Why put ransomeware on a wrench?

For leverage

Zoidberg isn't either, his PhD is in art history

he later states in "The Duh-Vinci Code" that his PhD is in art history (as opposed to medicine).[7]

So is their 65 inch https://www.sceptre.com/TV/4K-UHD-TV/U650CV-UMRD-65-4K-UHD-TV-product1171category1category73.html

Still happy with it after a year. Recommend getting a soundbar though

Can confirm Sceptre 65" Class 4K UHD LED TV HDR U650CV-U is a solid dumb TV

Have owned this for 15 months and am very pleased with it as a screen. Do strongly recommend using a soundbar or other solution for audio.

I did get this from walmart for $432 (about $200 cheaper than amazon link) https://www.walmart.com/ip/Sceptre-65-Class-4K-UHD-LED-TV-HDR-U650CV-U/48874705

I can see using snaps when the alternative is to break things. But mozilla team is already packaging as .deb for ubuntu available through the mozillateam ppa.

This seems to be canonical arbitrarily injecting the snap store as a dependency for firefox with no clear benefit and noticeable performance issues

To avoid them for your personal needs, no they’re not hard to avoid. Just don’t install anything yourself via Snap. Use apt, Flatpak instead. Or any other means.

Not entirely accurate. Some apt packages like firefox and chromium just install the corresponding snap.

Snap has it's use cases, but it should not be a silent substitute for .debs
