@loptimist @brouhaha @ploum Am I missing something with Flow? Just seems to be a closed-source engine from a private company?

@loptimist @brouhaha @ploum I wouldn't expect anything from private enterprise to respect my privacy - and being closed source means there's no reasonable way to verify any claims either. If open-source and privacy-respecting are your two metrics, you'd still be much better off with Firefox.

Man, if Mozilla had spent any real time in the last decade making embedding/using Gecko feasible for anything except Firefox, there'd be so many Gecko-based browsers right now.

My entire journey with developing Gecko stuff and working for Mozilla started because embedding was possible (though difficult).

It's sad to see Mozilla management continue to just not learn anything at all. Misfire after misfire. But they're more important now than ever :(

Do I know anyone that's had custom-printed game boxes done? Maybe in the #boardgame community? Boosts very much appreciated!

Trying to get a short run of boxes done... UK places have ludicrous prices and delivery from the US is expensive for a short run... At the moment, the contents of the box is going to be significantly cheaper than the box itself!

@ebassi you have saintly amounts of patience to continue participating in the community side of things...

@Gargron as I'm sure many Brits are telling you, now isn't a great time to move here... Our healthcare system is collapsing, our government is asset stripping and distributing the proceeds amongst the already wealthy, inflation has made even basic items very expensive, the property market is still insane, people are stressed...

That said, there are still only a few other places I'd be happy to live - namely Scotland and Ireland. If you're set on it, best of luck and welcome in advance 🙂

There's something a bit special about Cubase on the Atari... #retrocomputing #musicproduction
