Hate the new menu with a passion. There's one feature I used a lot, "open in regular tab", that has been removed.

So you're saying there's a chance...

Supposedly phones remain in standby even when turned off. So either remove the battery if possible or leave them home.

Basically when the pressure to grow bigger fruits and yields disappears, all offspring have equal changes to breed.

The current AI chats are emergent properties. The very fact that I looks like it's talking with us despite being just probabilistic models of a neural network is an emergent effect. The neural network is just a bunch of numbers.

It's like you just ignored everything I wrote and went with whatever you had in mind. So there's not much point in engaging with your arguments.

From a global perspective, we do share common values and similar languages. A federal EU doesn't need to be exactly like other federations like the US. The EU has always been it's own thing, and an European Federation would also be a unique creation. Nothing of what you say would prevent that. Even within a country, people celebrate different holidays. And if you ask a Californian where they are from, they answer California, not USA. The only real blocker is mindless nationalism.

2026 is the year of Linux. Trump bans use of Linux because it came from Europe and has no idea what it is

I strong hate these imagines with a piss tint. I can't stand them. And the text has these tiny AI-flavoured imperfections too.

And just 20 years later we have destroyed the concept of truth. What a time to be alive.

Only 2-3 billion of us! All snowflakes!

 
 
 

I'm not one to usually diss new UI changes, but this one grinds my gears.

Firefox for Android has released a new menu design. It organizes everything a little differently, which is alright it looks fresh. But 2 things are really annoying and a continuous design trend in Firefox.

  • The option to open page in external app has been tucked away in a sub menu. I used this often and it was in the top level menu before. Companies just love hiding things in menus for no reason.
  • the option to open a private tab as a normal tab is GONE. This is how I use Firefox: someone sends me a link, I click on it and it opens in a private tab by default. If I need to sign in to see it (e.g. private Instagram links) then I open it in a normal tab. This option is now simply gone.

So yeah that's my rant. I'll see if I open a bug requesting the 2nd issue back.

 
 
 

I personally been using it for almost 5 years. I heard about it from a colleague a few years before that but I forgot about it, and then an online ad reminded me to check them out again.
