I remember when climate activists were storming this factory and Lemmy users berated me for calling out the fact that Tesla factories and electric cars in general are a fucking disaster for the environment. It’s pathetic how easily people are convinced that 10 tonnes of e-waste is the solution to the toxic sludge slowly drowning us all

Mozilla has loads of projects, not just the browser. I doubt more than a 30 work exclusively on the engine nowadays.

Andreas Kling, the founder and lead dev, has a massive love for Twinings tea and spent a few Dev logs working on improving their website with the end goal being ordering his tea from them :)

It would be nice if people read the post and the project before randomly making assumptions such as implying the project started from scratch yesterday or its run by some amateurs, this is a 4 year old project! It’s founded by a former KHTML/Webkit developer for Apple!

Sure, but an individual website may use only a few of those standards. Ladybird devs will pick a website they like to use - Reddit, Twitter, Twinings tea, etc. and improve adherence to X or Y standards to make that one website look better. In turn, thousands of websites suddenly work perfectly, and many others work better than before.

Ladybird is largely conformant to the majority of HTML standards now. It’s about the edge cases (and where standards aren’t followed by websites) and performance. This isn’t a new project.

Ladybird was born from SerenityOS, which is a hobbyist unix-like (or POSIX compliant?) OS that simply aimed to do things “from the ground up”. It just happened that they needed to make a browser, and the response was to make one from scratch.

From there it seemed to have brought a lot of attention organically to the point where it can stand on its own, but originally it was never intended to be a “third browser engine” from its inception.

I’ve seen some impressive traction on newer videos putting Linux on (intel) Apple devices for example. Purely anecdotal but regularly hitting 100k+ views on Linux videos is something that I’ve only seen in the last year or so and moreso on videos documenting “hardware restoration”.

registry switch that’ll mysteriously reset itself. we’ve had this shit with countless windows configurations at work that our IT guy has to battle with on the regular.

270GB feels insane for the source code of a single organisation. Is there media assets or backups in there too?

EDIT: yep, multiple subsidiaries and slack Comms which could inflate it by a lot. we post a whole lot of uncompressed shit on our slack

With what money? SpaceX is the only company with any kind of steady revenue to its name and that’s only because the US government subsidised it

the last functional windows.

we do a bit of entrapment

I don’t (never played Xbox til the end of its lifecycle) what did they do? 👀

Not if you call it GNU/Linux 🤓☝️

The trick to writing a JavaScript web app is that first you consider literally any other technology to solve your problem and only then consider using javascript.

Average linux experience is the “hey I think im getting used to this OS now!” followed by “where’s my bootloader”

It’s in testing and/or sid atm but the keepass dev has argued back and forth with the debian maintainer who basically just said “suck it up buttercup” and refused to change back, so it’ll cause a lot of fun times once it lands in the next debian release lol

ngl this looks pretty slick. Good stuff!

Good spot! I’ve been putting [feature request] in the title lmao. Good to know this is a feature

Sure but you still gotta wait half a second for the filter to update or you’ll still open the wrong map. I do the same typing “discor” only to open Discover every damn time.
