  Do you download your music? or take the trouble to get the CD/DVD?

  Streaming is more convenient for me, but I have in the past downloaded lots of music after buying it on bandcamp, and I've ripped music from CDs I've purchased. I keep a backup of them in a backblaze b2 bucket, and on my streaming service deezer.

  @BlackDaug That is a strong reason for trying involve ourselves mutually within a pure and intense love, sometimes silent, quality that may at times print on it more or equal intensity than when is shamelessly poured out. That is I want to declare into my American / Brazilian way of saying.

  @Komposten said in The default browser for Oneplus smartphone should be Vivaldi: @Catweazle said in The default browser for Oneplus smartphone should be Vivaldi: although F-Droid prefers FOSS, not all apps on F-Drpoid are entirely FOSS. Interesting considering these two parts of their inclusion policy: All applications in the repository must be Free, Libre and Open Source software – for example, released under a GPL or Apache license. The source code for the application must be maintained in a publicly accessible Version Control System which we have support for (git, hg, svn, bzr), and the source code needs to be maintained in an up to date state. Without much searching, for example the Gloomy Dungeons 3D game is not entirely FOSS and F-Droid warns about this. The same in several other apps on F-Droid, with the addition "This app has specifications that you may not like." Vivaldi is not entirely FOSS, it is true, but its code is entirely open for auditing. https://vivaldi.com/en/source/

  @daerragh Ads must not be shown on any vivaldi.com sites - that's a new user's first port of entry to vivaldi, and you don't want to add any friction that might turn them away. I would not be a fan of ads on vivaldi.net either, because vivaldi.net is not supposed to be a commercial product. The commercial product vivaldi is selling is the browser, and it makes money through built in search engines and pre-populated bookmarks. While you are free to suggest whatever you want, I don't think vivaldi should change this setup.

  @OldMcMetal said in If you were in possession in 20 tons of Nuttela, what would you do?: I would die of diabetes My thought exactly. I can think of one good use of nuttela (or any nut butter) -- bait for rodent traps. Here in Aotearoa New Zealand, conservation groups use peanut butter to catch rodents. I would give out all 20 tons for free to help our native birds thrive.

  Today, I have received a "personal circular email' from those who, into the team, express the soul and feelings of Jon. Titled "Hello from quarantine". The isolation is not a heavy charge to me, it is in perennial honey´moon with me and that is a reciprocal and ancient "affaire d'amour". But the message in my view achieved to be miraculously omni-embracing. For lovers and suffers ones from and with the loneliness. Thanks, team. You got all at a deep level.

  @cukabeka Yep, I mentioned Forth however do not have a C-64. Always had Sinclair (Timex in North America). Started with a ZX 81, then a 2068, and for a while the QL. There were a group of us all had the 2068, Larken Disk Drive System (it would control 4 51/4" floppy drives). I also had Zebra Systems drive controller (AKA Portuguese Disk Drive System in Europe). Timex Portugal launched improved versions, the TS 2048 and 2068; that company also developed and launched the FDD 3000, a floppy disk system, although it was not well received by the market. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinclair_Research#Cancelled_projects) It ran 3" Single Sided Floppies not 31/2" we got used to. The one I got was used (probably from a developer) and came with about a dozen floppies containing Z 80 machine language interpreter, C, Forth and lord knows what else. The only books I could find at the time were Forth books so I got into that. Just downloaded Win32 Forth. We'll see how my AV likes it. Had to disable it to download and install then whitelist its folder structure.

  Perhaps the most exasperating of this time is the excess. There is excess for everything, including the scarce.

  @Pathduck said in V Profile Backup: @Zalex108 said in V Profile Backup: 5 years ago! xDDD Actually - come to think of it, my current system came pre-installed with Win8.1 Pro, so I've not done a full OS install since installing a (pirated) Win7 about a decade ago. Let's just say I hate doing OS installs Just 15/20Gb? Yes - Win10 Pro. I install software/games and keep other files on separate partitions to not make full-partition backups too large. Backups are around 10GB a piece. It's perfectly doable if you control where stuff is installed, and do regular cleanups of caches and stuff like that. The OS partition itself is 80GB and I could probably resize it to 50GB but I don't bother. Hummm... sure, That way is feasible. I have some apps on C, but mostly use PortableApps located on D. Despite that, still 50Gb +/- in use on C, but AOMEI spends around 20', quite fast.

  Minor update: One translator for each language is not enough. Sometimes they just has no time and we have to wait for translations just because we try to publish a note at least in 3 languages. Now we really need more translators to work faster. For English too.
