Theoretically, yes Although that's a different kind of "movement", as well as a different kind of particle. But I get your meaning.

It would be a scorched earth tactic, but not a Pyrrhic one, as you wouldn't lose anything by it. In fact, you'd win..

"kill all the children" wasn't a principle, but a natural extension of you placing victory above principles.

Principles are more important than winning. Would you kill all children on Earth if it'd let you win?

Find out your principles first,then stick to them. Otherwise you're a hypocrite. Lets say you are totally against women, then you'd be a hypocrite if you don't diss your own existence (your mother, if you don't get it). There's such a thing as scope. Be specific and more detailed.

I haven't watched Eurovision since Lordi won. In fact, I haven't even had a TV since people were afeared of the Y2K bug.

Thanks to my cynical nature, I've learned to stay away from reboots, remakes, and remasters, through observation. Like Pharaoh, Startopia, Diablo 2 Resurrected, WarCraft 3 Reforged, and I'm sure you can find some more here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_game_remakes_and_remastered_ports?useskin=vector

The problem there are the legislations surrounding alternatives. Even supposedely eco-friendly ones. Here you have to ask permission for building it, then be required to sell left-over electrity to the energy companies. So they know you have it, and you can't future-proof it. They'll also tax it. It's a good plan if done ..subtly.. though.

Now that I've seen the clip, and not just a pic, I do agree it's entirely the bikers fault.

The cat most, but you can't control or expect a sentient creature to comprehend sapient rules. The biker second, because he's too close to the car in front. The car last (maybe he was going too fast..)

Keep on as they are. DNS blocking and MV3 compliant "declarativeNetRequest" instead of "webrequest". Almost every other browser will be similarly affected, so it'll be "par for the course/just the way it is".. sadly.

Awesome City-Builder. Played the heck out of it back in the day.

Opera is Chinese owned and backed by the CCP, plus it's Closed Source and spies on you. Arc is a MacOS chromium browser firstly.. Besides, like I said, hard forking a google chromium browser isn't going to go down well, at all. Cries of "obsolete", and "unsecure" will abound. They'd also still be reliant on google web extensions.. Rooting out google from browsers today would mean breaking up all their internet related avenues. Ads, fonts, analytics, tag manager, web rtc, webgl, web extensions, web assembly, web components, widewine, safe browsing, irregexp, geo location, Skia, search, android, and chromium.

They could stay on an old version of google chromium and do a hard fork. However, that would bring out cries of "old browser, out of date" by its nay-sayers. They could also switch browser "engine" (not back to their original firefox one, since that will also be affected by MV3), but there's not much competition there.. FF is basically chromium-lite today. There is Pale Moon and Basilisk though. Powered by Goanna, instead of Gecko (firefox) or blink (chromium). There's also Web Kit (Safari), but it's what blink (chromium) forked off of..

Brave is a google chromium soft fork browser. Their built-in adblocker works through both DNS blocking and MV2 WebRequest blocking elements. Neither will work when they update to MV3.

Different "levels" of Rights. They have Human Rights, which should be sensible and basic. They shouldn't have Citizens Rights.

Isn't that circular logic? Like "the bible says god exists. god exists because he wrote the bible."?

Not really, sadly. google is going at this whole their-internet-ads-everywhere by several routes. Neither DNS blockers like AdGuard or google MV3 compliant browser (google chromium & firefox and soft forks) extensions, google web extensions, will work because they can't block first party hosted ads. Things that are a part of the site itself. Embedded into it. google is also pushing their Shadow/DOM (and nested module/import functions) "standard" which will turn all sites into a single packet. One in which you can't modify individual elements, because the whole of the thing is the element.

Since smartphones are google android or walled garden & closed source apple, there's really no workaround on them. I don't use a smartphone personally. On Desktop you can use Pale Moon or Basilisk browser though. They use the superior UXP addons, evolved from XUL.
