I would say the bloated code base contributes to the clunkyness of Firefox.
It means it is full of security holes. It is also why it is difficult to
produce proper Firefox forks as opposed to mere spins. Look at the trouble
the PaleMoon developers had.
Certainly it is by no means accurate to
I disagree on waiting and see. I do not think you will reach the seeked fund.
If someone considering buying a computer card reads the crowd funding
website, they will notice that funding is lower than 50%. I think that will

Ubuntu-based distributions always have minute problems no one knows how to

Isn't the script just the script from Linux-libre? Or do Ubuntu add certain
things that are not upstream, like backported drivers, which need to be
accounted for?

It's not flexible funding. Contributi
Bad Firefox :-(
Use Lynx! :-)
But on a more serious note, this was warned of many months ago by security
researchers. Unfortunately people don't understand just how prevalent online
tracking is and how sophisticated it has become. I think even the people who
make up the standard probably are

Maybe he will come up with something that people get their computer cards
anyway. They do not know. If he renegotiates like I wrote, people will know
they will get their computer cards if 250 computer cards are sold? He

...And they won't pay a cent. There is zero risk for backers.
If this is unclear, it should be clarified, but suggesting "renegotiating"
would happen if the campaign fails would make potential backers more nervous,

Maybe you are right. If I had ordered a computer card, I would look at the
funding. Knowing that funding is below 50% and likely there will be no full
funding, I would prefer if the laptops got out of the crowd funding lowering
the funding goal to 250 computer cards and a total
That's not how it works. If the crowdfunding campaign fails, nothing happens.
No money gets exchanged, the project doesn't move forward, and Luke will have
to launch an entirely new campaign (assuming he can; otherwise he'll have to
spend some time coming up with a new game plan, possibly yea
Donated!
"Isn't the script just the script from Linux-libre?"
No. The Linux-libre script only works with the vanilla kernel from
kernel.org. Canonical's kernel is heavily modified. Go grab the Linux-libre
deblob scripts, the ubuntu kernel source, and run the de-blob script. It dies
immediately, sayi
Hello all,
Where can I find an ISO file with fresh beta to download it?
Thanks a lot.
There isn't one yet. It is way too early. In this development update Rubén
just made the kernel that allows for the build jails to get made so that the
software can start getting compiled. An ISO won't exist until much later...
Thanks for updates! donated.
Do you use the word fraud in its legal frame? Tell how you define fraud?
You repeat that if funding goal is not meet nobody pays. I got that. I want
to set a new funding goal which is likely going to be meet. If crowd supply
rules say, you cannot change parameters during the crowd funding, the
At least Firefox seems to round to the nearest tenth. Still, I would disable
this API.
Some places, like Indiegogo, support what they fall "flexible funding
campaigns" which don't have this "all or nothing" rule.
yep at around 640x480 it's about 10fps, if i expand the window to 1200 x 720
(appx) it's down to about 5fps - that's with sdl.

it is you just have to have a *really* good reason. most campaign's
simply can't justify doing this... but we can. the thing is: we can... but
we still shouldn't, as it gives the wrong impression.

Agreed its not over until all time has run out.
It will succeed I feel it.
Possibly true but there are a few things missing, such as qemu launcher and

with some very rough numbers in, it's just about doable, right now, based on
$10k NREs, there's about $6k spare.
Frankly, Web browsers are too powerful. It's gotten to the point where they
can basically function (and, in some cases, do function) like entire
operating systems. Total madness.
Question: does this have any relevance if JavaScript is disabled?
SuperTramps addon works well meaning its quite easy to use

You couldn't disable JS on Firefox OS.
Otherwise it wouldn't work at all!
So probably no. Otherwise they are just a glorified PDF reader.
I was talking about the battery status option, not Firefox OS... I wanted to
know if JavaScript is needed to access this information.
Is this not already disabled in Icecat? I "duckduckgoed" it (duckduckwent?)
and found this:
"Changes since v31.8.0-gnu2"
"- Disabled battery handling in dom"

I'm back on Belenos and have trouble installing Ring; some dependencies not
available or are wrong versions. If you're using ring on Trisquel 7, perhaps
you can help?
