I'm surprised I haven't seen blender here yet, but I really think blender is one of open source's greatest achievements. It feels like a professional software and is also used in the industry.

Is there a list somewhere of commonly found American products in European supermarket so that I can definitely not do a bit of this..?

I lose track of all the daughter companies and such that one should watch out for.

Are there laws in the US about such conflicts of interest or was is basically tradition until this point not to do shit like this?

"My PC" was even replaced with "this PC" since Windows 11, which feels almost too symbolic...

I've thought about this too. There is no proof that he is one, and there is a chance that this all comes from his own stupidity, but if he were a Russian asset, he would act exactly as he is now.

I'm still hoping for a fork sometime in the future, but I guess we'll see. For now I'm back on fennec. I wish the developer all the best of course, I just wish there had been a bit more warning :/

Makes sense to me. Most people probably don't want the hassle of having to upgrade a non lts release. I'm still on 22.04 on the machine I use for work.

This is so good I'm crying. Thank you for sharing <3

Unfortunate, but understandable :(
I wish we could rely on good faith with something like this, but it seems the only way is to block as much tracking as possible by force.

I really wonder what the state of OpenAI will be in five years. They really don't have a proper business model (or at the very least a functional one), and it doesn't seem like they will have one. Will Microsoft fully buy them out? It seems like the only way to make "AI" profitable is to make it a selling point on products that would have otherwise already had large profit margins.

I will never understand why this place is idolized by so many people...

Idk what a NEA is, but I feel this. I have a big client meeting tomorrow and I haven't started the powerpoint :(
