Doesn't seem like it should be very hard, the main work is just testing to get rid of false positives and adding in enough cases to cover a wide enough range of situations.

All this time I've been stuck using the 32-bit build because I couldn't live without LastPass and now I find out they have a compliant version on their website  I guess its been stuck in the mozilla review process for over a year (possibly still has bugs).

A week ago I was using 3D Earth view in google maps and for some reason it crashed, Firefox reloaded into 3D mode ok, then crashed again a minute later. When I reloaded google maps now limits me to satellite view, and says that 3D view is unavailable. I haven't been able to figure out how to re-enable 3D earth view. Incognito mode also limits me to satellite view so I don't think its a cookies issue, but a different Firefox profile works, so I assume its some setting that Firefox enabled automatically on my profile to disable a recurrently crashing 3D mode. However I have not been able to figure out how to re-enable it. Any suggestions?

You can try hardware accel and webgl on/off: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration And you can try reinstalling gfx drivers. It's kind of mysterious why Maps 3D fails sometimes, one of the reasons I switched to Firefox was that it hadn't worked in Chrome (!) for a year or so.

Spyde posted:Weird I switched from Chrome a few months ago and can't say I've noticed any difference. Has worked fine for my usage. Yeah, I suppose it's fair to say that, mostly, it does work. But it's so awfully designed and the new UI is terrible and slow, and the online vault is just as bad. It's mainly just incredibly janky rather than outright broken. If we weren't pretty much forced to use the enterprise version for work and there was something better out there with online sync and browse extensions, I'd switch in a heartbeat. But it's the best we've got for the lack of alternatives with the same feature set I think.

I had to reformat last weekend and I'm still working on replicating the years-old rear end-groove that I had worn into whatever old rear end build of firefox that I had been using. Previously I was using a custom, dark themed style sheet for Something Awful that I'm pretty sure was installed via Stylish. It looked a lot like the first option listed here: https://userstyles.org/styles/browse?search_terms=Something%20awful But now all those links are dead and I haven't had to think about stylesheets fot like three years. I ginned up a profle in Color-That-Site for the moment but it's not as nice as the old stylesheet. Does anybody have a suggestion for a nice dark stylesheet for Something Awful that is primarily black and gray that I can use in FF 53?

They have shown themselves to be absolutely incompetent at secure design. Any features they have that are actually passably secure are typically a result of patching flaws that needed to be pointed out to them by Tavis and others.

Can you still create a webpage that looks exactly like the lastpass login page (since the plugin's login page is a webpage) so that it steals your credentials? But is also able to then log you into the plugin to hide that fact entirely? That was my favorite lastpass exploit.

Exactly what editorial or evidence-based control do you think Google or the headlines and SEO tags of whatever ten pages they throw up for starters are doing that makes their claims authoritative? Even if your spurious claim had any basis, wasting a post, even on straight-up white space, would be more informative than the borderline disinformation of using an appeal to Google results as a point of argument. And you're using this disinformation to convince people that a company that doesn't know how not to be cavalier with their company's sole reason for being, that can't even be audited or bonded against breaches, is the best way to safeguard the digital equivalent of themselves.

/hipstermode on I've been using KeePass since before LastPass even existed, and when I first heard of people excitedly using a service that entrusted their password storage to some random company I remember facepalming so hard at the idiocy of the very concept. I would still be facepalming exactly as hard even if LastPass, Inc. had a completely flawless security record and was in fact run by the seraphims of the empyrean choir themselves.

I upgraded to the 64bit v53.0 and just noticed that when I try to save an image by [right click] [save image as] Firefox will crash. Beyond this last update, I haven't changed anything with my setup for a while and I know saving images used to work. I restarted in safe mode and same thing. Anyone else having this issue? EDIT: I've had the 'save image in folder' extension turned off for ages but never uninstalled it. I turned it back on to see if I could still use it and, yep, it works fine. So Firefox can download images, just not through using its default menu item. Megillah Gorilla fucked around with this message at 18:38 on Apr 30, 2017 |

Works fine for me on 53 x64. Sounds more like that extension hosed something up royally, because the internet would be on fire if users couldn't save their hot 9gag memes.

I had something similar happen a couple of years ago. The cause was downloading a file to removable media and then trying to download something else later with the media removed. Open a new tab and go to "about:config". Search for "browser.download". In my case, the "lastDir" option was set to an inaccessible folder. Changing it to my desktop (or some other normally accessible folder) fixed it for me.

Thanks for the ideas, I had already gone though all the steps in the OP, including making a new profile, but nothing worked. Well, I did all the steps bar refreshing. Given how huge a hassle refreshing is and the fact that it's just this one specific issue, I'm willing to live with it for the moment. Save Image In Folder still works, despite not being multiprocess compatible, so I'll leave it turned on and see what happens with the next Firefox update.

Refreshing is functionally simpler than making a new profile, so if you already tried making a new profile, you're good. You're saying that FF acts weird even with a brand new profile and no extensions?

Yes. I just made a new profile and left it totally pristine to test to see if right click and 'save image as' still caused Firefox to crash. It did. Which is really weird and most likely means I need to do a reinstall to fix it. It might also be related to the weird bug I had where my 64bit version of FF kept changing itself to the 32bit one after reboot for about two months before fixing itself.
