Comment Re: France is Blindingly Pro-Nuclear (Score 1) 236

You're more than happy to get our power for a fraction of what we should be really paying. Germany green energy is largely subsidized by France. And we're REALLY NOT HAPPY that our consumers are paying 4x the Price juste ton prevent the collapse of Germany industry. So at least stop complaining.

Comment monkey typing at random on typewriter (Score 1) 256

A monkey typing at random on typewriter will write Shakespeare's complete works in an long period of time. A monkey playing at random on a saxophone will produce jazz at the first take. Do we need more/different jazz ? Of course we don't! Some years ago musicologists complain that musical habits of people where fixed in their very young years and they tend to listen to only music of their generation. Now one are complaining this is the opposite. I see no problem with people listening "old" music that has been curated for decades if not centuries. Is there a risk for new music?. I don't think so. There's a risk for bad music (90% of music of any era). It will be forgotten. The rest will become a classic.

Comment Re:You WILL care (Score 1) 408

the second coming of the "IE Only". Yeah I fear that. I call it "FF devs don't give a damn". Lots of things in web worker seem to be stalled because of Firefox limitations (document parser, offscreen canvas) and FF dev don't care (or rather "this will be too much work"). Watch out, there will be a time when applying FF workarounds will be too much time too.

You don't get it (or pretend not to). Firefox push(ed) propaganda on my welcome page (through snippets (that could be disabled in FF Settings/Homepage/...)) Chrome does not. It only lists my preferred sites or last sites I visited. There could be some politics in Google.com (through the doodles) but Google.com is NOT my browser. Chrome IS.

Comment Re:eliminating features and options (Score 1) 408

Mozilla is throwing millions at collecting opinions/feelings of non tech savvy users who don't give a damn about UI. Then a clique of UX dev decide what is good for everyone (and apply a 1.25 scale factor because mobile and nonthreatening colors because inclusion) When power users say the new choice is idiotic for x reasons and not supported b numbers then the UX dev team ignore them and start menacing closing the bug report. And it needs tenth of opponents to the new choice before they step down. How (in)sane is that ?

Chrome (or chromium) Tons of extensions. Not pushing their politics in my throat in my homescreen like Firefox. If there were UI changes; they didn't bother me as much as those from FF. Better debugging tools. ... Down sides is privacy. But I'll happily trade my privacy (or rather I'll enforce it using external tools) against FF propaganda.
