Yeah, Russia has never been a place where privacy is legal.

Is this a meme or just real life?

Firefox could be doomed without Google search deal, says executive in c/pulse_of_truth@infosec.pub
[–] GeneralDingus@lemmy.cafe 5 points 2 months ago

It does seem unfortunate that Mozilla seems to have gotten complacent with Google money.

I think they have some great products and we need an alternative Firefox to survive but come on, who depends on a competitor to survive?!

Thoughts on EV motorcycles? (lemmy.cafe)
 

Thinking about getting one, what did y'all think? Looking at the Zeros.

Simple EV cars (lemmy.cafe)
 

Does anyone think that there'll ever be a simple EV car produced for market without all the extra junk found in most electric cars? Why or why not?

I don't see the need for the infotainment dash, personal data tracking, self-driving, lack of physical buttons, and lack or reparability.

Wouldn't it be nice to have an EV that is probably cheaper without all that forced extra stuff? Can't we just have a simple EV that has an electric engine that is reliable, cheaper, and doesn't have a need for constant software updates? Maybe you can work on it in your garage for the most part for simple maintenance.

I'd really like to have an EV one day but seems like they are all super expensive, have no sense of ownership like typical cars, are constantly tracking you, and are trying to shove extra features down your throat.
