Exactly, capitalism is economic perpetual motion, you can't have exponential growth in a finite system.

Haha I was thinking along similar lines, my R5 1600 is either going to take to it with it's usual shrug while it rolls up it's sleeves or just explode, it still punches way above it's weight so hopefully it won't explode but she's getting a bit long in the tooth.

Samsung, bit more pricey but both my ssd and ram are both Samsung chips and I haven't had a single problem with either.

E. Seems that further down the thread someone is saying Samsung is having issues too, which is dissapointing as I've always trusted Samsung.

See and this is how I know it's all bullshit, what man in his mid to late thirties still has twelve friends? I've never even had twelve friends at the same time before.

It's the profit imperative biting them in the ass, you can't have exponential growth in a finite system so expect these megacorps to get more and more desperate (and draconian) as the bottom of the barrel draws ever nearer.

Jerboa also matches the font size of everything else in my UI better

This has been my biggest annoyance in all the apps I've tried so far, I'm using thunder at the moment and it's extra large font is juuust big enough, but still way too small to be called extra large.

Quite a few of the others don't even have that though, liftoff was terrible for it with no option to change it and Jerboa is easily the best in this regard but with it scaled up to match my UI it's a too much scrolling and weird formatting.

Can't wait for Boost, it was my reddit go to for years simply because of all it's toggles, I could customize pretty much every part of the UI. Which is probably why it's taking a while to come out, there was quite a bit more to it than pretty much any other of the alternatives.

Give Vivaldi a try, it's a chromium fork but with a strong focus on privacy.

No love for Iain M Banks? The Culture series looks like it will tick all your boxes and instead of following a single protagonist the Culture itself is the protagonist so each book has it's own cast of interesting characters.

Don't forget the big labour union wins for UPS and the Teamsters, no war but the class war baby.

Comrade Gang has merely come down with a case of outspokenness which unfortunately lead to a terminal case of lead poisoning.

I agree with you, I'd love to live in the world where Vivaldi chose Gecko instead of Chromium, but we've only got the cards we've been dealt so at least the Vivaldi team are always very vocal about this and have always said they're going to work around Google's more draconian decisions.

Just goes to show, google is an ad company first and foremost and they're in the process of cutting out any competition to their dominance.

Props too to Vivaldi for blowing the whistle as they have access to all the upcoming chromium builds being a fork.
