Google had many little features over the years that just quietly disappeared.

Hopefully they downsize, become more lean and focused, and stop paying the CEO millions. I think Mozilla will be fine becse there's plenty of fat to cut. They will surely need to lay off lots of people though. Hopefully their focus of advertising helps them avoid that.

They have lawyers on staff earning a salary, so stalling literally costs them no extra money.

Even so, you can't win a legal battle against Nintendo that easily even with precedent. It will cost you money which you might not have...

"Material You" is the new design system on android where the theme adapts to you background. They are applying this new design system to the Android settings page.

Gorhill is free to do whatever he wants, of course, I thank him for all the good work. But his reaction is honestly childish and dangerous for the community. Once again his decision to pull the plug opens the door to abusers. Now when you go to the addons page and search for uBlock, you may find illegitimate extensions pretending to be uBlock which are trying to collect your data or worse. Less tech say people don't know any better.

We have collectively agreed that Mozilla is a) not reviewing extentions enough, and b) reviewing too much.

You can politely ask them about it. Maybe there's a good reason they threw it out. Maybe it's infested, or broken.

The people who say you become more conservative usually mean that you will become more well off. And indeed when they earn their financial freedom, they want to protect the status quo. So they start seeing others as threats: be it young people wanting more rights, employees wanting fair salaries, immigrants coming for your hard earned money, everyone is a threat. This is the how the mind of an unempathic person works.

I am more conservative in the sense that I see things with more nuance. I understand societies are very complex systems in a fragile equilibrium and that my naive solutions to the world's problems are not feasible.

And yet, each day I'm more convinced we need to eat the rich.

Yup. My understanding is that the roads have a much higher effect on driving. Design roads for slow traffic and you will get slow traffic.
