Yeah, I'm not doing that. It looks like a great way to weaken my entire password manager's security by extending its attack surface by a lot.

Yes, this happens to me on m.youtube.com with Firefox for Android.

This “You may not upload, download, transmit, display, or grant access to content that includes graphic depictions of sexuality or violence” looks like pure madness. An online reproductive biology course is going to feature depictions of sexuality; we're not allowed to bookmark university courses with Pocket now? Many movies explore sex and violence; syncing my Netflix password with Firefox Sync, let alone streaming through “their” VPN technically “grants me access” to that. Hell, even bookstores feature “content that included graphic depictions” of all sorts of sex and violence. What kind of stone-age regression to puritanical fundamentalism is happening inside Mozilla for them to come up with this nonsense!?

Btw, anyone subscribed to Mozilla VPN should know it's just Mullvad VPN sold at twice the price.

Isn't this a far-right meme? I remember a mentally challenged Twitter user self-publishing a book based on it.

You might want to listen to Cory Doctorow's talk on the enshitification on the internet before you apply that word to Firefox.

Sorry I only have this generic troubleshooting point to offer, but have you checked to see if NetworkManager might be modifying your IP routing table in unwanted ways during its operation?

From what you've described I'm under the impression that no Internet traffic needs to run through this system; perhaps NM is adding an unwanted default route?

This is correct.

I experience the same frustration on desktop too, on different websites. Perhaps more often when I try to select a title or heading. Another way in which the web had turned to shite.

Thank you for the links to Wikipedia and identity.com on that other thread. I've yet to wrap my head around how zero-knowledge proof could work for such a basic assertion as "user is of legal age", which calls for a 0 or 1 answer. It seems very different from the examples given of polynomial computations to prove knowledge of an exponent in a complex math expression. I can't see what could prevent any client to simply lie about the answer here.

Dude come on. Make an effort. If you really haven't a clue then start by reading the KDE developer's blog "Pointiest Stick" and github user Probonopd and his article + links https://gist.github.com/probonopd/9feb7c20257af5dd915e3a9f2d1f2277

Yup, you are correct . See this discussion: https://lemmy.ml/comment/7209860

Maybe there should be a separate Lemmy instance for children.

That being said, I've heard that Nancon's Robocop is pretty decent. Has anyone played it?

Oh yeah, right. That's the problem. Consumers have too much choice now. It's not at all that 90% of those gamed now are badly lacking compared to what we used to have. It's not at all that publishers feel it's okay now to release unfinished products and continue development haphazardly after the game is put on sale. It's not at all that this leads to execs either pulling these dev resources as soon as the game had made good money to put these resources either on new projects or on DLC development. It's not at all that the industry has been pandering to the lowest common denominator for twenty years, making games that lack a challenge and reward you for nothing. It's not at all that games are produced by executives with business degrees rather than by extraordinarily passionate and talented creative typed like George Broussard, Chris Sawyer or John Carmack. It's not at all that in-game purchases through micro-transactions or even large transactions has skewed the incentive structures for both player and developer.

No, it's those pesky consumers, they've been given too much choice, they've become spoiled and entitled, so they won't be content with whatever crap a studio puts out, now. They won't just play the game and shut up.

I stand corrected and I appreciate it.

FWIW I'm both a resident of France, where I remember reading in L'obs (center-left weekly political-focused magazine that—usually—does quality reporting) that Elisabeth Borne has a female significant as if she had made no efforts to hide it. I'm guessing now that it's one if those open parisian secrets (L'Obs has always been derided as being somewhat of a champagne socialist—here we say "caviar left"—outlet and it's true that it targets mainly the concerns of the upper middle class and above), that Elisabeth Borne didn't want to go national,

...And an American citizen who truly loves American journalism on the whole. In France there's just nothing like The Atlantic, or Conde Nast publications, or NYMag, or even The Verge, or passionate Substackers; there's hardly anyone as independent-minded Jesse Singal, or Katie Herzog, or Jonathan Haidt...

EDIT: Went back and checked said article from L'Obs, dated October 2022. It does in fact go no further than to mention "rumors of her homosexuality that floated around newsrooms". Total case of brain dysfunction on my part, I can only apologize. And downvote myself in atonement.

And I really wish people would stop being so self-centered as to request that news reporters use phrasing that be so imprecise as to be potentially untrue just to suit their whiny whims. You sound like you're so eager to introduce this little speech code of yours that you're asking the world to act and talk like non-outed gay people don't exist and never did. How more backwards can you get?

Nope. The Prime Minister right before him was also openly gay. Could US journalists be bothered to do a little research instead of parrotting one another on this topic?

Yeah, drugs/pharmaceuticals are a very big market.

Long live Firefox and high praises to all those who develop, maintain and package it.

Release notes: “Firefox now defaults to the Wayland compositor [...] It is also a known issue that windows are not correctly placed when restoring a previous session on launch.” I had been led to believe that one of Wayland's strengths was solving the correct window coordinates save-and-restore problem. Does someone know what happened here?
