It could mean either that they plan to remove the actual Internet Explorer browser and just leave an iexplore.exe stub that only has enough code in it to launch Edge.

Conceptually, a lot of how Internet Explorer is designed was copied in Linux desktops like KDE and GNOME. For example, KDE had KHTML and Konqueror was all sorts of things, including a file manager, an FTP browser, a Web browser, a Gopher client, and KHTML was loaded sort of like IE loads Trident. Konqueror actually was a good program though. Before XP SP2, you could open the Windows Explorer and turn it into [02:24] DaemonFC an Internet Explorer by typing a Web address into the bar instead of something from the local system. [02:25] DaemonFC And so KDE saw how this all worked and did Konqueror similarly, and it worked very well as Konqueror in KDE.

[02:29] TR News Nowadays the purpose of OSI seems to be bagging money from companies like Microsoft to help pay a salary or two; it's not protecting the brand or the mission. [02:29] DaemonFC And so GNOME benefits from Webkit being "just an engine" that something else can grab and swallow.

[02:29] TR News Torvalds must "tolerate" Microsoft moles now... to avoid being sent to "therapists" again... by an employer that's controlled by Microsaofters. [02:30] DaemonFC It's kind of a super basic browser. It doesn't even have WebExtensions for now. It gets away with it mostly because 80% of browser users don't have a single extension anyway, and those that have one, it's almost always an ad blocker. And Web has an ad blocker built-in. [02:31] DaemonFC They plan to add WebExtensions over several cycles. I think version 44 will have most of the infrastructure in place.

It's like, other people have been very angry at ending up on South Park. [02:35] DaemonFC But it's been on for almost 30 years and they've never been sued because it's kind of hard to show in court that someone parodying Barbra Streisand as MechaGodzilla was harmful in a way that someone would have taken seriously.

Sometimes Readability fails to find an article, or fully extract it, so I added in "raw mode [02:49] schestowitz[TR] " as a kind of backup which would convert all of the HTML.

[05:05] DaemonFC The company my dad sank almost 30 years of his life into. [05:06] DaemonFC That division was sold off under Bankruptcy administration for 100 million Euro in the middle of last year. [05:06] DaemonFC What would that be in dollars? Close, I think. [05:06] DaemonFC The Euro is not what it was. [05:07] DaemonFC $106 million in USD terms. [05:07] DaemonFC That's not a lot of money. [05:07] DaemonFC They went from being a tech company producing hardware equivalent to Sony's, much of it from that era still working today if you have a DTA TV converter. [05:07] DaemonFC Even without repairs. [05:08] DaemonFC To being sold off for $106 million. [05:08] DaemonFC The strong Euro is probably what killed off Mandriva, honestly. [05:08] DaemonFC Their software and services were priced in a currency that was massively overvalued, which made it impossible to export. [05:10] DaemonFC If the Euro had not been overvalued from the early 2000s onward, they probably would have had an easier time licensing it in countries where it was unaffordable or at least uncompetitive due to the currency exchange issue. [05:10] DaemonFC It's not like you can't just make a Linux distribution and sell it in your home country. [05:10] DaemonFC So I think the Euro helped RHT clobber them into extinction. [05:11] DaemonFC The only market it could sell in realistically was the Eurozone. [05:11] DaemonFC Financially, they've been a dumpster fire for a long time. [05:11] DaemonFC The true extent of it was merely hidden so that they could keep financing their exorbitant expenses. [05:11] DaemonFC Like a massive public sector and lots of welfare. [05:12] DaemonFC Now they're bankrupt and the pensioners are rioting over "work until you're 68, no 70, no 75....". [05:12] DaemonFC Burning shit in the street. [05:12] DaemonFC Worrying about "yanks". Worried about everything except where they are, and what they should be doing. [05:13] DaemonFC The Euro is trash. [05:14] DaemonFC Europe has been having currency shocks and inflation and devaluation and tax increases, to the point where you're afraid to even turn the heat on or take a hot shower in Germany. [05:14] DaemonFC And so some people blame the US for that. [05:15] DaemonFC Building up a dependence on an unstable dictatorship for 70% of your energy needs.....yeah, totally the fault of Americans. [05:15] DaemonFC They ought to cut the shit. They should have cut the shit a long time ago. [05:15] DaemonFC The EU is using Climate Change as a crushing wheel to kill the poor. [05:16] DaemonFC And America isn't there yet because a lot of people here haven't been stupid enough to let the wealthy elite sell us that narrative. [05:16] DaemonFC Just sacrifice everything from your showers to your car to meat to hot water to coffee. [05:16] DaemonFC Sew an ipad into your skin and cut your dick off and eat bugs. [05:17] DaemonFC I was talking to the podiatrist about "Climate Change". I said that they're using it to sell us on all of these unreliable power sources that are at least partially responsible for the Texas grid collapses. [05:18] DaemonFC And you can't get much power out of them and it's not a reliable baseload. [05:18] DaemonFC You can't always expect the wind or the sun, and when you can you never get an ideal amount of power out of solar cells because of where Illinois actually is. [05:19] DaemonFC And there's no responsible way to cut these things up and dispose of them. Nobody recycles them, so they're just more junk in a landfill after producing a lot of expensive and unreliable power for a little while. [05:20] IPFS () Planet Gemini updated.

