nice work

if?

why does it seem like a very poor choice to you, exactly?

as for using an adapter, it's one extra thing to carry and also difficult to charge with simultaneously

from their site (radix.website):

.store, .online, .tech, .site, .fun, .pw, .host, .press, .space, .uno, .website

not sure about other registrars

seems like no one else got that. tough crowd.

what is the math you're doing, exactly?

also, I don't think a dozen devs is enough to support a competitive browser

anyway, companies are far(!) from just devs

this is sarcasm, right?

That's not what they're talking about here, though, is it? They have premium offerings as well, which LLMs are causing people to not buy.

Put another way: Adam said traffic to their docs was down 40% and revenue was down 80%. I don't think it's purely traffic-driven revenue.

and if you're a chrome user on desktop (I use ff), helium might be worth a try

full disclosure: one of the devs is a friend of mine

if for some reason you want to use webkit on desktop (linux), there's always gnome web, but in my experience it can't handle anything beyond very basic browsing (for example, a youtube video will cause it to crash)

I'm a kagi fan, but my family members who I've had try orion ran into quite a few issues. Might be worth trying one of these with regular safari:

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/wipr-2/id1662217862

on android I use firefox with the regular ublock origin extension

are you on android or iOS?

please just try TLS

last I checked, firefox doesn't download AI models unless you try to use a (clearly-labeled) feature that requires them. you can also manage/uninstall them at about:addons

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/on-device-models

totally uncharitable interpretation of the quote linked here aside, how is providing an interface for using fully local models not user first software?

I didn't read it that way. I read it as him acknowledging that would be a poor choice and therefore that mozilla won't do it.

the content itself is also LLM-generated. go ahead, just say what you mean.

unlikely, at least not during this generation. even putting aside the current admin, the US has (to put it extremely lightly) long failed to police its own and certain "allies'" behavior, which undermines the concept altogether.

at this point, there are unfortunately no "good guys" at the state level.

generations

all of the content on your site is clearly LLM-generated

fair enough. I'll add that one fantastic use I've found for LLMs is quickly checking the source of a given addon (though obviously this is no replacement for a real audit or finely-grained permissions).

I'd be doing this type of thing a lot more if browsers didn't make it difficult to load unpacked addons (in which case I could be modifying things I didn't like on the fly).

very interesting. thanks for sharing!

is everyone designing their own silicon getting so much additional them-specific utility out of it that it's actually worth it?

at least on firefox, you can also just disallow automatic updates

brutal. I just typed out a much longer response and lost it when my time wasting extension saw the url change (time for a text area cache extension?)

you might find this useful: https://github.com/classvsoftware/under-new-management

my port (and now fork): https://github.com/maxtheaxe/under-new-management-firefox

they currently (PRs are welcome!) only check listing info. mine doesn't route requests through an external (non addon store) server.

a couple PRs are overdue on mine due to linting making the diffs impossible. I'll get to it. (see the wxt-migration branch)

out of curiosity, what's the motivation behind trying to reduce your extension usage everywhere?

had to uninstall this right away. among other things, every key shortcut is already in use elsewhere (and they cannot be changed)

for reference: alt+shift+s, alt+shift+u, and alt+shift+d

just a heads up: the verification emails land in spam

the former

I'm not and that's not my position. I thought I made it pretty clear in multiple previous comments that I think the way the US wields its power, especially considering the absolute lack of due process, is wrong. This French judge is a perfect example of some of the pitfalls and avenues for abuse.

I agree with your overall point (hence "all of the above is true") and am merely trying to make it clear that the guy you're talking about is a nazi and that I think it detracts from the argument. There are plenty of better examples.

not arguing with the primary issue at hand, I just don't think we should be using a neo-nazi as the example

I'm not editorializing here. here's one of many examples:

"Please, Donald Trump, kill the Jews, down to the last woman and child. Leave nothing left of the Jewish menace..."

re: ukraine, I'm not sure how that's remotely relevant here and frankly I think you're doing ukrainians a profound disservice by comparing the two

if you look at my background, you'll see I understand this better than most
