I had no idea this was the case, in a sane legal system this should be an open and shut antitrust case.

What a dogshit survey, there were maybe 3-4 thigs I'd actually be interested in (vertical tabs, better sync, better search engine management) It's built to confirm some manager's bias 1000% and push AI slop, which will just end up wasting Mozilla's limited funding. Also loved the "Pocket good!" Angle some of the pages forced you into as well.

I'm not sure Logitech can build a forever mouse anymore with the way their QA's gone. Who's buying new mice regularly anyway?

Honda hybrids mostly work this way except at very high speeds, where the motor is used directly. It simplifies the design by removing a traditional transmission, but they're the least efficient hybrids on the road. Honestly not worth it IMO.

It should be comparable in efficiency to Honda's hybrids, which operate on a similar principle where the gas motor mostly just acts as a generator. They're more efficient than a pure gas vehicle, but are the least efficient hybrids on the market by a pretty wide margin

And within, Sainz is still available and is an RDA driver

It's a fork of Vim but the codebase has been cleaned up to remove complexity due to legacy hardware support. It allows the use of Lua for configuration and plugin implementation instead of VimScript, which allows plugins to be written in a sanely designed, high performance scripting language, allowing plugin developers to build more complex plugins more easily without dragging down editor performance (VimScript comparability is maintained though). It has a built in implementation of LSP. Plugins written in other languages can communicate with the application via a msgpack API so deciding to support other programming languages for plugin development at compile time is not necessary.

Hopefully articles like this get more companies contributing to steamos/proton

The company i was with was still using clearcase when those were popular. I've used github, gitlab, and bitbucket as git based software forges professionally. In fairness Github is way better than the clearcase process we used.

I've used several different forges over my career and github is the worst by far. The navigation is clunky, the search never searches the stuff you want to look at without menu hopping, the recent repos doesn't include half the stuff you made a PR to recently, CI integration kinda sucks compared to gitlab or bitbucket.

This isn't a cloud infra thing, this is like if McAfee had an update that bricked your laptop.

If you publish a project under the organization can't you include a license yourself? The people running the organization might not know or understand the benefits of releasing with a license. It could be a good opportunity to teach them why releasing code with open source and copyleft licenses is important.
