3/4 years. Experience has been good.

Duck Duck Go, Brave and Vivaldi. I’m de-firefoxing.

Clockwork Orange

With knives… thought that meant they were planning on ‘fighting’ it.

The picture missed Google’s hand of money paying Firefox

I avoid it like the plague. Only a few people know my stance and as far as I am aware of its only people that interact with me outside of the internet. I’m not looking to change my mind and others aren’t either. Changing one person to my thinking won’t change anything and me changing to someone else’s thinking won’t change anything.

Congratulations to a partnerships success coming from Google’s payment being Firefox’s main source of income…

I actually just did a fresh install and looks like I overlooked adding essential programs step in the wiki. I added iwd before but I also just added NetworkManager. Also thought it best to just put a DE on it instead only running a WM, (I’m normally a awesome wm user on Debian). Before I was going straight from grub install completion to tty. After I started NetworkManager pinging to archlinux.org worked. Maybe sometime I can try to install it again but leave out the DE and see if it was just as simple as leaving out NetworkManager. Not sure of installing a DE would have provided needed programs for my situation or not.

A web extension isn’t going to be that much of a game changer for Firefox. Usage is down, new profile rate is down, concerning financials towards Firefox and this issue has been ongoing for sometime with ublock. This isn’t meant to diss ublock though.

I don’t have much hope for Mozilla attracting more users to make userbase count impact. Hopefully overpaid execs proves my pessimism wrong about my favorite browser.

How? If you would have said Chromium based era, then sure, possible. Internet Explorer for 64 bit was officially retired June 15, 2022 and permanently disabled through an Edge update.

Good luck. If you lean one way or another you are already biased. Inescapable.

So what? Is it your responsibility to lead someone away from bias because you simply state you are on the left on the political spectrum?

Theists would have to explain why a human does better than their idea of a god.

I have yet to find a need to go outside of the Debian repos.

The most overrated band in the nu-metal era.

Locate command. I know it’s a command in thw terminal but since I had to apt install it I’m adding it here.

I absolutely love it.

Online trends I saw on the internet was the reason I hopped around multiple terminals. Use case for me it made no difference.

There’s 4 other terminals I did enjoy using but xterm became my go to after I got tired of hopping around.

Xterm for me. As others have shown there are other ones that are newer than that but Xterm has become my favorite.

Emacs

The biggest issue I have with your points are you can apply that same logic to all kinds of absurdity. Pick one or create one and it applies.

I also disagree with you that it is a healthier mindset to believe in essentially an unlimited amount of possibilities (unlimited because you can’t define an unknown in this case) but whether something is healthier or not is not a factual statement. It is just a subjective statement that is based too much on the individual and the mental status of that individual to determine if it is healthy or not. I could argue that it was unhealthy to believe in what I used to believe(specifically evangelical/Protestant Christianity) because of my underlining condition of dealing with obsessive compulsive disorder and depression, but that claim of being unhealthy doesn’t hold much weight because again, it depends on the mental state of an individual.

For myself, yes I am an atheist and yes if I come across evidence that convinces me differently then my views will change, but that doesn’t make my current stance any different or say weaker as some weak atheism(I find that term laughable), especially when I don’t have the knowledge of what that evidence would be to convince me.

Also remember, theories are believed to be true until proven wrong when it comes to science. The word theory is used differently in science then in colloquial type of discussions. So for example, just because we believe the theory of evolution is fact, that doesn’t mean we think a creation story myth is possible because we use the phrase, theory of evolution. I bring that up only because, the fact science has changed in the past doesn’t mean we can’t believe our current understanding as fact.