[05:20] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR], It's going nowhere. [05:20] DaemonFC We won't be able to run even the prototype reliably. [05:21] DaemonFC It will be an unproven design, with bugs. The only experiments of this type were more than 60 years ago, and they could never make it work reliably then [05:21] DaemonFC They had about 500% more downtime than they planned and then gave up. [05:22] DaemonFC Molten Salt Reactors are the mRNA COVID shots of nuclear power. [05:22] DaemonFC Could you make them work? Maybe. Are they practical? Hell no. They're dangerous. They're expensive. You don't know how they'll function.

[05:23] DaemonFC Bill sez. [05:24] DaemonFC When the experts are saying slow down because this probably won't work and you're wasting your money, but in this other corner you have a rich criminal who was pals with Epstein. [05:24] DaemonFC Nothing I've read about molten salt reactors has inspired me with a lot of confidence about them. [05:24] DaemonFC Bill Gates is a flim-flam man. [05:25] DaemonFC The fusion power experiments that are producing more energy than went into them have changed things even more. [05:26] DaemonFC With the money we're pissing away on Bill Gates and his investment in molten salt, we could be researching fusion energy. [05:28] DaemonFC Hydrogen fusion doesn't risk a runaway reaction the same way that a nuclear fission reactor can meltdown. In the case of fission, the reaction wants to accelerate all by itself to catastrophic effect and if you don't slow it down, that's exactly what happens inside of a minute or two. [05:29] DaemonFC You can get, you know, horrible disasters that leave the core exposed and kill all life on a continent inside of 6-7 months if you don't get it contained, which is exactly what happened in Ukraine in 1986. [05:29] DaemonFC That's what the projection was. [05:29] DaemonFC Pretty much everything dead in 6-7 months. [05:30] DaemonFC The cleanup effort was rushed and they expoded many thousands of people to horrible levels of radiation because it was get it contained or else. [05:30] DaemonFC *exposed [05:30] DaemonFC I don't even want to think about what a nuclear reactor exploding would look like in America.

[05:31] DaemonFC "GenZ" would be too busy crying in the bathroom that someone was mean to them during their shift at Starbucks.

[05:33] DaemonFC I don't see any Americans who aren't so Narcissistic and self-absorbed that they'd go near it. Not even to save other people. Not even for money. [05:33] DaemonFC They offer people $19 an hour now to stock shelves at Walmart. [05:33] DaemonFC Nobody shows up. [05:34] DaemonFC We couldn't get 40% of the people in this country to take COVID shots when there was an argument that they *might* slow things down. [05:34] DaemonFC We couldn't get half of them to wear a mask. [05:34] DaemonFC 20-30% thought it was funny to get right up in your face when they knew they were sick. [05:35] DaemonFC Some knocked over mask displays, punched store clerks, and shot people for asking them to wear a mask. [05:35] DaemonFC What happened in Japan?
