My snap folder only has chromium in it. Like probably most users who don't (and shouldn't) care about snaps. The snap drama is a ideological purity contest by people who should kno…

As i said, ianal and it's my own personal opinion. Others here have better expressed my views on the subject. Disruption is not always a good thing. Especially when it has large so…

No. I can't publish stuff on their website. They "sell" me the use of the "pipes", not what i do with it.

You're a publisher as soon as you put an infrastructure for users to put stuff on the net. Curating or not doesn't matter. Disclosure: personal opinion, ianal.

Also, everyone knows that hexagons are the real bestagons.

No one wants 255556 notifications/news per day.

Firefox has demons of its own on this subject. Evangelism for it which basically is "it's not google" is getting more and more tired.

This is correct. I was in a hurry and didn't explain at length as i should have.

Doping in descents is mostly removing fear/calmly handling high risks situations. Doping with EPO and the likes won't help.

Look into bikes with 650b wheels for this.

Normal line workers mostly take a plane for vacation or family reasons. Specialized workers, i'll give you that, but it's way less than you imply.

Virtue signaling.

It's not. In fact, this initiative is laughed at by most people here (in QC) as it is mostly exactly the same thing that "La toile du Québec" was 20 years ago. The government (and …

Also, the guy clearly makes the sentences in his head in English and then translate them. Everybody does it. It's just blatant. Fluency makes it go away. Source: Am a quebecer (fr)…

As I don't speak russian, I can't answer you.

DDG is bad as soon as you're not in the US of A and/or speak any language that is not english.

DDG is useful if you're american. I'm canadian and the results are mostly crap.

The real answer is: have old money or kbow people who havenit and want to lend it / give it to you. The rest is survivor bias that doesn't take into account all that it should.

As i stated above, it might be an anecdata or a cultural bias as I live in Montreal. While i do believe that's interesting, I don't understand why that would be Mozilla's job.

I live in Montreal and don't know anyone who bought one or speak to their phone. Might be a cultural bias or just an anecdata as stated above.

I don't see why Mozilla would do this kind of things except to spread ressources. I know that it is an anecdote, but I don't know anyone who uses any kind of speech to text in part…

Ah, the usual exceptionalism of commenters on HN. All leaders in their field of work apparently.. Being more serious for a minute, can you explain why you think like that? With dat…

One is "legal", but has to be put into pills in labs. The other is illegal, but you can grow it yourself at home. Guess which is which and why. Most pharmaceutical companies should…

They kill many extensions, but make Pocket unremovable. That's beyond stupid. If I care about speed, I use Chrome. If I want custombility, I used to pick Firefox. Right now, it's b…
