opera was so much more than just a browser. it's the closest thing to the old idea of "internet suites" that netscape and later mozilla tried to create, that we ever got.
yeah. i don't enjoy any of the "creative" parts really, i want to make machines. terraria is a lot better at some of the things minecraft deos, but completely ignores others. which is good when you want a compelling game, rather than just a sandbox.
i'd definitely pay for the development of something i use that much. unfortunately i can't donate directly to development of firefox, otherwise i would have.
it's really cool how much they've worked on it over the years. but it's not for me. i played it when wall of flesh was the final boss, and after beating that i felt like i was done with that gameplay loop.
i will never understand why us traffic lights go immediately from red to green. you have a whole-ass third light to use for signaling that the light is about to change, so people don't have to floor it due to an unexpected change.
one thing gnome is really good at is multitouch touchpad gestures. when on a laptop, and you don't have to move a lat to get to the mouse, it's very quick.
"fart" is colloquial swedish for speed, but it's not used on signs like that. as mentioned previously the correct word is "hastighetskontroll", but we don't actually have signs like that for permanent speed cameras. those signs are blue, and just depict a camera.
when "fart" appears on signs, the actual meaning is akin to "travel" or "fare", like german "fahr-" words. so we have "sjöfart" (seafaring), "rymdfart" (space travel), "fartvind" (wind rushing by when moving quickly), "uppfart" (driveway) and, importantly for signs, "utfart" and "infart" (exit and entry for vehicles).
my favorite of this is a sign nearby on a narrow road that warns about multiple exits with no sight lines.
