Yes, this is the state of the open soros software. Don't use firefox.

>>996390

is chromium better?

>>996399

Somewhat. At least I can use scroll wheel to switch tabs, something Firefox removed for some reason

>>996409

>Firefox removed for some reason

For your own convenience and security of course. Nobody used that feature anyway goy.

>>996409

They removed bloat.

Did you just come out of the cuck cave? It crashed long ago. Anyone who use it are the nintendo soyboy zog drones. Same goes for you ungoogled chromium fuckers

>stem suffers from lack of humanities

It's an specialization, so yes it lacks other shit. If you take a painting class they don't teach you about carpentry either. But whatever, they can add a poetry class so long as people in humanities pass calculus. That'd be good for them actually since the braindead retards would drop out.

>>996480

>She's right, culture is a precursor to good code.

That's not at all what she's saying.

>>If we have STEM education without the humanities we are intentionally building the next generation of technologists who have not even the framework or the education or vocabulary to think about the relationship of STEM to society or humans or life

>Also right, code is a tool for humans to use so it should meet human needs.

That's just blatant oversimplification. If I develop a code for drone that kills goatfuckers I met your criteria of code being a tool for humans to use. It also perfectly meets human needs part of your statement. But is it right to build code that kills goatfuckers? That is what humanifags are trying to hammer into your mind. Too bad they have their heads so far up in their asses they don't even see the technology that enables them to live their daily lives and only start complaining when muh morals get challenged. How about they do their fucking job themselves and stop pushing it on us who work in those fields?

Did you know?:

You can choose courses that are not about womens rights? Classes like most history classes, psychology, you know that kind of thing.

even if you americans do actually have toxic hivemind campuses, go to a better college instead!

The amount of people spoofing their user agents probably accounts for less than 1%.

what does that mean?

>>996390

>Yes, this is the state of the open soros software. Don't use firefox.

TorBrowser is based on firefox, so we don't have choice but to use firefox

people that use any other browser are brain damaged

>>996399

>is chromium better?

chromium is jewish botnet that sends all your history and keystrokes to israel and pentagon

>>996467

if you weren't idiot and used TorBrowser instead of firefox nothing of that would happen

>>996544

REMEMBER TO NOT USE ANY CHROME DERIVATIVE

ungoogled chrome doesn't exist, all project like that are google honeypots, they only pretend to be ungoogled

>>996580

>not using TorBrowser

/cattle/

https://torproject.org

After firefox ESR jumped over to quantum, it's not that bad.

>>996588

You can use tor by itself, luser.

>>996399

FWIW, the OpenBSD guys found Chromium much easier to properly pledge/unveil, because it was built with privilege separation from the beginning. And they've got it in the arm64 ports (but not Firefox because problems bootstrapping Rust toolchain IIRC), so you can run it on a non-botnet hardware like ARM Cortex-A53.

>>996710

I mean they have an arm64 package, which means the port actually builds fine (and you don't have to do it yourself).

>>996588

>ungoogled chrome doesn't exist, all project like that are google honeypots, they only pretend to be ungoogled

Nice evidence you've got there. You've thoroughly convinced my with those hot opinions.

>>996699

>You can use tor by itself, luser.

no you cannot. tor isn't a web browser.

you can use other web browsers with Tor but it's very stupid, because you will be the only person in the world that uses this browser with Tor and you will be fingerprinted to death

>>996710

>And they've got it in the arm64 ports (but not Firefox because problems bootstrapping Rust toolchain IIRC), so you can run it on a non-botnet hardware like ARM Cortex-A53.

what's the point of running botnet browser on non-botnet hardware?

and btw. ARM is a botnet.

google = israel

we will holocaust you, google. the oven will soon become ready

>>996560

retard, every accreditied college/university requires you to pass those classes to get your credential paper.

english lit = stories about oppressed women and niggers.

american history = whitey was mean to niggers and injuns.

world history = german whiteys were mean to jews

ancient history = greece and rome were successful because they were femenists

fine art = period blood on a canvas.

film study = top 5 films with most diverse cast (most niggers)

this is ALL COLLEGES, they will lose their accreditation if they rock the boat.

