By now you've all probably heard about the latest shenanigans from Google and their love for in-browser AI features (if you don't, this is the story: https://www.theverge.com/tech/924933/google-chrome-4gb-gemini-nano-ai-features).
Our team has been inspecting the Chromium code and disabling stuff from the very first version of Vivaldi (we have some posts about this in our blog, such as https://vivaldi.com/blog/news/alert-no-google-topics-in-vivaldi/ or https://vivaldi.com/blog/no-google-vivaldi-users-will-not-get-floced/).

#AutomotiveTechnology #boats #politicstoday
I'm hoping the weather will be nice on Saturday, May 16th.
If it is I'm going to pick up my new mountain bike from the bike shop where they've been holding it for me, hop onto a nearby gravel trail and do an ~28KM ride, probably meeting up with a friend along the way.
Should be so much fun! Just need the weather to cooperate.
