The first paragraph is not true. Mozilla is backed by a billionaire or billionaires, for example Google and Microsoft where the majority of Mozilla revenues comes from them. Stop deceiving people!

VLC the media player is using Qt. Unless you talk about libvlc, But why bother when Gstreamer itself is good.

Look up in the sky, it's a bird it's a plane, ~~it's the Funk Doctor Spock smoking buddha on a train~~ it's a miUI, it's an iOS.

Very inefficient when they can just ask FBI, NSA, or any of their counterparts in other countries about people online records. Or they can just arrest high profile person like telegram founder to give access to the logs.

To me Jazz is to appreciate timeless music such as those from Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong.

Jazz is also my way to appreciate improvisation explosiveness such as those coming from Herbie Hancock ,Chick Corea, Hiromi Uehara, Joey Alexander. they are just blew my mind! Then Miles Davis - the smartest, sexiest, grooviest musician along with Wayne Shorter, they make me learn "ahh this is what a great band leader should do".

Jazz is my kind of music at any time, whatever mood i have there will be music that goes along with it. Recently, i streamed Laufey, Gregory Porter almost everyday while in the office, it helps me focus and keep me in a good mood.

Jazz is not pretentious, i look at most of my heroes i mentioned before play live and in interview they are always humble even with all those skills. Marcus Miller is probably one of the most skillful and resourceful musician but also the most down to earth musician, unlike typical rockstar or metal musicians mentality that posses "i am the man, with all those pretentiousness" (i have no intention to start a flame war, it is just my own opinion).

Lastly, My controversial opinion is that i think Jazz is America version of classical music, and somehow they are always doing things better when it comes down to music (and cinema).

So Google tightening the look but don't touch approach? Not a surprise at all. Google already implement this approach with Push notifications (FCM/GCM) and Hardware Attestation that makes custom android OS/ROM harder to recommend for most people that need for example app that needs good Location service and Phone Payment like Google Wallet.

I live in athens for a while now, and weirdly enough the best restaurant i found is in the center area, while they might not have the best service because of the customer traffic, the food is consistently good. So please feel free to explore the restaurant around Monastiraki, Plaka and Thiseio (Apostolou Pavlou) area.

I live in Athens. I just want to say Kudos to all the greeks, they are hard worker, simple and unpretentious people. Its so unfortunate that these people need to work long hour.

And the rent here is a problem thanks to AirBNB and greedy landlords, for example i know people who needs to pay €400 monthly rent (not included utilities bills) with their €1000 monthly salary, and at the end of the month they have nothing to save.

In my opinion, If sovereignty is the goal i think GTK based DE will be safer than QT based DE.

I am aware of The Free QT foundation And its relation to KDE but in a long term there is possibility of things might get complicated if there is change in policy . And even the QT trademark is not totally free. I'm not trying to start DE war, i love both KDE and GNOME.

 

I still remember this performance is the opening of International Jazz Day 2021 and whats very touching about this performance, is that it's specifically a tribute to Chick Corea who passed away weeks earlier.

 

Great rendition of John Coltrane classics
