that would be an easier way to exit the hardware business though, which probably has thin margins, and just eat that sweet, sweet subscription money.
Xbox has got caught up in Microsoft's Make Line Go Up brain worms, rather than something they appear willing to subsidize forever. Surely only a matter of time before it's enshittified beyond the point of use (and they're about to lose their "fastest" claim).
Sony must be running out of cabbages to lol into.

I could explain away all the misguided attempts to have an income stream not dependent on Google. The team needs to be paid.
However, I am utterly astonished, given the *primary* focus of a Firefox user, that they felt the integration of AI/LLM access was necessary.
I don't want to support a Chromium alternative, I'm tired of Google bullying web dominance. So, I guess I'll be hoping the Servo team pull it off.

Removed Veronica to save some notifications, but the abuse she received from self-proclaimed white nationalists, in response to that thread, was horrendous. The screenshot has since been deleted, as she was getting abuse for sharing it. Unbelievable.
We're 2 years into the big "twitter alternative" movement and I don't think we're any closer to allowing people to be safe.

every time a big account surfaces an odious person, I go search for them to block them and find the whole instance is already nuked.

Remote desktop server! Is that RDP compatible, for connections from Windows machines?

Wow, ok, misjudged this guy. I figured he would be focused on himself and steer clear of anything which affected his fan base. More like Dwayne Johnson.
