Bad enough having to reconfigure for a new OS, gotta hunt for a new browser too. Still... gotta take a moment to laugh. #Firefox #AI

So MUCH this. This is my cousin's setup. Not even joking.

Ergh... Just when I get this thing tweaked the way I want it. So many of the other browsers suck so HARD. I don't know what's worse - forcing myself to get back into coding so I can write my own OS, or forcing myself to get back into coding so I can write my own browser... #Firefox
Mozilla has a new CEO and he just announced that Firefox will evolve into a modern AI browser. This is a good example of how management doesn’t understand its own user base and why they go out of their way to install Firefox on Windows, Android, iOS and other devices blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/l...

I just can't with this friggin' year. This man did as much to inspire my imagination with sci-fi adventures as anyone else in the industry - moreso than some. By all accounts a good man. He will be missed. #GiGerard #BuckRogers

People stuck on #Windows don't really have #Vi or anything like it. #Notepad is as good as it gets. Leave the poor sods alone until they make the switch to #Linux.

This is the same chucklefuck who said we wouldn't ever need more than 640K of RAM, so as someone who has been career IT for as long as the general public has been listening to this man speak, I'll be taking what he says with that very specific grain of salt. #BillGates #AI #2DayWorkWeek

More like, "...is hiding in traffic you WON'T block." Grateful I don't use #GoogleDrive. I don't use any form of cloud storage. But then, I'm one of the few people who seems to understand that "the cloud" is just someone else's computer - and all that entails.

I dunno... Grab my enhanced little sister and get on board? (They're the only two other than Shepard who are missing from this shot). #Firfly

Scary that this could actually work. 🫤

Wow.

"As of today, Studio GAINAX (Gurren Lagann, Neon Genesis Evangelion) has officially ceased to exist, marking the end of 42 years of influential anime history as its bankruptcy process comes to a close."

All rights to Gainax’s past works have now been transferred to their rightful creators."

Elegant proof that there are people who pay way more attention to Sydney Sweeney's chest than I do (and while I like Ms. Sweeney's chest, I must admit that I never would have picked up on that...)

Technically this is true of every episode so far - and at this moment there have only been five of them... #CriticalRole #TheMightyNein
The Mighty Nein Just Had Its Best Episode Yet - But There's A Problem
1 omission stopped episode 5 from being flawless.

Indeed. Windows didn't see it a lot of the time either - but DOS rode it like a boss.
