They are not, because if you stay in 4G, your experience will only worsen with time.

If you have a username full of weird casing and unicode characters you kinda deserve people not being able to add you
Regarding discriminators: have 5-digit discriminators for usernames used by more than 10000 accounts

It's even worse that if you try to add bob#1234 and he doesn't exist because it's Bob the error message you get doesn't remind you usernames are case sensitive.

How is VAC the ideal solution? It is awful even in theory.

Is this something that can be fixed with a software update or is it basically game over?
I've got an MS-7E07 which is in theory not affected, but who knows...

So don't play the game. Personally I want kernel level anticheats because they make it much harder to cheat in the game. I want to know that my opponents are not cheaters. That's something I don't have in CS:GO, a game ripe with cheaters, or TF2, a game ripe with bots. (Valve's usermode anticheat is absolutely useless)

It's cultural, and I'm not sure I agree that it's an issue. Different cultures behave in different ways.

I'll never get tired of saying it: politicians are the same as the citizens that vote them in. In India they won't vote out corrupt politicians because the citizenry is corrupt itself.

Re:Enhancements to the Kagi Search Experience

https://kagi.com/pricing?plan=individual
I knew Kagi is paid but I didn't know they had a limit on how many searches you can perform, which is also rather low. But what I really didn't like is how dishonest they are. The lowest tier costs $5 and includes 200 searches per month. That is 6.66 per day! But they say "Includes enough searches for 99% of internet users" because "The average person searches Google three or four times per day". They know very well that someone for pays for Kagi (or even knows about Kagi) doesn't perform three or four searches a day.

Interpreting an mp4 file as executable code is not a feature of a media player, not to mention there's no way to disable it. Bad analogy.

Webmasters are not giving their users' browser histories to jsdelivr. Instead, their users have configured their browsers to load 3rd party content.

They took Gecko, the slowest rendering engine that there was (is?), made an entire OS around it, and put it on the slowest mobile phones that existed back then. That was not a gamble, that was throwing money down the drain.

Safari only runs on Apple hardware and the world at large is poor. Like really, really poor.
Safari has 34.6% share in the US: https://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share/all/united-s...

The browser wars are over because Firefox lost them by spending all the time patting themselves on the back about how much better they were than the competition, wasting their money on stupid stuff like this instead of improving their browser.
Getting themselves into a deeper hole is unlikely to help, imo.
