Sure, makes sense.

I had plenty of reasons not to vote for her, I just had more reasons not to vote for you know who, and I know how first past the post voting systems work. A lot of people seem to have trouble with that and think that a protest vote is a real thing.

TBF the US was always such a threat, and it was obvious. It was always insane for other nations to use Microsoft products. They have been a US defense contractor all along. It's especially insane though since five eyes was established, because all of the member nations knew for sure that Microsoft was involved.

EU companies are subject to the same laws, the difference is that they act like it.

If these companies don't want to obey the laws they can pull out like your father should have

Taking legal action to protect customers and reduce waste is anything but ridiculous. Any real country that wants to be taken seriously should do those things.

I thought they didn't pay their public servants well either. Our agencies can't get the best people specifically because they don't do that, are they any different?

"If solar is so great and cheap, why does it require so much taxpayer money to "make sense"?"

You're pretending fossils and nuclear don't get subsidies.

Pretending is fun but it doesn't move this conversation forward.

But you have no problems voting for a traitor and child rapist as long as it has a penis?

Ok coward. Pay my way including my USA former resident slave tax.

Trump is the same kind of conservative as the rest of the Republicans, i.e. not actually interested in conserving or preserving anything but his own privilege.

"No the EU should act like vassal state that it is"

The US is rapidly leaving its first world status behind. Not surprised you can't see this given where your head is stuck.

Or indeed, any time before we institute some strong controls which somehow prevent this from happening again. And good luck to us on that.

Can't trust the old stuff not to fail, can't trust the new stuff not to fail or spy on you, but I can trust my ability to replace capacitors

Fuck off, Ivan. No one debunked Trump's well-documented collusion with Russia.

I want them to keep the software working and supporting current standards. I don't want them shoehorning things into it which don't make sense. And because I actually remember what was promised when the project began, I also want it to be an extensible platform which things are added to using extensions, not to have everything shoved into it in the first place. There's a ton of stuff in Firefox which has no business being in the base install, like the stuff that used to be in the Web Developer extension. They have literally made it less modular over the years, when the premise was modularity. Defending their reneging on the basic premise is anti-user.

No, they don't, at least not in features. They could innovate in performance.

Most of us chose to use Firefox at least in part because we didn't want things that we didn't want in the browser, and they are fucking that up, and I don't care what you think about it. There's already a browser for you, it's called Chrome.

How nice for you and the other guy.
