It's worth messaging EU MPs or talking to them directly.

It's insane that jobs involving cancer research pay half of what a regular VC-funded web company pays.

> humans do this too

Here, look at this amazing pathfinding algorithm you should use. It takes you to the wrong place 30% of the time but humans do it too so that's ok.

What's the choice here? Start saying "Russia will attack" and then see 20% of your population flee, while Putin sits and waits until your economy runs into the ground, and THEN attacks? There's no good choices here.

> Not sure if it’s possible to treat enemies better than that.

If you can't imagine how, that says a lot about you.

You could have lived 200 years. But instead, people decided they'd rather invest in crypto or LLMs instead.

Maybe humans will still be here in a century. But you won't be. It didn't have to be this way.

Reskin isn't quite right. Vivaldi offers a ton of amazing features that Chrome would never dream of having. For example, tab tiling is excellent and criminally underused.

I literally can't function on the web without Vivaldi, for me it's the only usable desktop browser. What problems have you encountered?

> fundamentally inferior to Linux

The UX/UI of Windows 98 is far, far ahead of whatever Linux DWM we have today. It's nowhere near close. My KDE is usable but everything feels off, from icon shapes and sizes to mouse cursor icons, mouse cursor speed, the way settings are organised, almost everything. And it's not a matter of habit, as I've been on KDE for years, and I kept trying to make it work. Windows just clicks out of the box, it's more comfortable.

Microsoft, once upon a time, put an enormous amount of money into creating a user experience that makes sense for a maximum amount of people. Even though this experience suffered enormously over the last decade, it's still better than everything else, including OSX. And I'm not praising Microsoft, everyone else (including Canonical) is just that bad.

> How many hours has Zoom put into making the client stable on Windows and Mac?

Users don't really care, do they?
