I mean I'm all for old guys flexing old guy knowledge. But I honestly feel sort of stupid for even trying to correct this one because it seems so fruitless.

Software lineage does have some interesting things in it and one of my favorite infographics is the Linux variations family tree they have over on Wikipedia. But I don't see any inherent value in tracking where browsers came from and who begot who from the biblical sense.

Back in the day this produced some really large controversies and led to heavy litigation... https://www.theringer.com/tech/2018/5/18/17362452/microsoft-antitrust-lawsuit-netscape-internet-explorer-20-years

But now a days you really just need to decide what is important to you and find the right browser. Performance, compatibility, privacy, customization, integration... Etc... there is a browser for pretty much any application you can think of and generally speaking you are going to have some massive give and takes between them. No such thing as a perfect browser, though Links probably got the closest. 😆

That's because it's not true. Firefox was first called firebird for a brief time... Otherwise its most closely related to the Mozilla browser... Netscape and mosaic aren't even related to each other... I don't know what this guy is smoking.

It wasn't, this guy hasn't a clue... Its original name was Firebird and they changed it to Firefox at version 3's release. You could argue that it is somehow related to the Mozilla browser since it came from a related team but the Mozilla Foundation was also responsible for SeaMonkey as well.

Mosaic was completely unrelated, same with netscape.

What do you think WMD means with regard to types of weaponry?

You need to reread my original reply.

Iraq produced various chemical weapons and had production warheads in various configurations including for their Short Range Ballistic Missile platform.. Production was suspended in the 90's. Many of these warheads are still present in Iraq today within sealed vaults which ISIS attempted to gain access to within the last five years.

Also... Yes they absolutely did pursue enrichment of uranium per their IAEA announced plans for a nuclear power program...

Zordon approves...

I don't think it's bad at all... It's a really interesting idea and could be really elevated thinking through the mechanics of it. I unfortunately have way too much time spent around combat machines so I can't unknow what I already know.

Yeah please don't stop refining the design... You could come up with some stabilizer mechanism or behavior for it... Like maybe it folds into a squat position for firing... Or perhaps there is some sort of staking mechanism that it deploys from its feet into the ground.

You could look at the tripod design used on mortar or artillery systems the feet on it basically use like a backwards hoof that uses the recoil from the weapon to embed in the ground and prevent push back.

Forward firing main battle guns like this are crazy powerful... There are sometimes a huge number of recoil absorbing designs incorporated into the main chassis of the vehicle as well.

Come up with a cool story for how it works and work through some of those details please... This guy is cool as shit and the actual art of it is great.

Lol this thing would fall over any time that main gun was fired....

At least give it a "tail" that it could use to stabilize itself for firing.

I don't know what year the Colonial Marines invaded Vietnam, but color me impressed...
