Some Chinese EVs copy the style of fancy cars. For example the Xiaomi EV practically ripped off a Porsche.

Original, high quality designs require high development costs. Also a good design should consider the functionality as well, such as aerodynamics specific to the power and handling of the vehicle. Weight distribution etc.

Edit: not an expert at all, just my guess and observations

Sorry for AI but I couldn't find it by just googling:

Yes, Firefox did have an in-house developed "Tab Center" — it was an experimental feature created by Mozilla as part of their Test Pilot programme around 2016–2017.

🧪 Mozilla's Original "Tab Center" Name: Tab Center

Status: Experimental Test Pilot feature (now discontinued)

Timeframe: Circa 2016–2017

Purpose: To explore the usability of vertical tabs on the left side of the browser, instead of the traditional horizontal layout.

🔍 Key Features Displayed open tabs vertically in a sidebar.

Showed a more spacious, scrollable list of tabs.

Included favicons and tab titles — easier to manage lots of tabs.

Supported mouse gestures like tab pinning and closing.

Looked and felt very similar to Edge’s modern vertical tabs.

Many years ago they had an offical extension called "Tab Center", it had been in "labs" for some time. When it finished testing (it worked well), Mozilla decided to drop it instead of deploying it in Firefox. It wasn't even in low priority.

It took them many years and they finally implemented vertical tabs in 2024.

Pretty accurate except for "we must focus on the browser", I've never seen/heard them doing that.

I still remember when they cancelled vertical tabs after successful testing.

No offense. But I'm completely going to offend you.

What exactly does the nesting system do?

 

Apple’s AI rollout has been rocky, from Siri delays to underwhelming Apple Intelligence features. WSJ’s Joanna Stern sits down with software chief Craig Federighi and marketing head Greg Joswiak at WWDC 2025 in Cupertino to talk about the future of AI at Apple—and what the heck happened to that smarter Siri.

I emotionally withdraw myself from the politics. I do read the headlines and summaries but usually skip details that might upset myself.

Trump, Musk, Putin and Xi getting deserved karma. (unlikely to happen but wishful thinking).

YouTube isn’t a necessity — and neither is the internet, really. We don’t need them to survive. That said, I do enjoy YouTube as a form of entertainment. I’ve tried alternatives like NewPipe and Invidious, but none of them work as smoothly as YouTube with ad blockers.

 

Remember when Google introduced text-only ads to replace flashing animated banners and pop-up ads popular at the time? I didn't mind those and I didn't need an adblocker.

Nowadays YouTube is the primary reason I have to use an adblocker. It is literally unusable with all the ads.
