Brave CEO rants about "lefties," "glowies," George Soros
-
fuck it, just call him "The JEW George Soros" so everyone understands where your opinions lie.
-
some idiot that poisoned the internet from the very beginning is an asshole.
This jackass wrote js in 2 weeks at netscape and now nulls aren't equal to other nulls.

It was a comment on your claim that brave is a great product.
Straight up scamming their users is in my opinion not something that is done by "great products".
Other examples is that Web browser that added their own referral code when users bought stuff on a crypto exchange. Oops, that was brave as well.
Or that one that installed a paid vpn service during an update, without user consent.
You guessed it, brave that as well.

None of that affects the average user. I'm talking about the experience as a browser. No ads, popups, cookie walls, newsletter signup, none of that. Much better than I've seen with Firefox plugins. I don't use their VPN or crypto, it doesn't affect me at all. Crypto is always shady but it's a choice to engage with that, and they do make it easy to avoid completely

Basically, KiwiFarms were formed by people who were too much for 8chan, which was formed by people too much for 4chan, which was formed by people too much for Something Awful.
Free speech absolutism was a mistake...
(If you ask: there are now people too much for KiwiFarms, usually those that also want to torture animals rather than going after animal abusers for internet cookie points)

I don't think it's complicated. People are in fairly small cliques, and social contagion is real. Sometimes it turns you into a woman, sometimes it turns you into a planet-destroying asshole.

Vivaldi's UI is so irritatingly laggy. Their feature set is great, but my 5800x3d can't make it change tabs smoothly and quickly.

Zen's been pretty nice so far.

Yeah, he was definitely talented. It's unfortunate that he was not only schizophrenic, but also had followers that made it worse.

Anyone know of any iOS browsers that have downloads similar to Brave’s playlist function?
-
Damn I just switched to this idiots browser

That's the thing. They always were shit, just with Trump's War on Woke, they now feel like the money they've always spent on good will of the public, DEI programs, keeping a muzzle on the racist/misogynistic/bigoted person running the company isn't really needed. Now all that "wasted" money can go where it belongs...into shareholder profits.

Eich should have been banned from any technical enterprise after inflicting Javascript on us all. His shitty views just reinforce that position further.

You know, currency you can actually buy things with.

He's got a "white guys are persecuted" complex because people call him out for abusing gays, trans people, women and minorities. He's comparing that to the not-very-effective anti-Irish prejudice in the 19th century. Unlike the murderous attacks on Black Americans and Chinese immigrants, it was never ensrined in law and was largely ignored: Irish people could vote, marry who they wanted to, own property, run businesses and hold political office. The main sources of anti-Irish animusat the time were the Know Nothing party and its friends in the KKK. Both hated the Irish for being Catholic.

I run a small thinclient (HP Mini G400, but those small Lenovos thinkcentres and others also work) in my home. Cost me ~100€ plus a few Euro for a RAM update and a bigger hard drive and now I'm running Proxmox with the help of the Community Scripts:

It's quite awesome, to be honest.

Oh, BTC.

We could have had Scheme in the browser instead, but the control freaks won and we got saddled with an inferior language instead, misleadingly named after Java because it was so long ago that some people still thought Java was cool.

Coke using people tend to get on my nerves
Coke use increases aggression and paranoia. My baseline behavioral profile is laid-back and slightly goofy. On coke, I'm a raging, sarcastic, borderline-violent dickhead. Luckily, I had enough self-awareness and self-discipline to walk away from it.
My own experience with K users is much less positive than yours. I won't even let them in my house, and it saddens me to see how wilted and lifeless they become after habitual use. It might possibly have some value in a controlled clinical setting, but as a recreational drug, it's shite.

They grew up getting their heads shoved into toilets, and are now eager to shove somebody else's head into the toilet. I'm in my mid-30s, and I absolutely remember the teachers turning a blind eye to a bunch of kids ganging up on me with sticks in middle school, only to get detention for hitting them back with the book of arthurian legends I was trying to read.
We basically got taught that bullying is a good thing the strong do to the weak, and it fucked up multiple generations.
