Yeah… I’m pretty sure the white space is part of the spec for a QR code.

I’m really curious if they can make video injection of ads cost effective.

It feels like mangeling video streams into one, potentially re-encoding the video as they go… sounds expensive

Oceania tends to refer to the region, including both Australia, New Zealand, Melanesia, Micronesia, and the many small island nations.

Sometimes, we are “collectivly” treated as a continent, despite being almost all island nations with no land boarders.

Expanse tight beams are on their way

I’ve had… thoughts on this lately.

I do social dance (wcs) as one of my several hobbies. And I kind of compare ot to church now. We go once a week, we do the thing, and we have a community around it, with community leaders.

The world might be slowly leaving religion behind, but I have to wonder of we’re losing something else in the process.

(Find some WCA classes in your area, we’re all weird as fuck, it’s a often a community of introverts with a niche interest in common, and set rules of interaction (would you like a dance?))

is it decades of hacky code, or decades of battle tested code?

I haven’t touched wordpress in… many years, but I’ve seen far too many developers look at old code and call it junk… only to break things horrifically when they attempt a rewrite.

Gotta ask yourself how Israel has hostages to exchange on “day 1” of “this” conflict

A port of a browser is relatively minimal effort. Typically, the changes are largely cosmetic, and occasionally skin deep.

There’s a reason none of the ports of Chrome caught the recent snafu with Google having its own special addon that fucks your privacy.

Developing a browser, Firefox or Chrome, takes a huge amount of effort, and are on a similar scale to both Windows and Linux. It’s a lot. There are a lot of places to hide things. Taking all of that, and making V2 continue to work… well it’ll be alright to start with. It’s probably a flag somewhere currently. But in 2 years time? 5 years time? It will take a lot to keep V2 working, let alone back porting V3 features that people may actually want.

Just use Firefox instead.

I mean, that argument starts to wade in to the Mozilla foundation as a whole, and what their purpose is, and that’s a giant kettle of fish.

Theoretical game. They lowball Google on how much Google pays them. How do people react? I don’t see them doing that and say, “Man, I’m glad Firefox is reducing Google’s influence over them”. I see them making a thread about how Firefox is giving Google a discounted rate because they’re all corrupt technofacists.

The core problem there still exists IMO. Funding.

What we really need is a reasonable way for open source, free, software, that exists for the good of the whole, to get money. But that has it’s own kettle of fish, where does it come from, how big is big enough to get some, what if they charge for support, how open is open enough.

Something something, seize the means of production, communism, etc.

Ok idealist.

What is your alternative funding stream for Mozilla?

It’s bad.

Is it worse than the advertising owned browser that gives your information directly to said advertiser?

DAM DAM?

ACDSee even shows thumbnails for Affinity Photo project files

You’re telling me there’s an image managing program out there, that works with Affinity, and for some reason people aren’t talking about it???

If they had library management even close to what lightroom offers, I’d be there.

I may yet jump ship for photoshop.

The same as what happened when vine shut down.

Take their follows as best as they can to another platform. Continue on.

I kind of hope gaben has set up something smart for his death. Eg Valve is owned by a trust.

I think it’s far more likely there’s some sales goal and or performance indicator at play here.

I’m really hoping for thermite. A lot of thermite.

It depends on how bright it is where you are.

When it’s very very dim your color sensing part of your eyes, which are less sensitive to light, don’t work. Only the black and white parts of your vision work.

Kind of.

Reminder: helldivers hasn’t yet been re-enabled in the countries it was restricted from.

Honestly, I think almost everything else is worse than Google.

I set my default to duck duck go, and it’s getting better, but I still fall back on google with some regularity
