"Mozilla has been adding in llm & ai related features to Firefox for a while, enabling them by default without asking the user... The main problem with this is users are having this forced on them with no gui option to disable these features."

Article contains instructions for disabling the LLM through about:config.

YouTube expands age verification to more users. Several users are reporting on Reddit seeing new restrictions being applied to their accounts.

Yesterday evening, a barred owl flew over hunting for dinner. He/she perched on a branch for a few minutes. He then dived to the ground. It was around 6:30pm, a couple of minutes before sunset. Even it's getting dark in wooded area, you still can see how graceful his posture was.

I know we all enjoy being nerds and using commands (H4ckerman). But now that everything is either a gui or web based, is there really any use to terminal commands?

For example, on windows I never used powershell or cmd hardly ever. I realize now I probably could have. But Linux just drives me to use it more, which i like anyway (because let's be honest, it makes us feel superior)

The last time I remember paying for one was back in 2008 before Voice Memos was introduced. Do they not realise that they have the stock app? I get that some may have bought them for transcriptions and other features before they were added to the stock app, but they still seem to be selling? The app I’ve linked is #1 on the UK App Store (the paid Business category), is £5.99 and offers no additional features (in general none of them do) over the stock app.

The federal government shutdown canceled a second straight jobs report, but private data sources suggest the labor market has weakened modestly since summer.

The groping of Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum on a downtown street shone a bright light on the gender violence women face every day, but the country's political polarization has tarnished what under other circumstances would seem a natural moment for national solidarity, analysts say.

The president has tried to use the assault to send a clear message that such behavior is not acceptable. She has explained why she decided to press charges against the drunk man; she used her bully pulpit to pressure the remaining states that don't have sexual harassment on the books as a crime; and she talked about the need to make it easier for women to report such crimes.

But almost immediately political opponents accused her of using the incident to distract from another burning issue in Mexico: political violence. The previous weekend, a popular mayor in the western state of Michoacan was gunned down in public during Day of the Dead festivities. Protests against the violence were happening in several cities in the state and Sheinbaum was under pressure to offer new solutions for the state's persistent violence.
