So basically, Google realized they fucked up by tightly integrating their browser with their OS, and now they're doing what they should've done in the first place by uncoupling them.

It'd be badass if someone used this opportunity to make a ChromeOS fork based around Firefox.

Here's hoping that they don't.

So in other words, we still don't know yet.

"Them" being Threads or Kbin?

So, is kbin.social not defederating from Threads then? I'll be really disappointed if that's the case.

I'm a Linux user, but I like having control over my own hardware, and I don't want my next PC to be an underpowered thin client designed only to work with a commercial cloud OS. I hope this doesn't take off any time soon.

I actually had no idea EVGA made motherboards at all until I saw this. Last thing I bought from them was a power supply many years ago. Whatever the case, it sounds like this has been debunked.

Sounds like it was. From the article:

Update 07:45 UTC: We've heard from workers at EVGA Spain "it's just another day at the office". So maybe it was only Kingpin/the OC team in TW that has resigned, or the whole story is completely untrue.

Update 16:41 UTC: We just received the following statement from EVGA:

We saw those message and they are rumors.
Our Taiwan office is still operating and Kingpin is still with EVGA.
EVGA is still doing business and supporting its customers.
Thanks for reaching out

I'm surprised the number isn't higher than that tbh.

As they say, there's nothing more permanent than a temporary fix.

I'm OK with them. There's definitely such a thing as overusing them, but I think they can be useful for conveying tone.

Agreed. I was hoping Reddit's in-joke culture wouldn't make it here. sigh
