Another reason to turn off "allow webpages to choose their own fonts" in your browser. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI. |

I think the only use case for "allow webpages to choose their own fonts" is google docs. Did I mention yet? Firefox 59 removed (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1263313) the ability to search for extensions. Now the addon manager's "Get Add-ons" tab has no search bar... and the installed "Extensions" tab only allows searching for new extensions...

In this edition of "OH NO MOZILLA YOU DIDN'T~~!": - Recent editions of Firefox come with a screenshot tool that unlike your trusty Print Screen key, can actually take full page screenshots without requiring to splice up partial shots on Paint (or your favorite equivalent). You can optionally upload the screenshot to Mozilla servers and share it with your friends or whatever. Except for the "optionally" bit: when you hit "Save" after taking the screenshot, it will NOT be saved to a .png file to your HDD as you would expect. No way Jose, that's not how things are done in the post-PC age! Firefox will first upload the screenshot to Mozilla (without your explicit consent!), THEN it will download it back to your PC. You can't make this shit up: Mozilla is uploading your screenshots (maybe with personal/confidential information) to their mothership without even bothering to tell you! All while wasting precious bandwidth for a operation that should be done locally without the intervention of any computer network! Apparently the UXtards call this a "dark pattern" (once again, a stupid term that means everything but that for the rest of the world - a proper term would be "SHIT IMPLEMENTATION"), and after "months of complaints", Mozilla is finally backing down and removing this undesired behavior. - New for Firefox Sixty-Nine: they're now disabling Flash by default. IMO this should have done at least 5 years ago, complete with "UNINSTALL THIS DANGEROUS PIECE OF SHIT NOW!!!" fullscreen warnings. Seriously, we're in 2019, Adobe is EOLing Flash next year, and ever since Hollywood won the browser wars and forced everybody and his dog to implement their DRM poison so you can watch whatever superhero CGI shitfest they pretend to pass nowadays as "entertainment" on your media-consumption devices, there has been no real need for Flash (or browser plugins in general). Please, people, LET FLASH DIE. Its era is long gone, HTML5 is here and while it's a trainwreck, at least you only need ONE set of security vulnerabilities to deal with, not TWO, plus your web browser has been able to render cat videos just fine without the need for extra software since at least half a decade now. If you need to preserve your precious Newgrounds .SWFs, Adobe still offers a browser-agnostic product for rendering them from the comfort and safety of a virtual machine, for free - it's called a standalone projector. And if mistakes were made and you ended with an appliance that can only be maintained through the use of a Flash-enabled webpage, it's time to take your shotgun and go take action!

Posted by tomman You'll likely find they're dropping support for the function because Windows 10 v1809 supports the same Screenshot functionality (but without the Cloud shit), press Print Screen on the keyboard and drag/resize a box around whatever you want to screenshot and click the on-screen confirm button (Enter also works for confirmation). iirc you may need to enable the following setting if you upgraded from an older version of the O/S: PC Settings > Ease of Access > Keyboard > Print Screen Shortcut.

Hold up, Nick. How is dragging a cropping rectangle around the current screen the same as taking a shot of an entire document and only the document, including the parts not on screen? That's kinda what "full page" means, no? |

We know what tomman meant by full page. Firefox has a hidden "developer console" command to take a full page screenshot, too. |

Well if you read the website it sounds like Firefox will upload the image and then you have to manually download the image somehow as a separate step. AMD Ryzen 3700X | MSI Gamer Geforce 1070Ti 8GB | 16GB 3600MHz DDR4 RAM | ASUS Crosshair VIII Hero (WiFi) Motherboard | Windows 10 x64 |

Posted by tomman Actually, it *is* optional, The button with a down arrow (just like the Downloads button on the toolbar) will save the image directly to your downloads folder, with no extra network traffic. The button with an up arrow pointing to a cloud will upload the image to the Internet. The problem is, the button with an up arrow pointing to a cloud is highlighted, and labelled "Save", so it's really easy to click it if you're not thinking too hard. It's kind of a cool feature to have, since if you take a screenshot you *probably* want to show it to somebody else, and it's a lot easier to paste a URL into an email or chat than pretty much anything else. On the other hand, making that function the default and calling it "save" does feel deceptive. Selling out user's privacy in the name of short-term convenience is more Chrome's style. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI. |

FWIW, Chrome does have a "screenshot whole page" function in its Developer Tools as well. |

Posted by Nicholas Steel Because they all started hiding the version numbers and forcing autoupdates. It is just Firefox and Chrome now. Version numbers are a secret because you should only be running the most recent version. The old one kills babies, so they had to change the UI to make the infanticide option harder to enable. --- In UTF-16, where available. --- |

Dammit, Firefox 65 made the Default theme similar to the Light Theme -_-" also if you used userChrome.css to move the Tab Bar below the other toolbars you'll need to update it with the relevant CSS snippet found on this website: https://www.userchrome.org/what-is-userchrome-css.html Does anyone here know the CSS for replicating this Firefox 64 Default Theme look? https://imgur.com/8W4ogh9 Currently both Default and Light themes in Firefox 65 make it impossible to tell at a glance which Tab is currently being viewed (inactive tabs aren't dimmed enough), and I hate the entire UI being a glob of the same colour.
