Man, minors consuming media on their portable devices has been a trend since the pocket transistor radio entered market since the 60's. Pocket radio, walkman, iPod (gameboy maybe?) and smartphones are part of a string of gadgets that have been solving the problem of youngsters to comunicate and belong while keeping their privacy: an escape from their family reality to a different microcosmos. Hell, even books used to be the go-to item for this purpose. I don't see the surprise there. Regarding 16:35.

I think Firefox will always be around. Look at some of the smaller browser shares that have been there just as long as Firefox, if not longer. Look at Opera. Don't they have a 1.9% user share for the past 20 years? I don't think they're going anywhere soon. So if Firefox keeps a 5 to 10% share they'll be fine in the long run. And hopefully people will realize what a great browser it is, and start using it over Chrome.

Another really great broadcast here DT. Man! You're becoming a real professional at this. I am a retiree on a fixed income but you're making it real hard not to become a Patreon supporter. You keep this kind of thing up and I'll have to so please screw up a little. That would help. :)

Getting a secondary drive is one of the best computer investments I've made. I always keep music, images, documents and videos on the second drive. This makes it easy if I want to distro hop on bare metal or if I screw something up that I feel I can't fix the proper way.

Part of Firefox's demise is from Google practices of constantly pushing Chrome when you use other browsers - which is a shitty business practice. And iOS locking everyone to Webkit render engines. That erases mind-share for other rendering engines. Its all a bit nasty.

Unnecessary Code of Conduct changes, Richard Stallman getting cancelled, Microsoft joining linux foundation, everything in Linux being a Sandbox. You know they're trying to cancel Linus Torvalds, I can smell it. You're not worried about the future of Linux?

Hi DT, I don't know which effect you use at the beginning for the music (a gate ? a compressor ?), but I think you should increase a bit its release or its sustain so the volume doesn't change too fast ;) (if it's possible on your hardware)

distro hopping really sucks. I tried installing ArcoLinux and get my configs in place today on a X220 and miserably failed. After a couple of attempts I grabbed the Arch iso and just did a vanilla install. No issues whatsoever :)

Well... let me tell you this: there's no chance on Earth I'll move to Chrome. Not because it is not pure OSS but because it is pure bloat. To me, it simply doesn't make any sense choosing Chrome when we have Firefox. Damn...
