iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

OH and super important note! It doesn't matter what other people use. Lauding one browser over another is dull and joyless. They are free to choose just like you are free to choose.

Each of these projects built by passionate people who care about making the software better for you. Maybe you won't find the browser for you. Maybe its unmaintained and unstable. In the end, if it makes you happy, does it really matter? Be the change you want to see

Don't like chromium, Firefox or waterfox. Great there's more options!! Can I interest you in a non Firefox browser such as Ladybug? Need it to be lightweight. Dillo is a browser that'll run on anything. 26 years young and had a stable release 4 months ago! Look at all these options :)

Too much browser drama in my timeline. Time to twist it into something positive. Computers (and the software that runs in it) should make you happy. If you don't like the way a project is going, then you can switch!

Not to mention that you have to PAY 1000$ for the privilege of reading some spec like IEEE 802.11

AI is on the same path as uber or netflix. Start of cheap and incredible, then get enshitified over the next 5 years

What?? Crop rotations are real and there's actual science measuring it's effect. Unless you can prove the machine is thinking, what are we doing?

LLMs are technically still machine learning, but otherwise yes. They are different things.

Okay, so you are arguing that its pointless to want any kind of privacy, as its all going be collected anyway?

Not sharing your data works

Ahahah there's so much data you have which you would like to keep secret. There's a reason you have a right to privacy.

Not that its needed, but I give you permission to get as many pizzas as you want with the money I donate

Oh man. I'm sure its costing the attacker far more than it's costing you. Still its gotta be rough paying for all this

I did something like this recently! Reworked a bare metal Ethernet driver to 10x the bandwidth. Lots of pipelining and keeping the hardware happy. Sometimes the naive implement works and you don't realize how much performance you are missing
