There was recently a CCC talk [1] about sustainability of software,... there was mentioned, streaming a video is almost as toxic as driving 20 km forth and back.

He is such a inspiring legend, shining beside Edward and the other fighting friends, for freedom and a better world. I love Aaron for his spirit and the mission he lived.

For anyone, who hasn't seen the documentary [1], I can recommend it!
