They paved paradise, put up a parking lot.

It’s so good when stuff like this exposes the inhuman people.

To be fair, chromium aside, edge did start as a nice browser, but as with all MS products, they end up getting riddled with more and more bullshit over time.

Just use Firefox.

Even when they get a new user on Linux, they still then scrutinise their choice of distribution, if not that then their IDE. There’s no winning and it’s off-putting for people considering the jump.

It was tongue in cheek. But it does make sense a European chain would bring that over to the US.

A good option if it’s available to you, as long as it’s tough enough, would suck if it broke up in there.

Names a European store.

They sell like coin shaped discs you can put on your keyring, dunno if that’s a thing in the US though.

And the sewer is filled with literal shit, it doesn’t make a complaint over a pop-up ad on a paid tier any less valid. Get ya whataboutism out of here!

Emails, opt-in are fine yeah. I don’t mind the little Special offer button at the top either, it’s just the pop-up when I’m just trying to check my mails that is really intrusive.

Yeah if you don’t pay its fine, but if you have mail plus, they will have pop ups advertising premium. Once you get premium? They start advertising family!

You get premium ads if you are on a plus subscription or a free account. Once you get premium though, then they start advertising the family pack to you!

Enjoy pop-up ads trying to sell you a subscription when you just want to view your inbox! The one bad thing about their service.

Yup, technology and especially phones have come a disgustingly long way in such a short amount of time. Running AI efficiently on them is the next step, one that we probably won’t struggle with too much.

It’s not the size of the ship, it’s the motion of the ocean.

SteamOS is 42.99% of the Linux share on there, with the lion’s share increase of 0.68%. This ‘surge’ is pretty much just from the Steam Deck.

There’s also the ClearURLs add-on.

Why make your app fully functional across all systems when instead you can make some custom mute-mic icons to sell for $120/year?

I don’t remember all the settings I changed, it was years ago, but when I initially swapped from Chrome I found the text on Firefox was horrible. Here’s what I found though for text:
gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.enhanced_contrast = 100
gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.pixel_structure = 5
gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.rendering_mode = 5
gfx.font_rendering.fallback.always_use_cmaps = true

And for smooth scrolling:
general.smoothScroll.currentVelocityWeighting = 0
general.smoothScroll.lines.durationMaxMS = 250
general.smoothScroll.msdPhysics.enabled = true
general.smoothScroll.stopDecelerationWeighting = 0.82
mousewheel.min_line_scroll_amount = 23

These tweaks made it much nicer for me personally, of course text rendering may differ on OS (I use W10).

Firefox kinda sucks OOTB, these tweaks along with text render and smooth scrolling ones should be the default.
