Why justify it, when it's public money? It's free!

I'd like to see a comparison of what you can get with $3000 in Tuvalu vs. what you can get with $30000 in Mississippi.

Both take more or less the same time to show a page, they just pushed it from the backend (old reddit) to the frontend (new reddit), but I'd say it is equally slow. I'll stick to old reddit so they pay the bill (literally) for the

Why does everything need to be archived? Why can't the stupid things I said 20 years ago in a forum just vanish someday? (I never posted there but you get my point)

Even to bugs that have already been fixed?

Yes, they share the room with the Facebook executives who worry about the HN users who will quit the social network.

>Maxigesic. Tylenol and ibuprofen in one pill. What's the point of this, compared to just having half a pill of tylenol and half a pill of ibuprofen?

The thread is full of "Duolingo sucks, just use XXX instead", for a wide array of XXX alternatives. Now to pick a good XXX...

I don't think they can be compared. Brave profiles (well, Chrome profiles) are basically different browsers. They share nothing. They can have different settings, they can run a different set of addons, etc.

Same. For me it combines the best of Chrome (speed) with the best of Firefox (privacy). In fact I'd argue it's like having "privacy.resistfingerprinting" on, but without as many sites breaking.

What's wrong with Anthony Noto? Honest question as I am not American and I don't know him at all. His article on Wikipedia doesn't seem to show any controversies.

I don't blame them. I signed up in 2009 and I deleted my account a few years ago because, well... Twitter now is not what I signed up for. But I guess they have to move on. Things change, but that does not mean I have to like the chang

That is opt-in. Edge hasn't been released yet. Vivaldi UI is a buggy and slow mess (I invite you to try it yourself)

I use it because I've written many filters for my favourite websites. Also you can use lists which can block even more things. In my case I've blocked all social network bullshit, including icons, share buttons, widgets, etc

ITT: AMD apologists. Sorry guys but Intel is still king of single core performance. But that's not a problem because I'm sure by 2050 most desktop applications and games will correctly make use of many cores, then AMD will reign

They don't, because if they did, they would vote for candidates which want to do that, but they don't.

They expect to make €850 million in exchange for tariffs from the US which will hurt the already battered primary and secondary sectors. A flawless plan.
