   A while back I posted about my frustration with Chromium browsers trying to   
   force people into buying new computers by throwing a curveball to older GPUs   
   with the new "Accelerated Graphics" feature.   
      
   Now, just a few days after Election Day, Chrome released an update that fixed   
   the problem. I might be a little crazy but my BS detector is telling me that   
   they didn't want people with older computers to use internet until after the   
   elections.   
      
   This sounds dull and maybe even stupid, but the name of the game for the left   
   is "Control people." They had little incentive to fix the issue, but they also   
   had no excuse not to fix it. And, there was no reason to let it go unfixed for   
   as long as they did, other than to either 1) get people to buy new computers   
   or 2) get people to buy new GPUs or 3) get poor people to stay off the   
   internet for the past 6 months.   
      
   Chromium/Chrome/Google/Android: They are out to control us.
