WHERE IS MY LAWSUIT!?
This looks like it might be a useful feature for some users. If it is clearly advertised and using it is optional, I'm not sure I see a problem here.
Is there any (non-tinfoil) expectation that any related behaviour in Firefox is not being added transparently and optionally? The description seems ambiguous about what triggers these previews. If merely hovering over a link would be enough to cause a visit to another page then personally that's probably something I'd want to turn off. Others might have a different attitude to risk there. In any case, if there's some kind of active choice where you need to click or press in a specific way to trigger it, that seems reasonable.
The first 5 minutes of the Wizard of Oz are sepiatone. I used to think it was black and white/sepia film, then I visited Kansas and realized it's just that Kansas IS sepia tone!
That aside, Hjostbisters was one of my favorite movies from that time. I have even made reference to "the Twinkie" occasionally.
Threads is the Big Bang Theory of social media
What?!? I've never found that Privacy Rapists' site anywhere near as funny, insightful, or hilariously trolling as the show.
Don't worry, Microsoft has you covered. In a couple of months, Windows 10 will also be EOL. And there are millions of computers that could run Windows 7 or Windows 10 but can't run Windows 11.
Intel has done some good things in the day, but they have always been far from the infallible genius of their carefully manicured public image. Even the x86 was half accident. They had something going with ARM but dumped it because not invented here. Itanic was every bit the disaster it's nickname implies.
Then the whole debacle of rigging the compiler to sandbag AMD.
Speaking of DOGE, wasn't that total re-write of the SSA's old COBOL code supposed to be done by now?/s
Don't worry, Trump is working hard to spend it all on ballrooms, gold toilets, masked thugs, and God knows what else. It's looking like a negative net savings.
Were all of the offended parties under the age of 25 by any chance? We have been working hard to make society increasingly hypersensitive and mentally ill.
Let's say they were. That still makes him a toxic manager.
If you're sending 10% of your subordinate to therapy because you traumatized them, what do you think the other 90% of them think of you.
Now let's talk turnover of those subordinate - some of the other 90% will quit before long with such a toxic environment. Really think the new batch to replace them will be 'tough-as-nails-folks'? Try again, they'll be the younger crowd, because the experienced, older ones know to avoid shitty managers, especially ones with reputations that proceed them. So you still have to manage the "under 25" crowd, and if you don't know how to do that without sending them to therapy or packing for a better job with no notice, then you're a shitty toxic manager.
Toxic behavior is not only nothing new at Apple, it appears to be a core value from day one.
This, 1000%
So not much to go on just based on this small blurb and stats like 10+ employees complaining about him.
Again, as dgatwood said, it's not 10 people simply complaining about him, it's him causing those people to be traumatized by him.
Well, some of that is for classes for people who can't see that default 3-pixel wide scrollbar on Windows 11 in high contrast dark mode.
Yeah, you're blessed to have one of each. Until they start conspiring against you, which you KNOW is going to happen.
For all my pro-life ramblings, we were granted only one child. He's 22 now. I'm not sure if I'm jealous or worried about you. Keeping up with two toddlers after age 50 can't be easy.
In other news, by marrying close to my age, I'm spending 51 to 54 in caregiving activities to the point that I can't keep up with a 40 hour a week job, and the job market is such ain't nobody gonna hire me anyway, so I'm striking out on my own and trying to trick old people into paying me $300 to back up their Windows 10 boxes and switch on TPM in UEFI if it exists:
