    I am 40 and a nurse. Would it be more beneficial to get a cyber security degree? Instead of bouncing around the countries as a traveling nurse?

  • guessing you want that codec for a reason

    It is the default most widely used codec for devices and video 4K and higher resolution. It is just what nearly all new / modern cameras come with. You don't really get a choice.

  • True, but the other argument is just try adblock lite, it works fine.. It isn't as powerful but I would rather have a fully functional daily browser than one with lesser video playback and conferencing functions.

  • Ad block lite does a good enough job without me changing to be honest, again the point being is that there are more problems with me using Firefox as a primary browser than ad blocking benefits.

  • I guess, but the comment is a direct assertion against Firefox growing from this change. You sort of prove my point by suggestion another sub variant of the chrome ecosystem.

  • Why would I use multiple browsers if I can achieve nearly everything in one? I would much rather use Edge or Safari for everything than Firefox plus another browser.

  • The lack of HVEC/h.265 support is kind of a deal breaker in firefox (windows nightly builds don't count as done). I need it to view h.265 security cameras and the occasional movie streamed via browser.

    Edit: For those suggesting multiple browsers I could just use Edge if I wanted to.. still better compatibility as it is essentially chromium.

    I have a list of other things that don’t work reliably in Firefox such as various video conferencing tools so no, I am not going to switch to Firefox as my primary browser again anytime soon.

    I was a Firefox user for many years but there are too many daily things I use now that prevent me from using it as a primary browser for work and causal use.

  • When was the last time you changed your Google password?

    Jump

  • It is unique and I have MFA enabled so it hasn’t changed in a very long time. As per current security best practices.

  • Why is UI design backsliding?

    Jump

  • View-> Then the little v arrow in the right. Switch to tabs only, the Ribbon UI will now only appear when you click one of the titles like home or View.

  • What is your favorite web browser? (Windows, MacOS, Linux, etc.)

    Jump

  • Ya basically the one that works on the most sites while also not being a PITA.

    Being older than the internet and having used mosaic, Netscape navigator, IE, Firefox, Chrome, several short lived mobile browsers and tried Opera a few times. Can’t say I have a favourite as any browser I like that becomes popular also tends to become bloated and slow over time.

  • HACS

  • The ones I need, otherwise I always prefer core HA elements if possible.

    With recently UI improvements in HA I have actually removed several HACS

  • It is expected, it is already in the betas but may also require carriers to enable it as some beta testers found it wasn’t available to them initially.

  • With a 5 year support cycle on iOS devices getting OS updates, ALL of the iPhones going back to 2019 (when it was added to android) will likely support RCS

  • To be far, apple has had iMessage since 2011 and no one cared about RCS until it was adopted on Android in 2019.

  • The next version of iOS should add support for RCS which should allow for cross platform larger images as well.
