@bnys according to the financial numbers they’ve sporadically released: literally millions of dollars each are going to the people directly responsible for this, as the few pure browser developers left at mozilla (who are excellent people in a terrible situation) make far less than they should

@semievolved @zzt directive 4 is classified, just like Robocop

@zzt Viewing on my Pi, I was curious if the slop video at the top continued to play while I scrolled further down the article. I couldn't quite figure it out using the scroll wheel (moves too far), so tried with the scrollbar.

I say tried, because it's been a while since I used it in Firefox and it's now desperately thin. Just to add to the torrent of paper cuts.

@zzt @ifixcoinops Wow. It’s so bad it managed to make me hate Liquid Ass a little more, even.

We Choose Humanity: We need to build for human agency—tech that fuels creativity and fiercely protects privacy.

I feel so creatively inspired when I have AI slop shoved into my face at every possible turn, in every ad, every billboard, every supermarket product.

And yes, please tell me Mozilla Foundation, how you plan on protecting my privacy in the infinitely vast Scrooge McDuck pool of tasty tasty personal user data.

@zzt why are these videos flashing so much holy shit

@tehstu @zzt The scrollbar is smaller on purpose, they chose to make it more annoying.

@zzt That is some broken brain shit right there

@zzt I assume that "doing for AI what we did for the web" means backtracking on open standards to compete with Microsoft and watching their market share drop to sub-5%.

@lunareclipse @zzt Well you see, firefox corporate drones get firmware updates the same way the Timex DataLink watch did in the 90s. Flashing lights.

Can't remember,

Becoming disabled sure has it's perks.

@hawyer what, you don’t like open source* LLMs?

* extremely thin open source wrappers around binary blobs provably based on a leaked proprietary model which was itself based on plagiarized and pirated text, images, and videos sourced by unethically scraping the web in the most destructive manner ever devised**

** when convenient mozilla ignores this definition and pretends we’re talking about Firefox’s subpar pre-LLM translation feature that should itself probably be a plugin

bredroll@mas.to

@zzt @hawyer exactly, if you can't compile it from nothing but a compiler, it isn't open source, and probably isn't trustworthy

@semievolved @zzt don't be unfair, off by 2 errors are easy to make

ewhac@mastodon.social

@zzt Good freaking grief, how much money did they waste on this?

This doesn't even rise to the level of a Ron Popeil ad -- because at least he *knew* what he was selling.
