Drinking from empty cups. The way you hold, drink and move with a cup with hot liquid in it is very different from an empty cup. Whenever I see it it is all I can think about.

It's much more effective if they are grouped together waiting to catch the grenade. It also reveals the position of the soldiers in the trench.

Grenades aren't very effective in trenches, unless the victim is close by. The narrow shape and curves of the trench can shield a person from a nearby blast.

No it's worse, because they use the same names for different volumes and weights.

I imagine many already exist. But the system should be designed to fail safe with WiFi in mind.

It by default places them more intelligently than word. This frustrates people that want it to be placed where they want it.

Word doesn't place images intelligently, but it makes it easier to move images for novice users. This makes word simpler and may initially seem better. However, if your document gets large and has more content added. Word can alter the locations of images erratically and you may find yourself constantly fixing them. If you understand how latex works and accept it methods, it can be a whole lot less stressful when working on larger documents.

I wonder if Linux is 15% better, or Microsoft tracking uses that much processing.

They are probably publishing this because they've recently made bard immune to such attack. This is google PR.

There is a genetic Adam and Eve. However, I don't think they existed at the same time. These were humans, not just apes/mammals/animals/bacteria. We are all distantly related.

We are also more related to mushrooms than trees are to mushrooms.

This might have big implications for Google. If underlying technology is what determines if a browser is separate and distinct from an other one. Then all chromium browsers could be considered one browser.

Especially with chromium powering not just Chrome but edge, brave, Vivaldi, opera, Samsung internet browser etc. This makes it the default on four major operating systems, and the majority of the global market. It also makes up the majority of alternative browsers.

This is a real problem. Google have defacto control over the internet and the standards thar define how people access it. This is a big issue for Safari right now, because chromium is based on safaris web kit. However, Google forked web kit and it is going to continue to diverge. We will see less sites work on safari in the future, similar to how we see less sites work in Firefox.

This is really bad, because it forces users to use a Chromium based browser. People that prefer safari or Firefox are often compelled to install chrome because they need a website to work correctly. Despite chrome being clunkier, less battery efficient and more spyware.

I think the EU should force all significant operating systems sold to commercial users to provide an option for web browsers. This should include windows, iOS/MacOs, android, pre-installed (Linux), android and possibly chromeOS.

How the internet is accessed and the standards it adheres to are very important. It should be a truly open consortium defining these standards.

We are heading towards the same issue we had with internet explorer. This time the issue will be two major browsers rather than one (chrome and Safari). This will also be hidden by the illusion of choice between all the chromium variants. Firefox is great, but it's not got the default power like it's competitors.

Some may argue the internet has allowed them to coordinate. Providing each other with new and more novel ideas.

The problem is ideology. The Texas power grid is the end state of neo-liberalism taken to the extreme.

The belief that natural monopolies should be privately controlled with minimum regulations has lead to this. A power grid run for maximum short term profit with minimum investment. The grids poorly maintained, because that doesn't make money. The grid is unfit, because implementing designs that cover the extremes is expensive. The price is excessive because the state is ideologically unwilling to intervene.
