Another wrong decision @mozilla.org? Sure, you must jump to an AI—bubble—trend to keep the money flowing to your for-profit body. But please remember that many of your users stay with Firefox for its non-profit mission, open-source browser, and Gecko engine rather than Chromium, & Manifest V2.

I have a manuscript that I submitted to a music journal. I haven't heard anything back, so I sent an email to the editor, & it turns out that the journal isn't being published for various reasons. Sigh. Rather than letting it sit idle on my laptop, which journal should I submit this manuscript to? 🙏🏻

Seriously, academics from the global south should be grateful to Alexandra Elbakyan for creating Sci-Hub. Thanks to her, those of us who want to read journal articles that are blocked by paywalls now have access to them. Stay healthy, Ms. Alexandra. #SciHub

Suddenly, Copilot has appeared in my Microsoft Office. Can anyone help me turn it off? I’ve searched through the settings thoroughly but haven’t found it. I could switch to LibreOffice, but for academic purposes, I prefer using Office. I have a license from my university, and it’s more convenient.
