So let's look a little closer. This update claims "privacy first". So it gives you a VPN of nebulous origin... which will be a middle man for all your actual data... uh huh. Next they are slapping an AI spy window over the whole browser window to middle man all your interactions... uh huh.

So where's the fucking privacy mozilla? I shouldn't feel more confident in my privacy using a chromium based browser like Vivaldi than I do in the "privacy first" flagship mozilla browser, yet here we are.

As the old saying goes...

A drop of wine in sewage is sewage... a drop of sewage in wine is also sewage.

So yeah.. great... unity is noticing linux... that's about as cool as facebook noticing linux.

Quoting: pb

Quoting: GustyGhostFree and open internet <-----------(You are here)---------------------> The Great Western Firewall

Except the firewall is built around you and the only (back)door is locked with a state-owned key.

It's not a "firewall" ... it's a "wall of fire". Subtle but important differences.

Just make the EULA make it not available in CA and CO. See how long these idiot 'lawmakers' hold out when suddenly all their expensive data centers are illegal... and processing software for the entertainment industry is illegal... and half their city infrastructure is illegal... and game systems are illegal... etc. I'm sure none of that is relevant to California is it nuisance Newsom?

I hate this fucking timeline.

We should never have fucking needed a switch in the first place, mozilla... if that is your real name.

I love that the first instinct when something wholesome expires from trademark or copyright is just to make it cursed and shit on everyone's fond memories. /s

Quoting: kaktuspalme

Quoting: Durandal... and the current version being delisted, as usual. A bit of burying the lede there.

Though I personally get it, VIII for example, there's the Remastered and just VIII, which one should I choose?

When it's a barely-remaster like that, frankly, it should just be a single purchase that gets you both. But in the case of 8... they DO offer both for purchase still... so there is no reason they can't do that with 7. They're already saying that saves won't work from one to the next, so there's some structural change under the hood... meaning that all the community mods are likely going to break on this new version and who knows if it will be moddable. This was an issue with other games like Doom3 where the BFG version was just trash for modding and broke all the existing mods, so if you wanted them you had to make sure you had the original version.

Delisting games is just bs.
