Not that benchmarks matter a whole lot these days, but I think for some benchmarks it was faster than Chrome. It’s close enough to not even be a factor, in any case.

Also, it has a feature that Chrome seemingly has no analogue for, and that is: containers.

I never entirely stopped using Firefox. I still use Chrome alongside Firefox for certain things at work.

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

Came here to say this. I wish other browsers would catch up to Firefox and add this feature for when I have to use them (esp. Chrome/Edge).

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

I’ll be honest; I bounce between several browsers - Firefox, Chromium, Chrome, and even sometimes Edge, and sometimes it takes a second for me to even remember which one I’m looking at. Firefox is great for very specific work flows I have, but for a lot of other things, most other browsers will do.

Maybe it’s because I tend to bounce around that I find it very interesting to hear that FF is difficult to use.

Ron DeSantis' new target in his 'war on woke'? Colors, apparently (www.msnbc.com)

As part of DeSantis’ “Freedom Summer” initiative, the state’s transportation secretary, Jared W. Perdue, announced earlier this month that bridges in the state will have no choice but to be illuminated in red, white and blue from Memorial Day through Labor Day....

So much “freedom” down there in Gilead. Policing colors and not letting people choose to eat lab-grown meat. Wouldn’t want anyone getting any ideas about any notions of ACTUAL freedom.

What’s especially stupid is that dietary choice is not entirely a left-right thing, but the likes of DeSatan sure do try…

Remember the Nazis making a big deal of guzzling milk, because “superior race”, lol. Also, they did make a big deal of “soy boy” (as if being veg*n and/or drinking soy means you are not “manly”, lol).

LOL, WTAF. I do think sometimes there is a certain portion of the terminally online leftists that have disappeared up their own derrieres, looking for offense in things like not being sufficiently intersectional, and generally playing silly oppression olympics, all aimed at their allies (meaning, only certain people are able to talk about certain topics and so on - it’s all so useless and pointless and probably only really results in generating more Republicans), while fascism is organizing and on the march.

Then the right keep doing completely stupid stuff like this, and I really wish those terminally online leftists would wake up and realize they need to stop all the infighting and realize the right are saying the quiet part out loud. They want to make it safe to say and do completely outrageous things to liberals, women, POC, non-xtians, anyone not straight, and so on. I think the leftists that spend so much time on policing liberals/leftists for the most minor of infractions in language or political thought would be a lot better off trying to win the hearts and minds of middle America instead of trying to find reasons to kick out their allies. Because none of their pointless theorizing will mean zilch if the right gets their way. In the most extreme of outcomes, the right will work to murder citizens that don’t meet their metrics for hegemony.

Yes, because we know how much the right really, really, really cares about things like plagiarism, at least for certain people (see: Ward Churchill and Claudine Gay).

It’s the Southern notion of “freedom”. Meaning you get to rule over others.

Alternative github frontends?

Github has become more bloated, slower and more user-hostile with each update (just like all other big corp platforms). SPA navigation slow like hell, the “new” file viewer/browser is hardly usable in my opinion, code search does not work without login, etc. So are there any good alternative FE where the following work (read...

use cancel culture against somebody they disagree

LOL. Is “cancel culture” even a thing?

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

Really? How? Who has been “cancelled”? What happened to them?

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

How were they “cancelled”, though? Do awful people have a right to gobs of money and attention and a platform? If I get fired from my job for bad behavior, does that mean it’s not being fired, but “cancelled”?

By the way, nearly all the people that are supposedly “cancelled” still seem to have careers.

“Cancel culture” is just a big myth from the right.

CharlesDarwin ,

Typing search terms into Google does not an argument make. Neither does calling people lazy.

It feels like a compromise from a period of time that is no longer relevant to these times when we are trying to push this country into the future. I don’t want rural regions to have more of a voice, FFS. Look at what it is doing to this country. Having fewer people have an equal say with the majority of the people is also not great, the majority should win out. Why the fuck should tracts of land be voting?

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

The cons really showed their hand more recently when arguing over things like suppressing the vote, and mail-in voting and telling everyone that “voting is not really a right enshrined in the Constitution”.

Well, tell us how you really feel.

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

They get to vote, don’t they? They just don’t get to have their vote given extra privileges just because they live in a sparsely populated area, that’s all.

My goodness, yes.

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

Yup. In states that are not swing states, why would those voters even bother?

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

I’m not understanding the food part here.

I understand the history of compromising with states that had less (free) people because of slave states; I’m saying it’s no longer relevant in modern society. It turns out rural areas are usually better represented by Democratic policies in any case. Ironically.

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

completely silence the voice of a group of people for all time

I don’t think anything proposed here by anyone would do that? What is being proposed is to stop prioritizing the votes of people occupying vast tracts of land over the majority. To have a vote cast by someone in the hinterlands equal someone’s vote in more populous parts of the country is putting them on par with everyone else. I’m not so sure what is so magical about someone living in a remote area that their interests should not align with everyone else’s.

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

On this, we definitely agree. The House is being held down to an arbitrary number and it is patently absurd.

CharlesDarwin ,
@CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world avatar

If it’s nothing magical, why do we do this for no other minority group?
