  • Development of IE stagnated after Microsoft put Netscape out of business, because Microsoft got complacent, until Mozilla resurrected the remains of Netscape and saved the web. Then Chrome came along and Google convinced almost everybody to switch to it, including competing browsers like Opera. Chrome was originally based on Safari’s WebKit (a fork of Konqueror’s rendering engine KHTML), but then Google forked it (Blink) so they’d maintain control of it.

    From what I’ve heard, most web devs only test on Chrome since every browser other than Firefox and Safari is based on it. And nobody seemed to care until very recently, because they didn’t think a browser based on an open source project could possibly be a problem.

    I’m honestly not surprised any of this happened, and I stick to Firefox and Safari myself, but I do worry about the ramifications of getting a real Chrome on the iPhone and iPad. I never liked Chrome and don’t want to be forced to use it.










  • You already know the majority of Lemmy users would agree with me that Trump is a racist. Because he fucking is. I thought I didn’t need to state the obvious, but there you go.

    I don’t think accusing ANY reporter of being a crack addict is an appropriate thing for a politician to do under ANY circumstances. Feel free to disagree with me on that, but whatever. It’s my opinion.

    Your argument seems to boil down to “If you say anything bad about Biden, you’re a Trump supporter falling for his propaganda!” My argument is that this binary view of politics is the real problem with this country.

    I don’t like Trump OR Biden. Why is this so fucking hard for you people to understand?

    I want to see voting reform. Keep in mind that Trump won his first term due to a fatal flaw in our election system. And by the way, I voted for Hillary Clinton. But as it stands now, it seems like you people would be happy with Strom fucking Thurmond in office (one of Biden’s buddies) if he was alive and a Democrat today.
