Not a cent of it was my money.

Tin-foil hat time but I'd be willing to bet they have mechanisms to do something resembling naked shorting with crypto. I have no idea what that voodoo might be, but they conjure shares out of thin air for shorting stocks, and they've managed to package crypto into ETFs some-fucking-how so why not. I feel like I'm increasingly noticing that nothing really seems to crash anymore.

Not when you have to make a web app render identically in them, which is what the OP was about.

I deleted my original comment before you replied because I am not really in the mood to defend this but the OP was talking about the pain of developing for different browsers and I don't care what is a fork of what, this is a fact: Chrome, Firefox and Safari all render differently and have to be catered to individually.

Also, Safari, between desktop and mobile, has 30% of the market to Firefox's 8%.

I don't LIKE it, but there are "effectively" three, not two, rendering engines.

No matter how much we loved XP we always knew that shit was ugly.

Good for them. The people deliberately killing Facebook, I mean.

Every Bethesda game since Skyrim (and arguably Skyrim, depending on who you talk to) has followed the exact same script: exponentially longer development time to shart out marginal graphics improvements, dumbed-down mechanics and vastly less engaging storytelling.

Up until Starfield I had managed to enjoy all of them for what they were (with modders' help of course). But Starfield is so aggressively dull I had a free 30-day trial of Microsoft GPU and could only manage maybe a week of playing it on the cloud before I was literally too bored to bother.

Given Bethesda's trajectory, I have to agree with you. ES6 is going to be pure shit.

This was a thing like 10 years ago too, iirc. Ads had threads and you could post in them and up/down vote them. That... didn't go well. For advertisers, that is.

Now they just need a Factory to create more Factories and they...

I apologize, this is Factorio, not Java.

I have one of each. I guess I'm Chaotic Evil.
