Around 10 hours of light web browsing on quiet mode.

New Go's won't have detachable controllers? That's unfortunate. I use mine like a tablet. There's no other small Linux-capable tablet that I know of.

edit: actually onexplayer makes similar ones.

Firefox becomes slow after a couple of weeks open in c/[email protected]

I had the same problem recently. Especially the youtube UI became very unresponsive and would take several seconds to respond. I have 96G ram...

I downloaded ESR instead. So far so good.

China freed Tibet's people from a brutal slave-owning theocracy. That's what happened.

Mozilla Firefox removes "Do Not Track" Feature support: Here's what it means for your Privacy in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

sending the Do Not Track signal may impact your privacy.

They already send your graphics card name, driver version, installed fonts, screen resolution, browser window resolution, its absolute position on screen, your local network ip, local time, languages installed, orientation sensor, and a million other things.

But somehow a simple flag like DNT is a priority for Mozilla?

Doesn't make much sense to me to be honest

Downloads making Firefox increasingly sluggish during downloading files (lemmy.ml)

I'm running the Ubuntu snap version of Firefox and recently I've had a problem where the more files I download the more sluggish downloads become. When I download a file now, even a few KB, Firefox becomes unresponsive for a few seconds, including video in other windows freezing. For longer downloads, Firefox is unresponsive the entire time. During downloads Firefox uses 1 core 100% in htop and about:performance shows "Firefox" using 100%

Clearing all data in settings doesn't help

Clearing the list of downloaded files doesn't help.

Deleting the profile fixes it, but the problem comes back as I download files.

I have a policies.json file that sets some privacy related settings and installs 3 addons ([email protected], [email protected], @testpilot-containers).

I also have a hosts file that blocks all mozilla domains (except addons.mozilla.org)

I have a fast CPU, tons of ram and a nvme drive.

I'm not really sure how to debug this?

Update reset keywords.enabled? (lemmy.ml)
 

I deliberately set keywords.enabled to false so that misspelled urls don't end up at google, but now I just noticed that it's enabled again.

Is this a setting that gets reset over updates?

Can any devs comment?

X11 WMs as plugins for a wayland compositor? (lemmy.ml)
 

Okay, Wayland is the future, blah blah.

Would it be possible/make sense to make a Wayland compositor that would emulate a X11 server so a X11 WM could talk to it and be used to manage windows?

I'm just thinking about how we could make sure that the tons of obscure but cool WMs survive the waypocalypse.

Are PressTV and RT banned? Is there a list of banned sites and tech used? (lemmy.ml)
 

I can't seem to access https://www.presstv.ir/ or https://www.rt.com/

Are these banned in the UK?

Is there a list of sites banned in the UK (whether by ofcom or any other agency or company)?

I couldn't find any news stories or discussions about this. How does the UK banning people from being able to access foreign news sites apparently just fly under the radar?

What is the technology used?

Thanks.
