What's wrong with Glenn Greenwald now? No one is caring to reply.

@philoup or maybe the solution is to just make apps more scriptable, such that you (or a developer) can write integrations between the software you use, yourself?

"the API is just as important as the UI"

@nate @philoup @eikedrescher

This is why I love : it stores data as Markdown or Org files but when running it turns them into a graph database you can query using from inside the app itself or via CLI. It can even expose API as a local HTTP server so that other apps can create ad-hoc GUI or programmatically edit your notes/tasks. Its data model is so flexible that let you store notes, tasks and a relational database of arbitrary objects where you define keys and values.

> it’s *so cool* that copy and paste actually works across every app. what’s the next clipboard, or the next url?

I would like a timeline of actions taken on different apps, the ability to revert some of them like we do with Ctrl+Z and to turn a bunch of them into a script that can be run against new documents.

Now report this as "Russian propaganda". I assume this video is a so-called computer generated deep fake, right?

Since 2014 the western part of Ukraine has been bombing the mostly Russian-speaking eastern part, 14,000 deaths recognized by the UN. The war started in 2014, not 2022 when Russia intervened.

In this 2019 video, President Putin, in the presence of Merkel, Macron and Zelensky, reiterated the need to apply the Minsk peace accords, signed years earlier by Ukraine and never implemented.

While President Putin talks about these very serious issues, the former cabaret artist Zelensky laughs like an idiot. The US is not even able to place a puppet that has the decency to respect human life.

Deutscher wird's nicht: Die Bewohner eines Gebäudes in Lützerath versuchten, eine Genehmigung für eine Fotovoltaikanlage zu erhalten, die ihnen mit Verweis auf den Denkmalschutz verweigert wurde. Nun konnte RWE das ganze Gebäude trotz Denkmalschutz abreißen.

"The research into Verra, the world’s leading carbon standard for the rapidly growing $2bn (£1.6bn) voluntary offsets market, has found that, based on analysis of a significant percentage of the projects, more than 90% of their rainforest offset credits – among the most commonly used by companies – are likely to be “phantom credits” and do not represent genuine carbon reductions."

So greenwashing schemes do not work as advertised? Who'd have thought?

@daviddelven This is why I explicitly NEVER say "please like and subscribe" in videos.

Pocket could, just like Firefox Send, have become a highly needed income generator for Mozilla. Instead, it became just another waste of money.

Anyone who has participated in real protests knows that this does not happen. @gretathunberg

@Xna_NaJu @pj @aebrockwell @hasmis @freemo

It's funny that the exact same term is used with the opposite meaning by other people.

@julia_

Sorry, I just wanted to understand people who are OK with Mozilla but not with Brave.

Like, Mozilla are the good guys and Brave the bad ones... come on...

This is not about Firefox, it's about from where Mozilla takes money, how they use them and questionable decisions like buying Pocket, promise to make it Open Source but instead keeping it proprietary and poorly integrating it in Firefox with multiple flags needed to disable it.

Then there is the decision of not turning Gecko in something that can compete with CEF and the reasons we have so many Chromium-based browsers.

There is the decision of giving up on (real) PWA for desktop despite Mozilla promoted the concept ante literam even with a Web based mobile OS.

And I can go on for a while... Mozilla has become a disgrace for Firefox in the recent years, way worse for us than Brave that is just another Chromium-based browser.

@julia_

I was talking about using ffprofile.com/ in less then 10 min etc vs clicking "install" for LibreWolf.

If you read more carefully maybe...

@julia_

It's way easier to just install LibreWolf. Many people need an "install" icon. LibreWolf is on FlatHub so it's a great choice for Linux users.

Also no Mozilla branding, no more trademarked Firefox.

@julia_

No, sorry, promoting VPN providers as private is something I can't tolerate from Mozilla.

What the hell

There is nothing private about a provider, the acronym stands for the technology involved not to the service.

Using a VPN provider means trusting it instead of your ISP (Internet Service Provider). It is not more private at all, it just depends on who you prefer to trust.

Very bad for Mozilla that once promoted on the Web.

@julia_

Also just opened Twitter to check Firefox profile and found a very bad thing:

twitter.com/firefox/status/161

They just promoted VPNs as something "private". There is nothing private about a VPN provider, the acronym stands for the technology involved not to the service.

Very bad for Mozilla that once promoted privacy on the Web.

@julia_

Care to reply to the rest too and not only on accepting cryptocurrencies (the only thing they retracted after community outcry)? Are you really OK with what Mozilla became in the recent years? I am not.

There is LibreWolf if you want to promote the diversity of web engines without supporting Mozilla.

@julia_

Please do something about too, they pay their CEO an absurd amount of money, they spend money on useless left-y political campaigns, they take money from Google, they still haven't open sourced Pocket after years, they wanted to accept cryptocurrencies as donations and so on...
