Of course people hypothesized continents have drifted, but that wasn’t widely accepted until a mechanism of how that could have happened was proposed. I don’t think xkcd was suggesting that nobody had the idea of continental drift before 1967, just that it wasn’t the consensus.

I don’t get you people. The founder of FUTO literally platforming a fascist is beyond just purity test level of bad.

I can call Eron out for being a supporter of fascists, while using FUTO keyboard because it doesn’t spy on me, that’s perfectly fine. I don’t get why using their keyboard means you have to defend the horrible position held by the people behind it. Sounds like cognitive dissonance.

Is that still you?

They were. They haven’t been using recaptchas to collect trainings day for years now.

I mean, if this helps fund Firefox and is not too intrusive then I am fine with it.

We don’t look at car features in isolation. e.g. seatbelt or airbag could cause injuries too in a crash, but we have them because it’s better than not having them.
