I just read that other post!

10,040,000. I think.

'Cause the era ended 251 million years ago.

So, 252m / 100, x 4 is 10m, ish.

Disclaimer: I can’t math

Oh snap. I should’a thought of that! Thanks

@sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al , unless you work for Mozilla, you have no idea what else they added in to the base service and none of us should blindly trust them, since Mozilla VPN is not an open source project.

I use Mozilla VPN and I also have this concern, @yourFanatic@sh.itjust.works but other than the public docs from Mozilla, I’m not sure how anyone outside the company can answer this.

For instance, this page (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/vpn/features/) talks a lot about how your browsing is improved thru their VPN, but doesn’t go intomuch depth on what they do with the data flowing through their/Mullvad’s servers, other than to say, “We never log, track or share your network data. Simply put, we don’t collect your personal browsing information.”

This page has more detail – https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/privacy/subscription-services --, but still, you end up either trusting them or you don’t. I do, currently.

Also, each time I start up the VPN app on Ubuntu, I see a prompt asking if I want to enable the “Share technical data” feature. I say no and it still works just fine. You might trust Mozilla more than I do with that data but I do trust them to not send it when the feature is disabled.

And then the next screen asks if I want the VPN app to block ads, trackers and/or malware. (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-change-my-privacy-features) I already have Pihole on my network, so I don’t enable those features either. I suspect they incur network traffic thru Mozilla (specifically) but again, the docs do not cover how these feature work under the hood. So again, how much do you trust Mozilla?

As always, YMMV. You can reach out to their Support and see if they’ll answer your questions, of course. I’ve dealt with them before and they’re OK to work with.

Typing now with heliboard and yeah, its not ideal. But I still like it best. Good luck with your hunt.

Yeah, baby! What does Chicago have? A bean?!?

I am posting this after I read this on the Wikipedia page for Bill Alexander, Ross’ art teacher:

As Ross’s popularity grew, his relationship with Alexander became increasingly strained. In a 1991 interview with The New York Times, Alexander said of Ross: “He betrayed me. I invented ‘wet on wet’. I trained him, and he is copying me – what bothers me is not just that he betrayed me, but that he thinks he can do it better.” Alexander refers here to Bob Ross using some of his individual patter like “happy little trees” and borrowing some of his unique peculiarities. Art historians have pointed out that the “wet-on-wet” (or alla prima) technique actually originated in Flanders during the 15th century, and was used by Frans Hals, Diego Velázquez, Caravaggio, Paul Cézanne, John Singer Sargent, and Claude Monet, among many others.

As Cyndi Lauper sang, money changes everything. And that sucks.

Be like Bob, not Bill.

Enter the Gungeon

I had to look it up but that looks cool! Thanks for the idea.

It is. But it seemed a good time to remind the younger generation of how art can be used to push agendas in a very negative way. I expected a lot of discussion, which is one of the purposes of art.

If this doesn’t belong here, just downvote it folks and I’ll remove it.

The collection has lots of other Marx Brothers movies too.

Hail Freedonia!

But does it whip the llama’s ass?

I think not.
