How does the old saying go?

Ah, yes: “This is funny because it is true”

Even if they did so, isn’t Firefox entirely open source? At least their work could be forked (though I agree if they don’t have the resources, hardly anyone else could make it)

An old meme, with a beautiful new spin.

I’m lovin’ it!

Sweet!

Laughs in posting on the arXiv 😜

We should all probably start donating to Firefox. Isn’t Google their main source of income?

There might come a time when they prefer to gut Firefox, forcing Mozilla to either reject uBlock Origin or die (or they could simply pull the plug on funding knowing they’ll earn more when people go back to Chrome-based browsers)

This dude rocks! Not only are they good and dressed like a toon, but they have no shame and keep one-upping themselves going faster and faster!

This time is as good as any to cite Maroon 5’s “payphone” and link to its gloriously dumb video, which I contend being in the top 10 dumbest videos ever (I don’t want to claim it’s got the top spot, since maybe there are other gems I am ignoring)

Edit: grammar

You don’t say, Sherlock

Off topic shout out: why not Chaco sandals for home and/or for going out?

It’s off topic, but OP mentioned having used sandals, so he can maybe consider them a good option

This is so deliciously nerdy

Nomen omen?

I finally had a minute to try it out and unfortunately it does not seem to change anything on my 2020 Mac+Intel (the GPU load skyrockets when I watch videos on YouTube)

Well, you’re right in principle, but with my (old, but current) Mac+Intel configuration Firefox is not as sleek as Chrome and also often Firefox turns the fan on while Chrome doesn’t (it may just be that Google is bricking Firefox when you’re on YouTube, for example)

Anyhow, I’m trying to use Firefox as much as I can (I’ve always done so), but it’s always been true it was a better experience to use Chrome on my setup (and I’ve never used Safari)

Edit: why the downvotes? To teach me a lesson? I said he’s right, but I do have an actual problem and cannot yet make the full move (and am going to check out the suggestions below. Thanks!)

That hits too close to home…

I almost feel like there’s an answer there for you, but I can’t put my finger on it.

However, last night I had a vision about th singer of Motorhead. I think it means something…

I know it’s a meme, but I can’t resist saying that if you check his website out, you’ll see he has all of his books and drafts available entirely for free and he also says he’s agreed with the publisher to cap the book’s price to something reasonable (which used to be true, I haven’t checked now).

He’s also nice in person, if you talk to him!

It’s too bad that the meme is right and his legacy will be not having given solution to any problem 😁

Edit: fixed grammar

When I receive things like this, I make sure to open Gmail from within Firefox with all extensions meant to defend me (like NoScript, unlock origin, privacy badger, https everywhere) and then I hover over the gigantic button “check my activity” and see if it leads to a accounts.google.com link.

Either way, I then copy the link address without clicking on it, and open it in a private window to see what happens. If it’s a scam, the page it opens has a legit looking, but wrong google address (aka, it cannot really end with google.com). Then I just stop having fun and don’t continue nor type anything

What does it look like in your case?

Goddamn you, I started laughing loudly and people stared at me. Have an upvote!

“TurboTax must die”

That would be the perfect title of a multi billion dollar franchise about rebels from the IRS tryijg to thwart known scammers from Intuit.
