The trouble with relying on each community to self-host is that it’s unlikely to ever make it to the masses that way. Self-hosting is a significant barrier.

I don’t think Nostr can take on Discord. A big part of Discord is the voice chat channels, which, as far as I know, Nostr just isn’t built for.

They do. Well, I should say Thunderbird is also under the Foundation, but is developed by a separate subsidiary Corp (MZLA Tech Corp) than Firefox (Mozilla Corp).

He was CEO briefly, until the controversy over his appointment got loud enough. It makes sense he would’ve been paid the most that year, especially with the golden parachute CEOs get when they leave.

His appointment remains one of the most damaging events in Mozilla’s history, as it led to the resignation of multiple prior leaders (including previous CEOs). Making him CEO might’ve been Mitch Baker’s worst decision as chairwoman.

If only there were a search index I thought was still good.

Mojeek (UK-based) is trying. I wasn’t super impressed by their index yet, though.

If you look at the kwebkitpart commits, it looks like it’s been nothing but localization for years.

Konqueror is more or less dead as a browser. I don’t even think kwebkitpart is maintained anymore since QtWebkit was abandoned with Qt6.

The Noctua fan option should be pretty quiet.

Having such niche features available as modules is a big part of the value proposition Framework provides.

I would love to have a color epaper display option on a machine like this.

Most fission plants transfer the heat away from the reactor before boiling water. The same can be done with fusion.

The main difference with fusion is you have to convert some of the released energy to heat first. Various elements have been proposed for this.

They weren’t trying to generate electricity in this experiment. They were trying to sustain a reaction. As you said in another comment, they are different problems.

Converting heat to electricity is a problem we already understand pretty well since we’ve been doing it basically the same way since the first power plant fired up. Sustaining a fusion reaction is a problem we’ve barely started figuring out.
