Google had many little features over the years that just quietly disappeared.

But then you would be more likely to have counties voting for other parties. The electoral college would actually make more sense with ranked voting.

In America you either one of the 2 main or a spoiler. Y'all really need ranked voting.

"Material You" is the new design system on android where the theme adapts to you background. They are applying this new design system to the Android settings page.

Gorhill is free to do whatever he wants, of course, I thank him for all the good work. But his reaction is honestly childish and dangerous for the community. Once again his decision to pull the plug opens the door to abusers. Now when you go to the addons page and search for uBlock, you may find illegitimate extensions pretending to be uBlock which are trying to collect your data or worse. Less tech say people don't know any better.

We have collectively agreed that Mozilla is a) not reviewing extentions enough, and b) reviewing too much.

The people who say you become more conservative usually mean that you will become more well off. And indeed when they earn their financial freedom, they want to protect the status quo. So they start seeing others as threats: be it young people wanting more rights, employees wanting fair salaries, immigrants coming for your hard earned money, everyone is a threat. This is the how the mind of an unempathic person works.

I am more conservative in the sense that I see things with more nuance. I understand societies are very complex systems in a fragile equilibrium and that my naive solutions to the world's problems are not feasible.

And yet, each day I'm more convinced we need to eat the rich.

Are there 3-4 in a row? Starlink sattelites.

Exactly and you can get better ones from other brands than the ones shipped with phones.

I enjoy the variety of vegan options but do feel sad that the traditional veggie patties almost completely disappeared from the shelves, replaced with fake meat burgers and steaks. I love them but I appreciate that we have lost some things.

I also hate the UI tbh. I want the front page to be my subscriptions. Instead you get a weird horizontal scrolling panel on a secondary tab. I wish I could get an inbox, RSS style, so I could either watch them or skip/mark as watched.

Nebula also suffers from the homepage being cluttered with old videos that are no longer relevant. For example I don't care to watch news and tech videos from 2022.
