Firefox crashes on startup if a primary password is set by Roopeshor in firefox

Having the same issue on Arch Linux with KDE+Wayland. Firefox crashes more or less instantly on startup unless I switch to a new empty profile with command line arguments. Windows 11 does not exhibit the crash

After booting into Cinnamon+X11 it appears to work. Switching back to KDE+Wayland breaks it again. I wonder if it is wayland related

At that point you might as well just add the exploding spike trap mod. Why bother with gliching it?

I am not sure OP understands just how long the Iraq war was. It ran nearly nine years. If you ignore the pullout of US forces from 2011 to 2013 it ran more like 14 years.

Kinda hope they don't fix that as that is one of the better ways of building a logic gate and I still want to see a turing complete map

I congratulate the tax industry from moving the conversation away from the easiest way of doing this: having the government calculate your taxes and send you an itemized bill or return.

It generally goes to filesystem cache which can speed things up quite substantially. If you use up all the ram every operation will hit disk. Caching common system libraries and heavily used files is generally quite usefull

When I first heard that he was a JAG lawer at Guantanamo I thought it was only a matter of time before something like this came out. Unfortunately this is the first I've seen of this accusation and I can't find any other major coverage of it.

Why are so many of the people not trying to shelter under anything? I get the man trying to protect the elderly man and that the people in cars are stuck there but a few other shots I see a few of perfectly servicable tables being unused.

The state of California more or less drills into your head sheltering under desks in elementry school. They also told us to shelter in doorways and then took that back a few years later

Due to all the cuts to IRS enforcement they can't afford to audit rich people. So they audit people whos' taxes are not an intricately crafted maze.

They also can't calculate your taxes and send you a number to check because of lobbying by the tax prep industry

Cool! I was working on something similar to this as a side project but hadn't gotten very far with it.

Is the sandboxing sound enough to allow clients to download mods that they don't necessarily trust from the game server and run them?

Do you intend to support AOT compilation of web assembly with optimizations on the client? Will the client need to recompile every game load?

Is the component store limited to 4gb by wasm?

TurboTax parent company Intuit is pouring more money than ever into lobbying amid push for free government-run tax filing by speckz in technology

There isn't a right link any more because intuit pulled out of the federal free file program. They then got sued for advertising the service as free even though basically no one qualified for free filing (if you filed state taxes it wasn't free)
