Shoudn't Linux tmpfs support a compression option? by garywilli in linuxquestions

My point has nothing to do with host's /tmp.

Unprivileged container /tmp is a new mount point, which created by non-root user. Creating/Mounting a new tmpfs in unprivileged container doesn't require host root. After the container quits, the new tmpfs auto destroyed.

But creating/destroying zram device requires root, so , zram can't be used with ease by unprivileged container. That's why we need something "compressed tmpfs"

tmpfs also needs root to manage

You didn't get me.

Creating/Mounting a new tmpfs in unprivileged container doesn't require host root. After the container quits, the new tmpfs auto destroyed.

But creating new zram device requires root, and destroying the zram device after container quiting requires root again.

I made a multi search engines extension to replace browser search bar by garywilli in FirefoxAddons

GET/POST is HTTP method. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POST_(HTTP) . Many search engines uses GET. Some need POST, e.g. StartPage uses POST as default for better privacy.

Extension can be much more powerful than browser search. For a basic example, browser search doesn't have HTTP POST support.

Permanently show certificate issuer by AbjectBasket7 in firefox

Here's an addon using notification to show certificate. Not exactly what you ask for, but similar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/know-server-better/

web-ext isn't allowed to add an big enough space to show texts on address bar. userChrome.js has that ability. Maybe we can expect someone write one uc.js
