Ogg was apparently not named after Nanny Ogg, no matter how awesome that’d be.

The Xiph.org foundation themselves say that’s where the name came from.

The Vorbis audio codec was also named after Vorbis from Small Gods, the 13th Discworld book.

The new logo sort of looks like a white flag. It symbolizes the fact that Mozilla has just completely given up by now.

The moz://a logo is really genius. I wonder if their current leadership is so incompetent that they don’t even understand the :// part of the logo…

and frankly people got really pushy about a thing they don’t even pay for

He doesn’t owe anyone anything, and he can decide to run his open source project just as he pleases, but it could have gone so much better. People are mostly just disappointed, I feel like.

I’ll have you know that I always use the Wii safety strap! Some call me weird for still walking around with that strap so many years after I sold my Wii, but I haven’t broken a single TV since then…

Or in America, “We’re going to sew you back up, but first, please enter credit card details and sign here regarding your payment plan”

What’s the value proposition here? Free no-questions-asked replacement if it breaks? Free upgrades when new models come out (though they have no real incentive to keep developing new “forever mice”)?

If my mice on average last, say, 6 years and cost $175 (I splurged on a high-end one last time), the subscription will have to be less than $2.40/month, and since customers absolutely hate subscriptions, especially if there’s no real benefit, probably even less than $1.50/month for most to even consider it.

In fact the Logitech mouse before my current mouse lasted 12 years and cost me $75, so that’s a max subscription cost of 50 cents/month for it to be comparable.

Fair enough. Sorry.

No, but it also gives you a wider selection of mice to choose from, since you could just ignore the wireless functionality. Some of them may cost a bit more, but not necessarily very much.

Because some people want both options.

Most wireless mice can be used wired too.

Yeah, I don’t like Temu, and I’m sure the app is a privacy nightmare, but these claims don’t seem right. If it’s true, I’d like to see someone else verify it.

I rarely use that keyboard, but once in a while you just need to type something in a terminal or a remote desktop or something, and it really comes in handy then.

You should totally post your credit card number. Have you made your password database public yet? Don’t keep knowledge locked up…

How about presenting the actual photo editing features instead of telling potential new users about the QT framework and C++ or whatever it uses? The website is peak “programmer attempting marketing”.

Ubuntu users fight Canonical all the time too.

Really cool project, even though it has its flaws. Be prepared to search the documentation and update the configuration via the command line, as there’s no settings page in the web interface.

I had some trouble with it throwing a fatal error on URLs longer than the max filename length on my filesystem, but the author has been very responsive on GitHub. I replied to a 3-4 year old closed issue and the author opened it again and tried implementing a new fix in the dev version. I’m encountering another issue with using the dev version in my setup right now, but I think that’s being worked on.

I feel like the people who downvoted this only read the title without actually watching. This video is very much NOT pro-smoking.
