I know we are not representative of the average browsers user, but how many different browsers do you use? I’d wager most tech savvy people segregate their use to two or more different browsers for similar reasons people have more than one email address.
I use Chrome for work and the primary on my VR headset.
Safari for most personal use; and on my phone and tablet.
Firefox for work when I need a separately cached browser.
Dia occasionally to play around with its AI forward nature.
Wolvin on my VR headset to access some things better than with Chrome.
Chrome and Safari are probably 85% of my use cases.

Most people probably only use one browser, but there are lots of use cases where more is better.

How many browsers do you use and why?

I’m guessing copper is out. Fiber proves to be a superior tech, once again.

Okay I am sure that your millage may vary depending on where you live, what you buy, want where you spend your time. But if their point is that many environments are saturated with the stuff, they are certainly right.

I have had some fantastic beers in Japan. Just not from Sapporo or Kirin. They are fine, but nothing special. Basically fuller flavored Budweiser with a few different notes. Just like the USA if you want good beer all you have to do is stay away from the major breweries.

They also excel at a drink called chu-hi. Basically a canned shochu highball. Lots of variety and quite refreshing. Shochu is the other traditional Japanese alcohol in addition to saki. It’s distilled from either sweet potato, barley, or rice; and sits at 25%-35% alcohol.

Anyone willing to spend mid, to high, tens of thousands of dollars on a EV is very unlikely to not be willing to clean their garage so they have a place to charge it at home. Further more, those chargers can in fact be attached to the outside of a garage as well. People come in a walks, but I don't think to following thought process is a realistic one.

"I think I should get and EV. It sure would save me money in the long run. And save me trips to gas station. That really is an excellent idea! With all the money I have socking away I can afford it too. Now is the time! But alas, I just can't bring myself to clean out that garage. I guess I will just buy gasoline car."

They should probably do that here too. If certified mail, overnight, or parcels were the only options here. Anything actually worth sending will still be sent. $7-$12 vs $0.78 isn't going prevent that. 95% of at the "letter" mail I receive are ads and such that got directly in the recycle bin. Supposedly it is all that junk mail that keeps the $0.78 stamp viable. But in reality next to no one sends letters, except for maybe once or twice a year at most. Sure some people send a holiday cards to a bunch of people. Plus there are weddings and funerals. Someone putting up the money to throw an event for 100+ people are unlikely to balk are at the marginal additional cost if they really want to send out physical invitation. But outside of those instance, or maybe trying to get laid, who sends anyone a physical letter? Lawyers? Businesses often already charge extra if you don't want to go "paperless". Maybe keep letter service alive from Thanksgiving to President Day weekend every year so people can get their holiday cards out and call it good the rest of the year. Email, text messages, instant messages, and social media have made the personal letter obsolete for most people most of the time. Just like cell phones did to the landline. If not now, give it another 15 years at most and last generation clinging to physical letters will be gone either way.

My damn grandpa cat, though still spry at 17 has done what the old do and wakes up at the crack of dawn every day the last couple years. In the winter it is fine, but damn if I don't want him to shut the hell up at 5:30 in the morning. He has food, he has water, has access to his letterbox, he can even get outside on the roof. But nooOOoooOo he wants me to give him attention. Little mother&$#@. He will however still kill all the birds that get too close. If only we could combine his early mornings with shutting up your bird problem.....maybe we all could win. Well all of us except those birds. We have 80 foot tall trees around these parts and the birds have learned to keep their distance. So the old man cat mostly just keeps the mice from making their way inside at this point. But he would still happily murder all your birds if given the chance.

