Can you use Apple Music for free like you can do with Spotify?
I am not measuring it, that's the point. Synthetic benchmarks are useless when real life experience shows the opposite.
Firefox has worse performance than Chrome overall, despite what their synthetic benchmarks might say.

That is polarising. An extreme take. I haven't seen anybody make the argument that trans people should be killed. Just that men should not be able to use women bathrooms. In this case, that's the argument. Turning it into something like that is not going to help anybody.

I am European. "Y'all" and "folks" are big warning signs for me. When I see someone use those, I know where things are going.

I wonder if the European agency (don't remember the name) will stop trusting the FAA from now on and do their own tests. I'd thank them for that.

(According to what I read here, the European agency doesn't do exhaustive tests because they mostly trust whatever the FAA says; maybe that's false)

On factory automation machines you should be using LTSC, not Windows 10 Home.
