Stunning.

Hope the mystery signed brick will go in along with your own plaque to future humans.

Am tired, but bit confused at sequence of events.

Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering specific extensions, whereupon Mozilla removed for Russian users the banned extensions?

Or…

Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering some undefined type of extension, whereupon Mozilla removed for Russian users any which seemed to fall under the ban under an abundance of caution until they could assess each & reinstate those which did not fit the ban?

Or, more worryingly, but maybe implied by the supposed temporary intent of the ban…

Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering specific extensions, whereupon Mozilla temporarily removed for Russian users the extensions in order to give Russia the ability to track or otherwise meddle with Russian users of those extensions… or to enable Russia to interfere with the extensions’ code for their own ends?

I feel I can make a reasonable guess, but there’s a fairly big safety issue here depending on what happened.

Anyone dissenting within an authoritarian regime knows to exercise extreme caution, but always good to put out reminders to have multiple layers of protection, so if one fails you are still ok.

Beautiful.

Some archaeologist is going to find this one day. Be fun to include a plaque with a message for them (and for anyone who uses it after you).

Having intermittent difficulties loading various things from different phone browsers for the past hour. More so on Firefox.

Have yet to try desktop browsers.

Made the silly mistake of trying to disabuse myself of the fantasy of rewilding a bit of land with some interlaced permaculture, as am barely functional & very clueless, but wanted to avoid group projects as very introverted & would want to camp overnight at times then perhaps graduate to an extra-basic one-person cob structure.

Found something ideal-seeming isn’t nearly as costly as I’d imagined, so the fantasies I’d been trying to shed have gone… stratospheric.

Don’t really know anyone, so can’t even get together a group to buy it as a trust, but may give a collective I’m aware of a head’s up as they’re likely to know of other collectives who have yet to find suitable land.

They’re our structural engineer now, Dave.

Try an image search for “beam connectors” and you should get an idea of the types of things that are available, but a trip to your local builders’ merchant & a chat with the people there may be more fruitful.

To attach wood to an I-beam, you could drill holes in the flanges of the beam, then use bolts. There are also fittings that you can slide posts & beams into, with various ways of securing them to the material they hold. If you’re not using T-shaped fittings, you could bolt fittings together.

Assumed OP meant this type of thing, but yours seems more likely as it would be cheaper to buy & to install.

That one’s good enough to suggest to them!

Can see why they’d maybe be wary of getting into appraising open source projects if taking payments, but maybe something they could collaborate on with EFF & others. Maybe also that “alternative to” project, which doesn’t currently focus on open source stuff but naturally covers quite a lot of it.

Maybe just so new users realise they’re a thing.

Firefox out of the box isn’t very attractive, so mixing in themes by default maybe helps retain new people without driving us lot away.

We will arse them on the beaches?

Often don’t need corn starch, but depends on makeup of the paper & what you want for the end use, leave to dry. Can add glues for other effects.

Tear up pieces, soak in water, squeeze out excess water, shape as needed. Adjust size of torn pieces for different structural effects, from slurry you can pipe for definition & brittle strength or compression through to large overlaid sheets for sheering strength & flexibility)

They hear someone recommend it, maybe on foot of a conversation about privacy concerns, and give it a try.

Doesn’t mean they’ve got to grips with it, but if they haven’t uninstalled it, they probably retain the intent to try.

Oh you want this stuff by a brand called Hagesan Blue, sometimes listed as “HG”. It’ll be obvious which of their products to get though if I recall a few are suitablr.

Ryman’s used to sell it.

The green one looks quite like Lucilia sericata, which is a blowfly but they do eat pollen.

Bitwarden is on FF, as are various video downloaders. Guessing from the title, equivalents of Singlepage. No idea what Forest or the others do, but a search by functionality may turf something up.

Aye, but OP wants extensions which are on Chrome but which are not on Firefox.

Depends on your aptitude & what you want the extensions to do (some being much more complex than others), but most people can learn the skills needed.

You’ll only know if you try, but even if you can’t manage to write exactly what you want, you’ll learn a lot on the way.

There are great resources out there, and forums where you can seek help from more experienced people.

There’s also Orion browser, which isn’t FOSS, but which takes both Firefox & Chromium extensions.

Look, these fuckers are incredibly dangerous, impede anything good, inflict great harm & as the foot soldiers of terrible ideologies could end us all. Defending ourselves & everything good against them is paramount, and protecting those who are more vulnerable even more so.

But, for so long as they remain alive, terrible people retain the potential to change into ok people. Sure, statistically the chances are low, but that tells us nothing about any given individual. So whilst their targets have to give them the widest possible berth for their own safety, and could not be criticised for declining to help a Trumper (or others in the same vein), when they are being dealt with they should still be dealt with humanely and fairly. If we’re face to face, with no support, all bets are off, but once their behaviours are contained they should be treated as one would treat any incredibly damaged creature - with caution, yes, but never cruelty.

Otherwise we become transformed by hate of their hatreds & attacks into something a bit less like ourselves, and a lot more like them.

As for their offspring, leave them out of it. Saw your point about merely trying to get the Trumpers to pay heed, but it already seems many have a very strange sense of “care” for their children, whereas others are so delusional they believe the libs & left are already intent on harming their kids. Plus the statement is ideal for them to use terrify their children about the perils of non-Trumpers.

I don’t mean to seem like I’m having a go at you. Your rage & disgust are valid.
