I also am in this camp, and used the "compact" UI theme previously. With editing the- about:config I have the new tab theme, and the compact UI once again. And if anyone is also trying this route - change `browser.uidensity` to 1

I've gotten somewhat hit or miss with finding my profile_id via the inspect element in FireFox, and then just appending it onto the end of the url. However, I'm not sure if it's because my account was created at end of June 2

Considering how dark it is in winter mornings, I'd rather us just keep year-round off of DST instead. I say this while living in the geographic center of the country, and certainly for some people who live further north, I'd doubt

Under "real" capitalism, the general idea is that monopolization would indeed occur sooner, as the oversight that the government would have would lack to exist. The Sprint/T-Mobile merger that was proposed a decade ago was de

As a recent college grad, I remember when I used to play Roblox as a middle school student with my best friend back in the day. I tried for nostalgia's sake to see how the game is present day. While I am somewhat lacking in understandi

Firefox has been a great web browser for me, as the synced tabs over devices has been useful. And while Google still likely has some of my data, I've switched to DuckDuckGo and Firefox full time now.

I've been using Pop_OS for the past few months, and haven't had any issues resembling this whatsoever. Of course my clipboard gets overwritten if I don't use a utility that saves previous text selections, but I don't rec

Apple, when you had repairs for a device, rather than repairing it, have actually ended up just throwing away the old device in favor of swapping for a new one. The past 6 years, they've made devices with no serviceable parts. Your RA

The best sound that I reminisce was the PlayStation 2 startup[0]. The sound was oddly terrifying as a child, and you booted it up in the dark. But I guess the nostalgia makes me miss it. In addition, Windows XP and Windows 7 were the two m
