That’s interesting and led me down a wikipedia rabbit hole. So the law in the US says that fictional child pornography (i.e., where it is drawn and this is not “indistinguishable” from a minor) is illegal if it is “obscene.” And the definition of “obscene” essentially comes down to “would the average member of the community find it offensive.”

That takes “grey area” to a whole new level.

I was under the impression that even clearly drawn it’s already illegal, though it’s a grey area since they can say “lol it’s a 1000 year old demon that just looks like a child.” Is that not the case?

Yeah it seems like they use different “chunks” so I don’t think it would be cross compatible.

I wish there was some way to share the assets since they use the same base data. I use osmand because I find it better for hiking and route planning to send to my watch, but would use organic as well if I I didn’t need to keep two copies of the maps.

Why stop at Arch? I had to write my own kernel in college let’s make everyone do that.

Yes, I’m posting this to point out the silliness of your idea.

Two of the ads are for the same company, and that company is also one of the two organic results.

So I drive a Bronco that’s 99% stock. I have a roof rack that I added. I do go offroading, but we also have it to tow behind our motorhome since the bronco is flat towable.

I ran into this guy who’s in a new (last 5 years), heavily modded Wrangler. He has the fenders cut away, huge winch on the front, etc… I ask him if he has any favorite spots around here and he says “nah I don’t really get out and do that anymore.”

Yeah, maybe 50 years ago but with the popularity of SUVs Jeep is dominant at Stellantis. They sell almost as many Wranglers as Dodge sells vehicles in total.

Jeep sells more than twice as many vehicles per year as Dodge. They are not the “small brand.”

It all just depends on the level of blocking you put in place. Basic adblock and malware lists tend to not break much if anything. It’s when you get into tracker blocking that some sites break.

It’s mobile where I like the tab groups really, and unfortunately the extensions I’ve found that try to mimic the functionality don’t work there. Honestly that’s the big one but it’s pretty major for me. With the way I tend to browse and research topics it’s hard to manage without tab groups.

The only other big one is services that don’t support Firefox. I use GeForce Now for game streaming so I do that through Brave.

Fair, unfortunately though the chromium browsers have features that I enjoy that are not available in Firefox on mobile (for example, tab groups).

Odd, I’ve been using Brave for a few months now and have not seen any ads on YouTube. I specifically use it on my phone to avoid YouTube ads and allow background playback.

Brave and Vivaldi are chromium based but have adblocking built in rather than relying on an extension. So while they will eventually be impacted on extension support, the built in adblocking (which is quite robust) won’t be affected.

Yeah they were using AT&T. Remember that at the time Kindle books were limited with respect to images so you’re talking a couple megabytes tops. The Lord of the Rings trilogy in its entirety, images and all, is 12MB. The primary use case was whisper sync which is just sending page numbers.

Plus this was on 3G while AT&T had moved mostly over to LTE, so you weren’t competing for bandwidth with most subscribers. I imagine Amazon got a pretty good deal, but more importantly it helped cement them as the default option for e-readers.

I grew up on 64, but 8 Deluxe is incredible. Great variety of courses and karts, great mechanics.

Is there a good mobile browser that…

• Supports adblock?
• Doesn’t have as many rendering issues as Firefox on mobile sites?

I know the latter isn’t Firefox’s fault, but it still impacts the end user.

…and then we’re back at “someone can take that model and tag real images to appear AI-generated.”

You would need a closed-source model run server-side in order to prevent that.

I highly doubt any commercially available service is going to get in on officially generating photorealistic CSAM.

What would stop someone from creating a tool that tagged real images as AI generated?

Have at it with drawings that are easily distinguished, but if anything is photorealistic I feel like it needs to be treated as real.
