    Is there a reason you capitalize every use of the word gifted? Genuinely curious.

    Disney+ lost 1.5 billion dollars in 2022. How are you judging that they won anything?

    Yeah, It's tough. First of all, the D+ strategy was absolutely key in the entire streaming war for Disney to come out on top.

    Online advertising has been used as an attack vector on many occasions. You might trust the site, but who do they trust, etc.

    Corporate expression at it's finest! I guess television commercials are art, so why not this. "Brought to you by Carl's Jr."

    “Making a puffer for the summer is an external expression of how refreshing and cool it feels to drink a Tiger. I started with the feeling of opening an ice-cold can of beer, and playing with the colours of Tiger Beer, before imbuing the aesthetics of the puffer with a new function.”

    Yeah, after I posted that I realized it was only macOS software. There is absolutely zero percent chance I use the software now. Apple is a horrible company, and they don't get my money.

    Neat! I actually really like this model of development. I'm not sure if it will become my main browser, but it seems like a fun bit of software to check out.

    I also like the model of paying for search to support Kagi/Orion.

    Of course they don't. This entire story is literally nothing. "Foreign government makes request that news network can, and will, ignore." It is a daily occurrence. Literally every day this...

    Of course they don't. This entire story is literally nothing.

    "Foreign government makes request that news network can, and will, ignore."

    It's a sort of concerning action from a government that claims to be on the side of freedom.

    It is a daily occurrence. Literally every day this happens. This is such a non-story that it is mildly entertaining.

    "Breaking news: Government makes a request of private entity! Sound the alarms!"

    The government making a request, not an order, is illegal in the US? I have been reading the wrong history books.

    I consider myself a dinosaur/pre-history... uh, enthusiast. Your comment is the only one that taught me something new. TIL that dimetrodon was a synapsid, not a sauropsid. They could be our ancestors!

    There are an estimated 50 billion avian dinosaurs living today. I ate some today, but it was not alive.

    I think that would change very quickly depending on Microsoft's rumored actions. Anecdotally, I would completely jump ship to Linux, but I am experienced with it already.
