I have been building browsers for 30 years now. First Opera and now Vivaldi. My estimate is that more than 1 billion have used one of my browsers or both. Have you?
Sepsal jsem důvody, proč si myslím, že by měl Firefox dostal zase šanci. Ať už od těch, kteří ho v minulosti opustili, nebo od těch, kteří ho nikdy ani nezkusili.
Which is the best browser for #productivity? #Privacy? Customization?
This comparison will help solve this mystery 💪
#Speed, #usability, and #security are important factors to consider when comparing web browsers. However, choosing the best #webbrowser requires taking more factors into consideration.
I got my Spotify wrapped recently and it was almost identical to 2022 (a year of lazy listening) and completely lacking some of my most favourite genres.
So, if you have the time, I'd love some suggestions of Classical music to listen to. Old, new, opera, just anything you enjoy. Playlists welcome too.
I would like to state for the record that just because I bought #opera tickets within an hour of Opera North sending me a marketing email, doesn’t mean I wasn’t about to buy them anyway…
This month it is 30 years since I started working on browsers. April 1994 is when Geir and I started working on the Opera browser. We founded the company a year later.
Initially I made the UI, while Geir did a lot of the core.
Since that time I have dedicated myself to making the Web live up to its potential. First at Opera and now at Vivaldi.
If you ever used Opera and you have not tried Vivaldi, I invite you to give us a try!
If you never used Opera or Vivaldi, you are invited as well!
Disturbing, noticed across theatre and live music too. I wonder if the pandemic shifted many people's entertainment habits to online stuff they can do from home.

I hadn’t realised that the ending of La rondine would be so brutally abrupt. Explains why an #opera with such beautiful music isn’t more widely celebrated…

Watching 'This is Opera' on Prime and the way he travels got me thinking. Imagine a world tour of #opera, seeing operas in the cities they're associated with (I e. based in, composers home, first shown there, spiritual home) with each being shown by a local company and exploring each city you visit while there.
Imagine; Bohéme in Paris, Tosca in Rome, Turandot in Beijing (or Milan), The Barber of Seville, Traviata in Venice (so not to double up on Paris), Madame Butterfly in Nagasaki etc etc
I'm going down to #NYC tomorrow for my uncle's birthday and taking him to the #opera, opening night of La Forza del Destino at the #MetropolitanOpera. He's been a huge opera fan for most of his life, and he can't really get there on his own anymore, and I think this may be the first time he's going since the start of the pandemic, so this is a Big Deal. I am a bundle of nerves; there's so much that could go wrong! 1/6

Listening to what must be one of the most difficult pieces to perform. I may be wrong. I'm new to opera. But it seems one would need one heck of a vocal range to perform it.
