Firefox needs a 180° turn to full privacy out of the box.
  • this is the (un)fortunate reality.

    unfortunate in that keeping a modern browser up to date is a serious task when you need to compete with the agenda and scale of google etc

    fortunate in that its a relatively simple solution, the community needs to fund the software. (and good idea, go for some regional funding)

    its tough though as i can imagine if they pulled the kind of popup shit wikipedia does, it will just drive people away. what people don't realise ofc is that with chrome you are paying for it (with your data), but for some reason they're not viewed in the correct light.

  • Who's winning here, exactly?
  • Thanks, do you know if/where we can download the full phind source including the full models, training data etc? To run 100% offline?

    edit: for anyone reading this thread, YOU CAN'T. it's not currently opensource. and afaik there is no concrete timeline for it to be opened, other than sometime "down the road".

    to be clear, i definitely agree we have the creative nerd factor the corporations lack, but unfortunately there's been a bit of trading on 'open' while still being very closed in the "AI" world, really hope this doesn't turn out to be another example of that.

  • Geany 2.0 is out! | Geany
  • suggestions should work by default, if by which you mean basic completion of names etc

    anyway fair enough, its not for everyone.

    sorry for being a bit overly defensive, i just really love geany lol

  • Geany 2.0 is out! | Geany
  • true, though its fairly easy to use the build interface to setup basic debugging support (breakpoints, watches etc) for unsupported languages. but i admit, its not the same.

    you're right, that's a fair criticism

  • Geany 2.0 is out! | Geany
  • not customizable

    themes, plugins, ridiculously easy custom configurations/build commands etc you can even control the window manager from config files if you want to, its insanely customisable

    lacks support for a lot of things

    edit: trying to sound less snarky, but do you have a lot of examples?

    i could see these criticisms arising from a quick glance. or we may have slightly different definitions of these terms. which is fair enough.

    imo geany's ratio of features to weight is remarkable, perhaps singularly so?

  • android companies vs apple
  • if you wanna continue to embarrass yourself go ahead. i won't be entertaining this sad display any longer.

    anyone is free to search the thread and read what i wrote in the full context it was stated.

    and to see your blatant dishonesty.

    good luck mate, i hope you find some kind of peace to whatever is keeping you so fixated about windows users that you need to fabricate an enemy in me over that aspect, despite me clearly and repeatedly denouncing it from day 1 of this discussion. all the best.

  • android companies vs apple
  • and for the record i don't think its about 'inadequacies'. its not a magic skill or secret knowledge. its just about investing the time to learn. put the time in and it will come, as you've already seen with your server.

  • android companies vs apple
  • nowhere in this entire essay, nor in any of your other comments for that matter, do you even address my point that lumping in Windows users with the immoral actions of a company results in a harmful dissonance

    anyone can see the scrollback for themselves, it's plainly visible i denounced it multiple times. the evidence is right here for anyone to see:

    But then you learn they got rich by cutting corners and screwing over your friends. And are actively investing in making the public pool shit so they can grandstand their pool. Noone is blaming you for going up to the rich guys pool to have a nice easy time. Or at least, I’m not defending the kind of linux zealots who might blame you for choosing that

    Source

    As I mentioned, I’m not here to criticise you for making the choice you have, or defend those who do criticise you for it.

    Source

    As stated we are not listing reasons for condemning you for your choice

    Source

    As stated many times, you are welcome to your choice, and your choice is understandable.

    Source

    dude its just sad at this point. why are you bothering to pretend its not addressed when its addressed repeatedly and was even requoted like 2 posts before you made your ridiculous, verifiably false statement.

    what is the purpose of this game? who do you think you're kidding? anyone can see you're being dishonest. and don't even have the grace to admit it, you're wrong. completely wasting an opportunity for us both to learn and for us to be friends even.

    whats even stranger is the original discussion was about linux community shitting on windows NOT windows users:

    The Linux community shitting on Windows is worse

    Source

    you've fixated on this windows user issue when, as quoted, it was never even about that, was already denounced by me immediately as quoted & sourced repeatedly above.

    i can see why you think linux users are smug arseholes, you pull this shit and cry when you don't get away with it. its just sad dude. noone at microsoft is paying for your time to get invested like this. you think you give a fuck about you???

    but you know who might actually give a fuck about you? us, here, in this community. but you need to start by being honest with yourself about this, otherwise you are the one making it a waste of time.

    Should downvotes require a summary textfield?

    across a variety of modern up/down vote based platforms, some make it a personal mission to avoid downvoting (the only real exceptions when someone is being utterly objectionable, ie. ridiculously racist/sexist etc or blatant spamming (1)

    in general, it is almost always better to have a respectful discussion than mindlessly downvoting and moving on. if two parties can meet for respectful discussion the outcome is almost always superior to the text-book divisiveness of a downvote war etc (2).

    in a great many cases people usually find they don't disagree as much as previously thought, have their mind opened to a valuable new perspective, or at worst accept to disagree respectfully. definitely a better outcome.

    yes it is time consuming, but don't we all generally want quality over quantity?

    (2) the original idea of a self-moderating community through up/down votes is a good idea, yet appears to have been hijacked by the modern social-media-type weaponised web, which is being turned against humanity to divide and polarize us against eachother. and is particularly suspectible to bot manipulation.

    (1) which can have eg. their own flags
