What if I told you that most Web3 apps are centralized and rely on proprietary clouds like AWS? In this article, we explore the underlying technical challenges and a path forward toward fully decentralized Web.
What would they have to do if they were to decide that the deal is more important than the UK?
- merge everywhere else but the UK (presumably that would mean spinning off/closing one of Microsoft or Activision UK branch). I guess that wouldn't be enough?
I think this won’t work because Chrome doesn’t have independent business model. Also, if Chrome is removed from Google they could create another alternative based on Chromium since it’s open source.
Wut? Independent browsers existed before Google, and still do.
The browser is such a key element of the web experience that the possibilities for commercial exploitation are fundamentally endless; the number of players in the space is kept low only by the amount of resources required to really compete with the biggest IT companies on the planet. If you could forbid such players from being in the market, you'd see a plethora of new entrants.
> if Chrome is removed from Google they could create another alternative based on Chromium
The point is not to remove Chrome, the point is to forbid web-giants like Google from being in the browser market, because it enables monopolistic practices towards their web properties. So they would obviously be forbidden from restarting the project as "ReChrome" or whatever.
I just can understand people creating non HiDPI displays in 2021. It’s just beyond me that someone is making laptops with display much worse than my 2012 MBP Retina.

Because they still sell.
Back around 2 decades ago, we had a funny thing in Russia where people demanded 640x480 monitors back, and even bought, and sold them on premium because new 1024x768 monitors "make everything so tiny!"
Totally agree with you. I use my MBP mostly on native resolution if my screen gets really crowded and on the other hand it's nice when you're doing creative work and can switch to a downscaled image with so much more "smoothness" and details. I like the specs of this Pangolin notebook, but as soon as i saw 1080p i was gone.
I've no use for a hidpi display. I've a use for lower power usage though. If I don't care about power usage, I'll be using a desktop anyway. Plus the price is probably pretty different. I know decent external budget 4k monitors are non existant.
I think those factors would be racist explanations, so to speak – saying "it's not that insurance costs more in Black neighborhoods, it's just that Black neighborhoods have lower employment rates" only shifts the narrative of racism.
