If it's an actual official web standard, they might have to.

While I can see your level of cynicism on my own horizon, I'm just not there yet.

While I have issues with the rules of "the game", the current rules are better than the changes that Google are proposing, but since they are infinitely more powerful than me, I can only hope whatever body (W3C?) does not make it an official standard. As long as it's just an extra thing that Chrome/Chromium does, there's still hope for Google to get into legal trouble.

That's why they want to make it a web standard, so they can just blame Firefox and others for not following the standard and avoid EU fines.

That's what Microsoft did with their office document standard.

Open source software is supposed to have a built-in safety net, forking. The issue is that people are most often overly reluctant to actually fork projects when they go to shit (especially if they do so by boiling the frog method), or if it gets forked, they rarely really move to the newer forked project and instead keep putting up with the evil old version.

Have been using Firefox forever basically, with a brief departure when Chrome was fairly new, but later returned.

They are often very blatantly designed for a controller and a far-away screen. Take up the whole screen a lot of the time despite very few possible selections. Often they don't even include a cursor and you just drag a highlight from the centre of the wheel.

I mean, they work, but no one can say that they're designed for M+KB imo.

Yeah, but I figured "all caps" was just a misnomer. "Capital" usually refers to something being the biggest or most important in a group of things.

I thought "capital" as in uppercase letters only would refer to an uppercase letter at the start of a word.

But it also limits me to 4 spells at any given time even on PC, instead of giving me a bigger hotbar. So I guess devs just make middle-of-the-road interfaces that don't please anyone these days.

This explains the "Coming Soon" on Steam.

Wait? Console players feel like devs just copy the PC interface? Us PC players always feel like they copy the console interface and just slap a cursor on it. Buttons are huge, excessive amount of tabs, very few things visible at any time, etc. Oh and those "wheels" ugh.

Shit, I remember when I bought a pack of toilet paper and the cashier said "have a nice meal" (Swedish version) to me and I absentmindedly replied "you're welcome" and we just stared at each other before laughing.

She explained that she had just previously worked as a waitress. I didn't have an excuse, however.

Why is the penguin passing a dildo over to the bear in the first pic?

Mouth? Or is that the scary pit hole?

Well, that means the system RAM left for the CPU is 12 GB instead of 15, since the CPU and the GPU share the same 16 GB pool. So any system RAM heavy games would suffer.

That you can change the VRAM size from 1 GB up to 4 GB in the BIOS.

They really wanna save costs on the manufacturing of the containers, I guess. That's also the reason why they started using those taller thinner aluminium cans; the circular pieces at the top and bottom are thicker and therefore use more metal, reducing the area makes the whole can cheaper to make.

Using the same 2L bottles worldwide is also cheaper than making a special bottle just for the US.

Wait? American and your soda bottles use litres?

They didn't fucking click "randomise", I bet they intentionally made him.
