I don't know if it would, necessarily. So many alternatives are chrome-based, and part of the reason google was able to accrue that share to begin with was by putting a "get chrome now" in the corner of every search you did.

Most alternatives don't have that same kind of advertising reach to displace chrome, especially not for casual users.

They also don't want to be caught unprepared if it turned out that microgravity messed with menstruation, and made it worse than it would be on earth.

You basically see it with some sites now, where you're just told "use chrome if you have any issues", and then it reflects badly on firefox, because a casual user might just think it's the fault of the browser that it's poorly made and doesn't work properly.

For the websites, it's not worth writing around browser-specific quirks, when the vast majority use a chrome-based browser.

It might make sense for industrial applications, where they can use it to tell if something has gone off before shipping it out, or having someone sniff all the food.

Are people deleting because of karma?

At least from my time on Reddit, when people deleted something, it's because they didn't want the post to come back and bite them a while because of others seeing it after the fact, or they just regularly scrubbed the account for privacy reasons, rather than anything to do with actual karma.

At the very least, he was seen as the face of the Wolf 359 massacre, and wasn't seen in a good light because of it. A lot of Starfleet outright hate him, and we saw concerns being floated that he was compromised by the Borg now, and might betray Starfleet for them, hence his being kept out of the battle in First Contact.

Maybe it's like one of those servo pies, where it's heated inside of the plastic, and you buy it wrapper and all?

The experience does help when it's ambiguous, since you can tell that it shouldn't be like that before it gets to a point where you retch.

Plus it also helps you tell when your sense of smell is throwing a false positive. For me personally, I'd be more likely to lean on my cooking experience, since my hardwiring would automatically file all raw meat, including fresh from the butcher, as being off.

None. NASA can probably afford to contract one of the many super-geniuses for their engineering services to get a launch vehicle out in no time flat. Wayne Enterprises and LexCorp are engineering powerhouses, it wouldn't be surprising if they already had some prototypes done up already.

I don't understand the point of sending the original e-mail. Okay, you want to thank the person who helped invent UTF-8, I get that much, but why would anyone feel appreciated in getting an e-mail written solely/mostly by a computer?

It's like sending a touching birthday card to your friends, but instead of writing something, you just bought a stamp with a feel-good sentence on it, and plonked that on.

The parallels between Musk and Stark seemed perfect on paper. Both are billionaire tech innovators with a flair for the dramatic and dreams of changing the world.

They're not, though. Stark is a rare engineering powerhouse who personally pushed past a lot of engineering boundaries, and Musk is an investor/programmer who mostly puts his name on existing things.

I might change my mind if Musk personally invents AGI, nanobots, and a previously-unknown clean energy source capable of powering a 1/3rd of NYC with a room no larger than a foyer, like Stark did, but I'm not holding out much by way of hopes.

You say that like A/S/L wasn't a thing back in the day.

What is a "trustworthy software environment"?

Does that mean that it will get mad and fail you for having Developer options enabled? Having F-Droid installed? Having it plugged into a computer?

There's also an argument that if the business was that reliant on free things to start with, then it shouldn't be a business.

No-one would bat their eyes if the CEO of a real estate company was sobbing that it's the end of the rental market, because the company is no longer allowed to get houses for free.

I must have horse-blindness, since I can't actually see the horse photobombing in any of the other photos.

It's also pretty important infrastructure. Even before AI, one of the major providers datacentres going down would take out a solid chunk of modern internet.

And during the end-credits, they sing "Vale homo qui est faba".

Farewell, the man who is a bean.

You can always trust Microsoft to make two version of the same application and to have really bad naming.

And to make bad naming worse naming, since they switched Office's name to 365 Copilot, not to be confused with 365 (office premium), Copilot (ChatGPT interface), or Copilot (Office text assistant). Office was a perfectly serviceable name they'd used for decades. It's like Twitter rebranding themselves to a single latter like Y. Why would they throw away branding like that?

People are liable to look for office, not find it, and go "oh, Microsoft doesn't sell Word any more ☹️'

Nor their history with intercepting/inserting affiliate links. Sure, that was for a crypto site, but nothing suggests that it can't happen with other things.

It's arguably worse, since it seems to be more pervasive than crypto and NFTs were at their peak.

Crypto never really hit the mainstream, and even NFTs were still fringe. Whereas AI and AI accelerators are packed into basically every new phone and (Intel) processor.
