cordwainer

Oh ho! A new word for me!

For the other 9,999:

A cordwainer is a shoemaker who creates new shoes from new leather, distinguishing them from cobblers, who primarily repair shoes.

I’ll take “questions in which the answer is the first option” Alex.

Cynically? To keep the FTC and regional equivalents off their back by funding their competition (Mozilla, for example).

Genuinely? There are possibly a few teams within the behemoth of Google that actually do want to support the green software they use. The value of that support is probably small enough to be hidden in a departments costs so doesn’t get noticed by the pigs in command.

It’s “interference” from the (fascist) executive’s point of view.

It’s oversight from Congress’ point of view, and by extension the people it represents.

Having said that, that article should have done better.

I went to that picture to see what this muzzle looks like, saw that (it turns out AI slop) and immediately thought “those short bits are not nodes or internodes or even meant to look like them” like described in the text.

Came here to see if I was going of piste.

The peasants rejoiced.

I lived that movie.

The Magnificent Seven. In space.

As opposed to The Seven Samurai in the wild west.

The Owl House (Disney) a ridiculously wholesome magical animated show with some amazing well integrated LGBT/non-binary representation.

Battlestar Galactica. It’s heavy weight politics, in space. Cast is rock solid. _there’s ^{too much} _{confusion here} The follow on movies are also excellent.

I was super excited when I realized season three was on Netflix and would pick up off the banger of an ending to season two, got half way through it thinking: this is awesome and weird, it’s like season two but slightly different. Then realized I’d already watched season three and was watching it again.

One of my favorite shows of all time.

He doesn’t care.

Saved you a click.

I’m pretty sure no one has ever successfully explained anything to Trump.

They come in a pack with a poop knife.

Certainly all of them subject to European colonisation during the ‘age of discovery’ (15C to 19C).

I’ve just learned about the ‘doctrine of discovery’ and the ‘papal bulls’ that enabled it: disgusting.

That’s really cool. I was thinking of something similar.

Here we have a ‘ground lease’ that separates the title to the land from the title to the improvements. I want to convert to that, I’d probably take a financial got doing so (when eventually selling) but it seems right.
