I have to switch to chromium often, unfortunately. Various websites are untested with Firefox, and many apps such as Teams are not compatible with FF. Probably better than the early 2000's but still really bad.

I think performance was part of Chrome's success, but there was also all the memes in 2010 about installing chrome to replace IE, and the ads that Google ran on their search page. I don't think Pocket came out until Firefox was already deep into the decline. I do think Chrome held onto those users because of their ram efficiency at the time, and nice features like built-in translate. Now, users can't switch because the web depends on Chrome, just like back in the IE days.

As climate change ravages Europe, the cars will survive.

His coaching from his campaign is showing through. They desperately want him to be the law and order candidate, "weathering the storm from the militant left", but he just can't help but attack the left and encourage further violence. He will sabotage his own campaign and image if he starts encouraging violence here.

He's implying that he thinks that someone should, but even the literal point he's making is not true.

pretty sure Republicans care about counterpoints if their counterpoint to "Republicans are shutting down the govt" is "them illegals!". The correct reply is "your kids!"

That's the counterpoint. The data shows that it was already illegal for "illegals" to vote and there are no reported cases of it. However, there are hundreds of cases of republicans using this law to prevent (your) college students from voting. If you have a son or daughter away at college, do they have their birth certificate with them so they can register to vote?

The Republicans are trying to prevent college students from voting with this bill.
