Chrome by itself would likely cost 100 billion dollars to sell, and then more to maintain, without any clear revenue except selling user data. Chrome is not a profitable product on its own. Not many companies can afford that.

Yes, but you won’t like to hear it…

Having used both, Windows Vista was much worse than windows 8.

I didn’t say MS would make it successful. They would definitely buy it, add Minecraft to it, integrate teams, then forget they bought it, neglect it, and leave it more broken than when they found it.

That is the only likely future ahead. BS is growing so fast that there’s no way they can sustain this growth even if they add ads. The only path forward is selling out. I think Microsoft might be interested in finally owning a popular social media site.

No, Ubuntu is coffee pods.

Youtube hooks me with really interesting shorts and within a couple shorts it always derails to the worst brain melting garbage. I really don’t get it.

It should be mandatory that all electronics be recycled by the manufacturer or seller, and the cost of recycled should be reflected on the product price.

And this applies to salt as well to a lesser extent.

You got it wrong actually. Firefox is not really actively using all the ram. It’s more like reserving it. The system does that too. When the actual used RAM gets low, Firefox releases some of this unused RAM.

Yeah. Firefox will gladly make itself comfy in my 32Gb… It’s annoying because just because 80% of RAM is “used” doesn’t mean it is really.

Not upgrading is not an option if you don’t want your highly connecting device to remain secure.

That’s exactly what we’re complaning about. Major release cycle used to be much longer. Now they have this need to break things all the time. I hate the new bubble settings UI, and that everything keeps getting worse to use instead of better.

No, seems to be real.

Apartments with central water heating do exist, and it’s pretty cool.

You’re trying to make it sound like the only options are buying super glue from amazon, or never see your kids. You are trying to paint a dramatic picture of reality that isn’t true just to justify your lazy lifestyle. I never said I didn’t have to make choices, on the contrary. Every day I have to make choices.

There’s easy choices, hard choices and impossible choices. I don’t own a car, because I live in a place with good public transit and safe bike infra, so I wouldn’t stick it to someone who owns a car because they need it. I don’t keep a lawn, that’s stupid. Can’t remember last time I took a bath at home, no. It’s literally impossible to know the origin of most electronics you buy, but I rarely buy them and usually buy second hand. My electricity provider produces only renewable. I try to make better small choices along the way. I’m in no way perfect.

These are things that fit my lifestyle. Some are things you probably can’t do, and that’s fine. But not buying from the worst online shop in the world is one of the lowest hanging fruits. But sure, continue lying to yourself that personal change isn’t necessary. We’re not in a hurry.

“I am unwilling to do even the least of changes to my lifestyle to improve life on earth” is not the flex you think it is. It’s honestly sad.

You can get big fines if you don’t comply with sanctions though. And in the end Linux is an American foundation.

Linus was still an ass, though. All this drama is 100% his fault.

What do you mean Was? Ms. Cirus still uses it.
