This gives a blank page which is not truly a blank page. The blank page shows some icons for frequently visited pages. That's why I also use an add-on to get a real blank tab.

FoxPro on DOS fits that.
Do you have warranty in your country?
Do you buy your shower heads & other plumbing from your water utility company?

I was checking out the ASUS laptop you linked. I think the SSD is SATA rather than NVMe.
Is getting a SATA SSD a good idea? I thought SATA doesn't allow you to use the full potential of SSD.

> I can see a case where City people may be more Android focused, (higher cost of living, meaning less money for a phone) would get a cheaper but good quality Android phone. But being in the City they have access to faster internet speeds.

While the article (and their conclusion) itself is not that meaningful, your mental gymnastics deserve a medal the size of a dinner plate.
Tata Motor was the #2 car company in India after Maruti Suzuki before they introduced the Nano. Nano was their CEO Ratan Tata's pet project. Ratan Tata assumed the car would sell on it's own without much marketing & advertising expenditure. But the car didn't. People preferred to buy a 2nd hand car which cost the same as a new Nano but was a much better car. Ergo, the Nano was a flop. But because it was the CEO's pet project, the company wouldn't let it go, they spent a lot of money & effort over years to make sure the car doesn't die. Tata Motors went to losses because of the time, effort & money they spent on the car. They lost their position in the market. It was only after Ratan Tata resigned & a new CEO took over that the company was turned around again. And now they have at last stopped production of the car - something which should have been done 5-6 years back.
> It takes some mental effort to respect that fact that Tata brought car-based mobility to a new generation of people that otherwise couldn't afford the level of vehicles we enjoy in more developed nations today.
Not really. The car was a flop from almost the beginning.
People preferred to buy a better 2nd hand car which was at the same price as the Nano.
> Why go after Google first when Apple is by far the bigger offender?
Because Apple's marketshare is not much.You are allowed to do anti-competitive things unless you are a monopoly.
Being a monopoly doesn't break anti-trust laws by itself. Doing anti-competitive doesn't break anti-trust laws by itself. It's when both happen together is when it's a problem.
