Mozilla Firefox is Working on a Tab Grouping Feature
Firefox had tab grouping first. Before Chrome. And then it broke support for it when they did the add-ons overhaul. I'm surprised bringing it back wasn't a high priority...

Do your own research?
Anyone else think a lot of conservatives feel this way?

Are there any things in Linux that need to be started over from scratch?
Starting anything from scratch is a huge risk these days. At best you'll have something like the python 2 -> 3 rewrite overhaul (leaving scraps of legacy code all over the place), at worst you'll have something like gnome/kde (where the community schisms rather than adopting a new standard). I would say that most of the time, there are only two ways to get a new standard to reach mass adoption.
Retrofit everything. Extend old APIs where possible. Build your new layer on top of https, or javascript, or ascii, or something else that already has widespread adoption. Make a clear upgrade path for old users, but maintain compatibility for as long as possible.
Buy 99% of the market and declare yourself king (cough cough chromium).

They aren't, and I'm sick of being told they are
I remember in college we took a course on economic efficiency and the short takeaway is "the free market is extremely efficient, but only when the competing parties start with equal resources. the more inequal the starting position, the less efficient the market becomes." and to my mind that suggests that we should enforce some sort of "rubber-banding" effect so that a company needs to keep competing or else it will "drift" back to the mean over time. Something like aggressive taxes on the uber-rich and comprehensive welfare for the poor, y'know? Capitalism but with safety guards would be pretty cool.

Fellow Americans, when did you realize the "America is #1!" propaganda they feed us was a lie?
Its kinda hard to ignore the healthcare problem. That always stank of corruption.

Are you in support of UBI?
My stance on this is that if a machine can do the work of a hundred men, then ninety-nine men should be able to retire early with pay. Anything else is theft.
So, yes, I support UBI, and no, I don't think it would break capitalism. It's the same amount of money being put into circulation, just for less work.

i always say that a Gender Reveal Party can't really happen until the kid is like 16 years old. the thing people are currently doing would more accurately be called a Baby Sex Party.
