I literally got banned from the “awfulsystems” Lemmy instance for suggesting that Firefox isn’t horrible. No exaggeration, there was nothing else to my comment than a polite suggestion that Firefox is pretty good actually.
If that ban isn’t driven by hate, I don’t want to see how real hate looks like.
This shows how unhinged the whole recent hate on Firefox is. Turning off GenAI is literally one single setting AND Mozilla is doing things infinitely better than others (e.g. the translation feature is completely local, and having a chatbot in the sidebar is opt-in)
Not if you interpret it as “sufficient but not necessary”.
anyone I’m into is a woman, but there are also women in not into
Set theory yo
The USA continues to baffle me. You people still have paper checks? I haven’t seen one in at least 30 years in Europe (before that I was too little to care about such things, so I might never have seen one)
Sorry, I’m not a physicist, but the big bang happening everywhere at once isn’t up for debate. As far as I understand, it’s a well-settled fact. Read the article!
The big bang didn’t happen in a pattern, it happened everywhere at once: https://nasaspacenews.com/2025/10/is-the-universe-infinite-new-evidence-challenges-our-cosmic-understanding/
The universe expanding means it gets sparser. It has no edge and no center, so it’s not spherical. It’s either infinite or repeating (e.g. it might be the surface of a 4D torus, but as said: that doesn’t imply an edge). I personally believe it’s infinite and not repeating.
No, there’s no center and no edge, the big bang happened everywhere at once. The universe might be finite, but only in the sense that it’s looping back on itself, not in the sense that it can possibly be a sphere (which has both center and edge). So your mental model of an explosion in 3D space doesn’t fit: https://nasaspacenews.com/2025/10/is-the-universe-infinite-new-evidence-challenges-our-cosmic-understanding/
Metaphors like this at helpful for approaching understanding, but you can’t extrapolate from them. There was no 3D space in which the big bang occurred, “nothing” is not the same as “a patch of vacuum in spacetime”. An explosion doesn’t start as dimensionless singularity, it starts with the matter that explodes. And so on.
Earth is fine, it’s seen worse than humanity. Geology doesn’t care about what biology does.
There’s also no reason to believe that the big bang happened at one “point”. I believe that the universe (and therefore the big bang) are infinite.
Everything is relative, so something infinite can still expand: since there’s no absolute speed, galaxies can move away from each other everywhere, at all times.
Now you’re just making things up.
A homeless person freezing to death on the winter streets in the US is as poor as a homeless person starving in Lebanon. Who cares if one of them has a banged-up smartphone. They’re both dying.
I’m not living there, don’t assume things. And why do you think obesity means wealth? The trash food that makes their people fat and unhealthy is very much an expression of poverty. The wealthy there east healthy food.
What good does a handful of billionaires’ wealth do the poor in the US?
Mu. Your question reveals that you didn’t read the article. Try doing that, then you know which failed assumption led to your question making no sense.
I’d love that. On Reddit, I used to see dozens of upvoted comments by people who only read and believed the headline, all appearing before the first comment written by someone who had read the actual article.
I chose the Lemmy devs’ instance thinking it would get bug fixes fastest. Had I known that this leads to constant discrimination, I wouldn’t have, jeez.
Hahaha yeah! And not to forget lemmygrad.
Also I dared suggest that Mozilla isn’t the devil and Firefox is still kinda the only browser preventing a full chromium monopoly on awfulsystems. Banned.
I really like rolling release. So much better to deal with updates one-by-one than in a giant batch every half year or so.
EVERYTHING is GONE!
