We can wrangle around this, but absolutely most civilian deaths in the twentieth century was caused by very atheists regimes. And yes, that holds true even if you include Hitlers regime on the religious side despite the fact that major reli

I am a Linux user. For me lagging on Windows is not only noticeable but also maddening. Typically my old laptop with a 3 year old processor and half the memory is snappier running a mainstream distro with KDE Plasma than a brand new one run

It doesn't force Safari. Chrome is absolutely allowed to create a browser and track users and monetize them on iOS. They just have to use the same rendering engine. I'm not Apples greatest fan (see my latest comment), but there is

What this needs IMNSHO is guarantees that once the document is loaded it won't do anything funny. My preferred approach is a 1. small subset of modern HTML and css 2. (optional) that can link to a common package of JS to do things like

Opinions differs widely here. My observations: - I can get away with about half the memory on Linux vs Windows (significant contribution comes from not having to run VMs for docker and WSL, but also it seems applications and services use le
