Arkenfox is simply a set of configuration you can (and should) apply yourself onto a clean Firefox installation.

A fork means taking the source code and modifying it directly, not providing an alternative configuration file.

Arkenfox is not a fork FYI

I think Whoogle does that?

The “NO AI” clause is conditional, though.

As mentioned in their FAQ, they will reverse that rule when it is “viable in terms of data privacy and ethicality”

unless the rampant ethical and data privacy issues around datasets are resolved via regulation.

Whilst they aren’t VC-Backed, their servers already had to do nearly 10 upgrades, their “AI Detection” is backed by another, third-party AI, and it’s not transparent what said service is.

And to top it off, it’s a closed ecosystem. You upload your art there, and either Cara dies one day and your following is gone, or they change their policies, leadership or anything else, at which point everyone will have to move again

it’s yet another case where the Fediverse and other Federated networks address the core issue that lead to this disaster - content ownership - better than systems like these do. I’m not hopeful for Cara.

NPUs existed before recall and have other uses apart from that.

Just FYI, SearX is dead. Long live SearXNG

Alternative Title: Google CEO Sundar Pichai on Bullshit-Powered search and the future of the Hellfire we used to call the “Internet”

FYI: xManager itself is Open-Source, Spotify obviously isn’t.

no I don’t believe a damn word of what apple’s gonna say on this, I just wanted to get the message out there that generally file deletion works by allowing data to be overwritten, so if the images are local this could very well just be that either it’s showing data that hasn’t been overwritten yet or it accidentally brought things out of the “recently deleted” depending on how long ago it was deleted.

no when I say “overwritten” I mean that the area is set as deleted in the filesystem and the next time something writes to that area the data that was there before is disregarded.

yeah cuz for normal, day-to-day use that’s exponentially slower the more you’re deleting

You can do that when you wipe something.

I mean, to be completely fair, that’s how data storage works.

We cannot really just make data disappear, so we let it get overwritten instead

activism.

it sucks but can you blame them?

For picking discord I very much can blame them, I figure it won’t be long until that goes down the drain too.

Just so you know, the actual source code for this project mentions both Jamulator and another project that did this for the N64.

(the sync can actually be self-hosted and is OSS, the DRM is third-party and proprietary)

“Inside the EU” in the sense of “its headquartered in the EU” or in the sense of “available in the EU”?

either way, I’ve heard lots of people here vouch for Tidal.

The case is essentially “hey you kinda passed a bill that’s against your own constitution? You’re kinda supposed to follow that…”

They are technically not wrong when they say that the whole experience isn’t made up of just an App

They are intentionally dodging the ACTUAL question.

Anyways here is a leak of their “LAM”, which is just playwright for the most part. https://web.archive.org/web/20240424133441if_/https://pixeldrain.com/api/file/vYHXbUwP?download

With that, we have both components, yay?

iMessage can also run over e-mail.

And RCS was designed by the GSMA which is effectively a bunch if telecommunications companies.
