Step 1. Built Internet to get away from TV
Step 2. Corporate Greed TV moves over and ruins Internet.
Step 3. Build New Internet to escape Old Internet Ruined by TV bloodsuckers.
Step 4. Go back to step 2 and replace tech names with next itteration.
I've looked, are there any clear winners I might have missed?
12.1" Damn. I would have gotten excited if it was a 6-8" device
Yeah I would definitely skip out on Mastodon and Lemmy directly. They're fine as a temporary visit but long term nah.
Dickhead meet Dickbutt, sounds like reddit poetry to me
It was a PITA on Arch because the Debian roots didn't play well.
I canned all usage many years ago.
Earthquakes and fallout are no biggie, just get yourself a standard elementary school desk and you good.
Imagine them disconnecting someone's land-line phone if they detected heresy against Zeus & Mount Olympus.
They should argue that they are not qualified to be a police force, nor a courthouse. They are simply a private business & a utility.
The Web Browser is the new TeleVision.
There is too much financial power to corrupt for us to win this fight.
The way out is to ditch HTTPS, HTML & CSS and create a new spec that is purposely limited in its scope suchas Gopher or Gemini (although I might argue Gemini is slightly too narrow as I think it would need Images, Audio & Video and maybe Input Forms depending on scope)
HTTP & HTML must die. It had a good run, it's time for a new Hyper v2 world outside the mainstream downtown doofus hangouts of social media & Advertising impersonating Internet Things like search, social & email.
We need a new web browser without all the legacy garbage & complexities. Without the DRM corruption shoehorned by Amazon, Disney, Netflix & Google.
And it needs to be limited by design to just what is needed so financial interests can't corrupt & screw it up.
This is called Controlled Opposition.
The Oil Companies do the same thing -- fund the leaders of anti-oil activists in countries where they are not #1 and use them as a proxy to target and harm their competitors.
Profit. Rinse & repeat.
Mafia tactics. The oil companies let government money and investors innovate in the solar industry and pay all the upfront costs. Then did a controlled collapsed and bought the companies IP up in bankruptcy for pennies to the dollar. And now that the oil companies own the Patents & IP it's totally okay for you to morally buy their products.
The bottom line is that The House Always Wins and what matters is who is allowed to collect the money for the grift. Territory of who is allowed to buy & sell on what streets.
We would be better off if Firefox didn't exist and the EU broke up Google for Anti-trust. At least then Manifest v3.0 DRM might not have come to be.
