Firefox is a complete disaster and waaaaaaaaaaaaay slower than Chrome when using multiple tabs.
I don't see how this comment make any sense. I've seen mentions about Firefox using less RAM and well.. Yeah, it wasn't ABLE to use more RAM. Not really a feature, still slow and disturbing as fuck. Edge isn't good for multiple tabs either.
Chrome or possibly Vivaldi (also based on Chrome.)
We don't have a functioning democracy any more because we don't have an informed public
We don't have access to information, freedom of speech, the EU rule us and we have a minority government.
Plus all the immigrants once they have received citizenship get to vote, of course, but we never wanted them.
Anyway, I agree in that access to information is important but so is freedom of speech and respect for what people vote for for a democracy to actually be functional. And there Sweden is worse of and completely isn't one. It's a democrature ran by the ruling establishment of the parties who like each other and the press and the EU.
Lack of freedom is shit though and since the democracy is unlikely to grant that to the extent the individual wants I think a democracy is shit, a representative parliament even when it actually is democratic even more so, I don't need to be represented by someone else thank you. I don't want to vote for the least worst option.
Continues writing a lot of stuff but never say WHY. Why would we want it to succeed? So it become less restrictive than now? Yay.. Good reason. So idiots can use Windows with no problem? How does that help me? Windows S is bad because a Windows store is bad because if Windows store become the de-facto or only way to buy stuff then competition dies in Windows and with that you can be sure prices will get worse.
.. one picture. "Alternative" media is painting another.
Just because it's factually correct doesn't make it correct really. Then again it's often complete lies too.
The lies is ~always about what have some political connection, close to always immigration here in Sweden but could also be budget and economy.
If one read both one would likely get close to the truth but the lying establishment want people to trust THEIR lies so the idea is that one shouldn't read the alternative opinion, numbers and opposition content at all.
Maybe be better in other places in Europe than what it is here in Sweden but here main-stream media is lying their ass off to preserve status quo. I wouldn't consider Sweden a democracy longer considering how media and government control and freedom of speech work here.
I know SAAB or some other Swedish company/organisation wanted to sell some software for simulation purposes for creating rockets and jets and such to China. There was some talk about that would be allowed, I don't know whatever the technology originally came from the US (if nothing else they supposedly helped develop JA37 Viggen) or if the problem was simply that it could be used to help develop military equipment in China.
I don't remember the purpose, who whom or who was going to sell it and I may have gotten something wrong. I tried to Google for it but with no success.
Anyway wouldn't surprise me if "we"/they had licensed/bought the right to use something and then thought it was worth selling it, or would rather take money now vs risk later (Swedish ABB (maker of high-current gear) for instance made cooperation with Chinese people who did the same thing.. Clever long-term?, I know GM wasn't really interested in letting SAAB Cars platforms being sold off to the Chinese either..)
Back in semi-modern age OS X had color calibration in an OS wide fashion I think. Or maybe not? Maybe they have been more attractive for DTP tasks at one time too. I don't know why but in more modern days I know some font-renders try to show what looks good on screens with subpixels whereas some try to show the font with the shape it's supposed to be and maybe that could influence some peoples decisions. Also once upon a time some software was exclusively for Apple. Apple have also bought companies/products which existed on both platforms and made them Apple exclusive, is Final Cut Pro such a product? Also back in the days of "AltiVec" Photoshop filters ran faster on macs. I also read some day that they tested the machines more than what was done with PCs so maybe less of a chance the machine was broken? Though.. How likely is that in the first place?
So back in the days exclusive software, maybe performance occasionally, possibly easier color calibration, possibly better font-rendering?
Nowadays for the computers I don't know. They used to look a bit slicker and maybe was more innovative but at the price premium they charged (compare vs a more plastic fatter Dell consumer machine), but nowadays with Apple almost abandoning the PC.. I mean computer for their gadgets.. well. Nothing of interest there I suppose.
So for PCs nowadays? Nothing. Unless you want a "UNIX" OS with Photoshop and games. Then again Steam has brought 2000+ games to Linux and Photoshop likely runs in WINE if you want it.. Sure there's a few more professional titles and I don't know whatever they run in WINE or not but.
As for the gadgets the on paper hardware specs may seem lower but judging by benchmarks they keep up well with the competition so I don't know if there really is a reason not to buy one either.. Just another competing product. Better? Worse? Different.
"Send Microsoft info about how I write to help us improve typing and writing in the future" specifically says "send information about how I write", not "send what I write" and while we could speculate on or argue the difference it's irrelevant because it appears next to a checkbox, so just turn it off.
Yeah. I have turned it off.
But then I also don't get an improving dictionary (maybe), Microsoft doesn't get information about issues with my setup (maybe), and so on.
Also what about these "species", are they different species for real or are they just different looking humanoid apes they have found over time?
They haven't tested whatever they can mate with each other?
Someone recently was like bla bla left Africa 70 000 years ago, "I'm black" so to say. SJW.
But are we just even the latest model and that came exclusively from Africa or is it just that we've evolved over time and when they have found something different they have made up a name for it even though it may not be a different species? And aren't we supposed to have some DNA from other humanoid "species" too as in cross-breeding even with those supposedly different "species"?
Not that this "Since my ancestors come from Africa 70 000 years ago everyone need to be welcomed here and be free to live of us" make any sense regardless.
The thing is just that all the other politicians in the western world is so terrible that he seem like the best choice.
Sure if we could have had Putin that would had been better. And maybe Hitler would had been better still. But Putin is good when the competition is Merkel, Löfven/Reinfeldt, whatever trash they have in France,..
Without this FUD starts about keyloggers and web tracking that may or may not be happening in reality.

Why can't Microsoft test the trillions of hardware configurations before releasing an OS update?
I'd totally be willing to let them collect SOME data to improve their product assuming they wouldn't pass it on-wards but when they want to log the keyboard and shit (and likely see visited urls, ran programs, get identification data,..) then no.

No need for anything additional. I got it all in on the subject.
Maybe it's just all the niqabs soaking up the light in Raqqa?

If there's 10 stores one may have a discounted price and they will have to compete against each other even on the same products.
If there's just one store then you'll simply have to accept the price that is there.

I never got the "up to 10 000 times faster" part either.
Can it become 10 000 times faster?
On what? Same processor architecture? Running the same algorithms?
Or they need to to be replaced by something faster which do it in some smarter way? Hopefully with as good results? Almost as good?

Awesome - I can replace my 2TB spinning drive with a Samsung SSD of the same size for 77 USD?
You can likely get 64 GB of 960 Pro space for $77.
Intel had HDD cache on SSD with previous motherboards and there's some software for doing it too though I don't know how well that one work.
It definitely could be done with SSDs if they wanted too.
However I think access-time is even lower on Optane than on the HDDs plus it will hold up to wear better.
It can also correct errors? Not just detect them?
There's no such thing as X-Windows.
The system is called X Window System, the last (large) version is 11, hence X11 or followed by R and the revision number.

Wayland is in alternative to X Window System (as in not X Window System)
