There's already a location service for the browser you can turn on or off, this doesn't add any tracking that wasn't already there.
I swear every time Mozilla does anything people find some way to be negative about it.

Like the last 10 years? All that these "don't vote for either party" movements have done is get republicans in charge who just accelerate damage. We don't like All Gore or Hilary so we got the infinitely worse option. And the only way it affects the democratic party is by moving them further right, because they see those candidates winning and want to pander to their audience.
And that second thing does nothing except get me arrested.
Actually good advice, I'll use this the next time a kid steals my radioactive isotopes.
I'm not voting for a libertarian, the last thing we need right now is deregulation. I'm voting for Biden because unless most of the country knows about a candidate, they're not winning. I'd rather prevent a the second holocaust that trump openly wants to cause than use my vote on some ideallic candidate that I know won't win. And it sucks, and I hate that I have to do that, but it's the way things are right now. And short of a revolution or a change to ranked choice voting (which some states have done), I don't see a better option. And just because I'm voting for him doesn't mean I "promote" him or agree with everything he does.
How many times has a libertarian won a federal election
Oof that party split.
Bro wtf, I think it's dumb not to vote too but you're gonna call for eugenics? Even in the most generous interpretation where that's a joke, you've gotta realize how bad a look that is.
Of all the things to take from windows, this is one of the better ones. Especially if it gets more info in the future. For less tech-literate users, a screen like this is a lot better than a hard to read dump to a terminal.
MIT license is useful for a lot of stuff that is traditionally monetized. Game development tools, for example. I don't think a game engine could become very popular if you had to release your game's source code for free.
Oh neat, thanks for the explanation! That makes sense as most of my crt exposure for the past 10 years has been classroom TVs and museum exhibits.
It's insane what these people do. They're rewriting code from the 60s to use even less memory, have to test it in production without physical access, and it takes two days to see if anything changes. It's an insane piece of engineering and it's incredible that it's still sending useful data.
I mean I'm all for calling out companies pulling shady stuff, but it just loses it's value when you do it for every little thing no matter how innocuous it is.
It's not limited to Lemmy either, everyone compailed about their new simplified logo, thinking that the general Firefox brand logo would become the Firefox browser logo.
