Oh, if only that were true.

But what about that one guy who writes absolutely brilliant VB?

Regime change coming up for the sake of “freedom”.

Can you quantify why you don’t like Mozilla?

I understand why someone might find Firefox itself subpar in some cases, but I’d like to hear what your issues with the organization are.

Well, ackshually, Linux is just a kernel… /s

You know what? A young Fassbender would have been a great Feyd-Rautha.

I mean, McAvoy was the God Emperor…

Oh, Canada!

As opposed to the Republican’s Final Solution?

And this is why the rich are trying so hard to get right wing governments elected worldwide.

They know they’re running out of runway, and the next few years could be their last chance.

I’m not saying the usual crop of centrist ditherers are great, but they’re better than fascists bought and paid for by tax dodging tech bros.

Does this represent a taxable benefit for Trump’s campaign?

Palantir loaf.

Ugh…

How did PCs beat out the Amiga, Mac and ST with nonsense like that?

I won’t say I didn’t have a bit of schadenfreude when Fort McMurray burned.

I agree, but to some degree, people own their government, and this government is, more than many, responsible for much of the causes of climate change.

I’d say the same thing if Florida sinks into the sea, or South Texas and Louisiana are swamped, or north Alberta catches fire.

Apropos of nothing, Saudi Arabia is the definition of a petro-state.

Chickens. Coming home. Roosting. Etc.

It’s hysterical to hear right-wing commentary about how New York Democrats are socialist Marxist communist hippies when the reality has much more goose-stepping to it.

There’s one notice, and it’s in the System Settings app. And it’s a little red dot beside the iCloud section. That’s not really the same league as what Microsoft is doing, or Even Google’s nag to use Chrome across all their Web properties.

You’re right about the first-party apps that you can’t remove, but it’s also not the same as, eg, Edge where those apps are used constantly and your preferences are reset on every update.

On my Mac I set my browser to Firefox in 2018. It’s never reverted to Safari, not once, where Windows really wants me to use Edge and goes so far as to not just reset it periodically, but also direct start menu searches and in-app web links to an ms-edge: url instead of using the http handler.

Apple has problems, but this isn’t one of them.

Microsoft would like to introduce you to EntraID.

That’s the enterprise version of this.

Apple doesn’t actually make it at all difficult to use a Mac or iOS device without an Apple account. You’re asked once during setup and that’s it. At most there’ll be a red dot in Settings>iCloud.
