It's the TIL community, not "This is super interesting". You probably wandered in from the All feed, which is fine, but please do keep in mind the community you are commenting in.

Same for me. Started watching youtube videos in firefox with ublock origin, works perfectly fine.
On a side note, Smart Youtube for Android tv still works perfectly fine.
And a Russian asset?
It's stated in the synopsis, below where it says you need to pay for the article. Anyway, it might be true as the hosting servers themselves often host up to hundreds of Windows machines. But it really depends on what is measured and the method used, which we don't know because who the hell has a statista account anyway.
Marginal? You must be joking. A vast amount of servers run on Windows Server. Where I work alone we have several hundred and many companies have a similar setup. Statista put the Windows Server OS market share over 70% in 2019. While I find it hard to believe it would be that high, it does clearly indicate it's most certainly not a marginal percentage.
Feel free to start a competitive game store. There's a reason why gog, origin or epic hardly make a dent on Valves bottom line.

I never had issues with Amazon support. To be fair, the last time I needed support was over 4 years ago, but still. I got to chat with some real person relatively quickly who managed to address the issue swiftly.
I have 4 cats and I handle them all without getting scratched while trimming their nails. There is one cat that will bite the nail scissors, she is tricky to handle because of that. When she catches a finger between the nail scissors and her teeth, she bites full force and that does not make a pleasant experience. I tried burritoing her, but it's just easier to have her on her back and using sleight of hand to distract her.
Volkswagens EV platform is a mess because the CEO responsible for the pivot to EV within VW, was only allowed to implement it if he stopped being the CEO. So the next guy half assed the 80B$ pivot to EV, leading to VW being one of the worst performers amongst EV producing OEMs.
So now they are on the market to buy whatever is needed to get them out of the hot mess they created themselves.
I used to like mac OS when I used it on a macbook as a daily driver, years ago (haven't owned a mac in a decade now). But recently I helped my mom set up a new macbook and I found it unwield.
I'm also with you on the Ubuntu and gnome front, although a buddy of mine swears with it. I just don't like it. Not sure why, I have tried to work with Ubuntu + GNOME several times and I always end up switching to a different build.
Man, I read those books ages ago. Tbh can't remember much. Did that series get finished?
