Isn’t profile management introduced like right now in the same release?

I have read this post’s description and didn’t even open a link, since it didn’t sound interesting. But two big features are introduced in this release: **tab groups and profile management **

Why do everyone emphasize the fact that it is Rust based? What difference does it make? Personally, I don’t care whether it’s written in Rust, Cobol or Brainfuck. Badly written software would be buggy no matter the language.

A few things to point out:

• Microsoft created this extension and pays money to develop it
• Despite that, they give it to programmers for free. It is still free of charge.
• They explicitly said that using it outside of their products is forbidden (according to article: at least 5 years ago), they just didn’t enforce it
• Someone (here: Cursor developers), despite that, used it in their products and started to make money from it

What exactly are you mad at? When will programming community finally understand that Microsoft is not a non-profit company and its primary purpose is to make money?

To be successful, Firefox should not only try to keep up with the competition, but also offer some unique features that would attract new users.

I agree that LLMs are overhyped, but in my opinion they are quite good at summarising text. We all hate clickbait titles, and this feature has the potential to actually combat them. And what’s unique about Firefox’s approach is that it’s truly private. No other browser offers this.

hey @ExtremeDullard@lemmy.sdf.org, here’s a hint: you don’t have to use it ;)

Pretty good article, went into some technical stuff, which surprised me as in Linux world I’m used to articles discussing changes in wallpapers between different distro releases :D

What is this

Wow, have they just realised that not every single thing computers do is actually useful to anyone? I think screens that show things when nobody’s looking cost a lot more on a global scale.

Naah, boring

So… the US government doesn’t have to fund it anymore? So that is an advantage for them in this situation, what is the disadvantage? Or was that their goal all along?

It reportedly works entirely on your machine (as it meant to be privacy preserving by default). So it will probably see only the data you can see.

Maybe because it is, an article says later “Saltiness aside” 😏

Is talking on Lemmy ok?

Can anyone ELI5 why it’s bad? Apart from contributior being Microsoft

But it’s still possible, right? It’s just a matter of doing something in one second versus several?

Can someone explain to me, a person that did not have any Apple device ever, what do they mean by:

easier device set-up (e.g. pairing).

So you could not pair non-apple device with your Apple device? And seriously no smartwatch could work with iPhone other than Apple Watch?

If it wasn’t for Spotify, I wouldn’t know most of the artists I listen to now. They might receive little money from me listening to them, but it’s still more than they would receive if I didn’t knew about their existence.
