The more I look at what’s coming out of Mozilla these days, the less it looks like a company with any clue on what it’s doing or why.

How does this improve on “Print to PDF” built into every browser and/or OS?

Now correct for population density, because right now, all you have is a population “heatmap”.

Poka yoke?

I found hundreds of maps of the First Nations People of Australia, including language groups, but was not able to discover any official map, which is not surprising given how counting the population worked in Australia. All maps show that the “uninhabited” area was just as densely populated as the rest of the continent.

Hmm … the “uninhabited” region.

Not sure whom you’re replying to here, but I can tell you that the Australian Tax legislation is absolutely massive to account for such “loopholes”. There was an enquiry into this and I believe that most of the recommendations have been ignored. I do not think that globally there is an appetite to actually fix this, because those in charge have amassed their wealth from the exisiting tax infrastructure and there is no incentive to address the inequities surrounding this, since the majority of those who vote are subject to the same tax code.

To me the issue is caused by how we determine how much tax is paid.

If you’re wealthy, you can structure your income in such a way that you are not earning any and therefore don’t need to pay tax on that “non-existent” income.

It’s also how the multinational companies structure their finances to make little or no profit except in the lowest taxing country around where “all” their “profits” are taxed.

In other words, we need to restructure the tax system globally to measure income and profit differently instead.

With the current crop of Neanderthals in charge, it’s unlikely to happen in our lifetime unless something drastically changes. I’m not holding my breath.

What’s your point?

Some of it is still in a museum.

I’m fluent in Dutch and at no point in the supplied link is there any reference to eating anything.

Attempted murder, torture, court, death, body parts being sold, heart being cut out and displayed for years, yes … eating, not so much.

No … just more in focus…

My gender goal is that we build a society where your gender matters less than your hair colour and that your hair colour is a matter of personal preference.

How do you know your mom didn’t prank you with the other set of keys from inside the house 😇

Are you happy?

I now write a date on them, so when I next lay eyes on it, I can decide if enough time has passed.

I recently returned an item purchased four years ago in its original packaging. No doubt I’ll milk that experience for the next 20 years to justify my box hoarding 😇

Also perfectly fine: No tie at all.

Meh, blame their phone, not your account.

I once sat in a technical audience where the supposedly technical speaker was explaining why our national organisation shouldn’t use Google Ads on our website. He explained that the ads were inappropriate, because when he tested, it only showed ads for women’s night wear.

The audience stayed very, very quiet.

Afterwards nobody had the courage to explain that the advertising was linked to the browser, not the website.

You can do whatever makes you feel beautiful.
