Don’t forget that Alt+F4 takes a screenshot when you’re playing your favorite multi-player video game.

Time to get an EV you can charge at home 😎

Think of this fact the next time people list off all the “downsides” of owning an EV… like never going to the gas station.

Microsoft is once again injecting pop-up ads into Google Chrome on Windows in a bid to get people to switch to Bing ( www.theverge.com )

The software giant first introduced malware-like pop-up ads last year with a prompt that appeared over the top of other apps and windows. After pausing that notification to address “unintended behavior,” the pop-ups have returned again on Windows 10 and 11....

laughs in Linux desktop

Why do people continue to put up with this? I don’t get any ads or bloatware like “Paint 3D” or “X Box” on Linux Mint. And Linux desktops are so easy to use now! Blows my mind that people tolerate these antics from Microsoft.

Okay hear me out. What if we all chipped in 5 bucks to @firefox? How many people would it take to fund it well enough so they don’t have to do layoffs? I get it, the FOSS community wants the “F” part but we all should contribute some for good infrastructure. And the idea that search engine payments from Google is what keeps Firefox afloat should worry us all. We need browser engine diversity if the web is going to stay open and not littered with walled gardens any more than it already is.

Fun fact: non-profits are required to report the incomes of their highest paid employees on IRS form 990. In 2022, Mark Surman was paid $344,483. This is well below executive pay in Silicon Valley, and on par with normal software engineer pay in the same area according to GlassDoor.

Sure, some executives are overpaid, but this is very much not the case here.

It’s worth it to find out before spewing hate and bias.
