I've got to say the Awesome Bar should have a first run demo of some kind. Once I got familiar with it I can't go back to anything else. Firefox has too many features for it's own good and it's sad so few people know abo

You were saying... http://imgur.com/a/vFobm See the column headings. These values even sync across devices on Firefox.

What would you like to seem improved in the bookmark manager? I'm currently working on the ability to rename the bookmarks inline in the tree instead of the input boxes on bottom in the Bookmark Manager (the one you get from Ctrl+Shift

If you're using Firefox you have native separators for bookmarks.

Firefox is looking to integrate an auto-redirect to the Wayback Machine in case of link-rot. There's a Test Pilot experiement going on and it may be extended to allow for auto-saving of bookmarks on the Wayback Machine when bookmarked.

Do you have any opinions on what an open bookmark format should cover? I'd like to hear those. Could be a good and relatively simple project I could mentor on.

by hashhar 10y ago
Absolutely yes. It serves two primary purposes for me: 1. Archival. If I like something and will need to refer to it/revisit it later (more than a month, say) I will bookmark it. 2. Frequently used pages sit neatly on my bookmarks bar

Compare the length and complexity of any of those links to any other random legal terms on the internet. I found the Firefox Terms of Use much easier to comprehend than Visual Studio, let alone quite a lot shorter.

Because Mozilla's goal is to keep the web open and advocate for personal data privacy. This article fits nicely there with the rest of similarly themed articles on the blog.

You'll be so amazed when you discover FontConfig fallback. You can tell freetype to use certain fonts as fallbacks if the font you are using doesn't provide a certain glyph. [1]: https://github.com/gabrielelana&#x2

Yes. It uses apt but do you realise that you didn't install it using APT? You used plain dpkg but it now registers itself with APT (I think using something similar to a PPA) so that you can autoupdate. EDIT: Sorry if this sounded accus

VSCode, Atom, Firefox etc. do this but they all provide sane and easy methods to disable the behaviour. It's as simple as unchecking a box (or toggling a string in VSCode). It's not mandatory in those products unlike Chrome and Dr

Sorry being so late to recommend it but I think you'll like Qutebrowser.

Depends on where you use it. All file backed content (ie. repo data) does not use it, while the communications systems (PRs and issues) use it.

I agree with your view. Most of the programming language constructs and ideologies are simply design patterns that been extracted into a single unit and given a particular name.

by hashhar 10y ago
Well, of course. It's just a common pattern that I've observed (mostly in the npm packages and linux cli tools).

Yep, that's it! XD

The /r/trees and /r/marijuanaenthusiasts are a very funny bunch. That's like their tagline. XD There are two other such pairs but I can't remember (something to do with potatoes maybe?).

You do need Reddit Enhancement Suite installed to enjoy it to the fullest. XD That was fun.

It's basically high quality shitposting. You make up technical terms (remember "flux-capacitor") and bring up elaborate ideas.

I can't believe this slipped under me. In all the years I've been on reddit I never once came as far as 4th world, let alone 1000th.

On that last statement of yours, keep this as a rule of thumb: If an API, 1.0 means stable. If an application, 1.0 means fully featured (as dictated by the author or community).

Huh, mine respects my hosts. That's how I set up adblocking before they brought extensions in.

You'll be surprised how many people don't know that you can use IMAP with desktop clients. I'm not saying about the parent comment but just sharing an anecdote.

Hah, you've never seen what would happen to Chrome on similar workloads. But yes, your RAM usage is spectacularly high compared to mine beacause I have 326 tabs open right now (90 something loaded in memory) and FF is using 1.1 GB (750

Firefox works very good for me in this workflow. I have it set to open to previously open tabs and windows so that I don't have to periodically bookmark everything at the end of the day and Firefox doesn't crash on startup like Ch

Oh, sorry for being unclear. Being a dynamic website, I rolled my own simple comment system (mainly to learn, I eventually replaced it with Discourse). Thanks for recommending OpenShift. I'll be getting my first paycheck in July and wi

I too think that and that was one of the reasons I moved to Ghost. But I'm a broke and cheap student who doesn't pay for a VPS or hosting provider currently so I have temporarily (until I join a job in July) moved back to a simple
