What does this even mean. Chromium or Webkit are not "native" to an OS. OSs don't magically include browser engines, its not a critical component of an OS either.

Most OSs do come with browsers preinstalled, but they are programs just like any other. You can remove Safari from macOS (albeit its pretty hard because root is read only and signed), you can remove Edge from Windows. In my desktop with Windows 10 the only browser I have is Firefox (not even Edge), does that make Gecko the "native" browser engine?

If anything, the native browser engine for Windows would be MSHTML from Internet Explorer.

So... Is a manual transmission not the correct solution? should I move so I can drive a manual?

One way or the other. Cars are the real problem there.

Does anyone know of a Spotify client that works on ARM? I put an Orange Pi 5 as a smart TV box but Spotify doesn't work in the browser because no Widevine on aarch64 Firefox.

The poor Orange Pi can also barely play video without dropping frames, the GPU drivers are awful. I might try to uninstall them and just do software-rendering everything.

Wow, I really like WD SSDs, I got an SN850X and it's blazing fast. I really like that you can change the sector size as well, most SSDs don't bother with 4k sectors and just leave you with 512b ones.

They do get 100 CRI!

Though if you want perfect color reproduction its much better to get actually professional equipment

If you use modern hardware it doesn't behave quite well and gets worse battery life. If you use any tools from Microsoft (WSL, Office, Windows Terminal, etc) most of those are incompatible or a pain to install. If you use anything from the Microsoft Store, including Game Pass, since it just doesn't include the Microsoft Store.

Ah yes, I forget I cannot criticize a thing I partake into in hopes it improves.

While I like secure boot and leave it enabled when possible, to be honest it only protects against a type of attack so elaborate its pretty much useless. Whenever its minorly inconvenient I just disable it without worry.

I haven't seen anyone hate Fedora until this meme.

Now, Red Hat, which has strong ties to Fedora, is doing a lot of stupid bullshit. I actually moved to Debian due to that, not really because I think its superior (at the end of the day, all distros can do the same stuff) but because I'm getting tired with corporations

I really like the razors, here Hanlon's razor is relevant:

"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity"

I'm sure Elon has no grand plan behind any of this, just a chain of impulsive actions.

RADV is the default community Mesa driver, made by Valve engineers.

AMD's own Vulkan implementation is called AMDVLK, which is just a port of their Windows Vulkan libraries repackaged for Linux. AMDVLK usually moves faster than RADV and got raytracing much earlier. And even though RADV added raytracing as well, RADVs raytracing is much slower than AMDVLK. Maybe this changes will finally close the gap?

I have an installer for Opera 12.18, the last one to use their Presto engine. Every once in a while I test it out to see how it has aged.

It's not pretty haha. It barely works.
