Ice_Blue Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 From the article: If you're reading this web page using Chrome or Safari, beware: you are probably angering the universe. There is reason to believe, you see, that the universe -- the collection of all the planets, stars, galaxies, matter, and energy that have ever existed, and the sum total of all that we do and will know -- is actually partial to Mozilla products. Which means that there is reason to believe that the universe would really prefer, as you browse the web that connects our tiny little world, that you use Firefox.I kid, I kid!

It's cloud-watching made, literally, universal. Read more at The Atlantic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
