Disney has a long history of being an enemy of content freedom, most notably how they twisted and manipulated copyright law to something distincly NOT in public interest, for their own pocketbooks.

Before you buy that e-book from Amazon, do yourself a favor and see if the publisher has a website with direct sales.

Let me talk out the architecture I've got planned for my "Haphaestus" browser engine for TVs & eReaders.

I'll tackle the rendering engine first, so let's start there.

I plan to use GPU-rendering to avoid the need for more complex optimizations elsewhere. Rendering all the "fragment" pixels (in GLSL) for each element simultaneously is an unusual programming paradigm, but should be easy enough!

I'll parse relevant CSS properties directly into GLSL input within this module.

@alexandra So we have invented this essentially undeletable database, it's horribly inefficient but it works, right, so shouldn't we be using it to record all of humanity's knowledge as well as evidence of crimes against humanity, instead of using it for funding ransomware and making a few people richer?

After three decades of using email I just sent my first message using the protocol directly by talking to an SMTP server interactively and typing in all the commands by hand.

Have to say, was actually simpler than setting up some of the email clients I’ve used over the years :)
