The misuse of this meme is one of my biggest meme pet peeves. Have people forgotten that in that scene, his vision is clear when he's not wearing glasses? So the meme should be the other way around.

Like many memes, this one exists outside of the original oeuvre (movie, painting, etc). For instance, I have not see the movie it comes from, it wouldn't makes sense to me if it was the other way around.

Honestly, my biggest fear if Apple ever allows other browser engines on iOS is that developers will stop testing on anything other than Chrome. And they will tell iPhone users to "just download Chrome."

I've already heard so many places tell people not to use Firefox or Safari to access their website. It's IE 6 all over again. I hate Chrome and refuse to use it.

They'll pry Firefox from my cold dead hands.

Real men telnet to the web server and manually type GET commands and read the raw HTML.

[–] Spacemanspliff@midwest.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pft you still have to read the HTML? I just stick a fiberoptic in my ass and download it rectally.

[–] MoreIronOre@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Guess you have enough fiber in your diet.

Chromium, privacy chromium, corporate chromium, spyware chromium, there’s so much diversity! /s

Firefox is the best. There is only Firefox.

I feel like we've seen this before..

[–] AnonymousLlama@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Least we're got support for more fancy CSS properties nowdays, that's something I guess

[–] photodiode@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

And Chromium renders transparent PNGs properly. That's also something, I guess.

[–] pressanykeynow@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

The biggest difference is that Chromium is an open source project.

[–] terribleplan@lemmy.nrd.li 2 points 2 years ago

Lol.

Ah... the first repost I've seen on the threadiverse thus far. I hope this doesn't become a trend.

Bring back Netscape! Actually I would take the old Opera. That was my browser of choice prior to the chrome integration.

[–] Melody@lemmy.one 3 points 2 years ago

Netscape IS Firefox.

Yeah, ain't this the truth. Firefox and safari are the only browsers that arent chromium based. We must protect Firefox at all coats! Without it, Google would have a monopoly on the browser space... a world I would not like to live in.

[–] pingveno@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

And even Safari is a Chrome predecessor (roughly KHTML -> WebKit -> Blink).

[–] Yewb@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Where is Netscape!

[–] GenBlob@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Nothing is worse than seeing chromium-based browser users fight other chromium-based browser users. You are all using the same fucking thing!

[–] codenul@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Recently switched over to mull browser. Fork of the Firefox browser, works great so far. Also if you are unsure of the security of your browser, could use the website, browseraudit.com, that rates your current browsers. Runs 100+ against several tests and reports back.

[–] mrcarrot@lemmy.calebmharper.com 1 points 2 years ago

iOS be like: they're all safari

[–] BrooklynMan@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

or, as i call it: Spyware Safari
