As you may have guessed, it's Latin.

> doesn't do anything but make your life harder.

No it also encourages the local market and healthy competition. This way in the future we don't fall into the same enshittification trap.

I thought an industry standard was to use proxy files. Open source editor Shotcut use them for example. Create a low resolution + intra-frame only version of the file for very fast scrubbing, make your edits on that, and when done the edit list is applied to the full resolution rushes to produce the output.

This is the worst to me. It happened to me a few times already. Someone says or writes something wrong. You correct them. They get defensive and justify the error by saying it's what the chat bot wrote.

It's very frustrating, they delegate the responsibility of having written wrong information or code away to the bot, as if there was nothing they could do.

Social aspect. There is no need but it's more fun to spend the end of the Universe with other intelligences than each in its own place.

It is counter intuitive but information can still travel between places that are so distant that expansion between them is faster than the speed of light. It's just extremely slow (so I still vote for going to the party at the highest density place).

We do see light from galaxies that are receding away from us faster than c. At first the photons going in our direction are moving away from us but as the universe expands over time at some point they find themselves in a region of space that is no longer receding faster than c, and they start approaching.

Already a big problem in art, people go on witch hunt over what they think are signs of AI use.

It's sad because people that are ok with AI art are still enjoying the human art just the same. Somehow their visceral hate of AI-art managed to ruin human art for themselves as well.

> The bandits who fall in area B1 are those individuals whose actions yield to them profits which are larger than the losses they cause to other people.

Are there real life example of this? Or does anyone that scams people richer than them qualifies maybe?

Hurting the enemy is intentional and thus has an implicit "gain" built into it, even if it's just psychological. The physical losses can be deemed acceptable because of it, if the satisfaction derived from hurting the enemy balances them out. The OP is describing stupidity where the result is a true loss or zero gain, because the intent wasn't to hurt in the first place.

You can change sync settings on a per-profile basis. I have 6 profiles, 4 of which I synchronize between different computers. They use different sync accounts. So for example on my personal profile I sync the passwords but not on the work profile.

For me that's how it works unless I already have a Firefox window opened. If I have multiple windows of different profiles already open (which happens all the time) it may add it to the wrong one, so I sometimes need to drag and drop the tab between the windows.

> I usually start with the default profile, then navigate to "about:profiles" to open all I need.

Just add -p in the shortcut properties to start on the profile manager.

I do it all the time I'm not sure what you are talking about.

I use Tree Style Tabs extension (obviously), so maybe the feature is coming from there?

You can definitely drag and drop a tab from one window to another, target window can be in a different profile.

You can select multiple tabs with SHIFT and then drag and drop them to the other window, no problem.

I don't understand some of these comments. Start firefox, pick profile, opens a window in the selected profile.

The only weirdness is when you have multiple windows of different profiles opened at the same time and you open a link from a different application it may open it in the last used window which may not be the one you wanted. But then you can of course just drag and drop the tab from one window to the other.

The point of profiles is that they are completely isolated from each other, like separate installs, so I don't think starting to share preferences would be great.

I've been using profiles for 15 years and I didn't even know it was in about:config.

Just add -p in your shortcut to start on the profile manager.

Command prompt, terminal? What are you talking about?

You just have to add the -p in the shortcut properties.

> and glad profiles have finally arrived in FF for that reason

Profiles have been there for years, been using them since at least 2010.

Use -p in your shortcut to firefox and it will show the profile manager on launch, from that you can easily create a new profile or open a new window on existing one.

A roadblock to what workflow? I just have -p in my firefox shortcut and it shows the profile manager every time I launch. I have 6 profiles I use regularly.
