Who tf uses chrome? Its basically google spyware at this point. Just use FF and a few security plugins
Who uses chrome? Still the majority of people lol. The number of people who care a lot about privacy enough to stop using chromium is a pretty small percentage.
So the uninformed, thats pretty typical.
Sure. Tbh I still use chromium, knowing that it may not be great in terms of privacy. I don’t really use Google Chrome, but I do use chromium browsers. Reason being, I just don’t give too much of a shit about my privacy. If it’ll be the ruin of me, so be it.
The issue with this line of thinking is that you just dont know how the information will be used against you. Maybe today you have nothing to hide, but that information is out there forever. Insurance carriers may refuse to fund your medical treatment because of some shit you said online, or a job may refuse to hire you. Or, if Im really putting on a tinfoil hat here, a radical government (or political faction in general) may use the information to target you. It may not even be accurate info, but the fact remains that info you leak online is stored and could be leveraged against you, your friends, or your family, at any point in the future.
Maybe itll never happen, but maybe it will. Its just better to try to keep your data private where you can. Apathy is definitely one way to live, but you should consider putting in even a little effort to just use a more secure browser. Its not really that hard lol
At this point? It’s always been that way as far as I can recall. :/
Everyone makes light of this but the sinister truth behind it is the internet in its’ current state is bogged down by all the surveillance built in to every stage of the browsing process.
That and Chrome is running a speed optimized independent virtual machine, mark and sweep garbage collector, and graphics framework for each tab. Then websites go nuts and implement an entire application in a shitty loosely typed language that can mutate objects and built-in libraries whenever they feel like.
Did I get 64 gigs of RAM to run high param count language models? Or to make high resolution image generations? No, I got 64 gigs of RAM because I need all of the chrome tabs open indefinitely
Apollo had hand woven memory: https://youtu.be/P12r8DKHsak
I have to close tabs that I don’t need. It is an obsession.
Normal human, unlick ppl with 300tabs, they scare me
Opera GX lets you set a limit on the amount of RAM and CPU, and gives you an easy way to see and to close the tabs that are using the most of each.
Firefox is better than Chromium.
To be fair, most of the work to get the first moon landing done was hand calculated by actual humans.
