Maybe take your irony detector to the repair shop, I think it may be faulty

And still they're miles apart on the evil axis. That they're both on the wrong side of neutral doesn't make them the same. Vote to keep the fascist out and then fight zionism afterwards

Chrome got popular at introduction because it was much faster at loading and displaying websites. Sure, there was a marketing push by Google, but it succeeded on the products merits and not some unfair business advantage. It still is a great browser.

We do need antitrust protections but not always because consumers are getting a bad product. It's more about the balance of power. Maybe their products are good now, or their business practices are fair now to other market actors, but you never know when that will change and then it's too late. It's like you need safeguards against autocracy also when they're genuinely doing good job of running the country, because it's never worth it in the long run when they inevitably start doing nasty shit

Not sure what you mean. Blinding headlights is definitely worse in the last two decades

Lighting is the determining factor? I think the real problem is speed. With kids coming out of nowhere, people need to drive slower. With some regular low beams you should see plenty, no need to light up the whole neighborhood
