Usually code contributions by various LLMs are easily identifiable because the agent is the author for the git commit. Mozilla on the other hand seem to be explicitly encouraging unattributed LLM code in Firefox.

Stars and Stripes does really good journalism. Losing independent outlets is sad. Prez Kid Fondler strikes again!

The countries affected by the suspension announced on Wednesday are:

A lot of damage to his bottom line, I hope.

The nicest thing I saw today

Apparently, importing ~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc is enough for the shortcut to show up in the System Settings, but not enough to load the shortcut. Disabling, applying and re-enabling and applying again also doesn’t help, and neither does re-assigning to the same shortcut, which resulted in this lovely error dialog.
