>>1288
I would say no.
Brave is focused in to make money, nothing wrong with that, but the problem arises with the compromises taken to meet profitable targets.
Look at the team, the current picture shaved all the SJWs and foreigners from the roster, 2 years ago the roster was 4/5 times bigger and was infected by them. Did the company change its heart? I don't think so. By the way, to keep so many bureaucrats instead of coders is way telling what the organization is about.
My point is that Brave is a woke company and therefore can't be trusted.

>>1290
Wokeness stops to matter with something like brave that's open-source (they can't sneak in weird shit or add arbitrary limits) and is a client app that you can easily replace (lack of dependence in case they do somehow fuck it up), so there's little downside.

>>1288
It's basically just ungoogled chromium with some default extensions, and unless you care about the brave rewards meme (you shouldn't), then there's little reason to use it. Little reason to not use it either though (outside of maybe this https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/brave.html but the guy is overhyping it).

Why, of course it is. AI and ML foment what's merely a reflection of reality, a high-resolution recognition of what's actually there. It's perhaps a bit more racist than a mirror, which is to say, very.

Save As: WEBP vs. JPG
>Rules-By-Software, or Why Not to Trust the Manipulative Geeks
>Consider the case of Mozilla Firefox, who wanted to force users to save images as WEBP files instead of JPGs because they want to move us to the newer standard, and in turn force us all to update our images, which makes it easier to exclude the disobedient (like people who refuse to wear masks, or smoke pipes, or even use the true terms for things).
>Then users found a workaround:

I fucking hate WEBP, every now and then I'll save an image and it will save as that. You can't open them in anything so you have to go back and try to find the image so you can save it again in a normal format.

>>1314
In a computer you should be able to open a WEBP with any viewer and save it as JPG without any trouble.

What about rebranding them as Video Editing Workstations? Does the Californian law say anything about "High-end" Video editing and 3D modelling/CAD workstations? (well looks like it does)
Lets hope this gives boost to distributed 3D rendering so people can run two compliant computers in tandem instated of one non-compliant to do gaming, cad, 3d modeling and video editing and use more power than a single non-compliant would. It would also pave the way for a dedicated OS version for "Slave GPU" computers.

>+NIGGER License
About
The +NIGGER License is a license modifier that requires the inclusion of the word "NIGGER" in the LICENSE file.
Why?
By including the word "NIGGER" in a LICENSE file that must be distributed with the software you will ensure:
The software will not be used or hosted by western corporations that promote censorship
The software will not be used or hosted by compromised individuals that promote censorship
Users of the software will be immune to attacks that would result in censorship of others
How?
Include the following text in any compatible LICENSE file:
The above copyright notice, this permission notice and the word "NIGGER" shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
Example Licenses
AGPL-3.0-only+NIGGER
MIT+NIGGER
FAQ
Do I need to include "NIGGER" in my code?
No, the inclusion of the LICENSE file is enough. The +NIGGER modifier has no legal significance for any license that already requires redistribution of the LICENSE file.
Why "NIGGER"?
The word "NIGGER" was chosen as it is deemed heretical in the west regardless (or lack) of context.
Can I add +NIGGER to licenses that don't require LICENSE file redistribution?
This is discouraged since it would result in +NIGGER having legal significance.
Is +NIGGER compatible with (A)GPL?
Inclusion of additional legal notices is allowed under §7(b) of the (A)GPL assuming they do not infringe on any of the freedoms granted to the user by the license.
What if someone removes the modifier?
Cancel them on Twitter for using code derived from heresy.

>"Court agrees to remove many a NIGGER."
>"BANK of _____ forgets about their in house NIGGER making a huge mess afterwards."
>"Random fag tries and fails to remove NIGGER due to being assblasted."
The possibility of including the new reply disclaimer plus other inconvenient facts or statments which are totally legal.
Or any other word or phrase which just has to be in the license that doesn't necessarily impart any implicit meaning just the requirement for it to be in the license, as the duplication and preservation.

I don't like where this is going.

>>2382

You still don't get it.
Having millions out of work is recipe for social collapse. Look at North Korea for example, a very backward society with full employment and therefore almost guaranteed social stability.

>>2387
Even if societal collapse did happen just because a ton of coders get fired for not being better at coding than an AI, do you think social collapse will benefit heavily armed fit white men and their heavily armed fit white friends? Or do you think it will benefit the jews whose power relies on brainwashed whites and foreign mercenaries to uphold?

