Those were talking since purchase, which was further out than last year I think
Most “browsers” being marketed out there are based off of Google’s Chromium project. They are effectively re-skins of it (simplifying a little). Examples include Brave, Vivaldi, Opera I believe.
Firefox is completely separate and independent from this ecosystem (which is also why there’s a separate extension store for Firefox).
The third and last major (>a couple % market share) engine is WebKit, which is the basis of Apple’s Safari.
There’s tons of cool stuff out there, but it’s either niche (platform/use case), unstable to use, and/or both. Examples: Servo, Ladybird, Orion
To sum it up, if you’re a normal, average user:
While on the topic, here’s some cool browser extensions:
Consent-O-Matic (auto-deny cookie banners)
StopTheMadness / StopTheMadness Pro (macOS only)
Bitwarden or the browser extension of another, different password manager you (hopefully) already use
YouTube-specific extensions, if you use the platform
(optional) Privacy-heavy focus. Caution: Having these extensions may lead to some sites breaking – they are not necessary for most people.
(optional) Dark Reader
Edit: fixed a link
TL;DR: Depends on what you mean.
Long version:
Disclaimer: I’m not an expert by any means, I haven’t vetted the links properly (or at all), they’re mostly there for illustration and if you want to read further. Also, the last time I actually read up on this is quite some years ago, so stuff may have changed in the industry and/or my memory on specifics is foggy. Many of the links lead to Tesla sources since I first looked into this topic back before Musk made it known to the public that he’s an insufferable human being.
Batteries are usually structurally integrated into the chassis with modern EVs, since that means space (and often small weight) savings, and is easier/faster to do in manufacturing.
With that knowledge, it is safe to assume that replacing a car’s battery is a difficult or next to impossible task, outside of end-of-life reuse.
But this is actually where it gets interesting, since EV batteries last many years anyways: What happens when the car’s time has come?
Well… the batteries can be reused. It’s not a trivial process, there’s several ways to do it, but the best intuitive explanation I’ve found is this: In raw ore, lithium and other metals are present at maybe 0.1 or 1%, per tonne of material. In batteries, it’s maybe 99% of reusable, expensive material. Even if you let it be 90 due to inefficiencies in recovery, or whatever, it’ll still make way more sense financially to work with old batteries – once you have the process figured out and automated machinery to get it done in place.
All that is assuming total destruction of the existing cells, which, depending on their state, may not even be necessary at all. In fact, it looks like all of that may not be needed for as much as >80% of batteries. Wow!
And we all know the best way to ensure companies are doing something is if the financial aspect aligns with their goals. It’s in their best self-interest to be able to and actually do this.
So: Replaceability per car – eh, doesn’t look to great. Replaceability across the industry? Perfect.
zshenv
’s selling point isn’t necessarily that your typical functions are available across scripts (though that can be neat, too – I source aliasrc
as well as an utils
script file in my shell config) – it’s that it’s there for non-interactive shells too, whereas zprofile
is only applied for login shells (and zshrc
only for interactive ones).
So for example, I could open a command in my editor of choice (Helix’s :sh
for me), and if I define stuff using the zshenv
, all of my aliases etc. are right there. I just have to avoid naming conflicts for script function names if it’s the default shell, but that’s pretty easily done.
Technically, she got more votes (edit due to being unclear: than Trump, in 2016). And not by a little, nearly 3 million people more voted for her over orange anti-republic anti-democracy man. But the voting system is unrepresentative, so it didn’t matter.
Yes, it does, if they have full access to the disassembled hardware and assuming research time & resources they could do practically anything. Such as emulating the Secure Enclave chip with a “fraudulent” version, changing all firmware running on any semiconductors in the phone, isolating storage, I don’t know the details, but let your imagination loose.
Physical, uninterrupted access is unlikely, yet bad news for anyone’s threat model.
*Enough paying users
Look into Helix :D
It’s missing plugins… but aside from that, as of now, it’s about as configurationless as it can get.
I just have some extra keys mapped and that’s it. Single <30 line config file.
It might be nice and all that (I wouldn’t know), but it’s not a sub- nor superset of glorious POSIX
You’re not seriously citing Stallman as someone who should be defended, are you?

ECMAScript would like to have a word with you.
If however by “doesn’t have any standards” you meant it’s willing to sink to new low grounds every day, you would be correct.
