I’m really curious if they can make video injection of ads cost effective.

It feels like mangeling video streams into one, potentially re-encoding the video as they go… sounds expensive

1 or 3; maybe 4.

With several assumptions made, ultimately, they’re asking for json, and we should still return json, but what that looks like is up to you. It should be static enough that the person on the other end can write:

If json.grtnode(error) == "unauthorized access"
Do stuff

Ifnyour going to be changing the text with some regularity to contain relevant information for the error (eg, an item ID, that is now invalid), then consider a code/text and additional fields.

is it decades of hacky code, or decades of battle tested code?

I haven’t touched wordpress in… many years, but I’ve seen far too many developers look at old code and call it junk… only to break things horrifically when they attempt a rewrite.

Gotta ask yourself how Israel has hostages to exchange on “day 1” of “this” conflict

A port of a browser is relatively minimal effort. Typically, the changes are largely cosmetic, and occasionally skin deep.

There’s a reason none of the ports of Chrome caught the recent snafu with Google having its own special addon that fucks your privacy.

Developing a browser, Firefox or Chrome, takes a huge amount of effort, and are on a similar scale to both Windows and Linux. It’s a lot. There are a lot of places to hide things. Taking all of that, and making V2 continue to work… well it’ll be alright to start with. It’s probably a flag somewhere currently. But in 2 years time? 5 years time? It will take a lot to keep V2 working, let alone back porting V3 features that people may actually want.

Just use Firefox instead.

I mean, that argument starts to wade in to the Mozilla foundation as a whole, and what their purpose is, and that’s a giant kettle of fish.

Theoretical game. They lowball Google on how much Google pays them. How do people react? I don’t see them doing that and say, “Man, I’m glad Firefox is reducing Google’s influence over them”. I see them making a thread about how Firefox is giving Google a discounted rate because they’re all corrupt technofacists.

The core problem there still exists IMO. Funding.

What we really need is a reasonable way for open source, free, software, that exists for the good of the whole, to get money. But that has it’s own kettle of fish, where does it come from, how big is big enough to get some, what if they charge for support, how open is open enough.

Something something, seize the means of production, communism, etc.

Ok idealist.

What is your alternative funding stream for Mozilla?

It’s bad.

Is it worse than the advertising owned browser that gives your information directly to said advertiser?

DAM DAM?

ACDSee even shows thumbnails for Affinity Photo project files

You’re telling me there’s an image managing program out there, that works with Affinity, and for some reason people aren’t talking about it???

If they had library management even close to what lightroom offers, I’d be there.

I may yet jump ship for photoshop.

I wanted to leave snarky comments about the only news worthy symptom would be the ability to pass it on to other humans.

I stand corrected.

It supports both online co-op as well as split screen with multiple controllers; at least it does on PC.

I think it’s far more likely there’s some sales goal and or performance indicator at play here.

I’m really hoping for thermite. A lot of thermite.

The CDC told reporters on a call that it has not seen evidence of human to human transmission of bird flu and that it has tested close to 40 people since March, including the Michigan worker.

If, and only if, we see human to human transmission, then we sorry. Not before.

Honestly, I think almost everything else is worse than Google.

I set my default to duck duck go, and it’s getting better, but I still fall back on google with some regularity

It’s just that in America they realized if they complain enough, they get to rub they’re hands gleefully at the thought of all that electricity they’re going to sell, AND all the public money they’re going to get to upgrade the grid!

Assumedly, to deal with a race condition.

Or regulation.

Driving prices down would require meaningful competition, or a feasible alternative, or regulation.

(Feasible alternatives do exist, eg trades, but are not treated as viable alternatives by society)

It muddies the water around, supporting the various states, and the public image of that.

The same thing for the Palestine genocide ongoing now, the US has a second war to supply.
