   Impressive. However I regret that we don't see when they commented with "Fuck". Not for the word, clearly, but because the face that went with it should have been really powerful. I hope that now sysadmins from all over the w

   Good question: not that I know, but I don't think this should imply anything about the project.

    I wonder about it too, but I don't think that's the case. I mean, even their offices (like the new one, in Paris) are not just a luxury show off, but they're meant and actually used to attract new volunteers, host events to f

    It isn't adware anyway. 1. It shows ads only to a small fraction of new users and for a limited period of time. 2. It uses ads to provide a revenue diversity . Ads are just a new revenue source. Not the only one.

    Firefox costs money. If it doesn't get it from the users (like it never was) or from Google (like it could soon be), it needs to find some way to fund anyway. This kind of advertising worries me a little but I find it acceptable. If yo

    Those interested in MediaGoblin might also find Trovebox interesting. https://github.com/photo http://trovebox.com/ I just hope they are talking to each other to share their federation. Would be dumb not to

    Or maybe the reason why nothing like oldversion.com exists ofr web apps is something else. Like: * Apps are update because of security fixes. * Open source web apps aren't viable[1] [1] https://blog.sandstorm.io/news&#x

    I misread "shut down" instead: thank you for correcting me. Still: people respond to incentives and turning down an idea like that and letting the employees know that… this is an incentive and it may have lead to some results. So

    Yes, but whitelist is supposed to be for unobtrusive and not tracking ads. Then Google pays and… it is on whitelist! I cannot help but think that by using ABP instead of Adblock Edge you are giving ABP developers means to blackmail advertis

    Sorry if I wrote that nothing was done. What I really meant was that no change happened, and even the discussion for the bug at a first glance doesn't let understand if there is a clear path toward deterministic builds. What would it b
