I do not disagree, but I was surprised when it claimed to have consciousness and that AI should have rights.

You should name it Hawk, so people can call it Hawk-Tui.

So is Visual Studio basically dead at this point? Are any new programmers choosing to use it?

Yes, but no.

The source code for Netscape Navigator was open-sourced and has become Mozilla Firefox. The company Netscape is now a mostly defunct brand while Mozilla is a non-profit, public benefit company in service to the Mozilla Foundation, and the Mozilla community.

A lot of great comments here. I just wanted to add that even just your ip address is enough to roughly track your location. When your phone checks gmail you are leaving digital breadcrumbs in Google’s logs of your ip address which roughly tracks your location. App permissions will not solve this. We need strong privacy regulations with teeth.

This seems to me to be a weak substitute for good privacy regulation.

Except for tha time with Windows 8 where they tried to get rid of them.

I just want my privacy back.

It’s a discipline.

I run Emby and MythTV on a Beelink Mini PC. It is a little pricey compared to some of the options you mentioned but not by too much. It works really well and is very quiet:

I remember when SFC was first introduced, I excitedly wrote a script to invoke it remotely so I could use it on a user’s pc when they called to fix their problem. To this day I have never run that script. This was in 1998.

“> driving out rivals, diminishing competition, inflating advertising costs, reducing revenues for news publishers and content creators, snuffing out innovation, and harming the exchange of information and ideas in the public sphere.”

I feel like it is going to be hard to prove that Google’s anti-competitive actions have inflated advertising costs. Also, did news publishers lose revenue because of Google or was it Craigslist and jobs sites that killed their classified business?

Google is definitely a monopoly and has acted badly, but proving the harm in this way is going to be tricky. The government should go after them for privacy, the place where they have clearly abused their relationship with the public. Google normalizing spying on users has created the data economy that has resulted in us being spied upon us all the time and having all of our personal data being leaked over and over again.

As someone who has administered networks and written policies like this the concern here is that you will run an open network that may be used for piracy, hacking, DDOS or to send bomb threats. Tracing down this type of behavior is required by law and allowing students to run open networks makes this near impossible.

Fmovie is a new one I never heard of before. Good thing they mentioned it so I know to avoid it in the future.

What are your use cases?

Thanks that is super-helpful! There is also a Gigabyte option that is only moderately more expensive. I will check it out!

Did anyone read the phrase “fed up carpenter” and immediately think the was the second coming of Christ?

Librewolf is great. Secure and private by default. For compatibility it is nearly as good as Firefox.

A lot of good stuff here. The three things that are most notable for me are:

Notepadqq

Fsearch
