I have to admit that Merz is a huge disappointment on this issue.
Defending an illegal war with numerous war crimes committed against Iran and in Gaza, and standing basically alone in EU/Europe, where just about every political leader have denounced the war. It is also only Germany that is allowing the use of their bases for the war!
I am pretty sure I saw somewhere that HL3 was confirmed. 😜
That is so stereotypical for anyone in his position. That’s not just him, I agree it’s a sad state of affairs, and I don’t know why this stupidity is so common. But that particular issue any other minister of justice would be more than 90% likely to have the same opinion, after they’ve been briefed by PET and FET or whatever cancer is behind it.
Seeing that this is in UK, my guess is that if they try to take it to court, the court will simply throw the case out.
Complete and utterly false, USA has that reputation because it’s true.
USA has that reputation because it happens all the time, because it’s easy to make a lawsuit, even often finding a lawyer that will take the case it without payment, but take the fee as a percentage of the potential winnings. And because USA has insane rules of extremely high compensations.
USA is not known for this because of a single anecdote, but because it’s very common, and because of the insane compensations, which is part of why it is so common to also try with what would be a frivolous suit in any other country.
Point in case would also be the Apple lawsuit against Samsung, where part of the case was as simple as a tablet being a fucking tablet! When even Star Trek of the 60’s realized that it was a convenient form factor.
Apple won on just about all points of the case, but in following years they were completely dismantled, with decisions that the case didn’t have a basis, and the patents were interpreted way to widely.
This was a HUGE case that cost enormous amounts of money for both sides, and the only true winners are the lawyers. The US judicial system in this regard is completely rotten and that is being abused for frivolous cases that would be thrown out in other countries.
Ok thanks, I assumed it was in USA, since Valve is American.
Also frivolous suits tend to happen most in USA.
It’s like suing a grocery shop for selling the xyz branded milk for using their copyrighted font.
I came here to make this exact point.
The real reason they do it of course, is that Steam is big, and they can get more money from Steam if they win.
Juries are very unpredictable in such cases. And that’s what they are playing on.
For fucks sake, Peter Hummelgaard is perfectly normal and rational, I’d even say moral person, and he is minister of justice, so of course he gets exposure.
If you for instance read his May 1. speech, yoyu can see he is very sensible.

Goddam that speech about death and destruction raining on Iran from the sky!
Those people are insane.
That’s true, clearly worse than we have here in Denmark. Of course we also have stupid people here, but they are generally not exposed broad and wide on TV.
But UK is still no match for USA from what I have seen. But clearly it’s not a problem for a politician to be stupid and also be successful. Theresa May, Boris Johnson, and Liz Truss. Are all examples of that. It’s astounding that a known liar like Boris Johnson was allowed to lead UK to vote for Brexit.
30 years ago we had a party leader Svend Auken that was caught in an outright lie. That cost him his political career.
What an absolute moron! I don’t know any other democracy that has such stupid people so regularly on TV.
For fucks sake USA is a shithole country of the worst kind.
Chrome OS is a surveillance tool for Google and authorities, and should be illegal to give to minors.
It’s actually illegal in EU, except for some reason EU is giving it a pass.
Really? What gave you that vibe?
Because why is it time to uninstall Krita?
Krita is an excellent open source project.
WTF? Why is this shit post upvoted?
WTF? This is harassment pure and simple, there is no rational reason for this.
This is most likely contrary to human rights, and I sure hope it is illegal for any EU country to do this.
its all just bloat.
Here you go:

If you want a lean no bloat Web Browser there are many that fit that label way better than Firefox.
Firefox was always a full featured browser with more features than most.
Another nice little browser would be Falkon:
https://www.falkon.org/
There are dozens of such browsers, Firefox is great because it’s complete, go get your incomplete browser with only aged features elsewhere, that doesn’t have the new features Firefox offer.
Some of us use for instance the page translation quite often. If you are not used to that, you are limiting your browsing to only sources in languages you understand. I understand 5 languages, but not for instance Chinese and French.
Most ordinary users never make a setting change,having it off by default, would make it so those users will never be aware the features are there, and having translation available on the address bar is a major feature.
Since they do no harm, I can honestly not see a reason why it should be opt in?
The people that want to turn it off are just contrarian, and possibly oppose AI as some sort of principle, disregarding that in this case it actually helps people that want to read articles in other languages, and blind people to have meaningful captions on pictures that aren’t properly captioned for the blind.
You do you, but this is not you doing you, you are being contrary at far greater cost to other people, regarding something that shouldn’t even be an inconvenience to you. You just choose to be difficult without having a real reason. Except you hate the word AI.
What AI feature is it exactly, that you think is detrimental to your normal use of Firefox?
I mean heck I would prefer to not even download the components
Why? And how many other features would you prefer not to download? The plugins interface maybe? Video and audio Codecs? Support for PNG? The theming capability? How many plugins do you have? What about AI features is it that is so especially horrible to you?
I just tried a banana, it exceeded my expectations.
