Chrome attacking the privacy and the choice of its users has been happening for years now. And Firefox keeps dying.

I've been using LTSC/LTSB for years. What's wrong with it?

If I had billions in the bank and you gave detailed instructions on how to pick up the breadcrumbs I leave on the table of a restaurant, I wouldn't give a shit. But if they care so much they are welcome to break into my house and take

It does not have Win32 or DirectX, for starters

That one hasn't gone offline in years, so I've never thought of this. Perhaps you are right, but I assume that it should be easy enough to find new ones if you need them. I wouldn't consider this approach to be "high mai

Then pirate it. What do you care? This is like pirating a show they refuse to put on Netflix. They don't give you the option to conveniently buy what you want, so pirate it. Instructions on how to activate your installation of LTSC her

Good. I hate lazy loading. I hope they add an option in the browser so I can disable it globally.

>Today, the software _is_ there (well, mostly) and we can all take advantage of more cores. Disagree. Not even "mostly". If I had a dime every time I saw some software stuck at 100% of one core... well, I'd have a few dime
