I for one have been in denial and probably won't switch away until it literally stops working. So, there's hope.

The word "just" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in your edit. The replacement for that dependency doesn't allow an extension to work as an ad blocker as effectively as the thing they are deprecating. This is deliberate.

I call that following the same successful recipe that got us the Falcon 9.

The mindset that considers those tests failures is the same one that would still be in bureaucracy hell determining what 40 year old technology we should repurpose to get a future over budget, late, and under performing solution designed and built.

Fuel cells don't burn the hydrogen. There is no combustion.

I'm assuming the original post you replied to was meant to be a joke, since, like you pointed out, many or most people use RSA. I assume (using Occam's Razor) that is more likely than them not knowing that and intending their post at face value.

Woosh? (Probably)

They didn't mean the backdoor was (or was not) an accident. They meant the backdoor was implemented sloppily enough to be discovered and maybe that was not an accident (as in, he wanted it to be found, but still wanted to plausibly be seen as trying his best to keep those coercing him appeased)

In all my cases where I installed those, I got lucky and the GFCI protection is upstream in another outlet somewhere.

After realizing both shavers and cordless toothbrush chargers are going this route, I gave in and installed these in the bathroom

But how is that a criticism of the Mac mini? All it does is give you purchasing flexibility (eg if you already own Apple kbd/mouse). It is like you are implicitly arguing that they should raise the price and include those components. But that would be bad for some consumers that already have those items and would help nobody because you can already buy those separately.

I'm not sure that conclusion follows. There are many more potential future users than there are current users.

Your first sentence suggests you're disagreeing, but nothing you said after that is incompatible with anything gp said.
