   I've started on my own vertical tabs addon that can handle many thousands of tabs. Still work in progress...

   The reason I have thousands of tabs open is that Firefox stopped losing tabs on crash/restart in recent years... a decade or more ago this would not be a "problem".

   I hope it works when I disable javascript (it's no code after all).

   Rendering future times as local time already has a problem where the timezone (DST) could potentially change.

   I think this is not a bad question...

   Or just force the use of HTTP/S proxy.

    Also need to block all hosts not allowed by your own DNS server. Also need to give each "untrusted" app a separate local IP (in future: must have NAT for IPv6 too).

    There is a great example of "start" command that has a very uncool feature when using double quotes.

    Yes, for Europe you need keyboard with ISO layout (upside down Enter + extra key).

    2 buttons + trackpoint in the middle would be a viable alternative IMO.

    You would need to standardize passing of current root as a file handle, I think? Probably will break some software...

    Can't see the article, but for me the reason why XML is bad (still not as bad as YML) is the lack of support for some control characters. Char ::= #x9 | #xA | #xD | [#x20-#xD7FF] | [#xE000-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#x10FFFF] There&#x27

    You can't stop anyone from doing what he describes if you allow customers to see the invoice number. IMO, your sequential sequence number should be for tax audit purposes only.

    IMO, SNI should only be added at the firewall (using HTTPS proxy, for example), so the network operator can monitor/filter which hosts are being accessed.

    Check out interter ACs. Good ones should scale from 20-100% in power or better, so should be able to stay on for most of the time.

    I'll do it too, for my own network. But adding it at firewall would be a good/acceptable idea... Currently this probably means running HTTP/S proxy.

    yup, will have to block eSNI (disable all hosts on firewall unless looked up on local DNS, per application)

    I believe there are limits to recursion (as mentioned in link above), so not strictly true. Perhaps they are too big?

    Removal of KEYGEN feature from Firefox and other browsers was a major mistake in this regard. My bank(s) used password+client certificate, but now they have switched to proprietary mobile OTP apps. (also due to some directives). For some st

    The only alternative would be some kind of distributed torrent index. But would need to work in a browser to be accessible to people. So, unless browsers add first class support for this, this means a web site with ads, probably and then yo

    It would be interesting if they could be done per core... So one could reserve 1 core for JS and also down-clock it to a minimum.
