Agreed, but I felt compelled to mention the filthy source 😅

All true, I’m pretty much saying all are pretty bad. To quote a post from Reddit:

“Reasons to stop supporting Mozilla:

While Mozilla laid off 250 employees then gave their Execs got a colossal salary raise

Delving into politics

Their last major innovation is piggybacking on Mullvad to make a VPN UI which mandates a Mozilla account, so basically a shittier non-anonymous version of Mullvad. (Full disclosure I think Mullvad is pretty damn good, just Mozilla's spin on it is garbage). Even Firefox relay is a complete cashgrab compared to its independent alternatives like anonaddy.

Mozilla doesn't deserve your donations nor your usage. They are paid off by Google to make their grubby search engine the default. They don't need your money.

The Mozilla we knew is not the one we have anymore”

I’d like a more independant way to browse the web, a browser has become as important as my OS and I want to see a Linux of browsers!

Problem is Mozilla leaders aint much better. I use both roughly equally. Still waiting for other browsers to take off.

Same reason. Such huge amounts of downvotes every time I mention Brave. I get it, the CEO is dick. Most are.

That is a given. Eat the rich while we are at it.

A concept which aligns nicely with Solarpunk. 🙂

This is the beach our 1st level characters landed on in our Eberron campaign. It's one of the islands in Shargons Teeth.

Recently, I've been playing a fairly complicated character and wanted an easier way to navigate all the myriad spells available. I had a certain system in mind, and a quickness that wasn't available from the source site. I used an already compiled list maintained in a Google Sheet by Kyle Dixon to export to a TSV, then a couple of lines of JavaScript later, and voila! The perfect web frontend for all my spells.

My incredibly talented wife is offering a selection of her work for free on her new website https://bubbla.art!

She always has a focus on making art available to everyone by offering some of it for free. This includes #coloringpages, #papercraft, and more. It has been an absolute privilege to be a part of my wife's process. She has enjoyed tremendous success, focusing mostly on local projects in Iceland, like a card game that encourages young readers to read (http://lestrarflodhestar.is/), beautiful whale products which have been hugely popular (https://bubbla.art/product-category/whales/), and she recently held an art show. The reception of everything she has done these past few years has just been amazing! She has some of her work being sold in places such as Spilavinir, ABC Spilavörur, Whales of Iceland, Elding Adventure at Sea, used by the Reykjavík City Library in their #spilað_og_spjallað initiatives and much much more!

I'm very happy to contribute to her success where I can. Apart from being a sounding board for some of her fantastic ideas, I have been able to assist in some of the more technically oriented aspects; most recently setting up the bubbla.art website. Initially, I built a site from scratch using #HTML + #JS + #TailwindCSS (https://tailwindcss.com/), running on #nodejs, fronted by a #caddy server (https://caddyserver.com/), all in containers in Amazon Web Services (AWS). This allowed for absolute control over each line of code and every aspect of the site, but when it came to integrating payment providers, the available solutions required a bit too much effort so I decided to rebuild the whole thing using WordPress + NGINX + #Apache + Custom #CSS. This allowed a reasonable level of control with the addition of being able to easily integrate payment providers, SendGrid emails, etc. To track the metrics of the site, I deployed the very fantastic #ackee (https://ackee.electerious.com/), a privacy-focused analytics tool. It's awesome because it gives us the numbers we need without compromising visitor privacy, running behind a Caddy server, in containers in AWS.

Check out her site https://bubbla.art/; I'm sure you'll like what you see!

Templar Dawn (cdn.discordapp.com)
 

Inside our tombs we dead await In endless gloom we contemplate We shall return, as prophesied So break the curse and we will rise, mike mignola Style

Once we were knights In the service of Christ Now to Satan sworn On this unholy night Under the pale moonlight We will be reborn Templar dawn, mike mignola Style

For centuries our cult has grown Now they will raise our blackened bones Cursed by the king, burned at the stake Seeking revenge, we now awake, mike mignola Style

Grand Master! Ride out! Out of the crypt, we ride again To lay waste to the world of men Our eyes are blind, our flesh decayed But still we wage our black crusade, mike mignola style
