Maybe it's just to me, but liberal/national coalition and labor seem like the two major parties, green is barely at the table still.

If you exclude the coalition, national has 4 times the representation of green, and liberal 3 times that.

Just my opinion here, but it's still two major parties, with the thirds coming up in ranks and getting some momentum going. It'll be a good day imo when the greens overtake the nationals (and maybe one day the liberals), but I personally don't see it as representative of the people yet. Improving, but still functionally two parties.

It's still not that old (~10 years or so iirc), it takes time for a third party to be major contentender. Earlier on you're more likely to see third party wins in more local than national level elections.

It's not an insta-win for third parties. But that's ok, because local elections matter, and that's where you'd typically see results first.

Mythbusters streamlined is like that. A bit rough on some cuts imo, but overall just cuts the fluff.

I firmly disagree, your brothers taught you the correct greeting.

Studio monitors are excellent choices, but expensive. I've used genelecs for pretty much every audio workstation I've ever done, I'm a huge fan, but you're also talking $800 and up.

You can sometimes find a good deal on some used studio monitors, which to me is the way to go. A long ways back I decommissioned some genelecs for a studio (surprise surprise, the new studio had newer versions of the same model), and I've been using them since at home. Roughly 15 years now.

I wouldn't say they are wrong, I've got plenty of issues with Firefox that aren't in chromium-based browsers. Mostly with media playback, but on Android the toolbar hide on scroll is a mess, no matter what it just covers the page. Makes it really hard to use a menu or click a button depending on where it is. I also have some locally run services that throw js errors in FF but not in cromite, chromium, or chrome.

Doesn't mean I don't prefer FF because I acknowledge it has problems. I don't generally view videos in my browser anyway, and I disable the hide-on-scroll feature. And if I have a particularly problematic site (the js errors), I open cromite or whatever.

The bigger issue isn't people talking about bugs, but downplaying the role the foundation plays in supporting users. That, imo, is where a lot of misinformation and disinformation seems to live.

52 is already at its limit, I think he'll be page 53 of Republican sexual predators, abusers, and enablers.

Currently covering video my dad took in the 80s and 90s to put on my media server.

I will likely be working on this project for quite a few years.

Just to add - this "hat" would also likely improve reception.

This is why Debian is my server of choice, and my work desktop of choice.

OP, There are some flavors of Debian out there that are more rapid release, like LMDE, Siduction, Sparky, even Kali (though I wouldn't recommend Kali as a primary desktop personally). Some based on Sid, some based on Testing.
