    I just knew this was going to be bad based on the title of the article alone... No need to change the current logo and even worse to consider something so close to the Gitlab logo. Mozilla should be embarrassed.

    CPU throttling appears to be a common problem with these new powerful CPUs and the thin, light chassis that most manufacturers believe we want. So while this doesn't affect just Apple, I think Apple needs specific calling out since the
