To be honest, I have not used this on desktop, but it's the default on mobile.

Not OP but one thing I am missing, especially in mobile, is grouping tabs.

Chrome auto groups your tabs, so if I open 5 Amazon links looking for something they are already sorted.

For some reason Firefox doesn't seem to get this feature

You disagree with my statement that is not actually contradicted by anything in your statement, apart from your open acceptance of flawed studies?

Because your statement offers no viable alternative and basically condemns following scientific literature unless you are a trained professional on the grounds that some studies might be flawed.

Which is what I tried to point out in both of my prior comments to no avail.

My question then is this: what do they teach kids to allow them to spot flaws and what do they teach them as the method for determining who is reputable? Beyes theorem? How to control for multiple variables? I don't actually know whether they go into this or tell kids to JUST trust an authority.

That question is impossible to answer. Even if we were only talking about the US, but much less globally. What we can agree on is that it's probably not enough in most places.

Flawed studies have done all kinds of harm over the years before being retracted. Linking vaccines to autism for one.

And the attitude of "one study has been flawed so I won't trust science ever again" is something that you predict to be a better viable alternative?

If the study has major flaws it's relatively easy to spot if you have an idea what to look for. You don't need special education for that.

It's not even a problem if you consider reputable sources in the first place, which, again, is relatively easy to do.

Looking at the alternative, even a flawed study is better than a simple opinion piece.

So yeah, I disagree with everything you said basically.

It's still better than relying on literally anything else. Doesn't have to be perfect.

Also dist upgrades. There's always some shit package that's breaking at probably a dependency for some others

I think most countries actually do both.

It can be both punitive and reformative.

HTTPS does enforce at least one sided authentication though. In the scenario the service they access is most likely being hosted by a server that does authenticate via X.509 cert.

Unless it's p2p of course.

I don't know what you do exactly, but I appreciate every single volunteer and the work they put in to make everyone's life better

No, it's rules like "homosexual content is harmful to kids so it will be banned".

That would suck

And adults couldn't possibly like strawberry. That MUST be about addicting kids

It's just easier to get kids addicted. That's why they need special protection.

Not a blanket ban, just the likely result

Honestly, not the worst outcome. Social media appears to do more harm than good, especially for kids.

That's great but the initial statement was very ignorant
