Here's the most played Steam Deck games of 2023

I want Firefox to succeed more than ever and I support Mozilla finding better revenue sources than search engine default sales, but I do not support a $7M salary for its CEO.
I canceled my recurring donation to Mozilla because I need that money more than Mozilla’s CEO needs that money.
If there is a direct funding option of developers working on Firefox, I will happily reallocate that money. Send me links.
@Gargron The for-profit corp is wholly controlled by the non-profit one.
Like the OP, I don't really agree with the CEO's salary (and would not donate for that reason), but Mozilla did increase their revenue considerably over that period. IIRC she has made arguments about her pay scale vs other IT executives that sounded plausible (the $6 mil is not her pay scale BTW; most of that was bonuses tied to the new revenue).
Caution: Brendan Eich has been grinding this axe loudly for years

I spent a decade of my life creating game assets, the result is a lot of game assets. They're free, no ads, no tracking, no registration, no subscription, no permission needed, no need for attribution and suited for any use including commercial.
I have played with GEOS for C64, and was not impressed. So, I postponed trying out PC GEOS aka GeoWorks aka NewDeal aka Breadbox Ensemble. In the first place, I wasn't sure it will work on our 80286 computer - all the articles say it's for "low-end 386 machines". But it does work, and NewDeal 3.1 runs on 286/2MB as well as Windows 95 runs on 386/8MB. In other words, it runs pretty well!
I am certainly going to play with it more, as the version I've installed doesn't have office apps or Ethernet driver (but both exist, and they're darn good - with Word 97 import and export).
So far I've only tried out media viewer (bmp/gif/pcx, no jpg, sadly), and a web browser (some HTML and CSS, no JS support). I love it.
Because even Windows 3.1 is more painful to use on this machine than GEOS.
Good kitty!

"...this is a movie that has Something To Say and I still can’t figure out what that is."
That tracks with the misogyny the site occasionally espouses.

Well, if you ever visit Melbourne Australia, here are some things to learn!
"Don't you dare go to Starbucks. There aren't many of them anyway, and a real Melbourne café is always going to be a better bet. You can get excellent coffee (a flat white, by the way, is a latte without the foam; a long or short black is a black coffee) as well as, usually, sandwiches like chicken and avocado and treats like caramel slices and brownies."

This snowy scene was captured during a particularly severe winter in Britain in 1894-95 known as ‘The Great Frost’.
The photographer, Paul Martin (1864-1944) pioneered street and night photography, with some shots requiring exposures of anything between 10 to 20 minutes. His nighttime adventures were “amusing experiences” - passers-by were not used to seeing a man with a camera and he was often stopped by the police.

Did you know Monopoly was invented by a woman named Elizabeth Magie in 1903?
Originally ‘The Landlord’s Game,’ it was designed as a protest against the big monopolists like Carnegie & Rockefeller.
But it was Charles Darrow, an unemployed salesman, who eventually sold it to Parker Brothers after playing a version.
Parker Brothers credited Monopoly with saving their company. Magie died in 1948 without recognition. Darrow became very wealthy & his legend lives on. #history
PSA for Android users: Uninstall Simple Mobile Tools apps!
The developer of Simple Mobile Tools, an Android app suite which has been historically well respected in the FOSS space, has sold their apps to a company called ZipoApps, a company that buys apps from independent developers to add advertisements and trackers to them. I highly suggest uninstalling any of the Simple Mobile Tools apps you have on your device and looking for alternatives.
Sources: reddit.com/r/SimpleMobileTools…
reshared this
for those wanting to keep using the apps, one of the original devs has forked them and is working on distributing new versions that won't be subject to this bullshit!
