Au Canada, le juron francais que j’entends est ‘tabarnak’, ‘calice’, ‘ostie’ au lieu de ‘fuck.’

(So I was surprised)

pedz ,

Pourtant c’est plutôt commun au Québec. Ça s’enchaîne pas comme les sacres liturgiques mais c’est bien utilisé. Quelque chose peut être fucké. Une personne peut être fuckée. C’est fucking chiant. Fuck ça! Juste, fuck!

Sadly Mozilla is becoming the next Google of web browsers.

ColdWater ,
@ColdWater@lemmy.ca avatar

What?

Matriks404 ,

Have you not heard the news? Mozilla essentially have become an advertising company by acquiring adtech start-up called Anonym. I think the only way to escape this bullshit is by installing privacy-enabled Firefox fork (such as LibreWolf) or to wait for an alternative web browser to rise up (like Ladybird or Servo) which has user freedom and privacy in its first priority, which is something that Mozilla doesn’t seem to care lately.

ColdWater ,
@ColdWater@lemmy.ca avatar

no I don’t, I have not keeping up with browser news lately after switched to Floorp, not sure if I still live long enough to see Ladybird or Servo officially released

Can’t even get HL3 on an alternate timeline.

DragonOracleIX ,

We might be living in the timeline that gets HL3. A recent leak from a VA’s resume suggests that it might be in development.

Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.

EnderMB ,

Wasn’t Alyx HL3?

Psythik ,

It was a prequel.

allidoislietomyself ,

Rumor has it that HL3 or some other single player HL game is currently in the works!
