Perhaps I’m missing something but I’ve been a Firefox user for years- at work and home. I have yet to find a website that misbehaves or under-performs. Mayyybe a few sites here and there a fractions of a second slower or have slightly less acceleration or something that I’m just not noticing?
Without Firefox and its ??forks?? like LibreWolf, the internet would be a total Chromium monopoly at this point, wouldn’t it? That would be bad…
I’ve been daily driving Firefox since 3 years ago, the only time it doesn’t load a site properly is when I lost internet connection mid-loading. Some people keep saying some sites don’t work with FF and yet none of them was able to give a single example.
I actually had to install ungoogled-chromium to change my email on PayPal. No other browser would work, it was weird. That’s the only instance I can remember where I’ve had to try Chrome. Otherwise I FireFox has worked fine. Wonder what happened there.
Some websites do poorly on it. However it’s rare and easy enough to just open it in a different browser. I’ve used Firefox for over 15 years and it’s not a serious issue. Usually bad government websites or shitty corporate webapps.
Pretty sure Safari runs on Gecko as well, but still, “Chromium monopoly” is such a ridiculous idea.
It’s like saying cars have a “V shaped engine monopoly” or clothes have a “YKK zipper monopoly.” Does it exist? Yeah. Does it affect the actual lineup of available products and their differences? Not really.
I’m a die-hard Firefox user (in part because I’m a web developer and prefer the dev tools). But I have seen a couple of sites that only work with Chromium-based browsers. Both are owned by Microsoft, though, so I assume they’re breaking things on purpose to push Edge or something. There’s no significant features Firefox is missing. (Safari is the problem child for web developers now. They tend to be last to support new CSS/JS features.)
I wish that we were better as a nation both about pricing college and about advertising the resources available to go to college at a discounted price. It’s no coincidence after all that we all know the Army’s an option.
It was the only reason I joined (reserves) too. Finished college and got a good paying job in one contract and never “re-upped.” It saved me from a life of factory work. I’m the only one of my workmates that doesn’t have college debt.
How long ago was this? How old are you now? 39 is the age cut off for some branches so there might still be a chance if you wanted to try out Guard/Reserves even just to get that one weekend a month experience
It’s present-perfect tense, an archaic tense found mostly in poetry and old texts. Oppenheimer was quoting old poetry when he spoke it, so that’s why he kept the same tense.
Too much oil the rice would soak it up like a sponge and it would just be greasy AF., But i imagine if you used a reasonable amount it would be pretty good.
I'm struggling with the question what exactly is hard to understand. Soldier's parents live in the constant fear that their child might one day just be killed in some conflict a d in order to cope, they use their patriotism
