   Yep ! EDGE or NOTHIN' !!!  :-)

   "Never heard" of Firefox ??? Bull. It's been around
   for longer than Chrome and a LOT longer than Edge.
   It's just a dodge for an inferior web page.

   Doesn't matter - they'll COMPEL people to use it. They
   have the clout ... and nobody, despite all the MS BS,
   rebels. They made everybody buy newer PCs for Win-11,
   a HUGE expense, and BET they repeat that for Win-12.
   MS has clearly bought-in to the main PC makers and
   PROFIT$ when new hardware is required. Nobody blinks
   an eye.

   (Western) govts HAVE A PROBLEM. Look up the fecundity
   rates. Even the USA is now below the pop replacement
   rate. I think Japan is worst off. "Success" means you
   don't have to have nine kids to support/defend you.

   BUT - 'welfare' states DEPEND on ripping-off future gens
   to support the bread and circuses for the CURRENT gens.
   To fail at that is political DISASTER (broader disaster,
   who cares so long as the pols are pop eh). Did you wonder
   why the US (and EU) are ignoring massive illegal immigration ?
   THAT is why. They need a whole new class of wage slaves to
   pay TAXES to float all the "free money" stuff.

   As for "going psycho" ... yea, it's a problem. The social/cultural
   disintegration was "in-progress" (usually with Chinese backing
   somewhere in there) but COVID lockdowns amplified the problem
   quite abruptly. Way too many people CAN'T COPE anymore and
   either go psycho or go Mad Max. Dunno if there's any real
   fix beyond hard-ass fascists - and that has a lot of issues
   as well.
