It’s ok, I’m not an exception. I’m talking about baselines here. I actually care about both groups. Are you pissed? Don’t show it to the customer, come yelling at me, I’m paid for that.

5 years customer service manager, over a hundred reports, 4 years before that in B2B customer service. And yes, I am radical. I know what I'm doing.

I have CD-Rs more than twice as old that work just fine. Would I place my bet on it? No. But it's not set in stone.

Many graphic design professionals stick with older software, and hardware. I still use CS5 on Win 7, although I'm no longer actively pursuing career in the industry. I know a renowned typographer who still uses FontLab (v5 I think?) on

Let’s say I make a painting and put it in the drawer, never to be seen again. Do I lose the copyright then and someone is permitted to come to my home and take it away? That’s just one example of possible implications. My point being, trade

Sure, there are forks such as LibreWolf. I understand the reservations regarding Mozilla Foundation, although I generally like what they've been doing. Every org has people with stupid ideas. However, the way I see it, it's unlike
