Resident here, it's great. EPB is the power company and internet provider. They run fiber anywhere they run power. They also have good customer service, local knowledgeable phone support, and inexpensive support services like installing ethernet drops for $50 each.
At this point, I’m just waiting for someone to implement a CSS-only browser inside this CSS-only Doom, so we can achieve full recursive insanity. The 'Can it run Doom?' meme has officially transcended hardware and entered the realm of pure Turing-complete masochism.
Within a week they would have a rocket prototype where you can plug in a mouse and keyboard and play doom on the exhaust flames by mixing different fuel chemicals.
The Suica app doesn't even work on my Pixel 10 Pro, since it requires an Android phone with some sort of Japan-specific hardware (FeliCa/Osaifu-Keitai technology, whatever that is, I'm assuming some special NFC or secure enclave sort of thing).
Opera 10 was getting into some wild stuff. 9 was obviously just winning. But I loved how 10 literally gave you the user your own endpoints on the web. The browser is the server (by way of proxy)! Massively inspirational decentralization. https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/opera-unite.html
* They came with a mail and chat (IRC) clients, a download manager, a set of browser dev tools, and in the age of limited internet traffic all of that was smaller than a single download of Firefox.
* Their dev tools were the first that allowed remote debugging. You could run Opera on your phone (Symbian, Windows Mobile, early Android) and debug your website from a computer.
* They were the first browser to sync your bookmarks, settings, history, extensions across devices.
* They were the first to add process isolation, albeit initially on Linux only. If an extension crashed your page it didn't take the whole browser down with it. This was later added first by Microsoft in IE8 and then by Google in Chrome.
Their browser was a brilliant piece of tech and a brilliant product. Too bad that the product couldn't survive under pressure.
I've been writing HTML for at least 20 years professionally and this has absolutely not been my experience. Yes, I've encountered some people using divs for everything but in the vast majority of cases people have used semantically correct HTML, at least when it comes to buttons.

I dunno; ISTR that the materializecss library used `<a>` for buttons.
"use strict" has been around since 2009. That being said, this is not a TypeScript or React feature but yet another black box magic NextJS feature to try to lock you into the Vercel ecosystem.
