What does this even mean. Chromium or Webkit are not “native” to an OS. OSs don’t magically include browser engines, its not a critical component of an OS either.

Most OSs do come with browsers preinstalled, but they are programs just like any other. You can remove Safari from macOS (albeit its pretty hard because root is read only and signed), you can remove Edge from Windows. In my desktop with Windows 10 the only browser I have is Firefox (not even Edge), does that make Gecko the “native” browser engine?

If anything, the native browser engine for Windows would be MSHTML from Internet Explorer.

The problem is that there are many issues where there is no “compromise” or centrist view available, so the “balanced” opinion just supports one or the other side fully.

So… Is a manual transmission not the correct solution? should I move so I can drive a manual?

One way or the other. Cars are the real problem there.

Does anyone know of a Spotify client that works on ARM? I put an Orange Pi 5 as a smart TV box but Spotify doesn’t work in the browser because no Widevine on aarch64 Firefox.

The poor Orange Pi can also barely play video without dropping frames, the GPU drivers are awful. I might try to uninstall them and just do software-rendering everything.

Wow, I really like WD SSDs, I got an SN850X and it’s blazing fast. I really like that you can change the sector size as well, most SSDs don’t bother with 4k sectors and just leave you with 512b ones.

There are four ways forward:

  1. Corporations choose willingly to reduce emissions (and probably die in the process as their prices are no longer competitive)
  2. ALL corporations band together to reduce emissions
  3. ALL consumers band together to purchase only from corporations that have low or no emissions
  4. Government forces consumers and corporations to reduce emissions.

So in the real world, there is only one way forward.

They do get 100 CRI!

Though if you want perfect color reproduction its much better to get actually professional equipment

If you use modern hardware it doesn’t behave quite well and gets worse battery life. If you use any tools from Microsoft (WSL, Office, Windows Terminal, etc) most of those are incompatible or a pain to install. If you use anything from the Microsoft Store, including Game Pass, since it just doesn’t include the Microsoft Store.

Ah yes, I forget I cannot criticize a thing I partake into in hopes it improves.
