You are buried in a coffin 6ft deep, with no light or cell phone. There is only a small tube connected to the coffin from outside that allows you to breathe (edit: you can breathe with no difficulty). After 48 hours, you are dug up and given 1 million dollars. Do you do it?...
I would like to highlight Harry’s character development throughout the series. Although he made several questionable choices in GOF, OOF, and HBP, we should consider that he is a teenager throughout most of the series. Teenagers, umm, well, aren’t great decision-makers. As a teenager, I mostly acted mainly on impulse instead of rational thinking.
And talking about individuals defending themselves, not all perspectives find a receptive audience. A perfect example is in OOF, when Dumbledore testifies before the Minister of Magic about Voldemort’s return. His statements are met with scepticism and disbelief, mirroring a similar experience Harry had trying to convince others at Hogwarts.
If you want to share counter-examples, I’d be happy to hear them.
What’s it called when you’re nostalgic for a time you didn’t live through, like teenagers feeling nostalgic and “looking back” on i.e. the 80s or 90s?...
Fixed a bug where you would freak out for no reason. Anxiety levels now reduced by 50% - enjoy a smoother, calmer and more stable experience!
Upgraded memory capacity by 50%. Say goodbye to forgetting where you put your keys or that one relative who changed your diaper once. You’re welcome!
Removed those pesky ‘Remember that time you embarrassed yourself in front of everyone?’ pop ups. Time to move on, folks! No more cringe-filled flashbacks from now on.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Human OS and also a huge thanks to our contributors.
edited the heading of the question. I think most of us here are reasoning why more people are not using firefox (because it was the initial question), but none of that explains why it’s actively losing marketshare....
Firefox being slow has almost nothing to do with Mozilla’s incompetence or the browser’s inability to handle websites.
When devs build websites, they usually build them for the most popular browser, aka Chrome. They couldn’t be bothered to help the minority of people who use Firefox. Also, cost. Building a website to work with 2 different engines is more expensive than building it for just one engine that’ll work for 99% of users. That’s why a lot of banking websites never support FF.
Another primary reason is Google’s Monopoly. Almost everyone uses some Google service or another. Google’s websites are tailored to perfectly fit Chromium, not FF. This is why you’ll sometimes see websites break or even crash. YouTube’s recent ambient mode made the site choke quite a lot on FF. An average Joe ain’t got the knowledge to know or even troubleshoot the issue and they’ll just shift to Chromium, where everything just works.

The person who solved the Poincaré conjecture was Russian mathematician, Grigori Perelman who declined the prize as it was not also offered to Richard S. Hamilton, upon whose work he had built.

Would you be buried alive for 48hr for a million dollars?

Downvote me all you want, but I have to complain. Most bad things in the series would never happen— especially to Harry— if people just talked, explained, or defended themselves like human beings.
And it really irks me a lot....
