Last time I did the Newark to LAX flight it took and hour to trundle from the gate (left on time) to the end of the runway for take off.

The issue isnt padding its airport capacity.

Hi Bruce,

I'm pleased that this has gone your way.

All the best,

Disclaimer, I work for Canonical and worked with the VLC devs on the snap.

The snap of VLC is nearer 190MB, not 700MB for data-transfer and on-disk size comparisons. All snaps are loop-mounted squashfs files. What you are "du"ing is the mounted read-only files. The actual snap file is in `/var/lib/snapd/snaps/` and on my system is 189MB. The snap contains not only VLC but a bunch of libraries of course. However the bulk of the space (300MB uncompressed) is taken up by VLC plugins which make the snap a great out of the box experience of many users, whatever their use case.

Sure we need to optimise startup time, and that work is ongoing. We could certainly trim the snap down a bit, and I will be looking at that when I'm back from vacation.

Alot of those were bots so hardly a representative petition result

Who actually invented public key encryption first, oh yeah a British fella working for gchq one evening in his head cos he couldnt write it down

I'll take adverts when they stopping serving malware with them
Oh and when my page load times are under the magic 7 seconds with ad enabled

If they stop serving malware with the adverts I'll listen

"a stack of 500-euro notes worth $1 million weighs just five pounds and can be carried in a small bag"

Someone needs to get their units and measures sorted. To use 'stack', Euros, Dollars, Pounds (weight) and 'small' all in the same breath is hardly helpful!

I like the fact you think we might not already have considered that possibility:

I haven't seen zxcvbn mentioned before, a similar look at password strength from 3 years ago.

A "Swiss watch" means that it follows the 'Ordinance regulating the use of the name "Swiss" on watches', which also includes quartz watches.

It might be that in your locale it is commonly taken to mean a purely mechanical watch, but that isn't the same the whole world over.
