Simple, effective, doesn't make my home folder any more of a mess than I already left it as.

Needs more red circles

Sometimes you really have to stop and ask yourself what the fuck is going on at Mozilla's HQ. It's insane how they manage to shoot themselves in the foot at least once a week.

Isn't the entire point of the Rome Statute that the country accepts the court's jurisdiction involving international crimes and crimes against humanity as higher than that of any national court? I'm not an expert, but I imagine this defeats the point of signing the statute in the first place.

Lula's always been pretty good with calling out other people's bullshit around Latin America, it isn't particularly surprising that he'd do that (and the same applies to Biden). Shame that he doesn't have the courage to do the same with Russia though, even if that's more because Russia has held Brazil's agricultural market by the balls for a while now.

I don't really see the problem as long as they're still working because they enjoy doing it, rather than being forced to do it to survive.

Nah, some people just really suck at being assertive (and/or have really bad social anxiety).

I really don't see how supporting Manifest V3 is a problem. It's still going to be used by many extension developers, and there's no harm in its availability as long as you can still block WebRequest, which is currently the case. On the Mozilla taking Google's money point, sure, that's true, but it doesn't seem to have affected too much of the browser, other than search defaults abd a few other things that can be very easily turned off or removed entirely. I wouldn't say the chances are particularly high for Manifest V2 to be completely removed, personally.

Sounds like the person you're married to is kind of a dick, honestly. Thinking less of other people for not understanding your own unclear language just shows a massive lack of introspection. As a local autism, though, I definitely disagree with the last point, as a significant difference between someone who has autism and someone who doesn't is that language is understood differently (I would know), and that means you can both understand and be understood incorrectly very easily. This post is kind of deliberately divisive anyway, but I believe the point of saying something and being misunderstood, despite your best efforts (hopefully), still stands.

I wouldn't say that's particularly surprising. Most people in Lemmy and similar platforms have been here since the mass exodus from Reddit, or are programmers themselves. These groups are usually more privacy-minded, and see this as a significant privacy issue. This doesn't really necessarily mean it's an echo chamber though, I've seen a lot of people talk about how they use and like Windows, and I think the reason why they downvoted your comment (making an assumption here, I don't see downvotes in my instance) is because it seems to be completely unprompted by anything or anyone, and a bit abrasive.

Why are you blamimg the developer team? It seems like management would be more to blame, given most of the time, they are the ones that overpromise on stuff like this, then work the developers to the bone until they inevitably fail to deliver on the absurd expectations set by their higher-ups. I'm not entirely familiar with the details for this case, but I know Take-Two are the exact kind of company that pulls this idiotic stunt with every dev team they have under their belt, as has been shown time and time again with so many games they publish.

Edit: Having done a bit of due dilligence, it seems that Intercept Games was created as a part of Private Division after they were bought out by Take-Two, which in my opinion just reinforces the perspective that the dev team had little to no say in how the game was marketed or released.

It's almost like other people exist, and almost like they're affected in a different way than you are by who is in charge of the government. Seriously though, I thought "it doesn't affect me, so it must not be a problem" wasn't supposed to be an actual argument.
