While Microsoft might begin autosaving your documents to their cloud. ed(1) will never autosave your documents, and will only ever store them where you explicitly specify.

HT: @BleepingComputer

Microsoft says that Word for Windows will soon enable autosave and automatically save all new documents to the cloud by default.

@catsalad If you want the sub and a soda, you order the Dunn Special with ICE

Every sub shop in downtown DC should have a new menu item:

End of Japanese community at Mozilla due to the introduction of AI-based translation.

The community members have expressed disappointment and frustration that their long term volunteer efforts and local knowledge were being replaced by machine translation, which they felt did not match the quality of human provided support.

This is why Mozilla sucks so much, they are going crazy like rest of the industry.

My post is a bit obnoxious, admittedly, but the more serious point is that Windows takes a lot of setting up to make work in a reasonable way, but that kind of gets priced in because (a) it's seen as optional, (b) it's the kind of invisible thing folks are largely already used to.

But also? That article on *how to install Windows 11* drops into the command line in just a few paragraphs.

Linux is so hard to use and configure.

What I love is how Zohran Mamdani's father Mahmood found out about Marx.

"Soon after, he learned about Karl Marx's work from an FBI visit." -wikipedia

FBI guy said, “Do you like Marx?”

I said, “I haven’t met him.”

Guy said, “No, no, he’s dead.”

“Wow, what happened?”

“No, no, he died long ago.”

I thought the guy Marx had just died. So then, “Why are you asking me if he died long ago?”

“No, he wrote a lot. He wrote that poor people should not be poor.”

I said, “Sounds amazing.”

"I just don't understand 67. This generation has brainrot."

My dude may I introduce you to 1994 when, like 90% of the boys in my school went around reciting "I am the great Cornholio" and "I need TP for my bunghole" for no apparent reason.

And there was much confusion and amusement over the browser changing its name twice in the space of two years. So Cosmic Cat made a Firefox extension called "Firesomething" which randomizes the browser branding every time it starts up, letting you relive the Firefox renaming era for as long as you liked. Doesn't work on modern Firefox, alas.

I guess I should probably explain this one

So back in 2002 Mozilla released a beta web browser called Phoenix. Only Phoenix Technologies, who made BIOSes for computers, didn't like that, so they got them to change it. In 2003 it became Firebird, which kind of meant the same thing. Except the Firebird database didn't like another open source project using *their* name, so Mozilla ended up renaming it again in 2004 as "Firefox”.
