Back in 2009-2010 I bought an entry level 13" MacBook Pro because it was fairly competitively priced compared to other options with similar specs, but the MBP had by far the better battery life, display quality, touchpad, and probably keyboard. It was easily worth the upcharge for those factors, so no real Apple Tax.

It's pretty niche, but https://alternativess.com (sport archery retailer)

It can be done, but then whoever forks that will need to stay on top of keeping that fork up to date with other changes in the original chromium, and that gets harder and harder to do as time goes on and more changes are made to the same or related parts of the codebase.

Yup, the arugula/balsamic combo is the same way I've enjoyed pear pizza. Delicious.

Pear works well on white pizza

MySQL was acquired by Sun Microsystems, which was also the original developer of Java. Oracle acquired Sun. So I'd say any niceness there is in spite of, not because of, Oracle.

Also... Java's still pretty nice :-)

Seconded, I have the same bag and love it. I added a wandrd tech bag and accessory straps and it works great for an overnight, day trip, or light hiking bag with a bunch of photo gear.

Somewhat similar to Michelin Stars for restaurants, and Michelin the tire brand. The tire company started curating the list of notable restaurants to visit as a way to encourage people to drive more.

Become a Red Hat employee and you get one for free.

Pretty sure the CX-3 is actually a Mazda 2, and the Mazda CX-5 is on the same platform as the 3, just enlarged a bit.
