I'm going to guess you're on iOS where you don't actually have Firefox (or any other actual browsers besides Safari). Firefox on iOS (like all iOS browsers) is required by App store rules to basically just skin Safari. On An

It's very sad how many leftist are cheering on the censorship. Forcible silencing of opposing views is a central tenant of actual fascism (not the kind of "fascism" that kids on social media accuse people of just for disagree

It's based on one single benchmark (geekbench) that has widely been discredited when comparing platforms (like x86-64 vs ARM64). iPhones also fare much worse in sustained / multiple run benchmarks due to thermal throttling. In so

You're correct. The target demo for iPad Pro is (and has really always been) only for Apple superfans. You can get something like an Asus Zenbook 13 for hundreds less, which has a real i7 CPU, supports much more software, has a dedica

Price fixing at the scale Apple operates. Apple made $267B in revenue (not profit) last year. This fine is 0.44% of that amount. Assuming this price fixing had gone on for multiple years, it would be shocking if they didn't make muc
