Google, Microsoft, OpenAI and startup form body to regulate AI development
  • An oversight board comprised of the very people who are most likely to abuse AI? What could possibly go wrong?!

  • Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible
  • IMO there are none. They are all janky. Your best bet, (and what I may start doing), is to make separate folders in your bookmarks bar and add any tabs you want in there as a group. Not ideal but it works.

  • I use FF. But I also use Chromium based browsers out of necessity. I understand where you’re coming from but what’s also going to screw us is Mozilla not keeping up with the latest features which is something they’ve struggled with. At the end of the day they have to give people a reason to switch and use FF as their main browser. Simply saying “better privacy features” isn’t enough for the average user.

  • Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible
  • Which ones? Besides sending a tab from mobile to desktop it doesn’t have tab groups or vertical tabs. Those features rely on extensions and/or custom css.

  • So basically every software/front-end web dev? Lol ok.

  • Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible
  • Yes. Because the UI and UX of a tool that you use everyday matters. The average user will hold ease of use over privacy 9 times out of 10. In my case though I wasn’t able to use FF for a while due to the lack of debugger support for a project I was working on. Now it comes down to me having to work on multiple projects at once so tab groups and organization are key. Now don’t get me wrong, once Chrome totally kills adblockers I’ll drop Chromium browsers like a bad habit, but the point still stands though, FF could use some UI improvements.

  • Yeah I thought it had that feature already but I wasn’t seeing it. I’ll have to look again.

  • I just wish Firefox would improve their UI and add a few features without needing to rely on extensions (tab groups, vertical tabs, sharing tabs from mobile to desktop, etc.).

  • The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion - 20-07-2023
  • Been playing Cultic on Steam Deck and Street Fighter 6 on PS5. Cannot wait for the new Armored Core!

  • [ APP STORE RELEASE ] Mlem for Lemmy is live on the App Store!
  • Why can I not find it by searching in the App Store?

  • What are some of your favorite lyrics?
  • “Something kinda sad about the way that things have come to be. Desensitized to everything, what became of subtlety? And how can this mean anything to me if I really don’t feel anything at all?

    Tool - Stinkfist

    “Maybe I will always haunt you. Mark the somnolence with truth. Better hang your dead palace. Than have a living home to lose. In the River Ganges, God damns my name.”

    The Mars Volta - Vicarious Atonement

  • Horror
  • It’s a short read but when it comes to horror I always recommend The Hellbound Heart by Clive Barker.

  • Gaming hot takes?
  • IMO Final Fantasy is not good. I’ve tried playing several of the games but every time the story is so cliche and overly complicated. I’ve been told “oh just try a different one. This version is better!” If I have to try that hard to enjoy a franchise it’s just not for me.

  • Easily one of my favorites
  • Just showed this to my mom. She said “psh those are rookie numbers”. 💀
