Firefox (nee Phoenix) was born out of Netscape after it was open-sourced, it was a stripped down alternative to the bloated Netscape Communicator which became the Mozilla Suite. So, yes, it had nothing to do with Safari or Chrome.

Mozilla’s browser exploded onto the scene in 2002 with the explicit intention of disrupting the monopoly Safari and Chrome had long enjoyed and providing web users with a greater diversity of options.

While Firefox’s desktop client had about 244 million reported active monthly users in 2018, that number has sagged to just under 50 million in the intervening years.

is still the funniest thing Star Wars has ever done. Like Star Wars has a lot of dumb just go with the flow don’t think to much about moments, but that by far was the funniest thing ever.

Just buy Pixel phones and ignore the other ones then. Why does their existence prevent you from enjoying Android? It doesn’t make much sense...

watching a restart with just one car on the grid was a first for me

Windows 11 Pro allows you to use it without creating a microsoft account. Also there’s no way you always have to be connected to the internet. That’s just silly. I think you misunderstood something. You just need the internet while setting it up so you can log in to your microsoft account.

Knowing little about swimming (other than swimming laps for exercise in college) but just seeing the numbers and that’s honestly impressive. I was thinking it would be a second or two faster but that’s a noticeable difference.

don’t spread misinformation. the internet connection and microsoft account are only needed at installation. you can remove them afterward. have fun with a PC that is never connected to the Internet.

It was clear, from the quote, that she wasn’t being serious.

I mean her response, in the article, is terrible and doesn’t address that she was filming complete strangers at the gym for the purpose of mocking their bodies. Never mind the fact that she herself has breast implants and heavily edits her photos. She’s an all-around garbage human being.

I get why Kotaku and others may cover streamers

it seems a bit odd to pick a specific beat that she addressed in a pretty reasonable manner, at least to me.

The “it’s just a joke” defense doesn’t fly for most people anymore, and shouldn’t fly for her either.

This is my problem with most of their streamer coverage. It dedicates far too many words to people who are basically famous for being famous. At best, they serve as modern day Geisha (the real ones, not courtesans), though their tool kits seems more shallow in exchange for higher accessibility.

Yeah, I hate it when Kotaku or any site really gives puff pieces to assholes like this. It really feels like the article just takes her side that it was meant to be a “joke” and just never comes back to that. Because “ironic” bigotry eventually results in actual bigotry.

If you click on the article it’s one of the oldest homes in the US and no, I didn’t mean descendants of Lincoln.

I disagree that conservative perspectives are the ‘norm’ across media, whatever ‘norm’ even means I’m unsure. But apparently it doesn’t matter because only you are allowed to speak on what is conservative and liberal I’m not ‘qualified’. Talk about needing to climb down from your cross...
