Murderer is a noun. Once you've murdered that's what you are, regardless of past or present or future. People can change, but that doesn't change what you've done in the past and have become, because you can't undo what you did.
6 months to 5 years isn't "A long time ago" btw. I think it takes at least a decade to start considering something a long time ago.
That's a really concise and thoughtless way to excuse Google, Microsoft and Apple for monetizing spying on every person on earth for profit.
Nice strawman you got there. I think anyone with eyes can see I didn't bring them up because most (all?) Lemmy users know Firefox and its forks exist.
And yes, Linux distros have a business model. I'm happy that distros found a business model through offering official support to corporations, it makes it truly free to the rest of us. It also helps that their competition is very expensive. Will that model work for a browser? What do you think?
That's... Literally how browsers used to work. Netscape was a paid browser. Orion is starting to look into that model as well.
And yes, you just pointed out of possible to raise funds without pulling the shit Brave has, as Linux distros have done... So, congrats on getting the point? A little slow, but you got there.
It's still being kept up to date, just not getting new features, and the security issues have been patched up as they come along. It's not a dead project yet. Maintaining Librewolf isn't impossible since Firefox is doing the heavy lifting.
The main issue is mostly that it relies on Firefox.
Honestly, I don't mind the paid browser route. Browsers, and a lot of software, used to be paid, and it feels like things were less shit when some of it was.
I think ideally we'd see 2 versions of software like some used to be in the 90s - a free, stripped down version that only does basic functions (think Microsoft WordPad Vs Microsoft Word) and a pair full version. This model can still allow FOSS to exist as well, like perhaps having LibreOffice as is, and then having an enterprise version that has additional networking features and support that's paid for businesses, with all money from that going into the maintenance of LibreOffice.
Why did the dealership buy more Teslas with that money instead of a different brand?
What if they use it as part of the art tho?
Like a horror game that uses an AI to just slightly tweak an image of the paintings in a haunted building continuously everytime you look past them to look just 1% creepier?
This isn't unsweetened tea either. It's probably very sweet considering how high in the order agave syrup is
Couches would be cheaper?
Russia has already defaulted on some loans. China's second biggest trade partner is USA (EU is first but trade is more balanced between the two than USA), so this would hurt China greatly as well.
Seems to me EU would benefit the most.
Because they don't have to worry about fuck ups. Americans are gonna do jack shit about it. Otherwise something would have already been done.
Leftists don't let Nazis get into power, even if it means dealing with corporatists some more years.
You're not a leftist. You did nothing to avoid the farthest of the right-wing from gaining possibly absolute power. You did nothing to keep things leftward, or even center right - you just allowed the fascists to take over without a struggle.
You're not the resistance, you're not a helper, you're not leftist; you're nothing.
It's funny you think there will be legitimate elections in 4 years. I mean Republicans are already pushing ways to give Trump a third term. So like, congrats on having Gaza screwed even harder while simultaneously throwing away any semblance of democracy?
At least the corporate corrupt Dems gave a small window for changing things democratically while not screwing over Trans people in the USA as well.
By abstaining you allowed the greater evil to prevail, not prevented any evil from occuring.
And then he ended up with the Pine twins! Next thing you know, a damn triangle is messing up the space time continuum
