The "AI kill switch" was developed with a lot of internal feedback and based on user complaints.

Does it work for you? If not, let us know.

@anildash Hey, cool post. The link to https://daringfireball.net/2004/03/introducing_markdown has an extra ] still. :)

@delta Surely, I am not the only one blocked on the decision which server to pick for a new account and what kind of trust in metadata goes into the server?

@0xabad1dea daughter is doing bracelets using alphabet beads and I can tell you the distribution is completely arbitrary and doesn't reflect demand. At least for our family and we have nobody called Xerxes.

@bagder Why are you even doing this to yourself? What’s the one single benefit of hackerone for you? :)

@sofia @vel ja klar. Cap. Ziemlich gut. 🫣

@vel Ah. Das erinnert mich total an meine Lieblingskopfbedeckung. Die Berechnete Obergrenze.

Weil meine Kinder heute gefragt haben. Der Bürgermeister von Wesel ist eine Bürgermeister*in* und sie heißt Frau Westkamp.

@rysiek @signalapp excellent analysis. Fully agree that this attack doesn't match the average user's threat model and great suggestion that the probe can be eliminated by disabling read notifications. I would add that this is more of a Cloudflare bug. They should fix this.

Please Boost: To all Hacker Spaces in Berlin. I have a decommissioned server to give away. So far, I have been unable to find a beneficiary.

**Who wants this server?**
HP ProLiant DL360 Gen9 - 2 CPU E5-2697 v3 @ 2.60GHz, 128 GB DDR4, 2x 900GB SAS.

Pick-up in Berlin Kreuzberg.

@sunfish wait, is this essentially "I like doing hard puzzles. Of course I don’t want to make them simple"?!

Last night, about 21 hours ago, Manfred Paul demonstrated a security exploit targeting Firefox 124 at pwn2own.

In response, we have just published Firefox 124.0.1 (and Firefox ESR 115.9.1) containing the security fix.

Please update your foxes! 🦊

Kudos to all the countless people postponing their sleep and working towards resolving this so quickly! Really impressive teamwork again. Also, kudos to Manfred for pwning Firefox again :)

Layoffs suck.
Go hire a Mozillian you managers out there. They are all good people.

TIL the #Firefox translations features isn't only working for web pages. Head to `about:translations` to translate any text from your clipboard.
Just like with web page translations, this is always done locally. None of the text leaves your device. Ever.

Annoyed that a website is doing something custom on right-click?
Did you expect the browser's context menu (Back, Reload, Save Page As, View Source etc.)?

Just hold the ⇧Shift key while clicking and Firefox will show the built-in context menu.

**Last Chance to fix eIDAS: Secret EU law threatens Internet security: **
New legislative articles, introduced in recent closed-door meetings and not yet public, envision that all web browsers distributed in Europe will be required to trust the certificate authorities and cryptographic keys selected by EU governments.

@joeyh are you maybe seeing files after a build-step? Some of our JS lives in another repo.

@joeyh Yeah, I think we don’t maintain the debian/Ubuntu packages ourselves. I usually browse the source at searchfox.org (mozilla-central = Nightly)

@mastohost @ben did you consider offering this as part of your service? There could be separate lists for spam protection and abusive behavior.
