There are have also been some exploits that are possible ONLY while the machine is booted and already in that state unlocked state, rebooting relocks all the HW encryption and clears main memory.

I work in IT I am well aware.

Not spending hundreds to upgrade my server to support 4K to 4K transcoding. Even accelerated on a VERY recent CPU or GPU Encoding in AV1 is costly while at the same time decoding H.265.

Again Essentially every major browser supports HVEC now, other than Firefox.

It is generally hard to have an opposing opinion or need discussion on the internet without people feeling attacked and start name calling.

Na man I have modern 4k cameras, I need a modern browser… They have literally build chipsets around this and many standards call for h.264 or h.265. That isn’t changing.

Mozilla decided over 8 years ago not to support HVEC because of patents…

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1332136

Core web app compatibility vs … “enhanced” ad blocking. MS teams and some other business tools also don’t support Firefox but work fine in Chrome and Safari.

It is something the Firefox team needs to work on again. I used Firefox from when it was released until Chrome came out and mopped the floor with it. At the time Firefox became the bloated beast and went through a reset.

Unfortunately trying to have a firm stance on not implementing HVEC when they no longer had the largest market share was a bad move and they seem to be slowly back tracking on that.

Not when you are using an NVR with scrubbing and everything in the web UI. https://frigate.video/

All in all it would be an inconvenient workaround for something that already works seamlessly across Safari, Edge, Chrome etc.

Night, windows only, and needs to be enabled with about: config… ie it almost has some support maybe. Also doesn’t work via webrtc so it doesn’t actually help me with the viewing the security cam feeds.

H.265 is the defecto standard on Security cameras, and I am not going to migrate content to AV1 that is already in H.265.

No, HVEC / H.265 codec support so no modern 4K security camera or plex/jellyfin etc high quality video support.

It kills the full version of uBlock but there is a lite version that has fewer functions as well.

But hotmail / outlook.com still exists… Does netscape mail?

Odd not a single mention of hotmail in there the original web based email service which arguably was the one of the prime options till gmail offered way more storage.

The lack of HVEC/h.265 support is kind of a deal breaker in firefox (windows nightly builds don’t count as done). I need it to view h.265 security cameras and the occasional movie streamed via browser.

Edit: For those suggesting multiple browsers I could just use Edge if I wanted to… still better compatibility as it is essentially chromium.

I have a list of other things that don’t work reliably in Firefox such as various video conferencing tools so no, I am not going to switch to Firefox as my primary browser again anytime soon.

I was a Firefox user for many years but there are too many daily things I use now that prevent me from using it as a primary browser for work and causal use.

This report makes it sound like they had a video call with camera on, vs other reports where they recommend people have camera on because they didn’t

also used AI tools to create a profile picture and match that face during the video conference calls.

This doesn’t sounds like the video was on / faked only that they had a call where the profile picture was used.

As expected… COMBINED other manufactures are starting to make meaningful amounts of EVs. Individually it is funny how few they sell however.

Tesla still sells nearly 10x the number of EVs (BEVs) to the next most popular brand (globally).

Correction Tesla and BYD are embarrassing the “REST” of the the manufactures. Globally.

BYD numbers are often mix EV as a combination of PHEV and BEV, their BEV sales have substantially grown.

○ Tesla market share 20% ○ BYD Auto 15% ○ Geely Holdings 8% ○ Others 57%

Likely has more to do with the cost of 1-2million per station vs 250,000 to 500,000 for a typical EV fast charging station

Electrolysis is at least 25% less as efficient than just storing the electricity in battery’s as it produces both oxygen and hydrogen and then you need to spend some more of the power compressing it…. Even before you get to transporting it. Otherwise we would just have electrolytes plants all over already.

There is no clean, cheap, efficient source of hydrogen. You still need to transport it around burning more fuel to transport it all around.

There are already multiple ways to get clean electricity for BEVs and the supply chain is cleaner… Plant, grid, car.

Also coal is already a TINY TINY % of US power production, https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/us-energy-facts/ , going to natural gas sourced hydrogen would be a step backward.

When source to consumption is considered BEV is the cleanest option so far.
