It's been slowly happening over the last 2-3 months. First it was the memory problems. Even if I had 3-4 tabs open only, it could go to 700k-800k memory-wise. As soon as I opened up Twitch, Youtube, or something with Flash, it shoots up past 1.5-2 million and destroys my viewing experience.

Now it takes 10-15 seconds to open any Youtube video for some strange fucking reason. Some webms aren't even opening anymore and are "corrupted" despite working just fine on Chrome.

I've hesitated to move over to Chrome because I'm too lazy to manage my bookmarks and I'm not sure if it has the same add-ons I use to manage bullshit.

I've been using this shit for like 10 years now and don't want to install the Chrome botnet. I've been loyal to Mozilla. What do, bro?

so ripping off a fucking iPhone is actually paying off?
Is the camera so important for you or you just want a decent phone and don't give a fuck about the camera being good at speed shots while falling from an airplane at night while doing black-op missions in winter?

Holy shit guys! why didnt you tell me about the cinnamon desktop until now? all I see is gnome shell, ubuntu, kde and xfce desktops posted here everytime but never cinnamon.

Cinnamon is like gnome 2 on steroids.

It might need some tweaking here and there but it works amazingly well.

I am quite impressed and happy with it.

Customization is impressive, you can download themes and applets directly from the settings menu.

Panel applets are pretty cool.


It still need some improvement but I like where this project is going.


Have a go a try it, you wont look back,

Yahoo under ex-Googler Marissa Mayer's orders collaborated with the US gov't and built spying software for them, to be used on Yahoo's own customers and users.

Yet another "women in tech!" success, after the likes of Elizabeth Holmes.

holy shit /g/, I just signed up for a new google account in incognito mode (because I didn't want it to connect with my main account), and it appeared in this list, even after closing all incognito tabs, meaning that the browser actually still saves your shit.

Alright guys, why is the new owner such a fucking kike?

m00t created the 4Chan pass not for monetization purposes, but so that he could give something back to the community for those that wanted to donate money.

It used to be that it lasted forever, too, to the best of my knowledge.

Next thing you'll know, he'll start selling user data for jew goldz and letting political parties pay him for the right to shill on the website, just like he did with 2ch.
