Day 49 of #The100DayProject
Outer space aliens are often depicted as something evil. That idea was brought to us by mostly white men and they have such often unfunded credibility in this world, that nobody bats an eye by that notion. But it’s human who want to concur the universe and those who can have bad intentions. I want to think of aliens as peaceful creatures who travel by #rocket that leave a trail of flowers

Sketch in sketchbook of Alien with 4 eyes in yellow rocket covered with green hearts which seems to be heading to earth. The dot to the right of the rocket which seems to resemble a planet, was actually a drop of water that fell on my sketch by accident and when I wiped it up resembled a planet 😅

FOSS NEWS

Mozilla launches Thundermail, a Gmail alternative email service with @thundermail email addresses, and Thunderbird Pro, which includes appointment scheduler, file sharing tools, and AI-powered features (Thunderbird Assist):

(POV it will be killed off after a short time like other Mozilla products lol. There's already Proton Mail, a privacy-focused mail service from a company with a better track record, more than 100 million users, also Tuta for those who don't mind it not being fully FOSS, so I don't really think Thundermail has a shot here, but nice try regardless, at least they try to have some source of income other than Google.)

Firefox 137 released with HEVC playback support on Linux, ability to identify all links in PDF files and turn them into hyperlinks, new options in the Browser Layout section under General settings (vertical tabs, show sidebar); some progressively rolled out features: sign PDF documents, calculator feature for address bar (now you don't have to open the Console tab of dev tools for that lol), tab grouping:

Firefox 138 beta available new contrast control (same colors for all websites) setting, support for copying links for background tabs using the tabstrip context menu on Linux and macOS, more tab grouping features, new “Report broken site” feature, etc.:

Day 39 of #The100DayProject #PastInktober With my oldest two I made a picture of them when they were still a baby amidst all toy animals, like the E.T. scene. When I tried to do that with my youngest, the older two insisted to join the photoshoot and #hide among the toys. It’s one of my favorite pictures from their childhood. I grabbed the wrong #FountainPen and it didn’t have waterproof ink in it. Oh well it gives nicely muted colours 😅😂 #WaterColour #Midori #InkyParker51

Day 35 of #The100DayProject The rumor that the Mayas thought 2012 would be the end of the world was not true. They did however think it was the start of a new cycle called bʼakʼtun lasting roughly 394 years. I remember telling colleagues in 2015 that we were heading towards a second dark ages. I’m convinced with all the denial of science that we are fully I. It now. The Mayans were imo not very wrong with their prediction…
