Chrome or Edge Browser? Which is Better?

by KateWild in

so i finally am on windows 10. my computer kept asking me and i kept refusing, but then it went to a countdown and before i had a chance to stop it, it was updating, and i couldn't use my laptop for the full 1000 year reign of jesus christ.. when i finally could use it, i had a problem opening chrome with all my favourite apps or pages stored.

sometimes i have to open edge for for chrome to open.

but i have had a little go a edge.. edge has a different search engine to google, anyone know what it is?

You're friend has given you some rubbish advise I am afraid - the SSD one will be around 10-20 times faster. I would strongly advise you to take it back and exchange it. It is THAT much better.

Over time your non-SSD drive will become "fragmented", this means it will get slower and slower, in a few years it will be so slow you will assume you need a new computer. You can keep the same speed from day 1 with an SSD.

Macs also work out cheaper overall, I have a 2008 MacBook Pro that is as quick as the day I got it and never had a problem, runs on the latest software too. My workhorse Mac Pro machine at work that gets 40-60 use a week is 9 years old, and again, as good as the day I bought it.

Both have been upgraded to SSDs, by the way, which made them 10-20 times faster.

Google is pretty shitty when it comes to privacy too... go Firefox or Chromium if you are concerned about that

What Anders Andersen is not correct about Edge.

Edge is pretty much, pragmatically speaking, standards compliant, s/he is confusing Edge with Internet Explorer - which was not standards compliant and was a giant mess to develop for.

Muslim Shopkeeper Murdered for Wishing Friends a Happy Easter on Twitter

by cofty in

horrible crime in glasgow on thursday evening when a well loved muslim shop keeper asad shah was stabbed to death by at least one other muslim man.

mohammad faisal, a family friend, said a bearded muslim wearing a long religious robe entered mr shah’s shop and spoke to him in his native language before stabbing him in the head with a kitchen knife.. mr shah had posted the twitter message ‘good friday and a very happy easter, especially to my beloved christian nation’.

residents of shawlands in glasgow say he was well respected and had been known to hand out christmas cards to neighbours despite being of a different faith.. hundreds have turned out in a vigil near the crime scene....

*yawn* more bigotry, standard on this forum these days though

Islam is not a monolith. But the Koran does specifically encourage believers to commit acts of violence and murder in the name of Allah. I understand not all Muslims condone violence. But peaceful Muslims don't get to say terrorists are "not real Muslims" when they carry out the very acts encouraged by their holy book.

Christianity is not a monolith. But the Old Testament does specifically encourage believers to commit acts of violence and murder in the name of YHWH. I understand not all Christians condone violence. But peaceful Christians don't get to say terrorists are "not real Christians" when they carry out the very acts encouraged by their holy book.

Does anyone pray and if so to who?

by duc007az in

it's been years since i've prayed and the last one i prayed to was the god known as jehovah.

just wondering.

I pray to Darren, King of the Fish People.

He is the true God, as shown by this manuscript.

And if you are thinking "that is made up", then simply read this other manuscript that proves it isn't.

Most of the time Darren does not answer my prayers, but I know he hears them.

Sometimes he does though.

Why, the other month I had no money, and I prayed "O Darren, King of all the Fish people, please give me money for sustenance and that new PlayStation game I want to pre-order" and THE VERY NEXT DAY I received in my bank account a sum of money that was not only enough to cover these things, it was also the EXACT same amount as my employer pays me each month in wages.

Jesus is not Michael the Archangel here is why

by paradisebeauty in

one of the biggest missunderstanding and unbiblical teaching of the jw's is that jesus is michael the archangel.

here is what proffessor anthony buzzard has to say about this:.

Arguing about this is like arguing over what age Peter Pan was when he defeated Captain Hook, and was Hook really eaten by a crocodile.

The Assyrian started to attack from Australia

by opusdei1972 in

the gb has been preparing the flock for the assyrian's attack, that now is starting from australia:.

elders, you can learn some helpful lessons from what we have just discussed: (1) the best thing you can do to prepare for the future attack of the assyrian is to strengthen your faith in god and help your brothers to do the same.

(2) when the assyrian attacks, you must be completely convinced that jehovah will save us.

McKinney Texas pool party?

by Marvin Shilmer in

so today i was asked my thoughts on the pool party incident in mcminney, texas.

my response: it shows a clash of expectations.

i saw police officers who expected citizens to listen to and follow instructions.

Surely you agree that an officer does have the authority to physically restrain, using appropriate force, a non-complying citizen.

Depends on the circumstance, in this case

1) The child had done nothing that required physical force, let alone assault, body slamming and handcuffs, yea maybe for an armed robber? For this - madness

2) Depends what the non-compliance is for, if the officer is being unreasonable or telling someone to do something they have no obligation to do, then no, I don't think the office should be laying a finger on them and should get on with their job - it then becomes harassment

Sorry, I didn't see your 2nd question, I wasn't evading:

Should US citizens show respect for US authorities and comply with orders?

Again it depends what the order is, if it's reasonable and in public interest, sure, if it's an officer on a power trip - no. I say again, police are public servants, not god figures that can tell people to do whatever they feel like and expect them to do it, *just because* they are police. Police are there to serve, protect and uphold the law, not be beyond it.

Respect should be shown if it is earned, wearing a police badge does not give anyone the right to respect, their actions show if they deserve it or not. Office Rambo deserves zero respect, the man is nothing more than a thug, who happens to be wearing a uniform.

Not in the USofA

I did google what I stated before posting, and from reputable sources and Wikipedia from that I could make out that was the case. But I don't live there, so I fully admit that I have no great knowledge of the system.

Regardless of the laws, from the perspective of a human being, It is completely f***ed up that an officer can assault and handcuff a young girl for pretty much nothing though, and that be fine because "he has authority". I say again, the USA is an Orwellian, totalitarian police state.
