I do not use snaps (I assume you meant snaps vs flatpack). Removing the snap FF and installing the dpkg one is one of the first things I do when setting up a new Ubuntu system.

I'm running what Ubuntu presents as the current version of FF, which is 147.0.4.. HOW is FF going to get to 157 by the end of next month???
BOOBOO... For truth in advertising.. That WAS $2,995 NOT $2,495... My 74 y/o brain hiccups now and then.
I laugh when I see a cheaply made car that costs over $50K, and then I think back on my first new car, a 1975 VW Rabbit. Out the door price? $2,495. Being a lowly E4 in the Army, I financed the car for 36 months, with payments of $124/mo...
My old 2013 Hyundai doesn't have any touchscreens, but the display for the am/fm/xm/aux/usb entertainment screen, nearly fades out to where its hard to see what its displaying during our "blast-furnace" season and the sun beating down on it. It doesn't look like LCD, more like the old liquid crystal that you saw on older watches. I've had the car over 5 years and I've noted that the display is slowly getting invisible..
My current car is a 2013 Hyundai, and after seeing what abortions new cars are, I would NEVER EVER buy one, despite having funds to be able to buy one outright. Not only is the giant touchscreen a problem, new cars are rolling MALWARE.. they hoover up your driving habits, how fast you drive, where you drive, how you brake and send all of this to an insurance exchange where it fucks with your insurance cost.. And on top of this, they're all pieces of shit, grossly overpriced.
I'll keep this 2013 that just turned over to 139K miles as long as I can, and if I can't I'll buy something like a 2010 Honda van with an engine that routinely hits over 300K. Being I'm 76, I think the Hyundai will last just fine..
THIS is the way...
Everybody talks about this being the "Year Of Linux".. For me, 2010 was "The Year of Linux" and still eschewing Windows..
Funny.. I seem to recall a couple of months ago, that several major pc mfgrs (Dell/HP/Lenovo?) had decided to make windows an extra cost option and default to putting Linux on their systems. Perhaps this windows license cost increase is due to this OS switch finally hitting MS's bottom line. We can only HOPE so..

City Council member of a non-listed Twin Cities suburb I know:
FBI is involved. Most water systems use one of two control/alert systems that are old and make them easy targets.
All they did was shut down components of the systems e.g., wells/sewer lift stations. Most cities were able to cycle manually to get back up and running. There was not messages warning or ransom of which I am aware.
They could have done a lot more damage if they wanted to, rather than just shutting things down.
I live in Plymouth; there was no city communications about this nor did I see any issues. So, I assume there were no physical disruptions to service.
From the looks of that trailer, Coyote vs ACME just might be the movie that gets me to bite the bullet, pay the exorbitant price for a ticket to go see it in a theater. The last time I set foot in a movie theater was 2015, for "The Force Awakens".. Since then, if there's a movie that I'd like to see (highly doubtful, with the sewage that Hollyweird usually puts out) I'd wait till it came out on Redbox, then I'd rent it, rip it to my media server and voila.. Can't even do THAT anymore.. Always had a warm place in my heart for Wiley Coyote and the Roadrunner, and of course, Acme..
Umm.. You must be mistaken as I NEVER said I *was* a "at-large SCOTUS" member. What the oath I took requires of me is to fight to keep the government operating Constitutionally. Yes, I know its a lost cause, but I have to keep trying, doing what I can, and watching human garbage like a growing number of members of Congress, who openly claim to be communists.
Sounds like we need to stay more than 100 miles away from any border for our own safety..
