source Seems like rather similar options to me?
But I have to admit to never having used either anyway.

what’s the difference between box86 and FEX-Emu?

damn, right.

i totally forgot about those, and assumend the mix-up of room temperature and “high-temperature”, because “high” is very relative and confused me as well.

yeah, it doesn’t destroy anything on the worldwide scale.
but it weakens.

erosion is a rather perfect term for it

interesting, as her service is illegal.

but well deserved, as it clearly shouldn’t be.

room temperature superconductors don’t exist. (well… when/if this paper turns out to be bullshit)

High Temperature Superconductors do, and refer to the fact that they can be cooled with liquid nitrogen, and do not require liquid helium.

Firefox will most likely support this, if it doesn’t want to get cut off from most of the web.

well, if more people used Firefox websites couldn’t just throw them under the bus, which is why I said it’s so important.
We’ll have to see, but I’d hope Firefox puts up at least some resistance.

depends how the loans worked.
I was assuming his majority shares of X (ex Twitter) collateral.
And that that he could just go “yeah, go on, collect on your collateral, I don’t mind”, because it’s not worth anything anymore.

But admittedly I have no Idea how the contracts were drawn up, if this is possible and if his other money would be available to collect on.

Several players have said they’ll exit the UK rather than exit encryption.

rightly so.

I’d assume any worldwide player couldn’t be caught in compliance with this, as long as alternatives exist that don’t.
This might have been enough to push EU people away from WhatsApp for example.

I mean, imagine if non-british companies just went “well, no encryption for you, then.”

And disabled TLS too.

Online Banking would probably just have to… stop.
And a lot of other pages wouldn’t load on most browsers requiring https

They are not donating, if I remember correctly fairly recently Microsoft outbid them and bing was default for a bit.

But maybe I’m not remembering correctly tbh.

Depends.

If he thinks Twitter is irreperably dying, this may be a way, in which he can get out of repaying the loans he used to (partially) fund the buyout of twitter.

yeah, well, even the @twitter account now has the X logo.

x.com redirects to twitter.com as well.

Wonder if Businesses will replace the twitter logo in their windows as well.

This is why we need Firefox.

And Firefox needs to be a market that can’t be ignored.

how about gitlab as a self-hosted alternative?

To dicover streams from owncast Owncast Directory

I wonder how much capability for a community-server there is though.
like a few content creators coming together to pay for it, because right now it seems like it’s exclusively self hosted from the streamer

the ton of games doesn’t run natively, they run well, but through a translation layer (wine/proton)

As I posted elsewhere in the thread:

If I don’t misunderstand things, and we are talking streaming everything to a thin client, then this:
I think It’s terrible for consumers, especially long term, but there are short-term shinies which you wouldn’t have to deal with yourself (which you totally could of course)
