Someone in my city drives one of those tiny little Japanese pickups and I’d kill for one of those honestly.

I dont disagree but that doesn’t change the fact that A- taxes are a thing and therefore a cost that has to be factored in, and B- Even if we fix the tax system it would still be a necessity.
Fixing broken systems is important and WOULD help people find housing, but arguing for utopia or bust is only going to let things get worse as you bicker about the details of municipal spending (which again I do agree on but we ALSO need to work within the system we have now to help people for whom this isn’t theoretical internet banter…)
If you were being censored we wouldn’t be having this conversation. Y’all mistake “censorship” with “moderation” and I bet if i went to your favorite communities with the same energy y’all go to ml instances with I’d get moderated too (but you’d cheer when THEY do it of course.)
Unfortunately I think its unrealistic to hope for something that doesn’t take profits into consideration as things stand now. Also, while I agree rents have gone FAAARRRRRR beyond any practical purposes, some people do forget “at cost” includes extra to cover maintenance and taxes.
For all the whining about being censored and banned there sure always seems to be a while lot of you following ml instances just to cry about them being ml.
Or do you mean they should shrink, fire people, and downscale
I reckon I do. Google is like 80% of their funding or some shit, which hinders other search products while affecting user experience in other ways as well due to their influence. If they reined in the scope of their product, they could work on a lower budget which might allow them to work towards breaking free of that oversight. As I mentioned, I don’t think most Firefox users want half this crap they’re working on anyway, but they’re caught in the tech “infinite growth” loop where they ““have”” to crank out bs features or else be considered irrelevant.
Just make a solid browser, work in solid mod support so I can make it my own, and maintain it. I have my own tools to use instead of pocket and whatever else, I don’t need Mozilla to do that.
In terms of workers being let go, if they scale back they can at least let people go in a respectful manner instead of them just showing up to a sign on the door lol.
Believe it or not, straight to jail.
How many people actually download and store those installers though? I think GOG is awesome too but practically if you exclusively shop there you have the same problem unless you have a massive NAS on hand
Wait can it run ps3 emulators?
Double wait are ps3 emulators working now? I remember pscx2 or whatever being buggy as shit.
TLDR I’m ancient in internet years
I bet they wouldn’t be so dependent on that google money if they stopped trying to chase every tech trend that pops up regardless of interest or popularity.
My perception of Firefox users is that most of us use Firefox for a reason, and thats usually some variation of moving away from big tech bullshit. I COULD be wrong but I certainly dont think so lol.
In the US, it isn’t about identification or fraud, its about hoops. The more hoops you have to jump through, the less likely “undesirables” (POC, poors, etc) are yo get it done. Like most things here, its a relic of Jim Crow and related policies. It flies so well even today because it all seems menial to somebody well off (you see it in these comments “Its only $10 what’s the problem”)
Here, the Department of Motor Vehicles tends to be your central point of anything ID related driver or not. My city’s used to be on the bus line, but they moved it to the county far from any public transit. So if you don’t drive, that $10 is now $10 + $20 taxi/uber there + $20 ride home and depending on what you’re doing/getting you may need to go back which is another $40. So really you’re looking at $50-100 to get whatever it is.
In my state at one time (I do think its changed here but assume its probably the same in other states) to get a birth certificate you had to go to the state capital (4 hour drive for me one way.) If you dont drive, sucks to suck. Pay someone to take you or hope you have greyhound where you live.
I could go on, but you get the point.
100%. Also fine them for one months salary every time they play this “I just won’t do my job 🤷♂️” game. Dont wanna work, dont get paid.
Unfortunately they all live off corporate kickbacks more than salary but at least some of that can be returned to the coffers.
Add me on AIM xXxXMadSkilz420XxXx
My car died over covid but my license plate was “I ALTF4” lol
Damn I didn’t know VLC was on android lol, definitely my desktop go-to!
This is me. I don’t give a single fuck about achievements, unless ive really enjoyed myself and (usually) only if I’m most of the way via my regular playthrough. Requiring multiple playthroughs is an immediate turn off, too many other games to get to lol.
Also also lobster and chicken wings.

As I mentioned, I’d be inclined to wonder what you’re considering “apologism.” The fact that you didn’t address the points I made makes me think you fall into that camp of boiling an intentionally wide array of ideas, conversation, etc down to “apologism” to take up arms against instances you don’t like. I see discussion of those countries, and examples of things that are happening there, but not one time have I seen people celebrating violence or excusing it on either hexbear or .ml.
I can’t afford a car right now but I’ll certainly consider it! They’re neat, plus I talk a lot of shit about car centric infrastructure so it’d let me maintain some “insufferable” cred when I finally get another vehicle 🤣
