Mozilla has a new CEO who: - Has been at Mozilla for less than a year - Has no prior open source experience (but well in "fintech" and "real estate") - Has a MBA (aka "brainworm diploma") - Is all-in on AI That’s exactly the kind of bingo profile the whole community has been waiting for.
This post will not appear in the timeline of most Pixelfed users. Because considered at "not pretty enough" for them (despite the great illustration by @npub16ysp...sjae ) It worth asking the question: Is Pixelfed sawing off the branch that the Fediverse is sitting on?

Unix - BSD developers : this code should run and be maintained as long as computers exist. Linux - GNU dev : this code should run and be maintained as long as someone is willing to do the work Consultant: this code should run until the end of my contract. Enterprise grade B2B software : this code should run till the end of the demonstration to that big customer. Vibe coding : You are perfectly right. The code doesn’t run. Try this one. You are right, it deleted your hard disk, I’m sorry.
In computer security, it is said that the fact you don’t see any vulnerability in the code you write is no proof that your code is secure. It is proof that you are blind to all the mistakes you did in your shitty code. People *will* exploit your vulnerabilities. I’m a writer. When you use a LLM to generate text, the fact that you find the output good doesn’t mean that it is good. It only means that you are blind to the shit you’ve generated. People *will notice* how stupid your writing is.
- Copilot was forced to nearly every MS user without their consent - Gemini starts each time an Android user touch his smartphone main button - Whatsapp users suddenly interact with an AI they can’t disable - Firefox will soon have its own AI - Even myself, as a @Proton and @npub1zq54...dlp2 user, I received access to multiple chatbots I never asked for But remember: statistics show that "people are using AI tools !" If you trust those statistics, you are deep into the delusion bubble.
Moziila didn’t have the ressource to keep a "subscribe to RSS" button in Firefox but has the manpower to build a full IA inside your browser. And that’s all you need to know about the end of the web and the IA bubble.
We are reaching the point where Idiocracy will be considered as a utopia because, in the movie, government is honestly trying to solve real problems of the citizen. And health checkup is free. And, if you don’t have valid papers, you can simply ask a machine for them. (even if you were not sure) Not to mention that those idiotic people are smart enough to not consider the color of the skin of their president an important matter. And there’s no AI in every object. Definitely a utopia…
Est-ce qu’il y a sur le Fediverse des auteurices de BDs qui seraient d’accord de partager leurs expériences éditoriales ? J’aimerais savoir les éditeurs à éviter, ceux qui sont cools, etc. J’ai déjà reçu de bons retours de Bamboo mais des avertissements sur certains autres. Le repouet vous fera trouver la BD qui manque à votre collection lors de la prochaine vente d’occasion de votre quartier ! PS: oui, on a fini un dossier éditorial avec un dessinateur, on cherche la perle rare ! #BD
I just came accross a web article that starts with: "Scroll through the whole page to download all images before printing." Scrolling through the web page is, obviously, painful. I can’t help but think that we even managed to make it nearly impossible to do something as simple as printing a web page.
I’ve learned that, when using #bluesky , you are tracked by Statsig analytics. And Statsig has been bought by OpenAI gemini://tilde.club/~winter/gemlog/2025/9-04.gmi It is not an accident. Sam Altman is trying to do wïth BS what Musk did, with great success deispite the laugh, with Twitter : gain political influence. And it was expected since the start.
