Yeah, just create an entirely new, incompatible extension engine from scratch for this one feature specifically!

Pleasure doing business, good sir
Ah, I missed that alt text specifically is local, but the point stands, in that allowing (opt-in) access to a 3rd party service is reasonable, even if that service doesn’t have the same privacy standards as Mozilla itself
To pretty much every non-technical user, an AI sidebar that won’t work with ChatGPT (Google search’s equivalent from my example previously) may as well not be there at all
They don’t want to self host an LLM, they want the box where chat gpt goes
Well except for the fact that the salary option is:
If they would be able to get even a slightly worse salaried job instead of being an MP, then the financial motive is - in contrast to your claim - actually in favour of him losing
There’s plenty of situations where even a contextless generated alt-text is a huge improvement on no alt-text at all
Mozilla isn’t in charge of the extension API, it uses Chromium’s WebExtensions API
The alternative is only supporting self hosted LLMs, though, right?
Imagine the scenario: you’re a visually impaired, non-technical user. You want to use the alt-text generation. You’re not going to go and host your own LLM, you’re just going to give up and leave it.
In the same way, Firefox supports search engines that sell your data, because a normal, non-technical user just wants to Google stuff, not read a series of blog posts about why they should actually be using something else.
Sorry, what’s that in hand-egg-ball fields?
I think the lemmy software itself isn’t so much the problem (in that it isn’t politically moderated), but the way he moderated his own instances make a fairly compelling reason for defederation
You had me for a moment there
Efficiency, efficiency, efficiency
Edit: don’t forget the fatphobia!
Well sure, but I don’t think anyone is seriously proposing matriarchy as the reasonable alternative to patriarchy
Gender equality, however, does imply a fairer society
That’s the maximum non-custodial sentence
There are dozens of us!
But that definition from Wikipedia doesn’t contain the contested part of the definition, that it is a “transitional system”
It’s okay for people with bad takes to be here too - that’s why the fediverse is special
Make that bad boy unsigned, just to be safe!
I should go to the library more
