Vanilla OS is moving to Debian with version 2. I don'tthink they have a KDE version, though.
Firefox now supports a setting (in Preferences → Privacy & Security) to enable Global Privacy Control. With this opt-in feature, Firefox informs the websites that the user doesn’t want their data to be shared or sold.
This sounds like Do Not Track revisited. The only difference that I can find (only skimmed the website) is, that there seems to be some legal support for this in the state of California.
Now you can exercise your legal privacy rights in one step via Global Privacy Control (GPC), required under the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA).
I wonder:
- How does this differ from DNT?
- Does this this have any real chance to take off? From what I've heard, DNT has been rather counterproductive as it can be used to fingerprint users.
A fart is an ephemeral, gaseous configuration of molecules as they pass through a specific orifice in a specific direction. In short, a fart is not the gas itself.
That's not something I thought about. Good thing that you can disable the feature then
How do middle-click-to-paste and middle-click-to-scroll conflict? In Firefox I can click-to-paste if the cursor is over an input field and click-to-scroll anywhere else. Never had any problem with this behavior.
I think with a topic like this, you can't NOT spark a huge discussion. I hope you still got some useful answers out of it :)

Only if thunder is followed by putrid stench :D
Oh, this sounds interesting. I'll have to give this a try.
Official Release Page for those who don't want to read the Phoronix article: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/releases/1.0.0
It's great to see that Pipewire has reached this milestone. Personally I've been using it since 0.3.35 for very basic audio needs and it's been a very smooth transition. After installation I never had to tinker with it anymore. "It just works"^TM^
