It's not a Firefox Message? I use Fedora as my OS.
Good thought; I had the same one. But it isn't... I checked for that.
No, I haven't done that yet. I know FF wasn't officially supported before but I thought MS supports it now?
Help with plugins
I have to use Microsoft Teams for work. I use the web version with firefox. The audio portion works just fine and the video portion works too. But the screen-share function does not work. I can't see anyone else's screen when they share it.
Firefox always has a notice when I start up MS Teams (attached the image to this post). But when I click on the "Learn More" button, the bar just disappears without taking me anywhere new. So I'm unable to learn more. Does anyone know what plugin I need or where to download it? I've done a couple of searches and haven't come up with anything helpful so I'm hoping someone can help me solve this problem.
Why would a seed be connected to me if I am also just seeding (not downloading or leeching)?
How do you define better quality results?
That's interesting. What IP address is netflix hardcoding?
No, you can block ads with a pihole. This is because Roku hard codes its dns server as 8.8.8.8. Pihole doesn’t handle IP addresses, only DNS.
I finally figured out how to virtualize my OPNsense firewall. Suck it, Roku.
Blocked that hard-coded google dns garbage.
Ahhhhh. Thank you for the clarification! Done :)
I can't find that one anywhere either. Thanks for the idea though.
I also have a server for Linux ISOs. You can never have too many ISOs.
lmao
I’m gonna test this out for a couple of weeks. Thanks for letting me know about it!
What chromium based browser do you recommend and why?
I use Firefox as my daily driver but sometimes sites just work better on a chromium based browser. I had been using Brave but it seems like they keep adding on more bloat (crypto, VPN, AI) and I'm over it.
What chromium based browser would you recommend and why?
I’m using the stable version of Brave. Not nightly or Beta.
No, I am on the stable version of Brave.
What is this Brave domain
I turned off telemetry and "privacy preserving analytics" but saw the URL below in my DNS logs. Does anybody know what it is? I found this repo but don't know what it means.
star-randsrv.bsg.brave.com
If you use uBO on medium mode, you don't see any notifications, consent banners or pop-ups.
Mullvad. The just had a security audit and came out 💯.
Don’t know if they’re free but Mullvad VPN is great. Proton VPN is also good.
No stupid questions edition: Pokemon Go
My kid discovered pokemon go and loves it. I'm excited because he's getting outside and walking around, getting some exercise and not just playing video games in his room all day.
I was thrilled when he asked me to download it so we could be friends. I've downloaded it but was wondering if there was a version (or a similar app) that is more privacy respecting?
Can I use my current intel-based SSD on a new AMD machine?
I am currently running Fedora 38 on an old Intel Mac Mini. It's time to upgrade to a new computer. I'd like to keep the hard drive (SSD) and just put it into the new machine. To do this, would I have to stick with intel for my new machine or would it also be possible to put the SSD into an AMD machine and have everything work properly?

How often do you use arkenfox-cleanup.js?
It's the scratchpad script where you copy/paste into the about:config
console. I just did it for the new v.115 release. I've done it previously but I don't have any set schedule. I guess 1x every six months (2x/year) seems sufficient but I wanted to see what others do.
