I usually exit my browser whenever I'm (a) not with anything important open, and (b) away from the computer. If I walk away from the computer but need it to remain open (for a download, for example), I lock the screen.
Windows: I want to use the sound card!
Mac: No, *I* want the sound card!
Windows: The sound card is mine!
Mac: No, it's MINE!
Windows: MINE!
Mac: MINE! You can't have it!
User: Why aren't I getting any sound from this stupid machine?
Without proper version numbers, which this FF would be 4.4, how does one tell what a beta is anymore? The purpose of beta software is to test out the software so as to find faults. If you don't fix said faults and instead release another "major" version, which in turn becomes its own beta, at what point can I trust that the software is no longer beta (in practice, not theory)?
Mozilla, trying to catch up with Chrome in version numbers is like trying to compete with an amplifier that goes up to 11 when your own amplifier only goes up to 4, even when the power output on both amplifiers is the same.
There's a reason why good-quality backpacks have a strap that wraps around the waist - the pelvis is capable of comfortably supporting a large amount of weight, and that is why the weight of backpacks is best supported there. Medieval armour supports it all over the body, causing body-wide muscle fatigue.
From the article:
"We were interested to find out why that was - and one of the main reasons is that if you wear a suit of armour, a lot of the weight is carried on the legs - about 7-8kg of it."
I see this every single time I walk into a bookstore. They have multiple bookshelves for contemporary fiction; multiple bookshelves for romantic fiction. But when it comes to science fiction? One bookshelf - and most of the contents is fantasy, not science fiction.
One bookshelf for sci-fi/fantasy in an entire bookstore? What a joke.
What does it matter what method is used for structural support - screws or glue? As long as the glued components can be removed for servicing without causing cosmetic or functional damage, then why not? And as for using a heat gun, that makes sense (again, as long as no cosmetic damage is made in the process) considering you can't use tabs or screwdrivers on glue very easily.
My concern would be the usage of this glue in devices that may be used by people living in high-temperature environments. I live in Australia, and normally temperatures can get quite high here in summer. Now, the operating specifications have a maximum operating temperature, but the equipment can be protected by keeping it off in the hot time of the day when outside, but that won't protect the glue from losing structural support.
When DST is active, they "gain" an extra hour of sunlight in the evening. An hour that is likely used in household stuff as people come home from work (read: lights are probably on, anyway).
Why can't we just have it at 1/2 hour and leave it at that?

This is one reason why I have my browser clear all cookies upon exiting.
If they'd concentrated more on this than pointless Mozilla version # "upgrades", then we'd be in Lightning Calendar v2.0 already.

... will it work outside the United States?
"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Where "fool me" = "get me to trust you when you don't take security seriously".

You just need to invent and FTL drive, then travel to a point just in front of that data beam and retrieve your data.
Brilliant!
