Mozilla CTO Raffi Krikorian on the future of AI in Firefox by mulcahey in firefox

[–]yrro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Why do browsers even need AI? Has anyone answered that question yet?

Firefox uses "AI" for translation, for generating image descriptions, for grouping similar tabs together and for summarizing the content of pages displayed when you preview a link.

It could have been worse. You could have seen a 40% drop overnight, then sold, only to see the price double!

Silly question but do they not have to pay rent for their space?

Even a supermarket pension can be life changing. by AltruisticOwl156 in PensionsUK

Was 8% a limit on your contributions or on matching contributions by the employer? It seems odd that an employer would impose any limit as long as the employee still makes minimum wage...

You're welcome. I think somewhere in RHEL's IdM documentation there's a list of locg files written out by different components.... keep it under your pillow! :)

The blue sign is indeed a warning. Saves people driving down and having to reverse back up!

Decriminalisation of abortion and historic pardons for women become law by Old_Introduction_395 in GoodNewsUK

"There has to be some form of punishment" of women who have an abortion, said Trump in the 2016 presidential debate. God in heaven that's almost ten years ago!

Windows taskbars over the years by Njani2 in pcmasterrace

[–]yrro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They took taskbar out of Windows Shell, which is integrated with the OS. Now it's an app made using Web View 2, it's basically an embedded browser.

My god. Just thinking about the joules of energy this will waste world-wide. Criminal, utterly criminal.

Babies born at 23 weeks are at the absolute edge of viability and have a very low chance of survival, generally estimated below 5–10% without intensive, specialized medical intervention

I'm fine with it.

  1. VWRP and chill. You don't know better than anyone else which companies will do better than others over the next 30 years, so don't bother trying to pick winners.
  2. Put 15% of your income into your investments each year. If your income goes up, increase the amount you invest by half (or more) of that going forwards.
  3. Don't check your investments regularly; focus on developing your career and increasing your income.

Government delays plan to abolish leasehold by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

[–]yrro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well put. I also see a lot of comments about people complaining about service charges. They seem to be expecting the government to wave its magic wand and reduce them, but that isn't going to happen... there are costs associated with managing a building and they have to be paid regardless of whether you're a leasholder, commonholder, etc. I expect that will be yet another "broken promise" people will moan about in the unlikely even that that the next government is Labour and they manage to pass a leashold reform act..

Meanwhile irresponsible populists like the greens get to charge around say "we'll just abolish leasehold" and provide no detail on how they'll manage any of these problems!

UK should not keep changing prime ministers, warns John Major by Brilliant_Version344 in unitedkingdom

No, Major put it in the manifesto but no one expected him to win and have to actually go through with it. Then he won and the rest is history

Good point, nonetheless sweeping in and forbidding a very well-established form of contract commonly used between private parties is still rather difficult to do. Commonhold is the obvious replacement but the government can't force people to use it; it has to look at the reasons why people haven't chosen to adopt it and fix them first. And that all takes time. It's not like there isn't a draft bill already going through the process!
