The only thing that prevents some ergonomic keyboards from becoming mainstream is the price. Low price is the only great thing about standard keyboards.

Back in the day, Linux (and other FOSS projects) where for geeks only. You invested your free time on it because you liked it. People could be aggressive against you, you would leave and nobody gave a shit. Modern FOSS projects such as Linu

Google didn't have much of a choice. It's either a polyfill or not supporting Firefox at all. Or having two different frontends, or stopping feature development to make Firefox developers happy. Which are terrible choices. And goi

The idea that data will somehow magically translate into FSD is laughable. It relies in the delusion that we just need to train neural networks with the proper data and then we all can go to sleep. There are many issues with Tesla's au
