"privacy-centric advertising"?
-
njsg
well, one, that of course immediately reminds me of Google
-
njsg
two, I have to read it, but one thing that'd make me wary of an advertising solution if I were using Firefox is if it were owned by the same entity which provides firefox
-
njsg
which doesn't mean Mozilla can't do good here, but rather that it probably will have to make sure there's enough transparency in that?
-
njsg
maybe this is an attempt to offset their recent incident with the censorship extensions
-
CaptainTobin
because Mozilla is fast approching beyond redeemption
-
CaptainTobin
I have given up on them
-
CaptainTobin
not the tech i still intend my pwarunner but.. mozilla the people.. how can you successfully interact when literally everything is off-topic everywhere
-
CaptainTobin
.. or more percisely how am I to when everything I say is considered always off-topic

THERE

CaptainTobin
that is how to make a grub you can control

CaptainTobin
therube: this is why Mozilla will never be anything.. all they wanna be is Google
-
CaptainTobin
and ever since they started they have failed flat on their stunning and brave asses
-
CaptainTobin
I had hoped Mozilla would be accepting of not-google but after months of trying not-google is as off-topic as not-firefox.

well now I have icon and fonts and the absolute basic code in the neptune repo now.. and it is responding correctly .. now to start modifing it for this purpose.. the purpose MOST of this code was written for in the first place. No opposition shall prevent me from achiving this goal.

ContributorTobin
components site (obvious), download (also obvious), panel (again obvious), what isn't is olympia as the name of the component that serves requests from the Add-ons Manager except AUS.. and smartupdate instead of AUS because historical names.
-
ContributorTobin
the add-ons manager api this would address was the api and constants established in the new add-ons manager with the zamboni add-ons site software and further refined in olympia

ContributorTobin
which is what Thunderbird runs .. while Mozilla has a stripped down version they are continuing.
-
ContributorTobin
so things are progressing .. have to setup the dns for addons.thereisonlyxul.org (which is gonna be the developer/testing/staging domain) of course when SeaMonkey runs it it will be at your address on your server .. I own the domain may as well use it constructively for something if not for what I intended it for.

There ids no privacy with targeted ads. Maybe some money can be made analyzing how many distict views but that is it. And even for the distinct we are at privacy again.
-
CaptainTobin
frg_Away: I dislike ads
-
frg_Away
so do I. But if static and unintrusive I can live with them. Does not happen so blocking them.
-
CaptainTobin
I was fine with the odd banner add or skyscraper or even the odd block.. but no we are WELL beyond that.. half the content I search for is either SEO clickbait either old school or AI generated or some adscape of ads .. or both
-
CaptainTobin
I literally go to less places on the web today than I did 10 years ago
-
frg_Away
yeah me too. Only a few sites. Aslo not much interested in Windows 11 only hardware which limits it further. Might be the future but not mine.
-
tomman
can't wait for Mozilla's IPO
-
CaptainTobin
That's enough work for the moment anyway.
-
CaptainTobin
hi frg_Away what's new besides mozilla selling out what remains of its users to their ad company?
-
CaptainTobin
tomman: what was mozilla's last earnings?
-
CaptainTobin
like 400 thousand and only a fraction goes to development?
-
CaptainTobin
how do you make more money than a decade ago when your userbase is a tenth of what it was a decade ago
-
CaptainTobin
explain that someone
-
tomman
well, you buy into whatever is the latest fad, of course
-
frg_Away
don't forget that we deal with 2 different mozilla entities. The last tax statements were interesting.... Anyway doesn't help us one bit. Only people doing work and the ones who donate are my tier 1 :)
-
CaptainTobin
cool can I have voice now in here lol
-
CaptainTobin
for what I dunno I can't remember the last time someone +m'd this channel
-
CaptainTobin
weeeee
-
frg_Away
so? Not sure if it sticks. Migfht not have the right rights
-
CaptainTobin
nop
-
CaptainTobin
have to use /cs flags #seamonkey MattATobin +vV
-
CaptainTobin
i suspect
-
CaptainTobin
.. more nsPrefixes damn it!
-
frg_Away
next try

CaptainTobin

-
CaptainTobin
heh
-
CaptainTobin
damn it frg_Away now I have a taste for it again..
-
CaptainTobin
:P
-
njsg
+vV or just +V?
-
frg_Away
did +vV
-
CaptainTobin
well libera uses atheme the same services package I use on my own server.. tho I use inspircd as the daemon
-
njsg
auto voice seems to be +V, +v is ability to set/unset mode +v via chanserv, at least according to the help
-
CaptainTobin
but services can be enforced to always match flags
-
njsg
but it's possible I'm ignoring something that says +V by itself doesn't work, I think there'll be a few details like that I'd need to relearn to refresh my knowledge of the services commands and flags
-
CaptainTobin
err modes
-
CaptainTobin
njsg: yeah it doesn't .. last I checked
-
njsg
unrelated detail for curiosity: I take it modeless channels aren't supported on libera?
-
njsg
nah, the server forces a prefix of "#" in the channel name, it seems
-
CaptainTobin
no it has op voice and .. user
-
CaptainTobin
oh
-
CaptainTobin
njsg: so do you know any php?
-
njsg
none
-
CaptainTobin
why does no one ever know php lol
-
njsg
no modeless channels (+), no server-local channels (&) and no safe channels (!)
-
CaptainTobin
njsg: god where is that spec from?
-
njsg
IRC channel management, I think... if some weren't already in the initial IRC spec
-
njsg
-
CaptainTobin
well I can't argue with an rfc from 2000... there were standards back then
-
njsg
remind me, what was AVIF?

» njsg also wonders if whoever uses such image formats ever heard of <OBJECT>
