oh no, firefox now requires pulseaudio to play audio.
and I have USE=”-pulsaudio” always. well, I have actually MINUS=”-pulsaudio -systemd …”, and then I have USE="$MINUS $GENERAL $CODECS…”.
sigh. time to quit firefox? i was saying that chromium is a very attractive girl but i would not leave my lovely firefox. may be seamonkey would be my default choice now. i am really confused. #firefox #seamonkey #pulseaudio #gentoo

I am used to go to Aragats or Sevan to watch, or even catch on camera a falling star during the nights when Earth meets Perseids. However it’s not necessary to wait for perseids or leonids: when you are tired from work, you still may try to catch a star with your camera phone. For instance an animated star when bookmarking a page. I’ve got it at the first try. (: Can you?

it turned out, firefox detects jumping alerts and suggests to disable them.

competition is good. we can see it even by considering free projects: how firefox improved because of chrome/chomium and how gcc improved because of llvm.
btw, did you know about -fsanitze flag which first appeared in llvm and now in gcc? very useful!

recent Firefox versions take CPU power just for having some pages opened, (and I use NoScript to block most of the scripts) while recent Chromium versions keep CPU usage close to zero on the same pages.
Firefox JS interpreter, according to my tests made with this tool went again behind the Chromium.

does greasemonkey’s “Quote post” work for you in firefox 31? It seems it’s not working here after ff upgrade.

As you can see, for recent browser versions, Safari 6 has the highest error rate in our service at .12%, which is less than half of IE 6’s .31% error rate. Chrome 27 and Firefox 22 have virtually nonexistent error rates, with IE and Opera falling in the middle.

I always use “bindist” USE flag in my #Gentoo installations. That’s why my #chromium was not able to play #h264 videos - this codec is used by #vimeo. H264 support also have been removed from #chrome and #mozilla #firefox won’t support it, as it is non-free. Also, binary builds of chromium in #Debion cannot be done with #h264 support because then those #binaries won’t be redistributable. And it seems the only way to watch #vimeo in #browser is to build non-redistributable #chromium yourself. Of course, Gentoo simplifies this task enormously. Also, this is yet another example of how #open-source differs from #free-software, obviously. I forgot to mention that #flash is not an option for me.
