Back in 2009-2010 I bought an entry level 13" MacBook Pro because it was fairly competitively priced compared to other options with similar specs, but the MBP had by far the better battery life, display quality, touchpad, and probably keyboard. It was easily worth the upcharge for those factors, so no real Apple Tax.
It’s pretty niche, but https://alternativess.com (sport archery retailer)
It can be done, but then whoever forks that will need to stay on top of keeping that fork up to date with other changes in the original chromium, and that gets harder and harder to do as time goes on and more changes are made to the same or related parts of the codebase.
What has changed about RPN or calculators in the past year?
I’m honestly surprised they made 10,000 sales.
People decide who to hire for what roles and who to lay off. People form unions and people bust unions. The shareholders are people, and the decisions made in their interests are made by other people.
When was the last time you saw a corporation making decisions and taking actions of its own accord, without people?
Maybe they will start to, now, as people delegate their responsibilities to “AI”
AI on its own isn’t a threat, but people (mis)using and misrepresenting AI are. That isn’t a problem unique to AI but there sure are a lot of people doing dumb and bad things with AI right now.
You can check the release notes to be sure, but generally you can just perform the update and move on with life. Backing up your data is always a smart precaution.
Generate the binaries during test execution from known (version controlled) inputs, plaintext files and things. Don’t check binaries into source control, especially not intentionally corrupt ones that other maintainers and observers don’t know what they may contain.
You can use it for normal applications that aren’t sort of “system components” like a VPN. So if you want to install some office/productivity software, or a web browser, or a music/video player, then a Flatpak would be a reasonable choice. For most of those cases you would probably still choose the RPM if it is available, but Flatpak is also fine if not.
!cars@lemmy.world could be a starting point

I really need to hear that story.

Something like what I wrote in my other comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/6698854
Two businesses can trademark the same name if they are operating in different industries. Or, the name could have spaces or punctuation that renders the same as a TLD.
Go Ogle Photographic & Paparazzi Inc. could have a reasonable claim to the same .google TLD. The registration fee is chump change for Google/Alphabet to make sure this can’t happen.
I’m sure Google didn’t buy those for the purpose of actually using them, but rather to prevent someone else from registering and using them.
Java is JIT’d too, and Python can be depending on which runtime you deploy.
