These things go in cycles. But I think the writing is on the wall. Google will never make the investment to unbloat Chrome.

I would say it's good, but could be great with small adjustments in the way it is packaged.

I was mainly referring to how sluggish it was. For my web apps, it was always slower and the UI would bog down. Maybe not the correct definition of you refer to unnecessary features.

I am more referring to how lean or streamline the software is. Both in front end design and backend.

A lot of browser performance has to do with how you use it, so my experience is not universal.

Still, even full fat Firefox is skinny compared to the morbidly obese Chrome and edge browsers.

I made the switch to waterfox (Firefox fork) that strips out much of the problematic mozilla stuff.

I started to switch because of the tab containers, as I work across a dozen or so accounts in our MSP business.

Now I realised how good Firefox can be if you get rid of the bloat.

How can we help them do it?

Technically it is true. Counties are so gerrymandered to hell, there is no way the GOP got as many seats as it had.

Tell me how Islam is slavery, without telling me Islam is slavery.

Normal human time scale. The projectiles have jump drives. When a object jumps it retains its momentum.

So basically they have these projectiles traveling at 30% of light, with the ability to jump into position to strike a target.

I think the Israeli government has decided that the prisoners are of no value to them. It disempowers Hamas, so they will be less likely to take prisoners in the future.

The Israeli government will only accept two outcomes at the moment. Destruction of all organized Hamas resistance or unconditional surrender of the hostages. Hama will not do the latter, so they are doomed to suffer the former.

I tend to form my opinions by the words and actions of the organization.

Do not misunderstand my criticism of Hamas, as professing the innocence of the Israeli government. Their actions are reckless and results in large numbers of unnecessary deaths. They are likely pressed for time as the international sentiment turns against those who support them.

But you cannot grade them on the same level. The one is a semi democratic authoritarian regime that oppresses those sympathetic to the Palestinian cause, so they can continue to exploit the Palestinians for economic gain of the elite.

The other is an authoritarian regime who killed and expelled it's political opponents when they became unpopular and are living comfortably in Qatar on billions in western aid money they stole from the Palistinians. Meanwhile the ranks of Hamas is filled with religious extremists that believe killing innocents will get them into a fictional heaven.

The first group you can negotiate with, the second group you have no option but to kill them, before they kill you.

You also cannot limit this conflict to just the immediate region, the role of Iran, Qatar, the USA and the Saudi's can not be ignored. They are using this region either as a proxy war, or to funnel aid and arms money for their own corrupt gain.

The situation sucks for the Palistinians. The west barely cares for them, and the middle east even less.

This is some weird form of minesweeper you are playing
