The grandparent comment was regarding that the average user doesn’t read release notes and I was remarking that Firefox users are not average. Now I agree that this change is not being communicated properly but to claim that the Firefox use

The lack or nonstandard support for extensions. But looking into it, I see that it looks like at least Gnome Web now can support extensions. Currently not using Gnome or KDE on my Linux install though.

Do you have an example? I would like to double check my own browser to see if anything has been changed without my knowledge or permission.

Thanks for sharing this. It seems absurd that you needed a browser extension to manage your desktop environment and window manager theme. If only Xfce supported wayland.

The average user isn’t using Firefox to begin with. In fact 5% market share for Mozilla is probably pretty generous. I agree with you that Mozilla has certainly dropped the ball regarding this change. Much like pocket, the Mr Robot ARG, the

It’s more or less ideological on my part. There being only 1 browser engine is something I would like to avoid. And unless Safari becomes available on Linux (or that Orion browser from the makers of Kagi), Firefox is the only other option.

Firefox is lagging behind on enterprise configuration options. Adding in additional features that allow sysadmins to deploy policies that can further control Firefox like Chrome and Edge could be potentially behind why this is happening. Th

It is increasingly frustrating but in my opinion Firefox is the only usable browser. The ads and other nonsense, despite being pushed out often, are still user controllable and once configured, I have always had my settings honored. You can

This isn’t just their extension, if I am reading this correctly it is any extension(that hasn’t been vetted by Mozilla) is capable of being blocked from running due to this this new quarantined domain list that Firefox 115 has. However this

Here’s a video[0] showcasing a roleplay heavy playing of Delve if you want to get a good feel for how it works. Fantastic tabletop game in my experience. Definitely unique. [0]: https://youtu.be/egU3-sPmFUw

Small correction, the original Copyright Act of 1790 was a 14 year term, with the option to renew it once more for another 14 year term or 28 years total. The Copyright Act of 1831 was an extension of the original copyright term from 14 yea

You can at least read the restaurant menu on Facebook without signing in. Twitter is now going for a LinkedIn/Instagram kind of thing where you don’t even get a “free hit”.

At first, I thought this was the toy language Hurl[0] and was shocked the developer made it to version 4 so quickly. Really cool tool built with curl. Certainly could replace a bash script or two with something more robust. [0]: https:&#x2

Inflation is still happening, it is just that based on this report the rate of price increases is less than it was last month and year over year.

Ideally you would only reference NBER economic reports, however those come out years after the fact.

And that is important. Usability and simplicity is important for adoption. Every security layer we add does in fact strip away a layer of convenience. In my opinion, learning to use a password manager has effectively eliminated dozens if no

Bitwarden, and keepassxc, support adding TOTP tokens to an account entry. Allowing you to only use the password manager for authentication, no secondary device or application necessary.

The trick is the end user of the third party app doesn’t have to pay. The app developer is the one being charged by Reddit. If you have 10,000 users that Reddit in 30 days is going to charge you $250,000 per month to continue allowing your

I’m no fan of the life of the author plus 70 years copyright regime we have today but the Brothers Grimm died roughly 70 years before Disney started making cartoons. So that is still something possible to do in roughly 20 years.

I thought this updated blog post on password strength was interesting. I am disappointed they do not discuss the strength of using a diceware[0] based passphrase. Even limiting yourself to 4-letter words in your custom wordlist and using a

The pin or swipe pattern is used to unlock access to the private key that you actually use to sign in with. Much like having a pin to decrypt your ssh key. The article covers this by suggesting that users should configure multiple devices t

As a Bitwarden user this is a bit concerning. Looking into though, bitwarden matches the URI only to the top level domain. The example site has the same URI. A user entering credentials into a compromised website is equally vulnerable to th
