Surprisingly this feels like it has been in existence for longer than 29 years.

As much as people are making this out to be a Google thing, I think this is more about the security requirements many countries are imposing.

I think we are already past that point. With Apple Macbook, Google Chromebook and Microsoft Surface, we pretty much have all consumer computer echo system become ARM based. Thanks to AMDs resurgence the server space is still heavily x86 based.

That's pretty much the comparison between Tesla and old-time car manufacturers. Most people who are trading Tesla stock don't even look at other car stocks.

Yes. And that is why some places like food trucks charge 3% transaction fees instead of 1 or 2%

I don't think it is that giant. It is basically the downtown of a small town.

Would the battery and by that virtue these cars at least have a longer life?

I sometimes do find different prices for same products with amazon pushing me to buy product with prime shipping.

If you use an extension like Honey, it will warn you that a product is available for lower price without Prime.

I like Reddit but I don’t think I will miss it. Good riddance.

In the recent AMA, they claimed that the average cost per user would be around $1/month. Apollo dev believes it will be much more than.

I feel Reddit could have easily come up with a model where the API usage gets tied to premium account and that decouples apps from API charges.

Reddit has now created a new problem for itself which is that a huge user base that previously didn't bother to look at third-party apps has suddenly become aware of third-party apps. So now, they will start bypassing Reddit's official apps that generate revenue for Reddit in favor of third-party apps that seemingly have a better UX and are ad-free.

If anything, the mods are getting a break from their stressful lives as Reddit mods.

This! I tried using third-party apps and for some reason didn't like them. The official app is clunky but it is not like we haven't seen similar experiences with Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.

I mean look at Twitter, since going private, the whole thing has been so clunky, but the parameters governing how well Twitter is doing are still hinging policies related free speech, user-abuse and content moderation.

Can't it be enabled via an extension? Similar to how media players support third party codec.
