LOL!
Well, at least the chromium link properly links to the article about the chemical element, not to Google's web browser..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium
@over_clox @varden because the browser is called chrome and chromium is the upstream not well know project
How is chromium "not well known"? It's a pretty well known fact that most popular browsers (except for safari and Firefox) use chromium
XKCD 2501
I dare you knock on your neighbor’s door and ask them what chromium is. If they come back to you within the week and answer “a browser”, you give them a cookie.
What if they reject all cookies?
Are they European?
Is it true that unless they're European, it's legal to shove cookies down their throat, even if the cookies you're force-feeding are malicious or 3rd-party?
On a different note, do you happen know a good cookie blocker? A *cough* friend is trying to diet.
Instructions unclear, I ate the cookies
Among techy people.
Among ordinary users, I don't think so.
