It's the exact opposite imo. I'd imagine that doesn't really make a difference considering Edge is cross platform, and their goal is to collect as much data as possible.
Plus, they just collect different kinds of info through Windows. So Windows + Edge is even worse, especially since it integrates just as deeply into Windows as IE did years back.
Oh my god look at how big this Java project is before I compile it, what a nightmare!!1!1!1!
When shipping to customers, all code is your responsibility, dependency or otherwise. A bug or a security vulnerability, which aren't rare in the JS ecosystem, is your responsibility whether you wrote the code or not. Customers don't care if someone else wrote it, it's your product, you are to blame.
Thus, the less code, the better. Less moving parts also means more stability in general.
the most popular language and the most successful cross platform development platform in the entire history of programming
But no, I'm sure it's the millions of successful developers and users who are wrong.
People can be successful with things that aren't perfect. It's often a matter of being the first, not being the best. Something can be popular and still not be good, momentum is hard to stop. If JS's own creator saying so in the last few years can't convince you of that, I don't know what will.
Flash at one point was the most popular. It was still flawed, and a liability, but I bet that doesn't hurt you as much to hear.
Everything is shit but you amirite?
Quite the contrary. I have flaws like everybody else, but at least I don't deflect every single criticism of stuff I like because in can't fathom it not being perfect. It's fine, use it. Maybe one day you'll find a platform that'll make you realize there's better stuff out there.
But I'm done arguing with you. I should have known by the tone of your first reply that this wasn't going to be a real discussion, just you being butthurt because someone said something negative about your favourite language. Go get butthurt somewhere else.
Aside from some notable examples, I've had great luck with gaming on Linux. Wayland's still rough (thanks Nvidia) but it's not that big of an issue; general usage is fine and development is fantastic.
There is only one issue when it comes to games...
I have a VR setup...
No I just don't get what any of that has to do with a joke about Wikipedia becoming weird because it's being run by a crazy anime girl from Konosuba, that's all...
Oh I'm dead tired of it too, I can assure you,
but banning a party is not an actionable solution; heavy regulation for polititians and political parties is:
in terms of the donations they can and can't receive, the behaviour they need not to engage in, requiring a perfectly clean record (that includes corruption as well) and so on. Decisions should be backed by science and not ideology, religious discourse that isn't about inclusion should be banned.
Oh and no more lobbying for crying out loud.
Hopefully the new supreme court reform gets the US one step further towards that.
I with all this also was a purely American issue, but alas... Europe has to deal with all this crap as well...
