lawns in addition to other things are fine, but also all the stuff self said applies pretty hard

we're lucky in ZA that we're pretty good with getting a lot of this stuff out, which I'm often pretty happy about, but that's an incident of geography (and personal location)

I wonder how long until these clowns start posting kagi signups with referral links embedded

No, it’s supposed to be “firefox with all the weird mozilla pitch decisions removed” but it seems they still struggle to catch some

today's a fucking trip and a half

in a mall I saw some Honor laptop[0] ads with "AI" pitch sauce slathered all over it

later walking between art galleries I saw a roadsign ad for a property sales company promising "more effective strategies using AI" (more effective strategies for.. selling.. houses..? I guess..? (x up for doubt))

and now I get this shit in my mailbox from someone who absolutely purchased a dataset with this address in it:

[0] - I didn't even know they were in ZA, but nope, 2-floor hanging banners and ads allllll over elevator doors and shit

Ah, copilot is so extremely popular that MS has decided to bundle it into O365 for ~~free~~ a moderate “depends by region” price increase

I’m sure that’ll totally make people want it even more! hordes at the gate!

what do anthropic, aws, and palantir all have in common? except for being the fucking worst, of course

the dollar signs in their eyes seem to share a bit of a glow..

last I saw that wasn't really well-insulated from upstream's bullshit

one of the recent things moz pulled ended up enabled in librewolf on basically the same day/timeline
