  I’m using Firefox as my only browser. If everything works in Firefox that’s fine for me.

  That’s the best advantage of only making websites / web applications for fun (for friend groups, video games, family etc)

  So is the conclusion from that that LGBTQ people would rather vote for Trump? I don’t get why this would be a reason for them to not support the democrats

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are cars with AWD worth it compared to FWD.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  AWD often is the difference of if you have to put on chains to keep going upwards or not. Downwards you’ll need them anyway.

  Never had to use chains? Not getting any snow? It’s not very useful then.

  Good that they didn’t change their mind. If they had, you’d have been in trouble because your sources said otherwise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I had a time machine I'd rather go back to the beginning of my vacation and live in that loop⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  WW2 was bound to happen anyway. It wasn’t about a party, it was about everyone in Germany and Austria being extremely unhappy with the dictated treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain. It only was a matter of time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I had a time machine I'd rather go back to the beginning of my vacation and live in that loop⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  WW2 was already bound to happen after the treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain. Hitler also didn’t found the NSDAP or invent antisemitism. We of course don’t know what would have happened without him, but the near future after WW1 wouldn’t have been bright either.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨History is written by the victors⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In Austria and Germany at least we’re extremely critically viewing our history. It’s not “look at how good we are” but at “look at what we have to prevent from happening again” - and that’s for most topics, not only national socialism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Part of this complete breakfast!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ty. So the question for its rightful name simply depends on whether you give it to the one who discovered it or the one who isolated it, interesting.

  I’ll skip that discussion and just say Natrium sounds better

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Part of this complete breakfast!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s Na from Natrium (I have no idea why you even call it Sodium in English)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Measurements⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone who isnt from the… I think two or three? countries in this world that still use the imperial system standard is metric for me. So yes, if someone means the US customary system and isn’t in the USA they shouldn’t say standard or they’ll confuse people

  For the money you save by buying similarly good hardware that isn’t from apple you can pay someone to install an OS

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft has gone too far: including a Game Pass ad in the Settings app ushers in a whole new age of ridiculous over-advertising⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  MacOS has different flaws but has major flaws nonetheless. Linux is the one that truly lets you own your computer, you decide everything.

  The new Diogenes. Make it real.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨China is attempting to mirror the entire GitHub over to their own servers, users report⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The only issue I see is that they make a new Chinese equivalent for GitHub where they can censor code easier (or was GitHub already blocked?), but they already censor everything anyway so there’s probably effectively no change.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  About completely uncensored content: The fun part is that anyone who actually wants that can have that, I’m sure there are instances that federate with anything (or they could make their own “free” instance). And people who don’t want that (probably the majority but I have no data) can simply join moderated instances.

  Great article :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft insiders worry the company has become just 'IT for OpenAI'⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone who tried macOS and really didn’t like it I still have to say that you’re overreacting. It is worth using if you want everything to look good while never ever configuring anything yourself (many things can’t be changed), and if you want all your devices to work together without any setup (requires buying all devices from Apple).

  It can’t do anything that other OS can’t. But it does many things out of the box.
