  1. I'm in the same boat as you. I was using Firefox ever since it was called Firebird. I immediately switched to LibreWolf when this news came out. The Mozilla Foundation has missed so many opportunities over the past decade to become the prominent alternative to big tech and their abuses. Instead, what Mozilla chose to do is lazily siphon easy money off from Google while actively avoiding doing anything that might rock the boat. I think it would be amazing if Firefox got sold off to a privacy focused, big-tech-fighting, European-based nonprofit like Proton. Although at this point maintaining such a legacy behemoth like Firefox would be super expensive. Apparently there's still some legacy code in there from the Netscape days? Yikes. It might be easier to support a brand new browser rendering engine like Ladybird. I will say though for all the disparaging things I've had to say about Mozilla, they did bring us some innovations like the Rust programming language. This timeline we're in is so distressing.
  2. This is the first ReMix in a good while to put a huge smile on my face throughout the whole song. Thank you for this, Diggi Dis.
  3. Congratulations to the OCR community! Only a handful of online communities make it to their teen years and still manage to stay as active and as vibrant as ever. I remember visiting OverClocked ReMix for the first time back when it was barely even a year old, and djpretzel released a brand new Yoshi's Island ReMix in honor of the start of the new millennium. I loved video game music, and I had never heard anything like this in my entire life. I was kind of new to this whole internet thing. I was so young, so naive. It was a magical time to be alive.
  4. NBC. Comcast owns both G4 and NBC. I wouldn't be surprised if at this point Comcast just kills G4 entirely. There's really no reason to keep it going at this point, is there?
  5. First of all I want to say I've been a longtime fan of OverClocked ReMix for over a decade and have appreciated everything this community has done. I'm not very involved with the community itself, but I do lurk around from time to time and appreciate everything you guys do. Larry, you're one of the good ones. So anyway, I just registered today because while integrating this marvelous torrent of music into my iTunes library I stumbled upon one big problem with one of the ReMixes. Our very own djpretzel's EarthBound 'Twoson Hits the Road' ID: OCR01427 has the last 36 seconds chopped off of it! Turns out it's not actually a problem with the torrent, but a problem that is site-wide with the database. All the mirrors and the MD5 checksum match the shorter, corrupt version that is 2 minutes 43 seconds long. However, if you preview the song on YouTube, you get the full 3:19 version. I felt obligated to let you guys know! I hate to see such an awesome torrent (and awesome ReMix) have a glaring flaw.
