WTF #firefox and #mozilla?
You demand donations? After all this you have done to enshitify yourself?

And that is not even the worst part about this page you forced us to look. You sell ads on the same page?!! You even have biggest font on that Mozilla Ads text.

Dear Mozilla. Seek help! Now! Or euthanasia. Idk

Screenshot from landing page that opened when Firefox was launched.

With text: 

You power Firefox. Now donate to make good tech the default.

Mozilla Foundation — the non-profit behind Firefox — is building a future where technology serves people, not power.

Your donation to Mozilla Foundation keeps the internet open, private, and built for people. Donate today to make good on the promise of the internet.

There is also a big banner in footer that says Mozilla Ads written in big font with smaller text "Add thrust to your ad buy." and Learn more call to action button.

Trains cancelled over fake bridge collapse image
bbc.com/news/articles/cwygqqll
Trains were halted after a suspected AI-generated picture that seemed to show major damage to a bridge appeared on social media following an earthquake.

The tremor, which struck on Wednesday night, was felt across Lancashire and the southern Lake District.
Another specimen of
slope.

It used to be three raccoons in a trench coat, but now it’s two guys in a podcast.

The enshitification of Facebook, summed up in one image. I only open it on a PC so I can use extensions to block unwanted content. Opening the news feed, Social Fixer had to hide 26! suggested posts from pages I don't follow before the first post of a page (not even a friend's post) I do follow appeared. Moreover, that's not showing all the ads that'll have been auto-blocked via uBlock Origin! It's just a constant slurry of unsolicited crap! :facebook: #enshitification #Facebook #Meta

A screenshot of the Facebook news feed showing 26 rows of hidden posts from pages I don't follow, each tagged “Suggested”. The first shown post is from West England Bylines.

Diese Woche hat jemand gefragt, wie Menschen, die wissenschaftlich denken, derzeit die Tage überstehen. Da habe ich noch gefrotzelt. Heute hatte ich einen Nervenzusammenbruch, als ich las, dass bereits "soziale Roboter" in der Pflege eingesetzt werden.

Mich wundert das nicht, aber diese Blindheit gegenüber Ursache und Wirkung ... Wir verwirken unser Leben durch technische Errungenschaften, die uns auffressen. Auf allen Ebenen.

An unfortunate sign of the times, RAM that I got for $50 and was holding onto because I got a 64 gig kit instead earlier in the year, is now selling for $325 new ....this is absolutely insane. I feel bad for anyone buying or building a PC now.

If anyone's wondering that price tracker is Keepa.

Price history of g-skill ram kit going from very cheap around $100 on Amazon to $325 this week

@kboyd

OK this is interesting. Those of us in tech have been aware of this for a while, but now the trades and blue collar folks are waking up to the horrors of #enshitification and the extraction economy.

I hope this gets amped up more and more. If the trucker's convoy want something to be upset about this is it, not rainbow flags. I hope all the right wing conspiracy nuts are listening because this one is actually real!

Anyone started a fork yet?

Anyone got a workflow for decrypting #Kobo #ebooks without Calibre? #ebook #ereader

Some months ago I decided that migrating my systems from Microsoft to a Linux OS is the next step in my quest to loosen techno-feudalism's grip on my life. Thought I'd start small with my ancient Netbook so as not to be without (read: screw up) my desktop for too long...

So, after a morning down the Linux rabbit hole, I'm facing an install (correct term?) of a tiny dispo (learning new words) that'll run on my 32-bit, 1.00 GB system. I figure, if I can make that work, migrating my newer desktop system will be a cinch.

@miya Simplex has a lot of the same advantages of signal and is better in some ways

both are floss messengers and have quantum resistant end to end encryption

simplex has multi profile functionality and anonymous invite links so each dm can be like a burner phone with no single user id to connect you to all your dms

simplex is decentralised, while unofficial signal servers cant federate with the official servers simplex is built as a decentralised network of relays that can pass messages to each other for enhanced privacy and ip obfuscation kind of like tor, and its apparently very easy to run a simplex relay bc you dont need a huge media server files and messages are ephemeral its up to end users to archive or back up

Signal was attempted backdoored by the uk govt and was only saved by signal threatening to walk, if simplex is ever compromised or enshittified forks can be made without losing your contacts we aren't totally reliant on the official simplex relays unlike with signal

#enshitification in real life & on YouTube. I'm watching Catherine Coleman Flowers live on the @nicolesandler show talking about how the poorest rural communities in the US don't have safe sanitation & water. (She's been called the "Erin Brockovich of Sewage" ) I was late & wanted to speed up the playback but YouTube has made that a "Premium" (paid) feature.

One of the most annoying downsides of the #enshitification of #youtube:

I have to change the way I include #rickrolls in the solution section of my tutorial material.
