    You make good points but some people are knew jerking on Firefox’s AI. One of them is client side translation which is really neat as I don’t need to send the content to some Google ad data vacuum.

    Another AI model helps differently abled people to have websites described to them using, again, a local model.

    There is also Libtefox which uses the same rendering engine without the other stuff if you don’t want it.

    I consider it an important act to use non Chromium browsers as not to completely hand over the power of rendering web content to Google.

    Exactly, like all religions anybody can dig into the texts and find a justification for their personal and political views but the Jesus I was brought up with, while I don’t believe he existed, had some pretty decent key points (forgiveness, love, sharing, empathy, charity…). These contrast strongly with the judgemental, conservative, nationalist, racist “Christians”.

    They would probably have hung this “rebellious, commie jew” themselves today if their much-awaited second coming had taken place.

    It makes so much more fundamental sense for the followers of Jesus to embrace socialist values as opposed to the tendency of Christians to follow both conservative and capitalistic politics.

    I’m an atheist but I was raised Christian Catholic and the stark contrast between the religious texts and parables with the actions of the average Christian or the Church was a great contributor to my rejection of religion. I still see value in some of the teachings (be nice to others, people before material things) and always took them closer to socialism values than the Supply Side Jesus right-leaning Christians adopted.

    Tom Wheeler. Sorry, I had to look up the name. He succeeded the professional ass clown that was Ajit Pai, seemed like another Republican Telecom shill coming from the industry to further errode the regulatory agency.

    Turns out he had made his start in Telecom and the big players ate up his small company. He seemed to have joined them but he secretly had an ax to grind or at least the public’s best interest in mind.

    Top notch guy. Greatest anime betrayals right there.
