I could only imagine if each record label had their own streaming service. People would go nuts.

Good deny reason.

I think it's fair to think that they could refocus their efforts on the browser if they didn't have that large slush fund from Google. I don't think "hey we don't take Google money anymore" is going to lead to a lot of new donations, however.

I looked it up and still have no clue what it is.

it sounds like no one else does either

Maintaining a browser that doesn't rely on someone else's upstream code is quite an ordeal. Of the four main browsers (Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox), 3 are built by large for-profit enterprises and the other relies on money from a large for-profit enterprise. Browsers are very complex pieces of technology and can't be maintained by 3 guys on GitHub in their spare time.

Close. Chromium uses Blink which was originally a fork of WebKit. I have no idea how much they've diverged since then.

They could probably raise more if Google went away

I'm interested in how you think Mozilla would raise more than half a billion dollars if they didn't take any money from Alphabet/Google. Genuinely. In what ways could Mozilla raise money that they're not doing right now?

I'm shocked he doesn't have an IRA (unless that doesn't count). Given his previous jobs, it passes the smell test that he doesn't have a 401k.

I'm sure his pensions are invested in a wide range of stocks and bonds, but he doesn't directly hold them.

Live look at @TheFonz.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.

when they flock together they tend to get disruptive and toxic very quickly

Hmm, I wonder why that is?

My mental health isn't great at the moment so I'm not really excited about anything. Maybe that it'll get better?

Rugby Sevens most likely. The US Women's team had people on it who had never played rugby 4 years ago. Granted they had an (American) football background. Handball might be in there. It's gotta be a sport that isn't very popular.

The Phantom Tollbooth

It's an amazing book, but no one would consider it a masterpiece.

Could be worse. He could live in a country which doesn't have universal healthcare.

I gotta convince myself that what I thought of wasn't funny.

Golfers can always use a pack of new balls. If it's a surprise gift, ask about what the balls are made of and then which she thinks is the best. Buy accordingly.

This. If you're a meme stock (Tesla), you have to keep it that way or else everyone is losing their shirts.

He's just a director that will take a variety of projects.
