Both, it's a sign of trust not an invitation. They trust you with their vulnerable side and you betray that trust by play attacking it.
What follows after is justified.

which also references an effort to use the media to quietly disseminate Google’s point of view about unionized tech workplaces.

Bogas’ order references an effort by Google executives, including corporate counsel Christina Latta, to “find a ‘respected voice to publish an op-ed outlining what a unionized tech workplace would look like,” and urging employees of Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, and Google not to unionize.

in an internal message Google human resources director Kara Silverstein told Latta that she liked the idea, “but that it should be done so that there ‘would be no fingerprints and not Google specific.’”

From the article posted by 100_kg_90_de_belin.

Google seemingly does care about their internal image, so they will only make their actions obvious when they fire you for bogus reasons after wanting to join a union.
Quite nasty in that they give you no hints about how extreme their efforts on this are. They monitor internal employee tools like they are cosplaying the NSA, but you wouldn't know before you are fired out of the blue.

let x be the number of people like this

x = x+1

Am I doing this right?

 

I have been playing around with pwa-like experiences, and as part of that I tested "kiosk mode".

For those who don't know, you can start a "kiosk window" with the command firefox -kiosk --new-window <url>, which will open that url in fullscreen without a titlebar, right click menu, any overlays like the link preview or loading text, ...
I cancelled the fullscreen flag of my window, and had a resizable fully functional website in a frameless window.

Which was great and all, until I realized that in my running profile now every newly opened window is also in kiosk mode, and right click was globally disabled. My running firefox instance has been infected by the kiosk disease.

Anyway, it's not a large issue, I can just restart my infected instance. But I hate restarting my browser, it usually runs for multiple months.

My question is, is it possible to leave kiosk mode without restarting firefox?

 

I updated my firefox from 119.0.1 to 121.0 two days ago, and have noticed a for my usage quite significant change:
When I have a page, say a search engine query or a gallery of links on a page, and I open one then go back, previously I got the cached version. Within reason of the cache size I could go back a few pages even days later and critically see them as they where, just like I would expect for a tab I have open.

I use this behavior to work through essentially todo lists, so now that the lists get reloaded every time I visit them, this combines with server side caching to make the list jump around quite annoyingly.
My expected behavior would be the cached back history being served when available, except when I manually hit F5.

Was this change intentional? Is there any way to get the old behavior back?

Edit:
It seems to be a bug and only happen on some profiles, potentially dependent on some metric related to heavy use, like number of open tabs and windows.
Edit:
It seems to be related to uBlock Origin.
Edit:
It is definitely an issue within ubo, I will add a link to the issue there when I create it.
Edit:
It seems to be caused by the "AdGuard Tracking Protection" filter list within ubo.
Edit: issues:
ubo filters: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues/21841
AdguardFilters: https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardFilters/issues/170172
Edit:
It was fixed a few minutes ago, the changes should percolate through to ubo soon™. Thx Yuki2718.

For those who don't know,
The Multi Key is a key you can set on linux, with which you can type an insane amount of unicode characters. It is commonly bound to scroll lock, I will represent it with ↓ here.

A few examples of shortcuts would be
↓TM → ™
↓|v → ↓ (the character I am using here)
↓+- → ±
↓co → ǒ

Now, most of those work just fine in Firefox, but weirdly there are some that don't. For example ↓PP produces ¶ just fine, but ↓RR doesn't type ℝ. for ↓RR the Multi Key input stops, like it does once no more valid sequences are left that match the current input. ↓CC also doesn't type ℂ, but it doesn't stop but continue on as if there was a different sequence starting with CC. I don't see anything special about the sequences that don't work compared to the majority that do.

After some trial an error, I think what is happening is that firefox does read my .XCompose, but the line include "%L", that is supposed to load the default Compose file located in /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose is ignored. It is not a language configuration error, as include "/usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose" is ignored too. Entering some deliberate modifications or even removing existing sequences from the Compose file doesn't affect Firefox.
I even found some sequence ↓a_ which is supposed to yield ā but firefox has as ª (not to be confused with ᵃ the superscript a) instead.

Searching for the place Firefox' Compose is defined, I grepped for "ª" which is a pretty rare character, and hit libxul.so. I tried a bunch of other characters and found pretty much everything that has a compose sequence is found in that file.

So thus my question would be: Are Firefoxes default compose sequences statically compiled into libxul.so? And if so, why?
