Accessing the link from Denmark just takes me to a generic google products landing page with no mention of a Google Pixel Bud.

Found this page https://store.google.com/us/product/pixel_buds which links specifically to the US store where I can see the price (for the US) and specs.

Very OT, but I can't wait for this web design fad to go away, where every element is animated and stuff flies around and fades in from every direction. It's like 90's GeoCities, but with more whitespace.

Also, I have a Radeon 5700XT GPU, and scrolling is somehow still choppy.

I don’t think it’s going away. A better question might be why are browsers still so slow that it can actually be slowed down by pictures and dom elements triggering re-layouts, or scrollling, or animations?

Maybe let’s just give up on browser apis and start building websites with DirectX/OpenGL.

I’ve seen amazing UIs in a lot of pc games that do all sorts of interesting things with the UI, and I’ve rarely seen those UIs have jank, or stutter.

Yes this is a better link for those of us who aren't accessing the web from a US IP address. Thanks.
