I see this sentiment pop up occasionally but it’s rare that anyone ever explains what else the Mozilla Foundation does that’s so egregious to make it not worth donating.

Québec has done a lot of VFX for movies too. Hallmark movies often film in northern Ontario.

Unless this thing runs on fossil fuels, I don’t think it’s really going to have a big impact on climate change.

I guess there’s an argument that this is taking away engineering hours from projects that might have more practical uses in addressing climate change but I’d counter that sometimes engineers need a break from their usual work to avoid burning out from tedious incremental tasks and rigid processes. A bit of time and space for experimentation can be helpful, reinvigorating, and can lead to future discoveries and inventions if done right.

I’ve heard that Sceptre is a good brand for that

The simplest solution is just don’t buy these TVs

It wasn’t always so one sided. Jane Jacobs wrote about the power and effect of local community surveillance over the streets in her book The Death and Life of Great American Cities. When we zone for and build mixed use streets with enough density and points of interest to ensure foot traffic at all points in the day from a variety of ordinary people, with a healthy percentage of them being established locals, then it’s much easier for good samaritans to notice when something goes wrong (like a kidnapping attempt) and intervene. Privacy used to be a lot easier to achieve too when you needed it.

Seems to be gaining popularity with real estate and construction to help visualize spaces as they’re being built and/or sold

Have you tried OnlyOffice?

Property taxes. Land value taxes are just better.

(FYI Charlie Angus is a Minister of Parliament in Canada.)

Member of Parliament. He’s a part of the NDP opposition party. Ministers are heads of ministries, which are like departments, and ministers have traditionally been from the governing party.

Try OnlyOffice instead

Don’t forget anger

Hard not to bitch when, as a citizen of another country, I could never vote, and yet people here still have to deal with the consequences.

You better believe the rest of the world will be bitching.

Have you heard of Qubes?
