At what point does piracy become a cultural obligation? It's certainly more socially responsible than the so-called owners these days.

just about any game from the 80's 8bit era was sold by the tape insert's artwork... but that artwork was so fine I do miss it today.

I hope so. I hope there could be a future where Mozilla is purged of these people and returned to being just a browser. Not everything has to be a "platform" with a business model for MBA's to feast on.

I honestly never expected the final death blow for Firefox to come from Mozilla.

"Torvalds groaned and replied, "I never had a vision. I don't want one. I see myself as a plodding engineer." On that note, the interview ended to the crowd's applause."

If only they applied the same rigor to big tech scraping the same content into large language models. I guess the bypass paywall team wasn't big enough to afford the legion of lawyers that Sam Altman and co can summon on demand. We can just wait for chatgpt to serve those articles direct to our search results and nobody will even visit their website, because we live in a world where stealing an article to read is illegal, while stealing all of them for profit is not.
