  Sorry, my mistake i kind of misunderstood … but now I wonder which part of the “company” was most easy to replace and where the most and least failure rate/processing was located/necessary.

  just fyi, when Mv3 will completely replace Mv2 … uBO might not be able to perform as well on chrome based browsers.

  Enterprise software dies very very slowly … so i’d expect java to stick around for a long long time.

  The penguin is patient and will welcome you when you have the fish / time.

  If you are unsure i’d personally would also advice you to start with a dual-boot setup, so you can always temporary switch back if you get frustrated with something (or are under pressure from outside forces to get something done) and dont know how yet.

  Normally when you return later with a clear head you’ll likely be able find a solution to your problem that doesnt require you to switch the OS.

  Just a suggestion.

  Have a nice day anyways!

  It should not be … but it seems to be tolerated/ignored by most people … so it continues.

  At the moment WEI has been rejected by mozilla, so it wont be implemented into firefox. if google decides to add it into chrome and to their services, they will effectively lock out all firefox users. - A very anachistic part of me actually would like to see how that would play out … but at the moment i am unsure if google would actually dare doing this, but i guess, it will only be a matter of time and we’ll find out.

  Not sure if this move would actually damage the open web … since basically google would single itself out as the enemy … and i dont see many users appreciating such a move.

  But if the worst happens and the whole web follows googles example, i guess we can just call this iteration of a “open web” a failure and start over with something much simpler … maybe something like the gemini protocol as its base, which isnt polluted with clientside javascript garbage and bloated CSS/XHTML parsers and rendering engines .

  Curiously, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell, was: ‘Oh no, not again.’ Many have speculated that if we knew exactly why the bowl of petunias had thought that, we should know a lot more about the nature of the universe than we do now.
