Viewing profile — CorpusCalcium

Well then use Chrome, where you don't have to suffer the pea under your mattress that is typing about:profiles once in a while.

Wow, is it really that difficult to click "launch profile in a new browser"? I mean I know we're all becoming spoiled brats over time, but to consider a click or two "unusable" is …

>Mozilla refuses. about:profiles

Why can't the community do this for themselves, without having to make Mozilla do everything?

Nobody is "prohibited" from doing so. You want a Firefox that lets you do whatever you want, you can easily use an unbranded or pre-release build, or even roll your own or use some…

Those modems should no longer be being used, period. If someone cannot afford a replacement and has an incompetent ISP incapable of providing them with a subsidized replacement, th…

Assuming that device is actually worth accessing, then you could still keep and use an old version of a browser for that purpose. Newer browser versions should be pushing the web f…

Again, I have to wonder what divisions in Apple you're talking about. The folks I know working on WebKit practically have zero decision making power. It's all about saving face and…

Not in any of the areas I'm familiar with. For instance they can't even fix long-standing standards-compliance bugs or other interop issues in Blink or YouTube or Google Search... …

Not really, Firefox and Chrome supported the picture element well before Safari did. It was part of the nascent HTML5 standard. I believe what WebKit introduced was the analogous C…

It would essentially have to, in order to support WebP as the web uses it.

No, he wasn't. He wasn't accepted as CEO by enough employees, but he could have stepped down and retained another position in the company, like CTO. Even he recognizes that Mozilla…

>legitimizing DRM like they have By this logic they had already long legitimized it through their grudging support for Flash. But don't let that stop you from trying to act like it…

It strikes me as intriguing that people think there was ever a "severe backlash" over Pocket, let alone that it was what would have caused Mozilla to buy Pocket. Why would they not…

Feel free, but I don't see why you would draw the conclusion that your money is not needed from what I said (even if Firefox has enough revenue to work with for now, your donations…

>Disclaimer: I donate to Firefox. No, you really don't. You donate to the Mozilla Foundation, who are the non-profit parent company who do these kinds of things, not build Firefox.…

Sadly, in general this is a case of "we made a Chrome-specific site/app years ago because it was the easiest thing to do, and despite other browsers and some of our employees worki…

Not quite, but new and unproven features are supposed to be hidden behind a runtime flag to prevent a hot mess like what was caused with CSS/JS vendor prefixes. The Blink team are …

Very few people can devote the significant time necessary to make free professional-grade stuff just for the sake of a wider audience. And unless you're an artist who does that you…

I honestly don't remember the actual message from Mozilla varying much over the past two years when it comes to Vimperator-needed APIs. But then I don't remember anyone doing much …

Isn't that what this bug is mostly about? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1215061

It's also fair to say that some people subconsciously go well out of their way to treat every vague similarity as part of some broader conspiratorial case that Firefox is trying to…

Sure, but that's the JS version. wasm is meant to produce smaller, less resource-intensive versions (and there is a wasm version of sqlite I believe [1]). I'd much rather see CDN a…

What practical benefit would that really have over just using your choice of SQL engine with wasm, though?
