Not sure what you are writing regarding Firefox Send and Lockwise. They are/were good, or at least good for me.

OK, so here goes fingerprint scanner on phones that some thought is more secure than Face Unlock and similar.

As a programmer that just sometimes wants to check if given item is available in store I would like to be able to use API for that. But if it is not available one has to scrape.

What UI changes? I run firefox nightly for ages and minor sizing changes are barely noticeable. The biggest change was moving of address bar lower and tabs higher.

Regarding systemd, I'm not sure if majority wanted it. The fact that it heats the temperature means that it is not true, more like 50/50 are for/against.

It was easy to add it using cookies/or header - few Linux distributions did that this way.

Pixel 3 and 4 were great devices, and 4 is one of its kind because it has Face Unlock. And has better CPU then 5, which was more mid range phone. If Google ads $200 headphones, it means they are afraid they won't be able to sell a lot

Irelevant for Pixel 5 (which was more of a midrange phone compared to the rest of Pixels), but relevant for Pixel 3 and 4 at least. There were preorders for Pixel 3, I know because I preordered it.

Not races. Race is artificial construct to group certain visual characteristics. But if your parents are good at math, chances are high that you will also. Genetics play huge role here, for some learning e.g. math is harder than for others.

And do you need $200 Bose headphones? Do you think it will be easy to sell them? Better get $200 off of the phone price then get freebies.
