Free Friday - HomeSchool Deals
It's Friday and there's a great website with free resources just waiting for your click.
Today's clickable is all about Home Schoolers! The site is Free HomeSchool Deals. It's actually a mix of links to free stuff and and discounted items around the internet.
The site is easy to follow and well laid out. Since it is a site that collates resources and sends you to other web sites, make sure you read their terms of service, which is located at the bottom before you begin gobbling up the goodies.
Also, make sure that you are using a good ad blocker and anti-virus before you download anything to your computer. As always, run it through VirusTotal before you set it free on your computer.
It sounds like a lot of warnings, but there's a lot of good stuff on the site and with some basic security precautions, you can really find the gems.

Fiday Freebie - Random Choice
Hello Friday! It's hot and when it's hot nobody wants to engage their brain. Well, I don't.
Ever need to make a choice, but a coin flip isn't going to do the job because there are more than two choices? Go Random Choice. It's dead simple, has no ads, and it works.

FOSS Friday - Waterfox
Happy Friday! I'm here to spread some freedom!
In May (weekend of the 4th and 5th) Firefox had a problem that broke almost of their extensions. I am a heavy user of those extensions. The loss of those extensions broke the internet for me. It left me using Chrome and Chromium, which isn't bad, but it's not what I prefer.
So, I decided to give Waterfox, a fork of Firefox, a try!
I also said that I'd give you all an update on my experiences with various browsers. I've been using Waterfox as a daily browser since May and I love it. It behaves exactly like Firefox and I'm able to use all of my lovely extensions. Some of the extensions take a bit of fiddling, but if you aren't a power user, you probably won't need to.
One of the nice things about Waterfox is the lack of corporate apps included on install. There's no Pocket.
I like it because it lends itself to choice and risk. It doesn't tell you what you are allowed to do because you will be taking a risk. I can easily install extensions and plug-ins that are not on the Firefox white-list. Waterfox treats you like a grown-up.
In addition to the extensions available at the Mozilla site, Waterfox maintains a collection of archived addons.
The devs are responsive and have a subReddit for support. They post frequently on their blog.
Waterfox is available for Windows, Mac and Linux.
All in all, it's a great substitute for Firefox.
