Can this be used with proxmox?


LOL, I've been using it since Netscape Navigator 3.0 Gold, via Mozilla M3 (SeaMonkey tech preview), Phoenix, Firebird, and then finally Firefox :D


Me too. Too bad I had to abandon it because Mozilla seem more focused on making AI-nonsense than a browser nowadays. No, Firefox, you don’t need AI features. You do need a better UI. You do need smoother scrolling. You do need privacy focus (which automatically means you do not need AI features). You do need to feel like you belong on the platform you’re installed on and not wish everything were Linux. You do need better designers that understand UX is not just “add controls everywhere”.


I'm assuming you use Lynx now then? Because I don't think you would be using Chrome or its clone if that's where you draw the line?


I remember using lynx at school, since they only let A+ level students use the X11 GUI. And then later on using elinks which was a bit more featureful on my own servers...


Huh? What ai features? Firefox seems largely the same as it did a few years ago.

I’m not doubting they added some ai junk somewhere. But whatever they did seems very easy to ignore.


Its just an excuse people use to keep using thier beloved shiny brand.


Oh, those great days when the competition was NCSA Mosaic.

A simpler, better time. I miss it :(


Mosaic :P


Pretty sure I've seen you either at B-Sides or Polyglot... Small world...


I'll most likely be at Polyglot. I did a very small part to help organize one of the very early ones.


I'm looking forward to the next one in October.


It can track devices via their Bluetooth radiation. A lot of devices use randomized MAC addresses though, but probably not all.


When you though Ubisoft can't get any worse...


I've gotten very comfortable not owning Ubisoft games[1].

"Ubisoft Exec Says Gamers Need to Get 'Comfortable' Not Owning Their Games"

Nothing makes more comfortable than not playing Ubisoft games.


Apparently so have other gamers considering that Ubisoft's stock price has fallen over 90% in the last five years.


Actually, the intent was to preserve the sense of pride and accomplishment by motivating players to play through their purchases instead of hoarding them indefinitely. You think you want a permanent game library, but you don't. Do you guys not have free time? It shouldn't be that hard to finish a game well within its service life anyways.


What?

I’ve recently re-played games I enjoyed in the 90s.

I listen to my dad’s old vinyl records.

Why the hell should my game purchases evaporate after some arbitrary and unpredictable amount of time?


...I guess this is where one says, "woosh"?


I bought Farcry 3 Blood Dragon some years ago. I seem to recall I had to install some kind of mod otherwise the game would hang on startup or had long delays because the installed version tried to communicate with some long dead Ubisoft gaming service that they'd shut down the servers for years ago. Funny they were still willing to collect the money for the game that they no longer supported.

Half of the plot of Common Side Effects :)


Absolutely brilliant show. Highly recommend it to anyone. Feels like a hyper condensed version of the X-files but with a decent sense of humour to it as well.

Season two will be out next year and I am curious to see how it goes. Towards the end of season one, the side effects were starting to get interesting, possibilities of it turning dark abound.

I'm just glad that after Joe Bennets previous show Scavengers Reign got axed after one season that we will finally get to see some of his stuff expanded.


I thought Common Side Effects was great, then I watched Scavengers Reign. Absolutely mindblown. Possibly the best scifi _thing_ I've ever watched.

There's still hope for a second season FWIW. At least the story is mapped up, if not more preprod stuff, it's been a while since I looked into it.


I found a great sense of unease watching Scavengers Reign. So much so I haven't finished it yet...


Same here. That was definitely a "nuke it from orbit" type planet for me.


My first computer was a soviet clone of a ZX Spectrum, which started it all almost 40 years ago...
