Re your (partial email & apology) sent to me by mistake:

"Greetings, It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. You know what else was humbling? Sending out an email by mistake, full of out-of-context Sagan quotes being used as placeholder text (thank you, Sagan Ipsum)."

So I looked for the humor in it, but then remembered that since you "partner" with the cursed WEF, it's more likely an expression of a severe mental illness that characterizes all who "partner" with them, & thus only deranged types might find funny.

I've been using X-notifier for a long time. It's toolbar button context menu shows you all your available individual email accounts for access.

In the past, in the case of Gmail, it would take you directly to whichever account selected, but now, regardless of the account you opt for, it takes you to you "default/main" account, and you must the go to the Google accounts menu to chose another account.

Is this a Google idiosyncrasy, or is there another Gmail manager that can do do what I'm looking for?

Feature request: clear indication of local results in "Firefox Suggest"

I appreciate the effort and work that has gone into Firefox Suggest, but I find that it obscures and hides the real source of the found URLs. I have no way to know if it's from my browser history or bookmarks or from, potentially, external sources.

The possibility that "Firefox Suggest" results might be from external sources (depending on what you have configured) makes it (to me) like an opaque black box in everyday use. And even if the source isn't external, the fact that there even exists a doubt is itself a problem.

So a constructive idea: it would be very comforting if at least local results would be clearly indicated in the results in the address bar. And preferably also a distinction of "history" and "bookmarks".

Thanks for considering it! :)

You can see the context menu in the photo, I would want to hide the pin tabs button so I could stop clicking it on accident. Pinned aren't a feature I use nor find useful anyway.

Ever since Firefox update 105.0.3, I have been unable to log into my HBOMAX account. I can get it to work fine in edge, but in Firefox I can click on my account, for who is using, but once I click on myself it will not let me into look at HBOMax video offerings. Any help would be great.

Thanks, [email removed from public]

Entering onedrive , I can see all folders, except recycle bin.

Entering recycle bin, I get error 103.

Doing same steps to enter onedrive thru Edge, I get no error.

There must be an incompatibility of onedrive thru firefox.

I also cleaned registry with CCleaner, without any success.

Please inform me of how to proceed.

Hello, I am using Firefox (105.0.3) on a Macbook Pro Mac OS 12.6 as a default browser. Every time I click on a link two firefox windows always open up. I can't find anywhere why that issue keeps popping up because I've used firefox nightly and haven't had that issue at all. Any help would be appreciated!

WebGL2.0 doesn't allow flipping frame with blitFramebuffer()

Hi. So in desktop OpenGL it is totally valid to write the following in order to flip the frame vertically into dst buffer:

 glBlitFramebuffer(0, h, w, 0, 0, 0, w, h, GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, GL_NEAREST));

In WebGL if I do this:

gl.blitFramebuffer(0, h,w,0 , 0, 0, w, h, gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, gl.NEAREST);

I am getting WebGL warning: blitFramebuffer: If the source is multisampled, then the source and dest regions must match exactly.

Similar error is reported in Chrome.

When I am looking into the related C++ code I can see this:

        if (dstX0 != srcX0 ||
           dstX1 != srcX1 ||
           dstY0 != srcY0 ||
           dstY1 != srcY1)
       {
           webgl->ErrorInvalidOperation("%s: If the source is multisampled, then the"
                                        " source and dest regions must match exactly.",
                                        funcName);
           return;
       }

I am not sure why this restriction has been imposed. GLES2/3 support this kind of dimensions setup with no errors. Can someone explain the reason behind this? And if it is a bug/missed functionality, where should it be reported?
