The feature of morging bugfixes from rel continvoucly into develop as Tim moves backward has been removed, but the Wayback Machine captured the Microslop: web.archive.org/web/2026021616

This is truly glorious #AISlop from #Microslop in their "Introduction to Github" course.

I don't know why Tim is working in the opposite direction, but I can see that he never once "morges" his code back into develop, let alone doing it "continvoucly"

Today I saved multiple people from throwing away beloved and expensive electronics.

Repair should always be an option.

@Loosf So based on the screenshots I have this is actually from a different but similar post, but I think this is the one you're probably thinking of?

PSA: Did you know that it’s **unsafe** to put code diffs into your commit messages?

Like github.com/i3/i3/pull/6564 for example

Such diffs will be applied by patch(1) (also git-am(1)) as part of the code change!

This is how a sleep(1) made it into i3 4.25-2 in Debian unstable.

IE4 is my main target and Firefox current is my ultimate target, but Dillo, Links, RetroZilla, and SeaMonkey (last for Win98 and current, both) are proving at least as useful as Firefox's Responsive Design Mode in testing and debugging.

I am learning so much modern CSS for features that most websites rely on slower JS to achieve, and I'm learning how to shield modern CSS's side effects from older and early popular browsers.

This is so much more labor than I expected, using every age of CSS to make CSS-free HTML layout table pages look better and responsive, but it's a labor of love. And joy. And bliss.

blog, February 2, 2026, "AI controls are coming to Firefox": blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/ai

So I like that the next will have a long overdue on/off switch.

However, because like the dudebros and techbros before them AI bros never learned boundaries or consent, the AI slop still isn't turned off by default. It still isn't the opt-in this compromise should be. It still isn't the opt-in the whole AI feature set should've been from the start.

Alright. So. A few things.

  1. The right time to give me a choice in whether or not unasked 'AI' 'features' were shoved down my throat was before you did the shoving
  2. Making everyone refer to obscure guides that involve bypassing scare warnings in order to turn those features off is phenomenally bad user experience
  3. The unasked for, unwanted 'AI' features you've been shoving down our throats behave — from a user perspective — similar to cryptojacking in that their computer suddenly performs very poorly without transparency to the user about why or a choice about turning it off (again, the wrong time to ask is after you've already done the bad thing)
  4. I am not signing up for yet another god damn thing just so I can tell you so
