It was an unexpected insight for me recently; for native speaker should be much more obvious. But what a mysterious way my mind completed to tie these two, get the insight moment, and then understand that it should be so obvious it would be mentioned in major sources.

#^Endianness - Wikipedia

In computing, endianness is the order or sequence of bytes of a word of digital data in computer memory. Endianness is primarily expressed as big-endian (BE) or little-endian (LE). A big-endian system stores the most significant byte of a word at the smallest memory address and the least significant byte at the largest. A little-endian system, in...

Actually, things could be much easier.There is already to some extent neutralized Firefox: https://trisquel.info/en/browser. And it's possible, but not very probable that nobody will notice when they start to censor or favor some information over other. (Though they already distribute #propaganda through their channels.)

Would be nice to have more things like that. PureOS, for example, who fork it.

Though FSF and RMS are far from neutral and tech freedom focused. Network of watchers is needed.

In fact this is the signal that we have no free and neutral browser anymore. And, man, how costly it is to create a modern #browser!

So the first move as we see these happening should be to start (or support) a project for Ff neutralization. To watch the code, shadow development, and make it back neutral. I bet we'll get enough of anonymous support from Mozilla devs themselves.

Turns out GNU does this to far extent. I wouldn't say FSF itself is unbiased, but they are better then most.

The answer is simple! Every non-military and non-intelligence system that is used for public good: i.e. by government, should be open sourced and it's sources should be in country communication office with all customizations made to the system. And when it's not a system, but a service is employed, it's easy to enforce compliance procedures against which such services could be tested.

So that without special clearance you could test results on your data set and or verification inputs in public test environment and results received from production.

If you would carefully think, than you'll find that government have no reason to buy system or service that could not be transparently checked.

The cited article from "reclaimthenet.org" says:

'The tweet featured a link to an article by Mozilla Foundation’s chairwoman Mitchell Baker.'

The target of this link is an article by Joshua Klein on breitbart.com! So how can i take this article from "reclaimthenet.org" serious?

Hell, I forgot about Opera! They even had a mobile browser back in the days. So if they would like to open the sources (which shouldn't be complicated if they're above Chromium), then they can get a good deal of market share.

And they looks like only ones who can neutralize a FLOSS browser from restrictions. Though it would be better to clean Ff, since it's much harder to close its sources than to abandon Chromium and keep only Chrome.

I want to see Yandex switching to Gecko in the latter case.

I don't really know all the four mentioned names, but I thought about Mozilla recently. And had a message sent on 9th about my concerns on browser neutrality and Mozilla growing inclination from freedom to corporations. That's what disturbing. The link is exemplary.

🌐Дуров ответил на популярный вопрос о том, что будет, если #Telegram пропадет из AppStore и Google Play:

"Telegram не намерен подчиняться #цензурным ультиматумам #AppStore и #PlayStore. Если когда-нибудь Telegram будет удален с этих платформ, то команда Telegram работает над "браузерной" версией Telegram... для мобильных устройств! То есть Telegram можно будет использовать и без приложения, оптимизированного для телефонов. Таким образом, Telegram станет на 100% независимым от любого магазина".

About five years I'm talking how do I hate this trend of individual cock-pits inside cars, and freaking screens instead physical handles which were easily operated without looking at them.

Are there any movements that preserve older cars? I would love it to upgrade mechanics and electronics in 2010 cars so that it balance it's good design (including feel) and modern capabilities. It would be also good for #ecology.
