A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I use firefox, because in the performance - privacy - price consideration it beats chrome.
I have a Nvidia graphics card, because being able to run CUDA applications at home beats AMD.
You don't have to do anything, but you're still encouraging this behavior no matter how you choose to look at it. If that doesn't bother you, then idk why you're even replying.
Simply to provide an alternative perspective.
I do choose the inferior product in some categories, so I don't disagree with the above comment in general.
