So? There is no way for the vast majority of users to read or understand the source for something like Firefox - to the point it may as well be closed source. Agreed of course plenty of security researchers will be examining the code which they can’t with Vivaldi - but presumably if that was a security advantage Firefox would have less vulnerabilities when compared to other browsers. (Actually would be interested to see if this is the case!)

zebsto Ask Lemmy•People who watched Flash Gordon in the 80s, what number channel did you watch it on1·2 years agoIn the UK, and no idea until I found this site https://tvrdb.com which allows you to search old TV listings.
It was BBC1.
Got the Blu-ray a few years back. I think the BBC might have cut a few bits.

One small village of indomitable Gauls still holds out against the invaders. And life is not easy for the Roman legionaries who garrison the fortified camps of Totorum, Aquarium, Laudanum and Compendium…”
zebsto Android@lemdro.id•What's the actual advantage of eSIM over a physical SIM?English6·2 years agoDon’t even need an app. I got an eSIM via a QR code (which went to a website where the eSIM was downloaded). This was on a Pixel 6. I guess the process may be different on other phones.
zebsto politics •The Trump Proceedings WILL Be Televised and Streamed Live on YouTube, Judge Rules in Georgia3·2 years agoCouldn’t members of the public do the same?
Is there any possibility that this lawsuit is an attempt to get a favourable (to the republican party) ruling (that Trump can stand) by presenting a poor case and therefore blocking a properly prepared and presented case on the basis that it has already been ruled on?

Pikey I think.
Brick top is a superb character and played really well
zebsto Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•Gulf Coast carbon capture gets $1 billion boost from Biden administration2·2 years agoIt’s either:
- a distraction. In the UK similar projects were recently announced… at the same time as new licenses for new oil drilling in the North Sea.
- something that will get better and improve its performance as it’s built and developed.
I suspect it’s no 1, but hope also no 2 will happen.
