Coming up in this episode No YOU'RE Not Optimized How do WE join the resistance? Firefox gets a killswitch And Discord kicks the can The Video Version https://youtu.be/oGVbHhCH9Lk 0:00 Cold Open 2:55 Searchin' with Kagi 27:13 Resistance Is Not Futile 49:09 The Firefox Kill Switch! 1:04:15 Discord Backtracks & Next Time 1:15:02 Stinger We start off with a little on how our Kagi search project is going. And it'd be going a lot better if Leo could stop weighing the pros and cons of each search and their impact on the quota. Also, a little about Orion and why its tabbed layout is much better than the rest. Then, F-Droid is back in the news with a new lament about the dwindling amount of time left before the September Sideload cutoff. Time to make a little more noise, it seems. And finally, Firefox gets the long awaited Kill Switch, but was it actually backtracking? We make the case for why that might not have actually been the case, but welcome the toggle either way. Oh, and in Next Time, we accidentally slip in a small segment about Discord and what backtracking actually looks like! More on that in a future episode as Discord is where we are a lot of the time. 📣Announcements📣 This program was made possible by: 📺️Youtube 📽️TILvids And by contributions to your L-U-S station by Patrons like you 😍 Kagi Checkin Kagi Search 📣More Announcements📣 Want to have a topic covered or have some feedback? - send us an email, contact@linuxuserspace.show OR jump on over to the open forum on Lemmy Follow up to the Google Developer Verification for Android F-Droid statement The Open Letter 🧹Housekeeping🧹 Catch these and other great topics as they unfold on our Subreddit or our News channel on Discord. 🗞️ Linux User Space Lemmy 📰 Linux User Space subreddit ⌨️ Linux User Space Discord Server 📲 Linux User Space Telegram ✉️ Linux User Space Matrix 📽️ Linux User Space Twitch 🐘 Linux User Space Mastodon 📜 Linux User Space Twitter 📺️ Linux User Space TILVids 📱 Linux User Space Bluesky Kill all AI Firefox 148 introduces the AI kill switch OMG Ubuntu article Discord Age Verification Delayed Discord Age Verification Delayed AP News article BBC Article 🔭Next Time🔭 We plan to cover your feedback, and some interesting topics.
