@Ferk On the other hand, Firefox runs just fine on the same machine. It makes me wonder if Firefox got several rounds of optimization after the code bases were split.
@yogthos Honestly, that’s probably a good idea. I tried firing it up recently for testing RSS feeds, and it was so clunky and slow. I know my box isn’t exactly cutting edge, but it’s happy enough running Gnome, which I figure is a good test of its ability to handle UI.

@dynge @ray This piece is weird. It’s like the author did whole lot of digging based on the assumption that the organization is supposed to be all about making Firefox, turns up a whole bunch of things that don’t fit that assumption, concludes that it’s wrong, then criticizes and asks questions from the perspective that it’s right and something doesn’t add up…
…but didn’t look around on Mozilla’s website?
@gzrrt @pineapple Yeah - ideally, any voice control processing or recordings should never leave the device it’s used on. At worst, the local network.
It’s so annoying that the tech for voice recognition became usable before mobile processing power caught up but after mobile bandwidth was enough to offload the processing to someone else’s computer.