Let's be honest here. At least 30% of any given population isn't too bright. And probably another 30% are at best mentally lazy. Is it better we let capitalism take advantage of them and increase the chances they are burdens and net drains on society?
It is easier to not have as much sympathy for the mentally lazy, because at least in theory if they tried harder they could make better decisions. However the net result of them becoming a burden on society is the same. In an ideal world everyone would be capable of making good decisions. And we wouldn't have people preying on the fools and morons. We don't live in that world. Yes people should be allowed to make mistakes. However, there needs to be some sort of balance. Regulation is perfectly reasonable way to deal with vice.
What is vice? Something primarily done for pleasure with a relatively high probably of addiction and/or abuse that resulting in deleterious effects for not just the individual, but also society at large. Does social media fall into that category? Yes it does. Which is why I think kids should not be allowed on their platforms. Just like we don't allow people to sell them alcohol. And as far as adult use, instead of regulating access I think a better solution to regulate the major platforms so that it is easier for the users to tell what is real and what is fake. Just like with alcohol, if someone want to drink alone and/or doom scroll alone in the dark. That should be their right to be stupid. But while driving, that is clearly a problem. Hence whey we have laws to that effect.

While you are not wrong. It also behoves society not make things easier for people to addicted or for the addict to feed their addiction. Some drugs should be illegal to manufacture and sell. Say meth, crack, opium and other street opiates. Alcohol, cannabis, psychedelics and the like should be regulated, but not banned. Though small possession of any drug should probably be only a civil offense at worst. Prostitution should be legal, but it shouldn't be on the streets and it should be regulated to minimize exploitation and ensure the safety of both the prostitutes and the Johns. It should be illegal to smoke indoors where other people are subject to the smoke who are not smoking themselves. Gambling should be legal, but it probably should not be so easily available as to be in one's pocket or home computer. Onsite gambling is good compromise, in my opinion. Making vices as easy to access as possible usually as deleterious results for society at large. Don't ban, regulate.

Maybe, the highest birth rates are in Africa. If they ever collectively figure out how to raise their life expectancy and economic outputs they could definitely give Asia a run for its money. Especially considering the most productive parts of Asia have some of the lowest birth rates in the world. Just like the most productive parts of North America and Europe.

Tackling the important issues. Yes there are lots of stupid and uneducated people out there, but I think most people understand a flat plane can accurately represent a globe. That’s why we have globes. Also since most people; perhaps not most people in Africa, but most people; see maps on phones and tablets. When you are scrolling through a screen sized map there is very little distortion. When yours scrolling scroll out on the world’s most popular online map it turns spherical. Sure use whatever offline map you like, if it makes you feel better. More power to you. Tempest in a teapot compared to any real problems and about as likely to be copied around the world as anyone besides a Trumpist calling the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America. Or Denali, anything but Denali.

I downloaded a bunch of content from prime video on my vr headset for my last international flight. Coupled with noise canceling headphones, it was great.

I was in Japan the last two week, a small majority of people sported portable electric fans in one hand and/or a reflective parasol in the other. A modern take of the classic foldable fan combined with cloth and bamboo parasols used for hundreds, if not thousands, of years.

I never tried them but I flew Frontier once. It is a mistake I’ll never make twice. I got there and back in one piece and didn’t get beaten or robbed; but that is the best I can say about the experience. As far as US carriers go, Delta and United are the only ones I’ll use. If you are flying internationally to a first world country, pretty much all the foreign carriers give you more perks and better food in economy than Delta and United. But at least United still provides free beer or wine on international flights.

I’ve own an ‘83 VW Jetta, a ‘95 Jeep Cherokee Sport, a 2005 VW Passat 4Motion, a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, and a 2019 Honda Clarity PHE. Still have the last two. By far the Passat 4Motion was the worst of the bunch. Never went longer than 6 months without needing some significant repair. Beyond regular maintenance I haven’t had any issues with the Jeeps or Honda. The ‘95 I so,d at 178k miles. The 2015 still only has 82k miles on it. The Passat only had 108k when I traded it at the dealership when I got the Jeep. The Jetta was severely mistreated and was driven into the ground by my brother and I when we were teens. So I can’t really speak to that one except to say it took our abuse and still lasted 3 years before we didn’t even try to get it to pass inspection. I am but one person but the Jeeps have treated me well and I would buy PHEV version of the Cherokee when my current one gets pass inspection to my kids in a handful of years.
