I have this problem of random sudden reboots with my Lenovo X220 notebook running Linux. I believe it is due to its hardware/firmwares. And sure I use the notebook only as a thin terminal for a beefy rack server so in the end it does not matter much.
Who cares about data collection? Everyone can track what I do on Internet, why should I care? But I care how matching are the data the search provides to me - and for that the data collection is required. So user data collection is a plus.
Definitely not. DuckDuckGo does not track user's history/preferences/context and therefore it provides poor unrelated results compared to the user-customized search of Google. A personal assistant is always a premium-paid feature!
Memory is cheap, CPU is expensive. The problem of C is that it uses void *userdata everywhere as it has no templates. And unprefetched pointer reference is lethal for modern processors stalling for hundreds of cycles. As an illustration GCC was using horrific #defines to substitute missing templates and despite that after GCC got converted to C++ STL vectors got even faster.
XFCE still looks as a UNIX to me. I have 12 (24) fullscreen frameless black&white text consoles in XFCE with alt-f1..alt-f12 hotkeys and this is all I needed on my 386/4MB and all I need today.
Because Chrome is proprietary, you cannot change it to fit your needs. The question rather should be why to use Firefox over Chromium. There the reason is that Firefox has many useful settings in about:config while in Chromium you need to download extensions for that which are typically not packaged in your OS and therefore they are insecure (from some point of view) - even with the Chrome/Chromium security restrictions for the extensions.
I came to a company needing to run Linux kernel at arbitrary address. They chose remapping the kernel area by page tables (=memory mapping) and through a year they were fixing tons of exceptions across the kernel code as for device drivers one must use physical memory addresses and not virtual.
So I came, implemented Linux kernel relocatability instead and I was done with a perfectly/better working solution in 2 days.
I had to switch to a different search engine as I really do not have time for their CAPTCHA for each search. Moreover sometimes they even require multiple CAPTCHAs for one search. Google search was the best one but it is really not worth so much time of mine.
All the apps require all the rights. If I do not give them the permissions they won't run. So I have no choice, I have no security then and I cannot store any valuable data on the phone.
Why the apps are lying they need global files access to only store their own data? I have found in some Android SDK doc they can store their own data even without global files access.
Other apps could provide functionality without that specific feature but they refuse to run at all unless they get all the permissions they ask for.
Even opening local files could be done safely by an Android-provided dialog box, without giving uncontrolled permissions to the whole disk.

Falcon 9 payload to Mars is 4020kg.
Tesla Model S P100D is 2250kg.
Roadster 2020 will be a bit heavier but not twice as much. Falcon 9 has enough power to send the Roadster to Mars, Musk could choose some better demonstration of Falcon Heavy, such as sending a fleet of 5 Teslas.

There are text Google advertisements. I doubt any ad blocker filters them (at least my own ad blocker does not).
Definitely not. DuckDuckGo does not track user's history/preferences/context and therefore it provides poor unrelated results compared to the user-customized search of Google. A personal assistant is always a premium-paid feature!
It looks with a massive deployment of nuclear power we will run out of the uranium fuel in 5 years.
That blob has been fixed both upstream and in Fedora chromium since 2016-09-07: enable_hotwording=false
Why does Slashdot always compare Firefox with proprietary Chrome when all the mentioned features does provide already Free Chromium?

While I agree in general still how is MacOS more UNIXy than Linux?
Where are the sources and best also already a port as a native Linux client?
Here are the sources for a rebuild with single rpmbuild command, sometimes I was patching them:
You do not need to upstream a change to use the change, you can keep it forked locally.
No, automatic nightly system update does that (DNF in Fedora for me).

Firefox performance sucks, what do you have against Chromium?

I am missing Fedora without systemd.

Not me, Bolt has no 4WD variant. Besides that it is really ugly.

You cannot use high power even of a cold ICE. Although ICE warms to its full power capability some minutes earlier than an EV I guess.
