Usenet to me seems more like Lemmy than anything else. All conversations are groups by topic, just like Lemmy. Although they are all just “text posts”.

I don’t see how a “Chrome” company would make any money. Now if the Chrome Company also owned ChromeOS and Chromebooks that might be interesting. But it could also be bad, because such a company would probably want to take a cut of every Chromebook in order to actually make money.
Isn’t forex just foreign currency trading? I don’t understand how a foreign currency could be worth 50000USD one minute and only 600USD 5 minutes later unless it was a country with hyperinflation.
Are you saying Google funds node.js development?
Google abuses that market share by breaking web standards,
Has this actually happened? Are there examples?
[Google controls how people view the internet]
This doesn’t quite make sense. How does Chrome “control how people view the internet”? Isn’t html/css the main thing that controls how people view the internet?
[ and what ads they see in part through its Chrome browser, which typically uses Google search,]
But it is trivial to change your default search agent right?
Is this move something we should view as a good thing, and if so, then why?
Yes I would like to know what that means for ChromeOS and Chromebooks. If the new “Chrome” company got ChromeOS also that would be huge. But if that is not a requirement Google could just put another Chromium browser in ChromeOS. They could also continue to sell Chromebooks but based on a ChromiumOS fork.
What does Chrome have to do with a node.js server?
What’s to stop them just making another browser?
Nothing. Chromium is open source. So they could just fork it and declare a new “official” google browser and it would be a lot like Chrome.
I’m not sure why the govt thinks forcing google to give up a particular fork/branch of an open source browser is all that meaningful. It might make more sense if Chrome was a closed source one of a kind browser.
You can’t trust ebay ratings either because if you have a bad experience they often won’t let you post a review
[We still strive to get as many DRM-free titles as possible on GOG, regardless of when they were first released.]
This is why I will always buy a game on GOG rather than Steam if I can.
Extended Support Release,
Hey thanks for the info. I didn’t know about this.
How does that help with unwanted update nagging?
Doesn’t work. Firefox keeps nagging me to update every freaking time I open the browser. Now if they let me turn the nagging off it wouldn’t be so bad.
I want an update once per quarter, not once per week. Only more often than that if there is a critical security fix.
Why the heck did Mozilla need 120 employees for anyway? I hate that Firefox is updated so often because I always get Firefox Update Fatigue. I hope that fewer employees means fewer Firefox updates.
Yes. I can’t imagine being foolish enough to automatically update your external dependencies when you don’t need to.
Yes. Sounds like the law itself is flawed.
The point of including worldwide stock is to reduce risk in case the US has a recession, as not all other countries will be affected by that.
This seems to be generally no longer true.
Companies should not even be issuing future “earnings expectations”. They mean little and warp the market. Drives me crazy when I hear financial talk about "future p/e’. It’s just a fake number. The only real p/e ratio is the trailing p/e ratio.
Yikes. I would have never considered that doing this would be anything more than a wild gamble. It is a good thing that you only lost pretend money.
