  • I dislike any browser which blocks content (such as ads) by default. It may sound silly, but Imo, that’s not what a browser should be doing. It’s job is to act as an HTTP client, render HTML and do caching, storage and all the management which goes with it and offer any tools to tinker with it.
    The meaning of the content displayed should be of no concern to the browser as it is subjective.
    I will install an addon to deal with unwanted content as I see fit. Firefox is getting kinda bloated with all the things which come with it (pocket, accounts, default bookmarks…), but I can live with that.



  • You tell them you want your lawyer and you will not answer any questions until you see them. Your lawyer will tell you how to proceed.
    If the police have nothing on you and wanted to fish something out of you, your lawyer will get you free. If the police have something against you and are pursuing further, your lawyer will inform you of what your options are. But generally, this is when you’re going to have to deal with this shit. It doesn’t matter if you did it or not at that point, but a lawyer will be your best bet to make it out on best grounds - whether that is get out free or with the smallest fine/sentence.
    Just know:

    • if the police has something on you, and you did it, its game over, a lawyer may help ease the price you pay
    • if the police has something on you, and you didn’t do it, its an unfortunate situation, a lawyer may help ease the price you pay or get you off free
    • if the police has nothing on you, and you did it, though unethical, a lawyer will get you off free
    • if the police has nothing on you, and you didn’t do it, a lawyer will get you off free





  • Heh, I loved most of the movies mentioned in the comments and I love old movies. I was expecting a lot more obscure cinema, not Godfather.
    More controversially, I did find Lynch to be a boring film maker. I thought his more mainstream titles like The Straight Story (which I loved) or Elephant Man were the better of his work.
    Also thought Yasujiro Ozu was pretty boring. I get his point, and I get how he plays with movement with smoke and wind and every scene is well thought out, but I couldn’t get behind the stories he was trying to tell.