The US schooling system is just an indoctrination program designed and led by kikes.

Even homeschooling your kids, I bet you need to meet certain kosher standards or else CPS steals your kids

>>996926

>greece and rome were successful because they were feminists

Try to find a mention of women ever in ancient history. It's as if they didn't exist. I took a philosophy class when I had an elective. Of course they have the mandatory section on women, and they make sure to throw in a few female philosophers to keep things diverse. But the ancients are still aristotle, socrates, etc, and they won't be female any time soon. What they are doing is deemphasizing that part of philosophy, and no doubt that part of history as well.

>Even homeschooling your kids, I bet you need to meet certain kosher standards or else CPS steals your kids

They don't test your kids if you home school them. They really don't give a fuck. The problem is most parents need to work, and the only free daycare on offer is public schooling.

>>996881

Browser fingerprints have no meaning when you have zero idea who that person is or where that person is.

>>996933

>Try to find a mention of women ever in ancient history. It's as if they didn't exist

who is hypatia

>>996942

agreed. criminals dont get caught because the fbi are leet hackers, criminals get caught because they get social engineered

>>996942

1) unique and stable browser fingerprint creates pseudonymity rather than anonymity, which can seriously amplify OPSEC mistakes by correlating them to the same identity. If you make 5 small errors, they might only become harmful if they can be related to each other

2) honest browser fingerprint can indicate software version used, useful for browser exploits

However yes, if you have very good OPSEC you dont lol and/or aren't an important target, then it's not a big deal.

>>996942

>when you have zero idea who that person is

big assumption lad. you'd better be blocking some javascript.

>>996958

You're absolutely stupid if you're relying on Tor for privacy and yet you allow non-free Javascript programs to run at the same time. If you ever rely on Tor for privacy, then you have to audit the Javascript programs that you use - if you don't you may as well be using Windows, Steam, Netflix, Facebook and Skype at the same time because your privacy means jack shit to you.

>>996881

Are you dumb enough to think that the Tor project audits the whole Firefox codebase? Using Firefox is not difference from using Chromium: it's free software but still spyware.

>>996533

Nice shitpost lol

Ctrl + F = icecat not found.

Nice

>>996562

>>996563

That's not the problem.

The problem is that it's the wrong table

Usage share of desktop browsers

Browser NetMarketShare, W3Counter, StatCounter

Chrome 66.43% 61.7% 69.64%

IE 9.48% 4.3% 6.01%

Firefox 9.25% 6.5% 10.14%

Edge 4.28% 2.3% 4.21%

Safari 3.74% 13.1% 5.61%

Opera 1.55% 2.8% 2.3%

Others 5.27% 9.3% 2.08%

It seem that there are as many Edge/Safari users as there are Firefox users left.

Well done Mozilla trannies. You just killed a browser.

>>997273

Does browser market share matter?))

>>997282

Wasn't Firefox somewhat around 30% back in the day?

>>997289

But there were less internet users 'back in the day' than there are today. 9.25% in 2018 could still be more users than 30% in 2008(?)

Since you picked the NetMarketShare number

Mid 2016 Firefox still had entire 14.8%. That's -5.55% in under 1.5 years. They just suck. Accept it.

No wonder they're giving money to antifa.

>>996942

>Browser fingerprints have no meaning when you have zero idea who that person is or where that person is.

Technically correct, but wrong in practice.

If you aren't fingerprinted a breach on anonymity in one occasion does not retroactively destroy your anonymity, if you are fingerprinted you're fucked.

>>997273

They didn't tho.

Firefox was already fading, the SJ stuff was just a last ditch effort to deflect blame and anger away from Mozilla.

Their latest update was less than a week ago.

It's been taken over by the sjw tranny brigade. Form over substance, every new feature is a wasted bit of code.

We've entered the beginning of its end, anons.

>>996881

I did't say ARM in general, I specified one processor. ARM Cortex-A7 and A53 don't do speculative execution. Most of the others do. And all the 64-bit x86 stuff does, but that platform has tons of other problems as well, like botnet firmware and shitty negative cpu rings since the 80386SLC chips, plus architectural cruft with lots of wiggle room for exploitation (see the memory sinkhole bug for just one example).
