    The skies are pretty clear where I live. Few years ago while looking at Perseids, lying down in an olive orchard looking straight up, I was fixed for 20-30 seconds at a point I could not explain. There were two dots up there, both were of size...

    It does look useful. I read that it is based on the extensive hardware knowledge of the AIDA64 for Windows application. Is there a FreeBSD version?

    It was admittedly sloppy wording on my side. 1) The web developer should be dictating generic family names in their html/css (not specific font names) 2) The web browser should then read these generic family names and requesting an appropriate...

    You can, but some sites refuse to load if you block remote fonts. Just for testing, block fonts.google.com and watch how many sites refuse to load.
