usually ketamine would have an opposite effect, other things like alcohol and stimulants will amplify those things. much like musk, he probably uses alcohol alot too.

crypto, homophobia, fits in with conservatives they all believe in these types of scams. either they buy into crypto, or they are peddling it-themselves.

It's always the ones you most expect

Right? How could anyone possibly be shocked by this?

Look, fool me sixteen times, shame one you. Fool me twenty six times, shame on you. We won't get fooled again.

If I'm reading their financial records correctly, the year he left Mozilla was the year he was paid the most, even though he didn't stick around for most of it. So this retelling of history is, at best, incomplete...

Oh, is that where the name Brave came from?

"Irish need not apply" was a common thing in job ads at one time; asshat here is doing the usual conservative thing of pretending to be unfairly persecuted

I think this is just a CEO likening personal opinions to racial oppression. The example he chose might be a little ironic too.

Ohh, Thanks I did need a dictionary for the OP, but you still left out the racist 4chan verbiage around the etymology ("CIA N*s glow in the dark"). https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/glowie#English

"You should consider the effects of your words and actions on other people."

Tech CEOs:

Extremely online echo chamber talk doesnt make sense in any language if youre ourside that echo chamber.

Him being a 4chan shitbird means most the people here on lemmy likely weren't going to be clue'd in immediately.

its from terry davis, the schizophrenic talented developer who wrote his own OS (TempleOS) from scratch as one of gods temples or something, however he was pretty racist and delusional, so would see "glowies" of CIA agents or whatever trying to get him, and now the term is used for people suspecting others of being federal agents

To expand on your second point in case anyone isn't sure what you mean:

Different browsers render webpages slightly differently, because they use different "engines". The most popular browsers are Chrome or Edge, both of these which use the Blink engine, whereas Firefox uses a different engine called Gecko.

Web developers want their websites to work for most people, so they develop websites that are optimized to run in Blink, which means they sometimes don't look as intended on Gecko (Firefox). It's not Firefox's fault that developers are doing this -- of course developers want to reach the most users possible. There's nothing wrong with Gecko, either -- if it were more popular, then developers would build sites for it instead of for Blink. But, this issue of sites breaking can sometimes turn people off.

(Conversely, I develop for Firefox first, so sometimes webpages I make don't render properly in Chrome/Edge. That's not ideal, but I don't care much. I think Gecko is the better + more consistent engine, and I'm not interested in chasing mass appeal.)

Firefox + ublock origin + android is the best browsing experience on mobile.

Ever since I switched to GrapheneOS, Vanadium has been working well. Never had a problem with Firefox + ublock, or Librewolf (except with a corporate intranet webapp that specifically required users to use Chrome).

While it's a Firefox fork, Ironfox works great for me.

Cromite on Android checks both those boxes. Ad blocking isn't great, but the developer isn't Brave.

Firefox + uBlock Origin might be better if you haven't tried that specific extension before. It works more than okay for me, but I realize YMMV and that's especially true for non-flagships
