I recently updated my browser, and I've noticed that while listening to music on YouTube, for some reason, the volume slider within the player also controls the stream volume within KDE Plasma's volume mixer, making for a much more frustrating experience. Now the volume resets to what was set on YOUTUBE rather than sticking to what was set in the VOLUME MIXER every time a new video plays or any time the page refreshes. This means that the volume gets reset every. single. time. The issue with this is not only that YouTube's volume slider isn't as accurate as KDE Plasma's, but also that a media player in a browser shouldn't be controlling its own system volume within the mixer because it causes issues and frustrations like these.

How do I separate player and stream volume?

Here's my inxi so you can see what I'm using/what I'm on: ```text System:

A while back I noticed that my google calendar no longer sends reminders to my gmail (or rather, I suspect, gmail does not receive them). Yesterday I missed an important meeting because of this, so I want to get to the bottom of it. I verified that the reminders are properly set in my calendar, so I have to assume that they are going out. The pop-up windows do pop, so I assume that it is not on the calendar side. I also noted that calendar.google.com and gmail.google.com have the proper permissions to send pop-ups and notifications to gmail, which indicates to me that this end of the equation is working. (Don't know how to isolate the error further, though.) It seems that the Firefox settings need to be changed somehow. Any ideas?

Thank you!

I upgraded Firefox using Ubuntu's apt update, apt dist-upgrade. The upgrade process said my version is 134.0.1 but when I look on the Help button is says my version is 125.0.2. How do I upgrade to 134.0.1?

My firefox automatically updated on January 14th. Since the update, it opens with the tool bar above/off the screen, the left side off the screen, and it doesn't allow me to scroll. If I go the the firefox icon at the bottom of the screen and click close window, I can sometimes get it to re-open normally and then leave it open for the balance of the day. I am running windows 11. My wife and I are have the same issue right after the update. Is there a fix on the way or a setting I can change to fix this.

Not as important but I want to get away from all things google. Right now my firefox is tied to a gmail account. To be void of google, do I need to completely take firefox off my computer and re-install with a new email account or can I transfer the account to a new email?

Appreciate your time Thanks so much for your help.

Your Computer Clock is Wrong

Your computer thinks it is Jan 8, 2025, which prevents Firefox from connecting securely. To visit r8---sn-1vob-aixe.googlevideo.com, update your computer clock in your system settings to the current date, time, and time zone, and then refresh r8---sn-1vob-aixe.googlevideo.com.

I can't access my Google account. Because when I try to Kohinoor to it,it asks me for two-step verification. This is my old Google account, now I don't have that old mobile or phone number so I Can't access it.please help me recover my Google account. This is my old Google account that I want to restore. I hope you will help me recover my GMail account as soon as possible. GMail account -mnee006@gmail.com Thank you

It's not that they are not in my Firefox downloads manager, which I expected. It's that I confirmed before closing my private browsing window that they were in my Downloads folder on my C drive, and when I went back after closing the private browsing window they were gone. Under "recent files" in my file browser it showed a couple of the most recent downloads and when I tried to click to open them it said they had been moved or deleted. Entering the first couple words of the file titles in the search bar in my file browser yields absolutely nothing.

This was over 30 files or so. It will be really irritating to try to find and download all of them again. Does anyone know of any way for me to get them back???

Namate from India,

I would like to donate all of my Data since 2005 I opened Gmail Account from Launch. I was very first to use Gmail and other services in Google.

So far I have contributed so much in the form of Queries. This AI based coding I am searching from 2008.

There are so much info in my legacy Data requested to get downloaded from today.

I love Mozilla Firefox from Initially and used many times, before that I was the user of Netscape Navigator. And lot more Open Source projects I am aware of and commerical people started taking forks and started selling their products. All well it's their job to Business.

But recent practice of Internet is not fair, tracking you without taking consent, and tracking what you see, what you watch, what you search more and much.

But some enterprises don't adhere to policy of States like in India. People are very new to Internet and there is a saying here "Data is Gold" by Richest person in India.

People are designing Apps and websites without taking proper Audit

I have blowed whistle against LinkedIn and sent mail to CEO Ryan Ros.

In India majority of people don't understand English and Technical English is very Far.

Results India is the hottest Market for all to Steal Knowledge, Data & Money.

What I want to string e-governance here and working on some of the projects.

But Google is fair and passed All Audits by Govt of India and Now Google Login Is inbuilt.

Let's open the Internet together by establish fair practice. Very few people on Earth 🌎 do work for Real Not for Profit.

I can do advocacy of Mozilla Foundation and Train people in State Govt to design more fool proof and Apps and Web.

But alone it's not possible. I am not getting right people here, sometimes I get very frustrated.

I love EFF and keep involving with them.

Rest looking for your Support.

I can also rasie a lots of Funds by launching a campaign from Good Corporates and other Philanthropists In India.

I am attaching my LinkedIn Profile Screenshot.

Looking forward to your suggestions.

Sincerely Vishal Seth
