Why do you even need a hiring bot for McDonalds? Maybe for managers but a McJob is a McJob.

Firefox still hasn't fixed Bug 1938998 despite me reporting it multiple times. There's a reason why Firefox is almost non existent on mobile. I've been using the internet for 26 years, and have used Mozilla based browsers since 2001, I want them to survive to the next era of the internet, but they are struggling to keep up. Opera and Edge already gave up their engines, Webkit and Blink are basically the same engine with different standards enabled, and Firefox is under 2% on some days on Statcounter. I feel that soon AI based browsers using their own AI-engine will probably take over the internet soon anyway.

Yet Apple somehow got away with removing 32-bit apps and changing architectures multiple times.

I came across an autism documentary from the 1970s and it was only covering the classic autism symptoms back then (non verbal/learning difficulties), and they only thought 3000 autistic people existed in a population of 50 million. So much research has been done since then.

One thing that was different in the 90s was that even though games were expensive to buy outright rental shops were common. I played loads of N64, SNES and Mega Drive games for paying £2.99 for the weekend. Plus games were more stand alone as well so you got more for your money.

Even on big websites like Wikipedia there are only a few hundred major editors that write most of the content and they all know each other. On Youtube you tend to get to know everyone in your filter bubble as well.

Can't robots make toys for us in 2025? We shouldn't need to use humans at slavery level wages.

All the forks need to make a common engine independent of Mozilla. Pale Moon did it with Goanna and it is shared between Basilisk and K-Meleon as well. The big problem is that any new engine has to beat being filtered by Cloudflare or other WAFs that discriminate by user agent. A bold idea is for all the Firefox forks to rebase off of the new Ladybird engine and abandon the old Gecko codebase entirely.

It is obvious that Cloudflare is being influenced to enforce browser monopolies. Imagine if Cloudflare existed in 2003 and stopped non Internet Explorer browsers. If you use cloudflare to "protect" your site you are discriminating against browser choice and are as bad as Microsoft in 1998.

A lot of isps are rolling out gigabit and even faster internet. Finally having a killer app for it will increase demand for it and shame slower isps to upgrade their old coaxial and copper cables with fiber.

Just remember we got rid of TLS 1.0 the same thing can be done with IPv4. It's time for browser makers to put "deprecated technology" warnings on ipv4 sites.
