Ah yeah. You’re right.

I didn’t say people shouldn’t install Linux. But even if you do, browser share matters and if Microsoft is abusing their customers and tricking them into using edge in mass, then it will affect you as a Linux user too.

Microsoft can modify chromium. They can add proprietary things to it. Yes you could use edge if you have to critical pages that only works right on edge.

Windows is telling people their computer is broken if they don’t use Edge.

Switching to Linux won’t save you if Microsoft Edge takes such a huge market share that a lot of the internet starts to basically require it.

This article is complete trash who’s upvoting this garbage?

Is anyone up for starting a non religious Amish society?

This isn’t even a slippery slope towards that though. This is all about consumer choice, privacy, and stopping a few companies from skimming 30% of the top of all digital sales.

PHP has been “not bad” for a decade. The problem is that it isn’t good and I can’t think of a reason to choose it for a new project when there are so many better, established languages.

Does every religion call it “heaven”?

This feels so much like a cyberpunk story. It’s so dehumanizing and has such disregard for humanity that it feels like a perfect match for the genre.

I’m really starting to understand how old people get to a point where they no longer want to keep with the times. This is gross.

Unfortunately, the west’s political systems disincentivize projects that take longer than an election cycle. Everyone needs short term wins to secure re-election and it has stopped us from doing most things that inherently take a long time to show results.

Or all billionaires are scum who have written the laws and ensured that the fine for this is no more than an annoyance and removing the sign without a permit was a worthwhile risk and the right call to make.

Absolutely correct. My point though is that saying “men don’t get to have an opinion” is a silly, and unproductive argument in favor of what should he abortion rights. Representative democracy wouldn’t function at all if no one was allowed to have an opinion on things that they don’t do directly and not let those opinions influence how they vote. That’s a silly argument.

I’m pointing out that in a democracy, people really do make laws for things that they don’t do. It couldn’t work any other way.

That’s how democracy works. Every man has just as much power over whether or not abortion should be legal as every woman has power over whether or not men have to register for the draft.

I honestly don’t get this stance. If you believe abortion is killing a human, then you treat it like murder. If you believe it isn’t killing a human, because it really isn’t, then it’s just an inconsequential medical procedure that no one should care about.
