It was a better editor than Sony Vegas but now it’s almost unusable. All I wanted was to make a wee video remembrance for a friend who passed away, and they’ve changed so much so radically its practically unusable. sigh -

That’s a brilliant article. Too many people who ought to read it won’t. -

Dear free software developers: before you “upgrade” something that works, make sure you aren’t replacing it with something that doesn’t. RIP Good GThumb

Yes, we are definitely having a very cold winter this year. In recent years we’ve had ridiculously warm winter weather. Here in southern Ontario it hasn’t been uniformly wretchedly cold… we’ve had snow come and go twice. Looks like this lot is here for the duration. -

I thought growing up about 3 miles (5km) out of town was hardship; I think I only ever walked it once. I used to do my sister’s chores in exchange for use of her bicycle. Funny, I do more walking now than then.
(Although I must admit to being seriously wimpy in the face of very cold weather this year.)

It wasn’t til I went to college that I learned I had the potential to be a video game addict. There was an arcade game called PHOENIX I loved in the common area… more than once I opted for rolls of quarters rather than food. #starvingstudent -

Great to see you too! I’ve given up on ever getting the twitter bridge to work; but I’m hoping to be back in the Fediverse in 2018… the closest thing to a New Years Resolution is that I’m going to try to spend more energy on things I want to do (rather than things I think I should do.)

Yes, I was (and still am) terribly annoyed with W3C. -

Me too. First time I saw Pong was when I was a high school student; people I babysat for had Pong.

Here’s @BobJonkman & @doctorow last night at the University of Waterloo after Cory Doctorow’s “Dead canary in the coalmine: We just lost the web in the war on general purpose computing” talk… more pix here: http://laurelrusswurm.tumblr.com/post/168236845202/cory-doctorow-in-waterloo-on-monday-december-4th http://s.russwurm.org/attachment/40037 -

Universal Basic Income.
Here’s my local advocacy group’s webpage. http://biwr.ca/The Ontario Government is looking to do a pilot program; not because they are prescient, but because next election they will be looking at least twice as bad as they did in the last one, and after the pilot gives good (cost savings) results, they will be able to point to it and crow about their social progressiveness and hope we will have forgotten about all the bad stuff they have done. And, of course, if we want Basic Income implemented we’ll need to re-elect them.

I seem to type the wrong word… like “know” instead of “no” ... which I realize as soon as I’ve typed it. -

No, but I will take a look and see if I can find either in Fdroid. Thanks :) -
