Mozilla has a new CEO and he just announced that Firefox will evolve into a modern AI browser.

@anyaustin.bsky.social I know you're probably not a player of Sky: Children of the Light, but if you ever feel inclined to give it a try, it has some of the most picturesque out of bounds areas I've ever encountered in a game. There's a whole subculture around finding them.

Oh, one more Bluesky specific: I don't know how perfectly the automod is catching the video/stills, but go to Settings, Moderation, scroll down to Content Filters, and set "Graphic Media" to warn or hide if you had it on "show". (It's gotten quite a few for me.)

3. If you see content that disturbs you, immediately (or as fast as possible) go and play 20-30 minutes of Tetris (or any other fast-paced game with your eyes sweeping over the visual field that has caused visual artifacts to linger when you close your eyes for you in the past).

Have been tagged in to provide the reminder about traumatic video because of the Charlie Kirk shooting video going around!

1. Settings -> Content & Media, turn off "autoplay video"
2. Keep your device sound off while browsing so an accidental activation won't include the sound

This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free.

I appreciate the idea, but I can see the writing on the wall.

My books have LGBTQIA+ people in them. Depicted in a positive, accepted way. The bigots pressuring the payment processors will not accept that, and any site that caves to them won't host my work.

I've removed them from itch.
