I hate *.ai ... BUT. It generates much more than you think. Ending a discussion of advancing steampunk technology, DDG.ai compared unprompted shamanistic conjuring of objects from a smoky fire with Quantum measurement of SPIN. Which I took as a random :smoke" or orbital motion. See the Wild metaphor ? It's fucking voltage, current and power. Yet also ... something like two Oxbridge tutors arguing Wittgenstein over warm beer. And one was *.ai . Can you dig it ?

They are NOT primarily focused on Firefox and have so much play money they squander it on whatever projects amuse them as is their legal right.
Their Google contract alone brings in about half a billion dollars. They're a highly "profitable" non-profit.

LibreWolf is excellent; I switched from FF a few weeks ago . The performance is flawless. I do not miss DRM. Next in line is fellow-traveler Cannonical .... sucking cyclopians dicks over "...think of the children ...". Strangly enough the Linux ecosystem has become too difficult and fragmented for the unsupported home user to admin. Happened probably U_16..04 . True for me .... mebby not for you. My choice after 15 years is to leave systemd behind, and install Devuan. Ironically with expert help from GOOG.ai . It's proven itself to me with with ranging chats ... varying from entanglement in multi-dimensional spaces to 'where are the cage screw-holes for the SATA ssd in my G55mobo' ?

Like every solution --- go after the source. Find those able to code LLMs ... cut them down like bad weeds. Just like if your bought some bad soap ... that gave you an itch ... you go after the soap-makers who brewed up that itch. If they are Randists who claim their freedom requires them to create itching --- then put your iron boot-heel thru their teeth.

Comment surcharges (Score 1) 188
I don't understand the concept of surcharge. My view: if a company spends more money to perform its work, then it increases prices to customers. A simple financial decision has been made. There's nothing "sur"charge about it. The "charge" increases because the cost to do business increases. What is the financial "trick" that make **charge increase** a less favorable noun/verb than surcharge to specify a financial decision. If you say ... 'it's an additional charge to ...' ... then I say so is every cost of production ! Or it it just bullshite.

At high temps equilibrium concentration of oxygen in solid copper is O(10^-4) % by weight. If BOTE serves well, then "Oxygen free" would be 100x less than that.

Nice point. Historically computer media ( magazine/website/Blog/Newspapers(San Jose Mercury ! ) was frequented BECAUSE they had pages & pages of ads for novel computer products ... and job ads . Ads were frequently very technical ... infomercial was NOT a "bad word" then. I could do with THOSE kind of ads on /. as if current owners had a clue . They don't want bits & bytes & pointers ... they want <klickbait> . Is it any wonder I run for my GOOG.ai whenever my Linux systems misbehave ? Just concrete noun active verb Queens English spoken; with focus straight to the point where I stumbled ; no green-beaning whine no Trotsky-slut spew no TDS rants no Chi.com apologetics no nanny-state lectures.

Chi.com/CCP apologists have been manifest and evident on SlashDot for a long time. Pretty clear they have infested the "moderation" process big-time; you know that's not accidental. Been years -- as a computer usr/hobbyist -- since I daily referenced /. for its technical content. Bet /. could clean-out the sock-puppets, but the loss of income would get some C-Suites fired. BTW/// Does CCP really pay $0.33 for every pander-post ? Sounds like an income stream for us old retired paleo-STEMS. How do they pay? Bytecoyn trash or real bank account deposits ?
