Another factor, albeit a smaller one, is that not everyone wants to move away from them. I have a friend who loves his classic cars and feels threatened by the thought that alternative methods would take away his biggest joy in life. There is also the practicality aspect - I don’t drive but if I were to buy an electric car I have no idea where I would charge it, there’s not that much of an infrastructure for it that I’ve seen near me.
Well I guess I don’t have a particular or consistent system but I can find what I need pretty quickly. I have a few tab groups for stuff like youtube, bandcamp which helps a lot, and I use Simple Tab Groups in firefox which has been amazing (but I’ve only been using one group/window so this is kind of defunct now), but otherwise there are areas of tabs which are related and they are roughly in chronological order. I will manually move tabs so there are areas of certain topics. I know I can scroll all the way to the right for old tabs, and then left of that a specific topic I was learning about at that time, then left of that something roughly related by topic or time, and so on until all the way to the left is the most recent tabs (and then a bunch of pinned tabs that I use very often). It’s like a map of time and topic, and not just a bunch of random tabs like you might imagine.
Bold of you assume that it is not being used.
The point is that it may look like a mess to you but that doesn’t mean it is objectively a mess. Hundreds of open tabs can still have logic and organisation even if that is not obvious to you.
Because the whole world is America, right?
Shockingly, some people function differently to you.
It probably is functionally not too different. I have the bookmark bar open but I mostly have all the sites I regularly go to there. Additionally, I have thousands of bookmarks from many years so wading through them for something I briefly saw and was interested in last week but can’t remember enough detail on to find isn’t very fun or easy. And where do I look for it? One bookmark could be categorised in many ways so I also have to remember where I saved it. Tags are good but I have too many for that to be very useful or quick.
I do use grouping as well, and I really like it, but this just causes me to have even more tabs because there is less pressure to trim down the endless list since I can hide them.
For me it is not about being unable to organise them but once it is bookmarked it is basically gone from my sight and memory.
This assumes that elections are fair and not manipulated, and that money doesn’t reach all sides, which isn’t a given at this point.
This is how Trump works, and it is a technique used by many others (see Brexit) though. Suggest something completely ridiculous without intention of it passing but the idea sticks and you end up with a compromise being considered that wouldn’t have previously stood a chance.
Tauon.
Failing that mod+cantata (although I think this is not really maintained anymore).
It’s baffling that anyone reads their articles, let alone posts them as a basis for debate on a scientific topic.
Definitely lichess. It makes it very obvious how much of desperate cash cow chesscom is.
Seems a lot of people share this view that somehow he’s for the little guy, despite quite clearly being for the opposite. It’s the same over the pond, there’s a paranoia held by many that the government is out to persecute the common people. Very strange on both sides, it’s almost Orwell levels of Newspeak.
You’re too funny
What does atomic mean in this sense? That seems more confusing than immutable.
Is the three musketeers really on par with the count? I’ve been meaning to read it for months but I always got the sense it would be disappointing.
All of HP Lovecraft’s stories.
Not quite that extreme where I am but it is being thrust into any kind of strategy scenario with absolutely nothing to back it up. They are desperate to incorporate.
