Comment Re:Why Is Brave Not More Popular (Score 1) 240

Brave killed FF for me and everyone I know. I suspect it's because of the scammy-crypto elements. I was nervous that it was a "cheap" Chrome clone...since the seamless Chrome looks is it's supposed to look like. I tried FF again last year and uninstalled again. I have to use Chrome for testing and specific sites that are too bound up in elements detected to be adtech. It's too much trouble to maintain disparate browser envs. - posted from Brave

Comment Re:Biden's Cyber Policies? (Score 2) 109

> You got anything besides mindless propaganda?

I don't believe it's propaganda, but it's not surprising that you leap to the least gracious interpretation.

> Biden had no policies. Biden was a zombie. His handlers and the autopen ran the Whitehouse.

A worldview that I can understand. Biden was barely functioning, which is a form of being compromised since he lost large amounts of time. Trump is eerily similar, where I am sure he is running things under various blackmailed conditions *at best* paired with a lesser mental dysfunction. This is a different type of kompromat, but his policies are not fully his, all the same. One deception does not excuse another and focusing on this nonsense is a distraction born of tribalism.

Biden's policies (regardless of origin) were certainly better formulated than anything TACO has come up with or the absence of them. THAT is what's important. It's a net loss.

> Defending not calling idiots the idiots they are is defending idiocy.

Not acting or admonishing unwarranted action, is not defending some imagined opposing ideal.

This is why you get modded down. Your ill-considered zealotry is indistinguishable from unbounded provocative drivel.

You are a classic troll, even when you refuse to recognize your own behavior. These tiny miseries are your own doing.

Comment Re:employees have a choice whether to work at JPMo (Score 3, Interesting) 160

I've worked at JPMC as a business associate, then as a software developer.
I asked other developers why they continued to work there when they could jump to most other companies to:

* Make more money
* Have a more flexible schedule or working arrangement
* Get better health benefits
* Get the same (or better) retirement benefits
* Still go back to JPMC if they were in dire need of a job

Many people did leave, over time. Most were complacent, liked the prestige and didn't believe it would be a simple transition.

I got a year padded on my resume then immediately jumped to make 25% more + wfh, at a job I still have well over 5 years later. I've interviewed since then to strong arm raises to another 25% on top.

I can't understand this blind fear to making your life better. I think software developers prefer low risk engagements, once they get comfortable. This may be most people with a comfortable job.

Journal Journal: It is 2025 and Slashdot doesn't support IPv6?

I've been migrating all my stuff to IPv6 because I'm retarded and felt like (another) winter project.

So I have a Debian VM that is IPv6-only for testing things out, general browsing, etc. and see that Slashdot doesn't support IPv6? One would think a tech site would have been onboard with this years ago.
