Bombs vs bombs with rainbow flags.

Law enforcement officials told NBC News they found the words “deny,” “defend” and “depose,” written on the shell casings found at the shooting scene. Those words seem to echo the title of a 2010 book, “Delay Deny Defend,” whose subtitle is, “Why insurance companies don’t pay claims and what you can do about it.”

Sounds personal.

And what kind of a pro assassin goes to Starbucks before doing the hit and then rides off into the sunset on an ebike?

He was a terrorist, and he got what he deserved.

Authorities in Marseille have launched an investigation to determine the cause of Vlahovic's death.

They'll get to it just after they figure out who blew up NordStream 2

I'm running the Ubuntu snap version of Firefox and recently I've had a problem where the more files I download the more sluggish downloads become. When I download a file now, even a few KB, Firefox becomes unresponsive for a few seconds, including video in other windows freezing. For longer downloads, Firefox is unresponsive the entire time. During downloads Firefox uses 1 core 100% in htop and about:performance shows "Firefox" using 100%

Clearing all data in settings doesn't help

Clearing the list of downloaded files doesn't help.

Deleting the profile fixes it, but the problem comes back as I download files.

I have a policies.json file that sets some privacy related settings and installs 3 addons ([email protected], [email protected], @testpilot-containers).

I also have a hosts file that blocks all mozilla domains (except addons.mozilla.org)

I have a fast CPU, tons of ram and a nvme drive.

I'm not really sure how to debug this?

I deliberately set keywords.enabled to false so that misspelled urls don't end up at google, but now I just noticed that it's enabled again.

Is this a setting that gets reset over updates?

Can any devs comment?

Okay, Wayland is the future, blah blah.

Would it be possible/make sense to make a Wayland compositor that would emulate a X11 server so a X11 WM could talk to it and be used to manage windows?

I'm just thinking about how we could make sure that the tons of obscure but cool WMs survive the waypocalypse.

I can't seem to access https://www.presstv.ir/ or https://www.rt.com/

Are these banned in the UK?

Is there a list of sites banned in the UK (whether by ofcom or any other agency or company)?

I couldn't find any news stories or discussions about this. How does the UK banning people from being able to access foreign news sites apparently just fly under the radar?

What is the technology used?

Thanks.

Why do people on the internet think you don't have to shave if you have a beard? You're just shaving less area.

There are literally lawn chairs in Hyde Park in London and if you sit in a dude rocks up and informs you that it costs like $2 per half hour to sit in it.

He's outraged that it's public and he has to talk about it.

In his day you could slaughter thousands and there was nobody to record it.

"We believe this ban marks a significant turning point in South Korea's attitude to animal protection," said Lee Sang-kyung, a spokesperson for the local branch of the Humane Society International, an animal rights group. "(This) is testament to the passion and determination of our animal-loving public and politicians who reached a tipping point to consign this outdated industry to our history books."

This doesn't look like it will do anything for "animals" as people will just eat other animal meat. It just appeases western sensibilities about what the world is allowed to eat.

Turn it off, take the battery out, snap it in half, throw it in the bin.
