ITT hysteria over food shortages, mocking Americans wanting good wages and wanting the brown wage slaves back in the fields

Theres more in the thread

I'm not used to liberal spaces anymore its weird to see them all mocking Americans for wanting money, advocating for CA separating and valuing illegal immigrants so much.

Personally I only think there will be prices increases on specific crops for now, and if Trump doesn't pull back farmers will just purchase automated picking machines they only didn't before because mexicans were that cheap

Apparently Brave got a little cheeky in Google Playstore (I don't see this in Tim Apple's store) and Mozzila is coping hard.

Firef*x claps back after Brave browser's Play Store shenanigans

https://old.reddit.com/r/firef*x/comments/1ic4w56/i_guess_this_is_a_response_for_braves_forget_the/

Pretty lame response. "We are just minding our business and fading into obscurity". They should have use this opportunity to promote some benefit of using Firef*x over brave.

Why would they give their competitor free advertising

where is the competition? the true privacy browser is firef*x

*conditions apply. Please turn off data collection, sponsored links, non-privacy-preserving website advertising preferences, weather on New Tab page, pocket sponsored posts, default browser agent, Normandy, as well as suggestion improvements for search and web browsing. Be sure to not enable AI, and set default search engine to something that isn't Google.

**kindly please ignore that even if you turn off data collection, we will still relentlessly reach out to incoming.telemetry.mozzarella.org and location.services.mozzarella.com.

Firef*x really be doing anything but enable hdr support on YouTube.

I don't get the drooling love some people have for Brave. I personally don't think I would ever trust the browser for anything other than just another option when the ones I like don't work due to the history of crypto schemes and ad/affiliate link hijacking.

Same reason I doubt I will ever trust something made by Lenovo. They screwed up in such a bad way in the past with that whole root cert thing on their OEM images that even a decade+ on I still associate them with it and never consider their products as an option if I can find anything else to do the job.

It is essentially a cult. The crypto crowd loves to overhype stuff as they are used to do it in their pyramid schemes.

Some other people also believe brave to be some kind of anti woke browser. It's just ideology.

Firef*x is objectively the best browser in the world

in a newly-bought Macbook, install Firef*x and Chrome, then compare. despite having the M4 processor and generous amounts of unified memory, Chrome lags while Firef*x is buttery smooth

i feel sorry for people who's using Chrome, they don't even know they got used to terrible experience that they think it's normal. it's like not knowing what's above 60 Hz refresh rate or not having experienced OLED

Firef*x for everything. Safari if I want to stream 4K on Netflix. Chrome if my work will be primarily on Google Docs or Gmail. Brave if it's winter and I want to use my computer as a space heater

I use Firef*x on my computer and brave on my phone. I haven't noticed brave heating up my phone though. What's going on with Brave that everyone hates them so much?

personally, i don't like that you can't disable or hide the features that are bundled with the browser - vpn, crypto, and ai. as for the company behind Brave, i dislike their marketing because they have no business hating on other browsers if they're just a Chrome reskin themselves.

as for the heating part, well, that's my experience on Mac because it's so unoptimized. Chrome is slow as it is, but when you bundle it with other bloat, it takes a toll on your machine. there's also a long-running joke that Brave mines crypto, that's why it gets hot

Brave on my old M1 laptop literally has better battery life than Safari. You can turn all the shit off. Neighbor what world are Mozzilatards living in? Oh yeah, one where Furryfox has a 69% market share and they're not a fat slob in a boring butt IT job for some middling company.

Don't be a lameass Furryfox user, be brave! The browser that puts you first | Brave

Basically there is a group of people who are fans of a morrowind mod called tamriel rebuilt which adds the mainland of morrowind to the game and they're mad at supposed general modding corruption and at another mod called project tamriel which adds the rest of the elder scrolls mainland to morrowind. These mods share a common asset base and everyone involved is extremely neurodivergent

Now some fans are calling themselves a watchdog group and found a modder for fallout new vegas (another neurodivergent bethesda game) making a Mexico mod who is in America illegally. Obviously they did the natural thing and reported him to ICE

There's some other nonsense as well going on with the Mexico modders stealing assets and sending viruses to other modders and other stuff but idk

Now they're threatening to ICE the other morrowind modders

/u/LilliaBaltimore is still posting public bathroom selfies regularly (see [NO DRAMA] A Reddit poweruser is STILL getting to the top of /r/waltdisneyworld by posting bathroom selfies for more info.

Yesterday he posted a rainbow which makes me wonder if he's not so subtly calling out for Disney World hookups?

Anyone who dares to say "hey public bathroom selfies are weird and not on topic for /r/WaltDisneyWorld" is called a racist gatekeeper by /u/MarleyTheBeagle, the most typical Reddit imaginable.

Here comes the critique:

You posted this, so I assume you want feedback.

Your opening few paragraphs do a good job of setting the stage, but there are a few places where the prose could be cleaned up. For example, you mention Starry Hallow I think three times right off the bat.

The year is 2001, when being gay isn't really normally accepted

Try to watch out for unnecessary filler words really normally. We all use them, but they drag the narrative, especially where you can use this opportunity to attach an emotional value to the sentence.

The year is 2001, and being gay sucks.

The grown adults on Reddit, when given a chance to critique the writing of a literal child, somehow make it worse

Not that there's not anything to critique, check out the opening line:

I looked out at my window from the bus to Stars Hollow, Connecticut, and then checked my watch. The time was 1:45 p.m., but I really didn't know what time it was because my clock hadn't adjusted to the time zone yet. It's about an hour until I reach Stars Hollow.

"The time was 13:45:32 on the dot, but actually I didn't know what time it was because my (analog) watch hadn't adjusted to the time zone yet"

Context: The annual Tata Steel chess tournament is going on. It's generally the first big event of the year, and consists of two invitational tournaments (the Masters section, consisting of top players, and the Challengers section, consisting of younger up-and-coming players) as well as multiple tournaments for amateurs. This incident occurred in the challengers section, between Uzbek grandmaster Nodirbek Yakubboev and Indian grandmaster Vaishali Rameshbabu. When Yakubboev arrived at the board, his opponent extended her hand to shake (you do this before a chess game). Instead of shaking her hand, however, Yakubboev seemingly declined with a hand gesture and sat down. He also didn't offer his hand when he resigned at the end of the game (there's videos in the reddit post).

plot twist: this might have been regular autism on Yakubboev's part, and not religious autism. A couple people posted a video of him shaking hands with another female player at a different tournament (

update: He responded on twitter.

They are using BMI to come to this conclusion. The index which puts heavily muscled people in the obese category...

No. That literally does not happen. You need to be roided to the gills eating 6 full meals a day and working out nonstop to even get close to being obese via muscle.

Wow. Congress just tabled a bill that would *actually* kill open-source. This is easily the most aggressive legislative action on AI—and it was proposed by the GOP senator who slammed @finkd for Llama.
