Does it have support for the P2P part of playing the videos? I know it can cause issues for data caps if it does. But if it doesn't have that part, would love to see it show up in the settings to turn on and off to help share if on WiFi or if not on a cap. Would be great at least if running it on an Android based TV box to be able to not be a complete leech.
Funny how the USA went nuts and strong-armed other Western nations to outright ban Chinese hardware and companies due to "security concerns." Yet allowed using a fork of Signal from a foreign nation, and those concerns were nowhere to be found. IOF is already known to be on par (if not better) with the USA in spying on and creating false flags globally. Yet the highest office chose to use it anyway. Which is beyond stupid given that a fork could have been made and ran by a USA company (or the NSA or whichever three letter agency) specifically for the same use. Hell those agencies already are and have been heavily funding the Signal Foundation.
I get those a lot from other sites (weirdly YT Music doesn't on FF or Zen) like Amazon Music (even when just trying to buy a digital track or album). Weirdly the sites will act normal for a moment or two before removed about my browser not being "updated" or otherwise Chromium-based. We managed to break the internet being coded for IE, but allowed Google to openly make the new IE. Safari seems to work for some of the sites, but that is just because Apple made all the iOS browsers use Webkit with custom skins on one of the top selling phone/tablet options.
What I meant was that the could just start doing what they were already doing with the fork already having the same code under the hood. Kind of like how LibreOffice happened after the holders of OpenOffice pulled their shit. Obviously Mozilla is more than just FF. They just keep it from being directly donated to, which is at least some money they just seem to not want. I also know that pure donation-based funding is nowhere near what they lose Google's money. But it is very frustrating that basically all of their other services have options to donate or sub to them directly.
Can't be sure of course. But there are at least some forks of FF that devs of FF could keep doing work on if Mozilla just stopped FF. I have been daily driving Zen-browser for at least six or eight months. It is very good as far as FF forks go, and if folks that do the work for the core browser things that aren't UI/UX were to jump-in. It could be able to keep moving forward as far as standards and security updates are concerned.
The only major issue (aside from the above) would be setting up an extension "store" since Zen does just point to FF's "store." Which is an issue for basically all the Chromium-based forks that aren't Edge and Opera to my knowledge. I hate that those forks still lose things like uBO even if they still support it instead of the V3 stuff.
Those are very much not trivial things and are honestly what would kill all of FF and the forks if not able to happen. Funding would be the first thing needed for devs to keep going if their main income is from their work for Mozilla. It would be at least easier than completely starting from zero.
Thanks for the recommendation! I will give it a try sometime. My typing has gotten better over the years since that job. Mostly due to having co-workers at my current job being faster. Just depends on if I am typing out notes that are basically the same and needing to get things closed at the last minute. lol
Since you at least know the layout. Typing of the Dead can be fun for forcing you to start using more fingers as things come at you. I needed to force myself to get better in order to make sure I could pass a timed typing speed and accuracy test for a data entry job. Played it a little every night for at least a week before my interview. I was still kind of slow, but was much more accurate. Which got me into a position that corrected or found missing information from the main data entry folks. If arcade zombie games aren't your thing, there are some other good games mentioned in the other comments.
And I may or may not have used a cracked Photoshop
Installing cracked Photoshop is basically a rite of passage for many. My first cracked program was Photoshop 6 that my photography friend gave me back in high-school when I was stuck on dial-up and they had cable.
Good to know that you actually give options a try (every now and then I try Photoshop to see how it works and new things). So many people will just hate on things just because they just hear that they are bad. One of my friends does photography and hates how Photoshop being a subscription costs so much. But refuses to bother checking-in on GIMP or other options. Even Lightroom alts are deemed not worth it just from muscle memory it seems. Which I do at least understand, but even just checking on options can mean having fall-backs if suddenly needing them. I doubt Adobe will just go away, but they can always make costs higher and higher which price people out.
It would be good if more UI/UX minded folks that actually use Photoshop/Lightroom but hate Adobe's sub models were to help out. Even just giving good input and follow-up with why or how those things could work is a starting point. Devs and creatives need each other for making projects/products like GIMP into options that more people would use for real.
I don't do much editing (certainly not fancy stuff with heavy use of all the tools), but there is a pretty good mod/patch PhotoGIMP that makes it present similar to Photoshop. It isn't that old GIMP-shop one that might have malware. Doesn't fix the missing stuff that power-users need, so no go for many of them. But the UI is much better than the main version of GIMP. Just have to apply the mod/patch after installing GIMP.
I am okay with it so long as it is at least using the real/translated words, and would be best if it was possible to have like dual audio/visual options in the same file. Or al least have clickable links to source files. I think it can (and that is a big "can") be very useful for getting more people exposed to more things that they would likely not bother with because of not wanting to read. Or more specifically helpful for folks that can't read (like vision impaired) which a normal video doesn't have a good option for a screen reader program. Just really depends on how it is used or abused.
My Paperwhite is also the 2015 model. Not seeing individual pixels with a magnifying glass is awesome to hear. I certainly think that it would look good for manga or other black and white format comics.
It seems to just be one of those AI that makes foreign language sound and video seem as though it was actually done in English. So that is why it says it is dubbed and the visual lines up with the audio.
Nice to see options, I hadn't heard of them before. Looks like the SN 10.7in is basically the same price as the 10.3in RM2. The smaller SN's price does make it a nice option for giving it a try. I will bookmark both to see if any sales pop-up. Do ebooks and manga look better than a Kindle? Been thinking of getting something more open than my Paperwhite 2 without the need to jailbreak. I would imagine that tablets like SN or RM would look great since they can have precise fine-point note taking.
Good to know information, I haven't looked into it beyond installing it to see how similar it was. Still could be a starting point for some folks that have the option to self-host and more specifically have large friend groups that have issues with only liking the UI of Discord. A very specific scenario for sure, but still nice to have options if one like that were to happen.
Not federated, but Revolt can be self-hosted and is very similar to Discord in the look and feel from what I have seen (I have it installed, but haven't tried getting friends to install it and am not hosting). So it could be worth looking into for folks that are used to Discord.
Why would having a provider covered by the DMCA be a good thing (not offhand aware of NTD but I am guessing it is similar to the DMCA)? I have also been interested in trying Usenet, so thanks for sharing three examples of what to look for!
