That’s what makes software legacy; it falls out of popularity. Plenty of terminal applications have barely changed since the 80s, but they’re not “legacy” because they’re actively used and maintained.

“somehow or other” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

Brother. Mozilla is the only browser company letting you keep those things, so you’re not “moving” anywhere. And every feature they’ve announced is not targeted at you; your (and my) customized setup where we never see an ad and leave minimal trace is still fully supported. The PPA is designed to improve the state of Web advertising as a whole, and improve the situation for the normal user who is basically leaving a rich personal history on every site they visit.

You know the fediverse doesn’t make its own browser right

Idgaf about “eyesores,” but I am very supportive of efforts to make sure that solar farms are designed in ecologically responsible ways. Far too many effectively raze the underlying ecosystem in order to maximize coverage, when slightly less efficient land usage can allow the same species to flourish after construction.

I mean, I’m assuming that because that’s what he’s saying in the text.

That’s not what the post is about, it’s entirely about the android TV app. I assume they already built the functionally to generate the alarm signal (since it’s the entire raison d’etre for the company based on the name).

Good God I hate linkedin types. Imagine thinking writing an app that literally just displays a single notification is worthy of making a whole post about. They basically wrote a Hello World app for Android TV. And I’m sure they got paid like 40k by some poor school district to do so.

Dawg, it is a direct quote from the Forbes article. Read it again I guess?

Yeah but that’s based

I really like how deadlock does it; you just have to hit the creep with player damage in the last few seconds of its life, and then your whole lane gets the reward, which can’t be denied. But it also generates a little orb that can be secured by either team; if no one pops it, it automatically goes to the killing team. It has the HOTS thing where farm gets shared pretty much evenly among everyone in the lane, but there’s still enough gameplay to the creep killing that it’s engaging, instead of just standing in lane passively and getting XP for it.

Eh, there was definitely a couple years where the market was flooded, but at this point there really aren’t any notable games in the genre other than League, Dota, and Smite. Deadlock being a third person game puts it in direct competition with Smite, though it’s also got more shooter DNA, which is aiming to bring in the overwatch crowd refugees. And at least IMO it already feels better than Smite, or any of the other abortive attempts at a third person moba over the years.

Been really enjoying this, much more than I ever liked Smite. They have a ton of great ability and item designs from Dota to draw on, but it’s significantly more approachable. I really like how the last hitting and denying works. The balance is still getting dialed in but I’m having a good time while it does.

My caps is backspace, try it and you’ll never look back (though Ctrl is good too). It’s actually part of the colemak layout that I use.

Your comment is highly ironic given that the API in question is an effort to reduce the amount of personal data collected by advertisers.

That’s why they did it in sets of three. They could just give every user a blank text box for every option, but doing it this way makes it far easier to analyze the data in bulk.

That’s kind of overzealous. I would expect most desktop users to run kernel updates without being plugged into a UPS, this is functionally identical. It’s not like it’s an unrecoverable error, but yeah if you’re updating a critical system you should have redundancies in place.

I don’t mean it as a derogative, but there’s a certain point at which you have to either go whole hog on minimizing your digital footprint, or accept that some companies are gonna know more about you than you would maybe prefer. I think the Firefox defaults are much less onerous than, say, signing up for a loyalty program with any major retailer, and you can disable the few things that do any tracking.

Yeah it seems half the commenters missed OP’s clarifying comment and just think he started a kernel update with 2% battery life.

Yeah IMO there is nothing in vanilla Firefox to complain about that you can’t disable easily from the settings. You only need librewolf or the arkenfox user.js if you’re a privacy nut.
