Seems particularly manipulative to only show the last 100 years. How about the last 1000 or 2000 years instead?

Why use Snap and not one of the 19385791058 competing standards?

What else is there? Bitcoin is an investment, so this is important in the same way that the price of gold climbing like this would be important.

I see. Well I'll stick to other emulators.

Eh... Microsoft Store? So no new terminal for LTSB?

If you close the tabs and Firefox keeps using CPU, how's that Google's fault? Or are you suggesting that Google is exploiting some bug in Firefox to have it use CPU time even when the tab is closed?

That's true, it comes down to privacy. Firefox sent the full URL history of some users to a third party, an advertising company: https://blog.mozilla.org/press-uk/2017/10/06/testing-cliqz-i...
Take this into account if you're considering moving to Firefox to get more "privacy".

If ReactOS ever reaches the point where it can be used instead of Wine, I might as well just boot ReactOS and drop Linux completely.
I like Windows but I don't like the way it's heading. A perpetual XP/7 would be great.

Actually no, I play DX9 games from 15 years ago and they are still, well, not there yet.
boybd | 6 years ago | on: Wine Developers Concerned with Ubuntu Dropping 32-Bit Support
15 years ago I considered switching to Linux. I depend on some Windows applications and, above all, I want to play games. Wine looked like it was almost there, so I intended to give it another try next year.
Year by year I've been trying Wine again and again. As of today, it's still almost there. So, maybe in 2030? By now, I'll stay using Windows.
