  1. Yeap - I think it needs Android 8/Oreo: when I upgraded my phone (I use lineages.org) from Android 7, it begined to happen

  2. I use mostly, but rarely, Google Chrome on Android to eventual "normal browsing" (I have FF configured to use SOCKS5 proxy, generated by https://play.google.com/store/..., to access remote addresses, or addresses filtered in some places WiFi, and with https://noscript.net/ [to access some paywalled content :P] - Google Chrome is a "dumb user" browser, I think...)

  3. [...] PIP [...] is apparently a FF exclusive feature.

    No: Google Chrome has it "feature" for several weeks now...

  4. auto-playing videos is really annoying (but is not an FF exclusivity...)

  5. And shutting down Firefox takes a good 10 minutes or so - I click the 'X' on the window and I can see the processes slowly shrink and eventually go away.

    Again I call bullshit on this unless you are running a machine with some serious hardware problems. I have never seen any behavior like that on literally hundreds of machines I administer through work running firefox or in my personal use. Firefox does have its flaws but you don't need to make stuff up to point them out.

    I second that

  6. I use it in a daily basis since ~2004 (in several OSes), and it never becomes a real problem...

  7. I never understand-ed this supposed "memory leak" subject: seems that only Firefox suffers of these problems...

  8. He, Bolsonaro, call almost all media, "fake news"... I can see an obvious pattern here...

  9. I wish it was true...

  10. Yeap... If I can, I would move to Uruguay or Canada :/

  11. YouTuber President... on YouTubers Will Enter Politics, And If They Do, They're Probably Going To Win (buzzfeednews.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    Kim Kataguri and MBL are just a small part of the problem, here in Brazil: the likely new president, Jair Bolsonaro, is "an YouTuber": he just spread videos from his social networks, but he already tell everyone that he will not participate on TV debates - more info: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/1...

  12. Re:IT / coders need an UNION! on When Your Day Job Isn't Enough (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    Here on Brazil, there is unions for TI professionals, like http://fenadados.org.br/ and http://sindpd.org.br/

  13. +1 informative

  14. Re: I'm real (more than you FAKENAME) on Most Americans Can't Tell the Difference Between a Social Media Bot and A Human, Study Finds (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    I'm a bot * a bot IS REAL too, insensitive APK followers!

  15. like you said, it's opinion-based: in my undestanding, zero-rating infringes NN

  16. So APK is a bot? Or it's a fake news spreader?

  17. Re:Who's Ethics? on Mozilla Challenges Educators To Integrate Ethics Into STEM (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 1

    Ethics are morals.

    I strongly disagree from this: there's no "who" for ethics...

    The ONLY difference is that when people want to shame or punish your for not sharing their morals, they call them ethics instead.

    You realizes that you are doing exactly this, no?

  18. Re:Who's Ethics? on Mozilla Challenges Educators To Integrate Ethics Into STEM (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 1

    Don't you mean "morals"? "Ethics" is another thing...

  19. if you watch through the end of series four, you'll discover that many of the episodes actually are in an interconnected world

    it's very true (a didn't know the concept)

  20. it's a bunch of films: the characters not surpasses "epiosodes"...
