I've always thought of these as basically a protection racket. Probably not literally, but close enough.

Aren't they fairly quiet to the passengers?

(the sound being behind the plane)

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

What's the point?

If your neighbour's donkey is eating your flowers you're entitled to ask them to move their fat ass.

My assumption is that it's setting up an object to map element selectors -> callbacks.

    
var specialElementHandlers = {
  '#editor': function() {
    return true;
  }
};

  

But yeah, could be something as

    
var specialElementHandlers = Object.assign({}, defaultHandlers, {
  '#editor': function() {
    return true;
  }
}; // missing closing parenthesis

The way you word it suggests that donations to Mozilla are expressly forbidden from being spent on Firefox. Which I doubt is true.

But yes, many would prefer to donate specifically for Firefox development than into a general pool for Mozilla to allocate as they choose.

My brain skipped as I read Brennan and tabletop in the same sentence and jumped to Dropout/Dimension 20.

Even the phrase "improving the situation in Gaza" can be ambiguous.

Marginal at best when everything is made elsewhere and requires fossil fuels for transport.

Get an S/MIME certificate and send from an S/MIME compatible email client.

They're kinda addressable in that the electron beam scans across a line, and every through each line, with a pulse activating the (iirc phosphor) at the pixel for the desired colour.

I think the alternative: copyright should be looser. It usually only benefits corporations and lawyers.

Though it would be naive to consider AI companies and ally in a goal to reduce copyright terms.

When does a colloquial term become a non-colloquial? Usage by government/official contexts?

In August 2022, Minister of Immigration Michael Wood referred to 85,000 holders of recently approved New Zealand 2021 resident visas as "new Kiwis".

New Zealand -> Kiwi.
