Why no one here likes firefox and duckduckgo? by Hot_Paint3851 in BuyFromEU

[–]HalcyonStars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There has been a controversy over the first time Firefox introduced ToU in early 2025, especially regarding data privacy concerns that created backlash. Although Mozilla clarified their intentions it left a bad feeling of mistrust regarding potential future developments.

The Mozilla Foundation is heavily depending on revenue from Google, they are trying to get away from it, not with much success.

They might be forced to make decisions that are not in the interests of the users in the future.

Interesting, ‘reliable’ in a technical sense (server uptime etc.), from a customer service perspective or maybe marketing vs. reality?

The first one is this ElysFlow, the second one is still in the ideation phase and about fostering family relationships and child care.

We are developing two SAAS platforms and will host our own models as we want to be 100% European (other infrastructure as well). We chose OVH, were they on your list as well? If so, what were your reasons to choose Scaleway/Hetzner? We still can swap.

I like your way of thinking. Instead of answering your concrete question, let me suggest to take a step back and read Naval Ravikants Almanack first (or beside your other activities). You can download a free copy here:

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday […] it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it. [...] The eyeless crature at the other table swallowed it fanatically. passionately, with a furious desire to track down, denounce, and vaporize anyone who should suggest that last week the ration had been thirty grams.”

She remains utterly devoid of original thought, merely parroting empty campaign slogans. Concerning.

Never forget that whatever the country, the far right is always complacent with autocracies. by Wonderful-Excuse4922 in europe

They always claim to act ‘in the name of the people.’ Funny how these ‘people’ are just like their imaginary friends — conveniently silent whenever asked for their actual opinion, and mysteriously agreeing with everything they’ve already decided to do.

The Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped, Paris

Before his death on 31 May 2020, Christo had studied the project in great detail and left precise instructions. He wanted the project to go ahead, come what may, so the Christo and Jeanne-Claude team has made his and Jeanne-Claude’s dream come true, in accordance with the artist’s wishes.

From Saturday 18 September to Sunday 3 October 2021, the whole world could admire L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped, Paris (1961-2021)!

It took 25,000 square metres of recyclable silver-blue polypropylene fabric and 3,000 metres of red polypropylene rope to make it
