e-greeting cards

Haven’t even thought about them in what seems like a quarter of a century.

Sure, but with China everyone more less knew this. The US has used up the last benefit of the doubt that they had in the past 5 months.

It makes sense for Chinese smartphone OEMs to move away from the Google version of Android. In the medium to long term you are setting up yourself for failure if you are reliant on an American company.

Unfortunately, the United States cannot be trusted.

It was require a different set of incentives, as wall as massive (global) reforms in judicial system, criminal approaches and rehabilitation policies for organized crime.

Seems fine.

Sounds about right for crypto scheme participants.

Vapid American techology industry insiders are incapable of making a truly good, user-focused product.

P.S. Let’s not forget that Rose’ last project was a NFT scam and some other blockchain bullshit. He clearly can’t think outside the box.

Spam about a once in a lifetime opportunity for generational wealth via an investment into PooPooCoin?

You can post to Mastodon and tag Lemmy community and the Mastodon post will appear as a Lemmy post.

There are significant limitations to this approach such lack of graceful support for thumbnails, markdown (doesn’t work on the Mastodon side) and URLs. I.e. it’s only good fat basic text posts (or image only posts).

Love the “programmer politics” concept.

Or better yet, it adds LEDs to your web browsing experience (in-page and inside PWAs) and the colours scheme is synchronized with your computer’s LED.

Also depends on which source we are discussing. Many YouTube channel owners do no not call themselves “influencers” and just focus on their domains and are very strict about sponserships (some don’t even accept sponsorships).

It downloads RAM for you, sells your browsing data to major gaming companies, helps you stay on top of your Twitch subs by disabling the ability to block web notifications.

You know, a gaming browser.

I agree with you, I may be even more cynical than you with respect to senior executives’ public statements and corporate PR.

I just don’t see a clear motive for the DDG CEO to inflate the valuation of Chrome. The examples you cite seem a bit far fetched (to me), I could be wrong of course.

That is a possibility.

However, I think in this particular case, the DDG CEO is better qualified than me or you to evaluate the value of Chrome. I can’t think of any reason for Weinberg to promote an inflated valuation for Chrome.

It’s not only about the brand, it’s about the installed base. You have hundreds of millions (billion plus?) of users who use your application every day for a wide variety of tasks.

Weinberg described his estimate as a “back-of-the-envelope” calculation, based on Chrome’s vast user base and global reach – a figure that far exceeds previous estimates, such as the $20 billion valuation offered by Bloomberg analyst Mandeep Singh last November. Weinberg added that such a price tag would be well beyond DuckDuckGo’s financial capabilities, remarking, “That’s out of DuckDuckGo’s price range.”

The UI/UX has always been absolutely atrocious.

Corruption, American style. Americans love their elaborate and borderline-tiring corruption schemes and PR propaganda.
