I kinda like doin' that. Dunno why. I'm a sucker for perfectionism.

Firefox being slow has almost nothing to do with Mozilla's incompetence or the browser's inability to handle websites.

When devs build websites, they usually build them for the most popular browser, aka Chrome. They couldn't be bothered to help the minority of people who use Firefox. Also, cost. Building a website to work with 2 different engines is more expensive than building it for just one engine that'll work for 99% of users. That's why a lot of banking websites never support FF.

Another primary reason is Google's Monopoly. Almost everyone uses some Google service or another. Google's websites are tailored to perfectly fit Chromium, not FF. This is why you'll sometimes see websites break or even crash. YouTube's recent ambient mode made the site choke quite a lot on FF. An average Joe ain't got the knowledge to know or even troubleshoot the issue and they'll just shift to Chromium, where everything just works.

You learn somethin' new everyday. Thanks for enlightening me. 😁

I'm not sure why FireFox is often depicted as a red panda. Isn't it supposed to be a fox? (Not going to lie, both are cute.)

The person who solved the Poincaré conjecture was Russian mathematician, Grigori Perelman who declined the prize as it was not also offered to Richard S. Hamilton, upon whose work he had built.

Well, talk about a cool solution to a pressing problem! 😉

I perform a highly sophisticated ritual known as "struggling to find the most comfortable position", only to wake up later feeling like I went ten rounds with a mattress." It's real art, ya know.

👏🏻 Well done. Love all the little details.

Harry Potter. Practically grew up with the series.

Free TV was mostly politics, news and religious stuff (maybe I remember it that way because my Dad mostly used the TV). About the only time I was really invested in television was when the 2006 World Cup aired.

The Netherlands. And by popular, I mean in my locality. Growing up, going to the theater was a luxury experience. I had a friend who was better off and he and I shared CD's of movies and video games and so on.
