Firefox breaks Slack, Zoom, Salesforce, Jira, and several other internal/proprietary platforms I use. Many of our tools are integrated into each other (sometimes on the backend through the API, sometimes on the frontend through an iFrame), and Firefox really doesn't play nicely with these interactions. Either it doesn't like the fact that our apps are accessing multiple sites at a time and throws security errors, or it just doesn't render some parts of the page properly, making them unusable.
For instance, one ticketing tool we use is completely inaccessible in Firefox, because the page breaks after the header and loads the rest into a 10px-wide column that stretches for miles. Works fine in Chrome, Edge, and even Safari somehow.
Some of this could be fixed by using these platforms with their out-of-the-box software which may be more compatible with Firefox, without our modifications. But our mods are there because these integrations drastically improve our workflows, so that's unfortunately not a feasible option for our business.
A lot of this is due to Firefox having stricter standards, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Maybe our developers should make our tools more standard-compliant and that might be better in the long run. But until then, I gotta use what works.
Firefox, unfortunately, has been lagging behind. Safari is close to surpassing Firefox if they haven’t already. Safari really made a big shift for actually implementing web standards around 16.4.
No HDR - relevant for me because I mod PC games for HDR
Dropped PWA on desktop - even Apple went full 180° and embraced it now on Mac OS X. Chrome really gets a good push from this from Microsoft constantly helping push more app manifest stuff since it appears one of their goals is to render more things over Edge PWAs (eg: like the title bar), and resort less to having to use electron.
No masked borders - can’t do custom element borders like corner cutting or perfect squircles. Rounded edges only
Chrome is still the absolute best for accessibility. Neither Firefox nor Safari properly parse the aria labels when it comes to how things are rendered. Chrome will actually render text in accessibility nodes as presented on screen (ie: with spacing). Safari and Firefox only use .textContent which can have words beingmergedwhentheyshouldn’t.
Chrome also has Barcode and NFC scanning built right in. I’ve had to use fake keyboard emulators for iOS. Though, Chrome on Mac OS X also supports it. Safari has native support for Barcode behind a flag, so it’ll likely come in the future. Barcode scanning is still possible with Firefox through direct reading of the camera bitmap, which is slower but still good. There’s no solution for NFC for Safari, but if Chrome ever comes iOS, that would possibly be solved. I believe Face Detection is similar, but I’ve never used it.
Even line-height in CSS3 is draft. Saying no drafts should be implemented is a ridiculous standpoint: a standpoint not even Firefox aligns with:
Standardization requirements for shipping features
What evidence is necessary will vary, but generally this will be:
W3C - the specification is at the Candidate Recommendation maturity level or more advanced; shipping from a Working Draft or a less advanced specification requires evidence of agreement within the working group that shipping is acceptable
The guy has brain worms and rats himself out for dumping bears in parks. I’m not trying to be rude, but do you really think he can read a room? Really?
My Windows computer was infected more than once by virus spreading ads on legitimate websites. The site owners denied any responsibility for the viruses saying it was the fault and responsibility of the ad companies. Never again.
There are a lot of solutions to that problem. Fill out your vote when the other isn’t home, vote in person, leave your spouse, etc. Doesn’t seem like much of a problem to me
But really, I can see an abusive overbearing or just manipulative family member definitely doing this. It may not be statistically significant enough to impact an election, but there is no way to ensure there was no coercion.
Jesus Christ I’m not going down that rabbit hole. I realize the most dangerous thing an abused person can do is try to leave the relationship, but that’s only one of the several options I listed. I genuinely don’t understand why you’re criticizing mail in ballots; my best guess is that you’ve seen enough far right propaganda that you genuinely think giving more people more access to voting is a bad thing.
It’s not an agenda against mail-in ballots, it’s just a minor flaw I noticed with some friends that is relevant to the title, but for some reason I seem to have offended the gods of voting turnout by stating it in a public forum. Seriously, some people perk their ears for the littlest reason.
…But that’s ok…sometimes one can trigger the immune response in a community by saying something that could be misconstrued as contrarian.
Important to note that the same is not true for political donations. Idk what the cutoff is but even relatively small amounts get reported to the FEC and make their way into various searchable public databases. Just something to keep in mind if you’re in a vulnerable situation.
Harris and her advisers have not responded with an offer to meet or shown interest in the proposal, say people familiar with the conversations.
The Kennedy outreach, made through intermediaries, follows a meeting in Milwaukee last month between Kennedy and Republican nominee Donald Trump to discuss a similar policy role and endorsement that resulted in no agreement.
I imagine that Kennedy would like some return on kingmaking.
From polling, it appears that you are correct. Although how committed those voters are remains to be seen. I think I recall Johnson polling at around 6% in 2016 but ended up with a little over 3%.
well he’s going for the uneducated fuckwit vote, so yeah.
wasn’t necessarily true before, mind you. i think a lot of people were going to vote for him just because they didn’t want to choose between the same two dudes again.
also the more he talks the more he’ll drive away any voters lucky enough to have multiple neurons, and maybe steal a couple single neuron voters.
