That's true basically, there is no time, the concept is just a human invention.

@npro exactly. i'm pleased that you accurately discerned my deliberate attempt to go all Zen for a moment. ha.
although now, ofc, there IS a genuine sense of time... time to quit vivaldi

@npro you are entirely correct, ofc, technically. otoh psychologically, i think it's fair to say, v lost me long ago, for all the reasons we have discussed many times in many threads. though i always believed that v would succumb to gargle's mv3 impost, & thus lose uBO, part of me still had hoped that jon would somehow pull a rabbit out of the hat. this new blog ofc entirely crushes that hope, & even worse did it in an insulting gaslighting tone [as another peep accurately noted].
for ages now, after v updates, i don't even bother firing it up to play with it, coz i always read the changelogs first & almost all the time most of the changes are on aspects about which i do not care at all, with nothing on the stuff i do want. so that, + the now-official position on mv3, means that i honestly doubt i'll gain much value from keeping v installed another year. tbh, i think the only reason i'm still hanging around here at all, even in my obviously minimal way nowadays, is coz it's still fun to chat & joke with the few other old-timers here with similar perspectives. alas, soon that won't be a strong enough reason to continue retaining v in my installed pkgs...
Look, you've got it all wrong! You don't need to follow me. You don't need to follow anybody! You've got to think for yourselves! You're all individuals!

Oh my. Here I was thinking you were the only "upside-downer" around!

for that alone I'm a fan of that person already

@TbGbe ah, i accidentally omitted a bit...
with the few other old-timers here with similar perspectives, even though that means needing to endure the odd pommie windozing horizontaller or two, as well.
yeah, that's better.

@ybjrepnfr your sign the most democratic thing I read, especially for poor citizens hero worshipping in India

jane-n said in [Vivaldi 6.8 on Android –
We're extremely sorry for the trouble.
We've confirmed the crash bug. A new version is on its way to the Play Store and will be live as soon as Google approves it.
Thank you for your patience!just a thought, me having fun -
google prolly can sue vivaldi in case they lied about pushing the update to hide their incompetency in removing crash in the snapshot , attributing the delay to google. -
@3dvs That sounds more malicious than "having fun." Suing or being sued is no laughing matter - and attributing bad motives, worse still.
-
@Ayespy and you should thank me coz I had the sense to not say it there, trusting that Vivaldi wouldn't .
so, not actually a bad ulterior motive, that was probably your own mis-understanding of what I meant to say.
-
@3dvs It's enough to know Vivaldi did not delay and then blame it on someone else. They confirmed the bug, made a fix, submitted a new version. Google has to approve all submissions. That creates a delay somewhere between hours and days.

@Ayespy cool, alright .
this not a serious thread and me not new.
you might attract peeps with all that attention.
on another note I hate the company culture for being unfriendly and untrusting to newcomers with all that NDAs , non-competitive clause, minimum reputation.
alas, innocent young men like me, this cruel cruel world, and people like 'you' who are siding with the world, unable to understand innocency.
Edit: when I said company I didn't blame Vivaldi being untrusting but the grand scheme of this complicated world unable to trust innocency and simplicity, which Vivaldi had to follow.
Only if people understood oldest scripture from vedant and budhist texts on philosophy , teachings of Christ, which all talk of consciousness independent of every thought, using self-discrimimation against oneself , before taking any action. Trust me, nothing in world would have been this worse.
Like gandhi did. whenever he had to write an letter in anger, he wrote and torn it multiple times until his anger subsided.
This enabled him to say - only the best of things. -

@luetage /sarcasm

i can't even begin to pretend i understand recent posts in this thread. seems to be allusions to incidents unknown to me, given my contemporary... inattention... hereabouts these days.
-
it happens all the time, everywhere human is.
not 'sarcasm' , thats a general fact.thing is, world has become complicated. innocency is rarely understood and trusted.
Humans think they want peace , yet they keep getting fooled by their own brain(tis says the wisest saints of the world)
just observe yourself and you'll know how you getting fooled by your own brain, like when you fumble with 2 way stairs switch. you are just absent minded, aren't you ? your brain fooling you.
havent we all thought after anger subsides 'I shouldn't have gotten angry' . This, said the cream of philosopher in history, should be moment of self-enlightenment where you can realize your trueself.
-
@Ayespy If someone is desperate, they can install the package directly from Vivaldi. There's a setting to allow non-store installs, we Sopranos used to have to do that all the time. And yes, I debated doing it this time to have a non-crashing build myself.
-
@sgunhouse i'd just like to point out that using this thread for posting & discussing on-topic subjects is hideously off-topic, & all infractions shall be reported to... um... to...

It happened again, with the world that works on assumptions, based on its own paranoid human brain tendencies, believing itself correct.
I went for my first internship.
On second day, I was talking with a colleague, and just happened to ask what his salary was.
Employer writes to me later : asking salary is wrong. You shouldn't have done that. Its against company rules. You have removed you from communication.
I know that might be detrimental for the company, seeing its might be company secret, given its a small firm. But, they should know who they're dealing with. And amount of action they are taking.
But, isn't it just fear tendency of human brain, mind is always afraid, thats how brain functions,.
amygdala, it keeps racking the memories , finding potential risks, and thinking possible solutions. Creating unnecessary trouble for others around you and the world.
Conclusion: Be world-proof , dont think someone specific person(s) is targeting you.
Its just some tendencies inherent in human brain, like fear, jealousy and the like. They are themselves hackled by their own brain.Now you, Have you heard of any incidents of companies/employers paranoia. Other company practices just based on potential risks.
