Latest breakage I noticed is spacebar not pausing YouTube videos on Firefox but works fine on Chrome.

Last time I did a DOM benchmark Chrome still beat it by a significant margin. Also, only personal experience, but Chrome seems way more responsive with multiple tabs open than Firefox. One annoying thing is that current versions of Firefox

Seems like the discovery of this vuln was a direct result of yesterday's discussion about HTTPS on apt here on HN ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18958679 ).

Not sure how the fee works in Paris to this demographic, but elder people will usually rather use the bus probably.

Even though replay attacks will be of no use after some time, one could MITM during the vulnerable timeframe to prevent a critical (0day) security update from happening and therefore gaining control over the system, so if you're specia

Previously, some editions had different profile folders while others shared the same. i.e. Firefox Developer had its own profile, but Nightly and Firefox shared the same, which was a PITA for the latter case. Now all editions (thankfully) w

Oh, that does make sense. In that case, having the app run the background really does seem like a waste when compared to leaving the OS to do this task.

That's a Firefox feature, please disable it in settings (maybe you accidentally enabled it?) Regardless, the website should probably capture the keys instead of letting that happen, I'm not well-versed in JS DOM events enough to k

I don't see how including the driver inside the compiled kernel image can NOT make the resulting linux OS bigger than not including the compiled driver. External modules (on the fs) wont, but we're talking about the bundled ones,

I tested the demo and it seems the associated javascript function to prompt someone to install a software is no longer present in Firefox (netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege). I question the utility of having this delay beha

Nope, loaded for me just fine on Chrome 70 and Firefox 62. Tested on a Win10 machine.

Because social media is simply one of the vast amount of websites on the internet, it's unfair to tax it alone. Either you tax the whole internet comsumption (e.g. every 5GB or something like that) or you don't. Imagine taxes spec

Just out of curiosity, how do you know this? Is it some kind of measurement you made yourself, written on Intel docs somewhere or something else? I've been wondering about how much instructions cost lately and would like to be able to

But as pointed out in the article, JS method of detecting if your page was embbeded is a bit unreliable.

It should be obvious enough, but perhaps you missed: you can install a browser, such as an old version of opera, by fetching its installer over the internet via ReactOS builtin "program downloader" (I do not remeber its name). If

Doesn't play nice with mobile handsets on portrait orientation. Each row is actually rendered as 3 rows. A (hacky?) fix would be `overflow-x: scroll` I guess.
