Posture is wrong for what a person would be doing normally evolutionarily. You can’t put your weight on something that far forward and down since you’ll roll backwards and the closer foot position drives your knees into your chest instead of under your arms.
I wasn’t targeting squatty potty specifically, you could use an upside down trashcan to get the same effect as one of those. Two inverted 3 gallon buckets on each side of the bowl with a board bolted between them would be like the lilipad.







What those drivers do is patented in the US. See MPEG licensing. VLC is based in the EU which does not have a mechanism for software patents that do not solve a physical problem (moving bits around isn’t patentable there) so they can avoid issues. Microsoft, Corel, and Nero would not be able to do that, they have assets in the US, even if it would only be a bank account.
I would not be surprised if codec licensing would not allow shipping with old and open codecs like MJPEG, Theora and AV1 with an addon for the proprietary codecs.
