p1mrx,

There were some pull requests to fix that, but guys at Mozilla said that those pull requests lead to performance regressions and rejected that.

The latest PR was accepted in November, so IPv6 literals work in v122 alpha.

p1mrx,

I don’t get it.

It sounds like a “war for oil” joke, but why would the number of soldiers/gallon depend on the vehicle?

p1mrx,

Tuvalu only has 12,000 people. They could probably fit in the airport.

p1mrx,

if we continue to keep our focus on it, we can absolutely find and kill it, given a long enough timeframe.

Though most modern humans would probably get eaten by the cheetah.

p1mrx,

Keyboard shortcuts are not relevant, because I’m referring to the mouse-only zoom interface.

p1mrx,

Interesting, that does appear to solve the same problem.

In my decades of using web browsers, I can’t say that I’ve ever tried dragging text to the address bar. That’s not very discoverable, and the drag action messes with the page’s scroll position.

p1mrx,

Firefox’s ‘Open Link’ feature is quite limited compared to Chrome. For example, try navigating to lemmy.ml using the “[email protected]” link in the sidebar.

Even in cases where it works, it doesn’t preview the link target in the context menu.

p1mrx,

That doesn’t work in many cases, like the example in the screenshot.

p1mrx, (edited )

I don’t think .co versus .com is the relevant factor. I can select xample.co by itself, but not as a substring of http://www.example.com. The rules seem so arbitrary and context-dependent that it behaves more like a dice roll than a usable feature.

If a selection to URL feature cares about TLDs, IP addresses, or text beyond the selection range, then it’s operating at the wrong abstraction layer. (well, technically Goto foo has a couple lines of code to [bracket] bare IPv6 addresses, but that’s not core functionality.)

p1mrx,

When I highlight the trailing lemmy.ml and select Open Link in New Tab, Firefox takes me to sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected] (the original link target) instead of lemmy.ml

p1mrx,

‘New Tab’ is the default/only behavior currently.

I notice that Chrome supports Ctrl-click (background tab) and Shift-click (new window), and Firefox provides a modifiers array, so I think I could replicate this.

p1mrx,

I’ve added support for Ctrl/Command/Shift in v1.7, but the menu text is unchanged because I don’t know which keys are pressed prior to the click event. This matches Chrome’s behavior.

p1mrx,

That’s known as winter.

p1mrx,

Imagine a Beowulf cluster of these.

p1mrx,

Net positive, like driving toward a cliff at a slightly slower speed.

p1mrx,

It’s not like these elements are disappearing into the void. If we start running out of something, the price will increase, and we’ll either find alternatives or put more effort into recycling.

For example, see the increasing use of LiFePO4 batteries, without nickel or cobalt.

p1mrx,

Kyjov is 1000 km from Kyiv.

p1mrx,

I once had a roommate from India who saw “got milk?” on a carton, and thought it was goat milk.

That’s actually pretty confusing if you haven’t seen the commercials.

p1mrx,

They have used “BNL” officially. I recall they had an Enhanced CD (maybe Rock Spectacle) with a video that began “This is BNL TV”, but I can’t find a copy on the internet.

p1mrx,

Fear not, spacecraft implosions are very unlikely.

p1mrx,

What would stop a MITM attacker from replacing the key? The server can’t sign the key if it doesn’t know which domain the client is trusting.

p1mrx,

They mostly shit CO₂, which thankfully doesn’t cause any problems.

p1mrx,

Slowly, gently, aisles unfold their wonders,
Grasp them, see them, beneath fluorescent numbers.
Turn your gaze away from the bustling street outside,
Turn your steps to where deals and savings bide,
And listen to the checkout scanner glide.

Close your eyes, picture discounts you have never seen,
Purge your mind of the other stores you’ve been.
Close your eyes, let your shopping cart fill more,
And shop, as you’ve never shopped before.

IPvFoo (my extension) is still useless on Android.
The call to chrome.permissions.request({origins: [ALL_URLS]}); doesn’t do anything.

I’ll try asking on the new forum.

p1mrx, (edited )

Both images feature a raised right hand with outstretched fingers, curled left hand, open-mouth smile, eyes looking sideways toward an overhead camera, short sleeves, prominent breasts, name tag, and and white hat.

p1mrx,

Self-driving trucks will never be 100% autonomous. They will need a reliable data connection to a control center so humans can figure out how to deal with exceptional situations.

There will probably be occasional stupid traffic jams until the technology is perfected. As long as they avoid murderous rampages, we should be okay.

p1mrx,

(X) Cleanse Control Point

p1mrx,

Somebody should tell them about the toasty glow of atomic energy.

p1mrx,

They’re saying $2.99 because it sounds better than $36/year.

p1mrx,

It makes perfect sense that Taiwan should formally renounce any claim to the rest of China.

What would Taiwan gain by doing this? It’s not obvious to me whether declaring independence would make the PRC-invasion scenario more or less likely.

p1mrx,

The battery can deliver a stable voltage output of 1.25 V and a capacity of 110 mAh/g

110 mAh/g * 1.25 V * 1000 g/kg = 137 Wh/kg.

Lithium ion is around 250 Wh/kg, so this battery is around twice as heavy.

p1mrx,

What else is there to eat in the ocean, that isn’t already being eaten?

I would be more worried about something eating plastic while we’re still using it.

p1mrx,

USB 2.0 vs. 3.0 data has nothing to do with USB PD charging wattage.

p1mrx,

The first “Google phone” was the HTC Dream (T-Mobile G1) with MiniUSB. Next was the Nexus One with MicroUSB. Everything after used MicroUSB until the Nexus 5X with USB-C.

p1mrx,

Google’s own Nexus devices had mini-USB connectors.

I was addressing this point in particular. There were no “Nexus” devices with MiniUSB, so it was clear quite early that Google considered MicroUSB to “the right port” for Android.

p1mrx,

Which tablet? I checked every device on https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?sQuickSearch=yes&sName=nexus, and none have Mini USB. There were two Nexus 7 tablets with Micro USB.

Zelensky dismisses compromise with Putin, pointing to Prigozhin’s death (www.cnn.com)

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has said the death of Yevgeny Prigozhin – the Russian mercenary leader whose plane crashed weeks after he led a mutiny against Moscow’s military leadership – shows what happens when people make deals with Russian leader Vladimir Putin....

p1mrx,

Wait till you hear about the origins of Volkswagen.

p1mrx,

That’s 4200 TWh/year, or 480 GW.

Though that ignores the power consumption that isn’t electrical yet, like transportation and heating.

p1mrx,

Currently that backup/storage is mostly fossil fuels, so building nuclear would displace fossil fuels. As long as nuclear remains expensive, we will only build it because not emitting CO2 is socially valuable.

Nuclear would have to get a lot cheaper to eat wind/solar’s lunch. Maybe that could happen someday, but it’s not worth worrying about now.

p1mrx,

Update: IPvFoo is now working on Firefox Nightly 120 for Android.
