So in your opinion, I cannot explain why I dislike a new feature in response to a Slashdot article about how people don't like a new feature, because it's optional and I didn't write it?

Is this your first day on the internet? You don't seem to know how comment sections work.

At no point did I state or imply it was enabled by default. Not sure what post you thought you were replying to.

I wish Firefox would be more like Craigslist - a determined focus on keeping the same operations and look over decades, while only updating the underlying code as needed to keep functionality in the changing web landscape. No new features. No chasing the cutting edge. Just simply work and keep working, let the new features be handled by optional extensions and plug-ins from other companies. Let them drive the change, take the risks, and if people actually want them, the number of downloads will tell you what works. If everyone is using extension x, then Mozilla can either buy them and integrate it, or just put it on the recommended extension list. If Chrome comes out with a new "killer" feature that is actually in demand, maybe Mozilla writes an optional extension, or maybe just wait for another group to do it for them. But the core browser should look and behave the same.

The organization would be a lot leaner, development costs would plummet, consumers would be happier, and risks exported to other companies.

Who is this for? This seems to have been designed by people who would never, ever have more than the minimum number of tabs open that think it would be helpful to people completely unlike themselves. This is the fever dream of an OCD person trying to "fix" the life of someone who is the polar opposite. This is equating messy with disorganized. Messy can be organized in a way others just can't understand. I don't think there are more than a handful of people in the world who would actually use this feature.

In my experience, the worst thing you could do to someone who routinely keeps a bunch of tabs open is to reorder them when they aren't looking. Nothing would be where they think it is, and they would spend more time looking for it than if it was just left alone. It's like the person with a messy desk which drives OCD people insane, but they know where everything is. Cleaning it up would massively reduce their productivity as they spend a lot more time looking for things they think are where they usually left them, or just ignoring projects that are no longer have a reminder in their sight. It's just how some brains work, completely in contrast to an OCD person who can't work at all unless the desk is completely clean and ordered.

I know this because I am one. I tried to reform, cleaned my desk at home and was diligent for 3 months about putting everything away immediately after using it. It was the least productive and miserable 3 months of my life, so many projects never got touched, and I wasn't even doing the fun stuff I normally did. I pulled everything back out and I was happy and useful again. I routinely keep dozens of tabs open. They do not need to be reordered. I might have 3-4 pages of the same website open, each next to pages from other sites with the same relevant-to-me subject, there's no way their AI would either be able to determine subjects correctly or group it in any logical-to-me order better than it already is.

The president can't make them permanent, but he can make them without a time limit, and somehow that's different despite producing exactly the same result? That doesn't even come close to rationality.

There is no "may have violated". He clearly violated any limitation set by congress by encompassing all goods and applying them to every other country. That is not, in any way, shape, or form, "temporary wiggle room".

There are certain exceptions granted to the president, but in no way, shape, or form has the authority to enact blanket tariffs on all goods from the rest of the world ever been granted to the president by congress. It's difficult to justify a national security threat from islands populated entirely by penguins.

You don't think these aren't permanent? The administration thinks they are. Do any of them have an expiration date?

Just like the administration can't enforce tariffs, it's in Article I that only Congress has that authority. It's right there in section 10, one of the ones that "mysteriously" disappeared.

When Congress and the Supreme Court are willing partners to the destruction of constitutional separation of powers, the word "can't" doesn't apply to the administration.

If you can't create a "helpful digital assistant" that anyone can easily distinguish from a malicious scraper, then you probably shouldn't be creating traffic on the internet.

It's a bit disingenuous to relate Gmail in it's beta period, which was widely available on a bunch of devices and not really advertised, with a widely advertised non-existent key feature of a phone that has been sold for a year.

You might note the lack of the word "other" in the quoted sentence in the post you responded to. The membranes in a traditional microphones are objects.

But you knew that . Why cheekily be dumb?

You're only off by 4 decimal places. This is over a decade old:

Fixed that for you.

Bullshit. Name the car.

I would argue that Jet Airways was worse. They had to turn a flight around because the pilots forgot to turn on the cabin pressurization, injuring 30 passengers. This was about 9 months after the incident where the pilots got into a mid-flight fight, one left the cockpit, and when they didn't come back right away, the second pilot went looking for them. Thankfully, the cockpit door didn't lock them out.

My SpiceJet flight was bad, but I'll take tiny, cramped, rude and late over no one flying the plane.

The "new" company is 50% owned by the old owners. It's the same jackass who sold them without a subscription who is now demanding one. If this isn't criminal, it should be. If this isn't taken care of by the government, then he should be taken care of by a mob.
