Desktop Firefox is great. Maybe you meant mobile Firefox, which has had terrible unpatched memory leaks in the JavaScript implementation for years and years. I have to kill Firefox several times a day on my phone. On my desktop it typically works fine without runaway memory use until I reboot for some other reason.

Your question is stupid and you should feel stupid. No, NATO supplying weapons to Ukraine is not NATO attacking Russia. Not even a little bit. Anyone is free to play arms dealer. Russia has done a fuck of a lot of it. Do you accuse Russia of invading countries when they supply arms to those countries' enemies? No? So why are you doing it to NATO now? Just got a taste for dictator dick?

Comment Re:Malicious or not, TP-Link devices have issues (Score 1) 79

I am considering Cudy products at the moment. They are well priced and seem like decent hardware. To some extent there isn't that much difference between many of the products now, they are all essentially a couple of reference designs for a handful of chips.

Might try one of their POE access points.

The is the OpenWRT One as well. The form factor is a bit awkward, with the ethernet ports and antenna jacks on the same side, and it could do with a cover for cosmetic reasons, but it has the big advantage of being reference hardware and thus extremely well supported. Maybe I could 3D print a case for it.

This is completely, provably historically false.

So you're going to prove it, right?

Nobody was inhabiting those lands before the Jews first settled there

The Jews came from the Canaanites, and they were not the first people in the Levant either, so you are wrong on top of wrong.

it's flat out factually inaccurate to claim the Palestinians were there first.

Link to where I said that Palestinians were the first people in the Levant, or fuck right off with your collection of straw men.

You want there to be a process for Apple to give your account away to someone else against your wishes?

That's a gross mischaracterization. This is Apple refusing to give control of the accounts of children to the person with parental control of the children. People demanding that this only be done under court order are neglecting to note the fact that there is already a court order giving her parental control, which is in the first paragraph of the summary.

I've been through this. My Apple ID now ends in +A because my ex-fiancé owns the one with my regular address. Because it was easier for me to give it to her and start over. Would I have preferred a way to split the account so she could keep her purchases and I could keep Angry Birds? Yes. But there wasn't one, so I did what I had to.

No, you have not been through this, because that is a wholly different scenario. There are literally zero similarities between this and that because you were using a shared account. That was completely your own fault. In this case, the children have their own accounts, and Apple is refusing to recognize a court order giving care, custody, and control control of those children to a specific parent. Instead they are arguing that their rules are more important than those of the government, and willfully assisting a parent without CCC of the children with abuse of a custody agreement despite being provided evidence of this CCC.

I know blaming people for being weak minded morons makes you feel warm and fuzzy, but the reality is that three quarters of Americans are overweight. It's the normal state, being a healthy weight is the exception.

There's clearly some environmental factor at play here.
