Being on an SSRI helps.

I've found that the answer depends on what region of the US you're from. The UK probably does it differently, but I'm with @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world. If it's dark out, you're definitely greeting with "good evening."

It's fine to criticize Mozilla for taking money from Google, but you would also have to accept that Firefox wouldn't exist without it. Google revenue is something like 80% of the revenue Mozilla receives in a year.

Google has now legally been declared a monopoly so they no longer have a reason to be paying Mozilla.

In fact it may be that Google is no longer allowed to pay Mozilla to make Google the default search engine on Firefox. If this is the case you will get to see how well they do without that money.

To be clear, I don't like that Mozilla is taking this money either, but the only way they're going to be able to stay afloat is by taking money from someone. Unless everyone who uses Firefox donates regularly to Mozilla.

He's just a director that will take a variety of projects.

I wonder what the source is because in 1784, Connecticut made claims on the northeast part of Ohio (the Western Reserve). Virginia did have a claim on some part of central/southwest Ohio called the Virginia Military District, but that's all I'm aware of.

Same. I've read that this is because that part of your brain isn't functioning or something. I have no source. Just "I think I heard this once."

They're absolutely right. I don't believe this.

We don't have parliamentary supremacy. What we have is what we have. A rough equivalent is that (assuming you're a UK citizen) the Lords could still veto bills and the Commons couldn't force the issue.

That's some catch, that catch 22.

No harm done. It's just Lemmy.

What a shame.

I think he has changed his views since then.
