@regordane @digitalraven With respect, that’s the right idea but not the current advice. Pulse checks can be unreliable. Instead, you should check for breathing. Someone who has fainted will still be breathing and should be put into the recovery / airway protection position. If they are unconscious and not breathing, start CPR and do not stop.

@ryanc Are you able to battery power the AP (and router etc. if separate)? If so, is the problem still there when the house circuit-breaker is off? That test may help you separate between interference, and signal strength or geometry issues.

@firefoxwebdevs The frame of this question is risible.

I am begging you to just make a web browser.

Make it the best browser for the open web. Make it a browser that empowers individuals. Make it a browser that defends users against threats.

Do not make a search engine. Do not make a translation engine. Do not make a webpage summariser. Do not make a front-end for an LLM. Do not make a client-side LLM.

Just. Make. A. Web. Browser.

Please.

@goatsarah "This series could have been a film" is the new "This meeting could have been an email."

Just received a lovely email from my insurer pointing out which bits of my home aren’t covered by my policy, just in case #StormEowyn damages them.

Thanks a bunch for that 🖕🖕🖕

@ryanc @GossiTheDog So much so that I think it’s likely ‘Nakamoto’ is long dead.

@ryanc UA strings are like Game of Thrones lineages:

“Mozilla, fifth of their name, born to MSIE and Windows NT in the 6.2nd year of their reign; of fair complexion and compatible rendering. Parent to two children, their names being Gecko and Webkit. Died in their 24th year of wounds sustained in a corporate merger.”

@goatsarah I hear some people climb a route on each edge on the way past too, if you fancy upping the challenge next year 😜
