Just like groceries don't include tax in the advertised price. the system is designed to screw us over.

Mozilla keeps digging Firefox's grave, and seeing how other opensource projects like Gimp struggle to even keep up with their own release schedule and very slow development rate. I fear we will be left with only chrome to use.

I wasn't referring to racism. Race and Nationality are almost the same thing, people can't chose in what community they were born in. and not everyone has the means to move.

So the Rest of the world should trust CIA, NSA contributions but not Russia's FSB ? come on , opensource should be tolerant towards all espionage agencies no matter their skin color.

Corporations and commercial interests taking over the internet is inevitable. the only free corners left are the darknets with tor/i2p. but because the normies can't bother use that isn't falshy and trendy, there might not be any other chance to replace this decrepit boring dystopia.

Yeah it is a french expression, the english equivalent is " a long harvest for a little corn "

Here is a link to read about it, its meaning and use and its equivalent in other languages : link

Mark my words! the outcome of this will be like a mountain giving birth to a mouse.

Microsoft came out of such antitrust lawsuit unscathed and a decade later went back to pushing its browser down everyone's throat.

The best action ublock origions devs can take is drop support for chromium based browsers and retract ublock lite from the chrome webstore.

I was hopefull for something more than just a wiki page on github. adding a banner to chrome's add-on menu is way more powerful and far more reaching than what they did

La fin avec la tour allumé et Céline dion c'est cool et classe.

Gaga et compagnie c'estait juste nul

Pour moi les JO de Pekin 2008 c'était le Gold standard et depuis aucune autre ouverture ne s'est rapproché d'elle.

 

Are you guys fine with these new shenanigans from Github. I found a bug and wanted to check what has been the development on that, only to find out most of the discussion was hidden by github and requesting me to sign-in to view it.

It threw me straight back to when Microsoft acquired Github and the discussions around the future of opensource on a microsoft owned infrastructure, now microsoft is exploiting free work from the community to train its AI, and building walls around its product, are open source contributors fine with that ?
