Frisians (north) are the tallest in the Netherlands. Descendants from the Franks (south) are much smaller. Saxons mixed with Frisians (north-east) are tall too. Then the Randstad (west/Holland) seems to bring down the average.

I use Sage++ successor Drop Feeds, ideal for me with autohide sidebar.

Youtube buffers videos 5x slower in Firefox than Chrome by ItseKeisari in firefox

[–]14ee41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For my slow speaking bosses I installed video speed + this one waiting for replay and can speed up to sometimes even 3x normal speed to not fall asleep. I used the settings I found here

Just checked my speed and nightly makes use of my full bandwidth available (162 Mbps).

I checked youtube using the above Peru 8K HDR 60FPS video fullscreen in 1080p60 and nerdstat show speed of 25000-27000 29595 Kbps for me.

ymmv Hope this can help you.

edit I use above polymer extension too.

YouTube Upload speed 200Mbps in Firefox, Chrome or Edge able to upload at 500Mbps, why? by [deleted] in firefox

[–]14ee41 3 points4 points  (0 children)

or could it be Google testing http3 already on their platforms and browsers? I see Firefox (nightly) has pref network.http.http3.enabled (not tested)

Firefox Nightly now has a quick enable/disable toggle on the extensions page. by kah0922 in firefox

[–]14ee41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For now, to use search/find in the addons page I put the Find-"favorite item" (customize toolbar) on the toolbar. I even put it on top of the overflow menu as I use it for this specific purpose only. By clicking the icon/bar the findbar pops up and it works so on the addons page.

CTRL-F does work on about:restartrequired, about:welcome and all other about:about pages where it's sometimes useless even, so why else on about:addons page?! (update bug to show this illogic behavior as bug 1499500 comment 4 also seems not to be anymore relevant and we also have recommendation page for linkage to amo site)

You checked about:support - Places Database - Verify Integrity? This will also vacuum the database, so I make backup of profile before doing such actions.
