This reliably kills Firefox on Linux here. The whole browser. After a few seconds, during which the laptop fans are spinnung up, all tabs go into a "This tab just crashed" state.

I wasn't going to comment because I thought it was only me but yes. I heard the fans and then it crashed.

Thankfully I wasn't doing anything important...

Have the same issue here, with Ryzen 4700U + 16 GB RAM. Are you saying that it is not enough for generic browsing at the end of 2023?

Which OS are you running and which browser? We've optimized for many common browsers/OS combos but have clearly missed yours (nothing to do with your specs).

As a counterpoint, Ryzen 7530U + 16GB here and with Linux+Firefox the page generates a fairly constant 25% CPU load.

So while clearly heavy for what is essentially a few streaming counters, it's not a system killer.

There's a lot of online fraud. We invest a ton in Radar, our payment surfaces, etc., to keep this as invisible as possible to businesses. (We don't always succeed, of course. But, despite the growing sophistication of the fraudsters themselves, we do generally get better every year.)

If you enter the wrong CVC or ZIP and it is declined, does that increment your blocked fraud counter?

That's a good question.

I once had my payment flagged as fraudulent because the card owner was not the same as the shop account owner.

My bank decided it was a good idea to block my card without telling me anything. I realized a couple days after when I couldn't pay my groceries.

Such fees just encourages bad incentives. Such as terrible security because reimbursing people / financing organized crime is cheaper (cheaper for the bank, of course much more expensive for society).

What? Financing organized crime? How does that relate to credit card processing fees?

Sloppy security in favor of reimbursement is financing organized crime.

Though how credit card processing fees relate to sloppy security is mostly a brainfart by me.

No. It used to but they turned it off in Dec 2021; notice in my dashboard says it improved sales revenue by 0.5% but only added fraud risk by 0.0004%

Sorry for the trouble, we've just pushed bfcm.stripe.dev/lofi live. Should run reliably with very little load on any machine.

Have the same issue here, with Ryzen 4700U + 16 GB RAM. Are you saying that it is not enough for generic browsing at the end of 2023?

Runs quite smoothly on my cell phone.
