In Firefox, the bookmarks are in a sqlite database that you could probably query with an extension or other tool. https://stackoverflow.com/a/740183

Some of the jamstack frameworks like Gatsby do this. They turn into SPAs after the first page of pre-rendered HTML is served.

Ctrl-z will put Vim to sleep. You can look at the history and then type `fg` to bring the Vim back to the foreground.

There's already a major Rust project named warp with over 6,000 stars on Github: https://github.com/seanmonstar/warp It seems like you're going to confuse people and crush someone's established project w

Another option is Gandi.net, which offers free email with domains.

by a5aAqU 5y ago
It isn't just Google Cloud. I've had absolutely terrible experiences with several Google support departments. It's often impossible or difficult to resolve the problems. A domain isn't the kind of thing that you can quic

Another vote for Gandi. Each domain also comes with 2 email accounts and extra forwarders.

Google's "customer support" is so bad, I think it would be a huge mistake to let them control your domains. Dealing with Google's "support" has been a nightmare over and over on many unrelated issues. They also

Internal search can often be scammy though. If you search Google for products, you'll land on an Amazon page, but if you do your search on Amazon instead, they will sometimes only show you more expensive versions of the general product

I don't think browsers let you share passwords between users or multiple browsers. They probably don't let you store secure notes or add extra data about logins. 1password lets you share passwords with other people, even if they d

That's what the VPN is for. People keep saying that they want to donate money to Mozilla. You can sign up for Firefox Private Network or Mozilla VPN for much better results than DOH, and give them a little money at the same time. http

When DOH was first enabled, it bypassed all the blocked domains my hosts file (Ubuntu). I don't know if it has changed.

by a5aAqU 5y ago
So people should push Mozilla to add an about:config flag to turn it off, if it doesn't already exist. The solution is much simpler than demanding that Mozilla completely stop trying to find a way to reduce dependence on Google.

It literally takes only two clicks to remove Pocket from the toolbar. People need to stop complaining about little things like that.

by a5aAqU 5y ago
They can't do it like that directly, but they have been undercutting Firefox for years. For a long time when you searched Google from Firefox it would tell you to download Chrome.

by a5aAqU 5y ago
Many people wouldn't otherwise sign up for a VPN, and there are a lot of shady VPNs out there. Mozilla can use the feature to help reduce dependence on a company that has been trying to destroy them for years (Google), and help non-tec

by a5aAqU 5y ago
I don't understand the anger about the VPN. I think it's a good idea. Reader mode is useful, especially if you block a lot of CSS and JavaScript by default with uMatrix. I don't know why people use DOH anyway. It bypasses you

I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted. I often don't notice, and I've never heard anyone comment about those things. Most end users don't even know what those platforms are. Some apps look different than others

I rarely notice unless the developer hasn't put any effort into the UI. Most people don't care.

I don't think your comment ventures into the culture wars. It's just about good communication skills.
