If in 2019 you haven't bothered to buy the domain name for your restaurant you can't call this "cybersquatting", honestly.

Wow, that is terrible.

A rather big part of the population smokes weed? What?

>A genuine question, Aren't all EU citizens supposed to be treated equally across the EU?
Nope. At least by now, but little by little they are taking the sovereignty of members.

I think the obvious answer is "less safe at first, safer in the long term". Only that a plane is not something you want to ever be less safe, so it's a risk that might not be worth taking

>There's usually no noticeable difference for a user whether the dialog they opened via a button click is built in highly optimized C++ or from an XML resource stream that is read, parsed, and the UI constructed on the fly by effectively interpreting the UI description.

I don't know how many cops are there in the US but thinking most of them are psychopaths is absurd.

I'd use it, but where are there installers that 1) I can trust and 2) are updated as soon as Google releases a new version and 3) that allow me to get automatic updates (without having to check for an update .exe myself)?

>Sure, Microsoft is bad, but can random hobbyists on the internet produce something of the same quality?
Can they? All pieces of software that are the core part of the Linux desktop (kernel, Xorg, GNOME, Firefox, etc) are backed by big corporations.