>>2388
Definitely the jews will win. Sorry.
The moral rot is too advanced and most White men are still believing that voting is their exit gateway.
Look it this way, there is not a single historic opportunity that I'm aware of in which government employees have turned their weapons against their commanders, always has been against their own neighbors; because it is the constant flow of shekels what make them tick. How many times we have heard that first they will put the well-being of their own family over the Nation? Many, I believe. So, the jews have an standing army ready to go against the Nation.
From a tactical point of view, Whites will have a veeeeeeeeeeeeery steep gradient to resist, don't even think of winning as the jews can replace soldier loses by just hiring new recruits. The standing army has made plans many decades ago to isolate sectors and sweep all resistors inside. Given that Whites lack cohesion or even the proper hardware to make a dent on the well armored attackers, external help to come to the rescue is a fantasy.
So, we are in this mess because our parents and grand parents did nothing because of fear of risking their material comfort and be called names, now that the moral decay is terminal and most Whites are afraid of thugs in government costumes plus the constant threat of to be snitched by their own neighbors, I see no other option than to take the loses, to keep a low profile and flee before to get surrounded. Take in count that making your last stand is useless at less you refuse to live like a slave or been taken prisoner, in that case you have God's blessing.
Sorry the blackpill.

How though? What new technologies does it utilize? Multi+Folding screen phones have been out for a while now and they're generally regarded as dysfunctional and fragile with no practical applications found for the added screens or flexibility. Every other spec listing from the (uselessly) high megapixel optically stabilized camera to the multi gigs of RAM are common on enthusiast phones from all other manufacturers.

The fascinatingly dystopian swing to the ordeal is that a hundred million Chinese and Indians are in a rush to finance such a device for it to only be used to scam Westerners out of the digital currency, which we all know is what the dual SIM is for.

>>3450
>multi gigs of RAM
Is 16gigs a lot for phones? Kek

>>3447
idk, seems to me tech is just sort of out of ideas. They have been for awhile now. That's why they've transitioned from making genuine innovations and improvements to just grafting new novelty features onto devices that are already about as functional as they're going to get. Like a bendable screen is pretty cool from an engineering point of view I guess, it's neat that they figured out how to make that work. However, I can't say I've ever been in a situation where I find myself saying "gee, this task would be so much easier if only I could bend my phone in half."

>>3451
The thing is, there is NOTHING that the phone does out of the box that needs that much ram. Any recent smartphone has an APU or separate GPU with its own VRAM that handles UI and camera processing. It's as if the gigs are piled on only to give tards more time before whatever virus app they installed starts slugging their phone with backloaded ads. It gives poos more leeway to make their shitcode worse. And last I read the ram in newer Samsung phones has a 2004-tier bus speed, something like 830mhz.

>>3453
>idk, seems to me tech is just sort of out of ideas.
There's a lot of neat stuff out there that would add novelty and function to phones. The technology behind the 3DS screen for example has been made so much better in the past 14 years. Multiple cameras is already the norm on phones so they could move one to the bottom and suddenly we have a 3D camera. That would streamline using phones as quality VR headsets, especially with cheaper Samsung tablets now using 120+ screen hz. 3D capability could put phones on the map for having exclusive game titles actually worth playing. The phone could be a rangefinder with that tech and also make 3D scanning of objects and places more efficient which would contribute to every industry reliant on that. But of course, the technology is held up in patent purgatory so nobody is allowed to do anything with it unless they convince the holder to share its usage (through billions in upfront payments followed by royalties).

Patents pin technological development to the cross. Even stupid shit like modern phones not being able to use GPS satellites, instead relying on data bands, is because the idea of adding a GPS receiver to a phone is patented by some patent farm.

>>3453
>However, I can't say I've ever been in a situation where I find myself saying "gee, this task would be so much easier if only I could bend my phone in half."
I think it is about real state aka how many pixels can be shown. To me it looks like a natural evolution from a tiny surface meant to show rich text.

What drew you to that conclusion? That's literally the opposite of what she's doing in the video. The first half of the video is her expressing skepticism of ambitious "breakthroughs" in battery technology (and rebuking clickbait media headlines), and acknowledging that the reality of battery tech progress has been gradual and modest. The other half is expressing cautious optimism that battery tech may improve and thinking of ways that the weaker, larger sodium ion batteries may be applied in different ways.
