They come out with all the security updates (anywhere between 2 weeks and a month after Google pushes them out). They don’t wait for a feature update to push out security updates.

Still not getting it on mine 😖

to be fair to the incompetent people in law enforcement, I do believe “trying to kill a presidential candidate slated to win and being a millimeter away from getting it done” would justify relying on a 0-day.

“We tried 0000. Tony, write up a press release about how incredible we are at our job and how we spent 400% of our usual overtime on it and send it to the tech press. Make sure they mention we need to triple next year’s budget for security and shit.”

Exactly. The article doesn’t shy away from a bit of free publicity for Cellerite. Which is nowhere near as much of a magic bullet as the “tech media” makes it out to be.

How do I know it? By doing the most basic of research by heading to their website and looking at their manuals and documentation.

And Cellerite won’t tell you this publicly because their bottom line depends on their ability to massively overprice their services which they sell to technically illiterate people.

Any article that mentions Cellerite without a caveat about the dubiousness of their publicity can be disregarded and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

Long time FF user, things really aren’t looking good for Mozilla as a whole.

The whole point of federated social media was to get out of walled gardens, yet here we are, building a walled garden.

To an extent yes, but I think it’s pretty easy to see why people are building their own closed communities on the Fediverse. That was the whole “selling point” of it at the beginning. “Not happy with Twitter? Just spin up your own fedi instance where you have your own rules and you can control who joins and who doesn’t”.

You know that it is comically easy to scrape stuff off of the fediverse, right?

Yes, so why would you argue in favour of making it even easier? Do you see why people aren’t too hot on that?

If you are worried about scraping, use Facebook. Facebook has teams of people who combat bot/scraper activity.

I don’t use Facebook for philosophical reasons and that’s why I’ve picked the Fediverse as a whole. I find it amazing we still need to re-explain that all the time.

We’re talking about Meta and Dorsey’s baby (yeah sure, he’s not there anymore but we all know what kind of company he backs) and you’re talking about startups?

Instead, if Bluesky grows, I can see people move away from it.

When has that ever worked?

This is how we wish to present ourselves as an alternative to corporate social media?

The whole idea in the first place was to NOT be corporate. It’s pretty understandable that when those corporations come knocking pretending to be nice, a lot of people want nothing to do with it.

I keep seeing this argument but like… no. It doesn’t scrap stuff, it merely facilitates scrapping. Come on, can we stop pretending for a second.

“I didn’t kill him, the bullet, gravity and velocity did.”

There is a metaphor about Britain tucked in there.

“Hey israel, I need an excuse to start a war with Iran and no one is buying the nuke thing anymore, got an idea?”

“Sure, you got a ship?”

“Yeah, why?”

It’s true. Counterpoint: if you move places a lot (let’s say if you happen to belong to a generation of people who will never be able to afford a place - which is a huge amount of people), your library needs to fit into a small tablet sized reader. Can store 5000 books, I do not have the means to move that amount of books every time my landlord decides to make my rent more unaffordable. An ereader fits in my pocket.
