“We understand migrations of this magnitude can be challenging“

No, this specific migration should have never happened in the first place.

Manifest V3 is an absolute disaster that makes developers’ lives hard for no reason other than Google being desperate to crackdown on adblockers.

No additional security. No additional features. Nothing to make the pill sweeter. Just Google abusing its dominant position in the browser market to relentlessly push for years for a new standard that makes HTTP requests and intercepting requests at runtime ridiculously hard, so it can tame uBlock and friends. The whole declarativeNetRequest API that replaces the dear ol’ webRequest API is the equivalent of tying developers’ hands behind their back with the only purpose of increasing friction.

Manifest V3 is a technological abomination that greatly limits what extensions can do, and it should have never seen the light of the day.

My browser extensions will stubbornly remain Manifest V2 only. Even if that means being compatible only with Firefox. I wish that more developers did the same, so the Chromium-based extensions ecosystem may become as barren as it deserves to be, and more people would switch to alternative browsers, but of course nobody likes to say no to the browser that serves ~90% of the market. I just hope that the folks at Mozilla won’t get strange ideas and will keep supporting Manifest V2 forever.

The concept of “H2-readyness” has always been a con, that was hyped as an alternative against nuclear. Now we see some true limits.

The new gas combined cycle power plants proposed in Germany 🇩🇪 will only be able to operate by design with up to 50% hydrogen by volume, representing a reduction in GHG emissions of only 22%.

Nice overview of European countries that are eith pro or ant-nuclear, or somewhere in between. Italy reconsidering nuclear is a major shift and I think we'll see a colour change from Norway sooner rather than later 😉

Enable network.dns.preferIPv6 in #Firefox, especially if you use ECH, as it currently breaks IPv6 preference.

Nice tour of the new Flamanville-3 reactor. Although, from the outside, they could give it a more esthetically pleasing paint job.

"On this episode, John Stackhouse sits down with three nuclear leaders working to make SMRs a reality in Canada; Nicolle Butcher, COO at Ontario Power Generation; Bill Labbe, CEO at ARC Clean Technology Canada; and Heather Chalmers, CEO at GE Vernova.

"One thing is clear: nuclear power can be a key part of a lower-emissions future — and an increasingly promising option is to commercialize SMRs."

If you think spent nuclear fuel is a problem, you're either not well informed or you're actively being the problem.

Anytime you see an article about nuclear waste threatening “a possible Chernobyl-scale nuclear disaster”, you can immediately know it’s bullshit and move on with your day

Extremely irresponsible from Reuters

Yes, I'm a techno-optimist, but I'm of course well aware that technology doesn't play a neutral role within a class society. Question is how do we change the social relations, and not how much we should 'degrow'. Under socialism we'll use plenty of technology, powered by more energy. The idea that we wouldn't is frankly bizarre if you think more than two seconds about it.
