  • What's going on at Mozilla these days?

    Jump

  • I'm willing to bet that the people who switch to Firefox for ad-blockers and ad-free YouTube aren't the kinds of people who are donating much to Mozilla. People in online forums talk a big game about wanting to pay for products and not be the product. But it seems like people don't really want to pay any meaningful amount of money for a browser.

  • To oversimplify, every human has an X chromosome and it is necessary to survive. The Y chromosome is optional and codes for some additional traits that make a person male. Chromosomes aren't foolproof and genes and in some cases entire chromosomes can essentially be turned off. However, since we have two of each chromosome this is often not a problem. So, if parts of the Y chromosome turn off, you potentially turn off the mechanisms that make a person male. In which case the person would remain the default of female.

  • It's kind of their whole thing though. It's how NASCAR got started. Without it, it would kill a large part of their tourism.

  • Tbf, there are American beaches known for being drivable. Specifically, Daytona Beach.

  • temperature

  • I like that Fahrenheit has a narrower range for degrees. 1C is 1.8 degrees F. So, F allows you to have more precision without the use of decimals. Like, 71F feels noticeably different to me than 64F, but that is only a 3.8 degree difference in C.

  • I bet the Vulcans never tried to "Save Daylight" by changing the clocks twice a year

  • Me: As long as you leave an hour later why do I give a shit.

    Probably why I'm not the boss of anything.

  • Since when are green tomatoes toxic? I eat fried green tomatoes every summer...

  • I was a bit before I realized it was a pine cone.

  • I have never understood that.

  • The shorts kind of help feel warmer if you are bundled up everywhere else. It focuses the feeling of cold on your legs where it feels less bothersome.

  • That's why I'm storing up on brown fat in my youth.

  • It's like a game of chicken where you win by being the last one wearing shorts deep into winter.

  • To add to this, vegetable is a culinary term and not a scientific term. Whereas, fruit can be both. Tomatoes are scientifically a fruit, but generally not from a culinary perspective.

  • Nikki Haley to launch $10m ad campaign in bid to overtake Ron DeSantis in GOP fight

    Jump

  • Ron is the bigger shithead. I wouldn't like it but I could probably stomach Haley being president. However, for that reason, Haley will also never win the GOP primary.

  • Winner is also 77, unhealthy, and going through a very stressful period of his life. Probably a decent chance of him dying of a heart attack or something.

  • What are you talking about? Google does not give law enforcement information without a warrant or valid subpoena.

    https://support.google.com/transparencyreport/answer/9713961?hl=en#zippy=%2Chow-does-google-handle-government-requests-for-user-information

    You clearly have no idea how any of this works and are fear mongering based on sound bites you may have heard. I work in this field and I know that Google (at least in the US) won't just hand over data without a valid warrant or subpoena. Now this can be a FISA warrant where the defendant (imo) doesn't have proper due process rights, but it is still a court order requiring them to comply.

  • I don't like the idea of my birthday being on the same day of the week every year. Based on the IFC Calendar, mine would be on a Tuesday every year and that would suck.

    Why are we focused on a room temperature superconductor instead of a less cold superconductor?
