Opera was so fully packed with features. I started from Opera 2 or 3 from what I recall and stayed until they became Chrome. No other browser came close in features while being fast.
They had lots of cool featues built in:
IRC Client
Email Client
RSS Reader
Note taking (I used it a lot)
Gestures (those were awesome, I fondly remember holding left then right click and the other way around to move back and forward, but these proved to be a sign of Operas decline, some bugs with them were never fixed while we kept getting newe releases, (remember the potato ad?))
Sharing local files as a website right from your browser
They invented tabs
They might have had torrent support too, don't remember clearly.
It was fast even with all this.
Vivaldi's UI is built in JS, it feels slow, all my clicks are slow. I never got myself to using it more than a few minutes.
These are not improvements, its not even a good bait. I don't care about their stupid taskbar anymore. I 100% believe that any improvements they are promising will be so tiny it won't matter.
Can Karpathy's autoresearch be used on this to explore what works and what does not? That is supposed to automate research like this from what I understand.
There should be an "Examples" section in projects like this one to show what has actually been made using it. I scrolled to the end and was really expecting an example the way it's being advertised.
If it was game engine or new web framework for example there would be demos or example projects linked somewhere.
Lots of earbuds have transparency mode. I have Earfun Air Pro 4+ (which were big too big for my ears). They sound very good and have really good transparency mode. The company keeps releasing firmware updates every now and then.
Also got a nothing Ear. They are very comfy, and have very good sound. But transparency mode in those is awful. Other things are bad too.
The later versions of Nothing headphones/buds got pretty good.
I actually have their budget brand CMF Buds 2 plus and they are straight up great even before you consider the price. Pretty good headphones are commodity now, everybody makes them. Apple is just winning the branding game.
