…unless its very obscure stuff.

That’s primarily why you’d be ripping stuff. There is so much stuff only available on VHS and DVD.

I do not need reasons, I need ways.

I grew up during thr Roger Moore era but watched all the Sean Connery ones on VHS on a loop too. I think that Pierce Brosnan was “the most Bond” of them all but the goofy/ludicrous Roger Moore ones were the most fun. Watching what was obviously a grandpa trying to be suave and having twenty-something year olds (and even a teen) throw themselves at him was peak cringe absurdity, and they knew it. Everyone was in on the joke (which was the opposite of the Connery ones).

They do.

Oh my god I haven’t seen Guy in years! He’s such a wonderful guy (heh). I think our last interaction was on Google’s G+. 😳

EDIT: Wow, that was a good panel.

Instead of bookmarks I use the “share to Standard Notes” option. It names the note after the link, saves the link, allows you to write a summary or tags, and makes it all searchable so it is findable later rather than disappearing like a needle in a haystack.

Why are you using Grindr Classic for search?

I have been on it for about a year and I have no complaints.

What non-american search engine do you use?

Or GLONASS

It is available to stream on Max, which means that if you do not have the means to legally stream it there, you’ll be able to find it on the high seas. That said, if you do opt to watch it through “alternative means”, make sure to at least send a little money Blender’s way.

EDIT: Also, obligatory…

But good luck funding a team to keep up with commercial companies’ pace.

You answered the question yourself. The worry is that without a hard fork that is fully maintained we’ll continue to have a dependence on Mozilla. It doesn’t need to be a new engine, but it does need to be an independent one.

I am going to make this statement openly on the Internet. Feel free to make AI generated porn of me as long as it involves adults. Nobody is going to believe that a video of me getting railed by a pink wolf furry is real. Everyone knows I’m not that lucky.

We need a truly FOSS browser that developed and maintained by the community. Librewolf isn’t it unless it fully forks away from Mozilla. We need a new engine and we just don’t have one yet.

Over 15 years ago I proposed to a number of universities what could best be described as an apprentice program. Our clients were interested but because there was no defined income stream to the university (they wanted us to pay them to allow us to teach their soon to be graduates) nobody bit. We have been sounding the alarm about Gen-X retiring for years, but nobody wants to hear it. Now a lot of my colleagues are starting to leave the sector or move out of the US to and scale down their hours. Covering their roles is going to be a struggle.

Certifications are there to assure the employer that A) you know something B) you are able to be trained. The reason you use 20-30% is because few jobs on the planet require you to know everything. The certification assures that you are at least well read on whatever 20-30% is thrown your way.
