| schestowitz[TR2] | <blockquote> | Nov 22 13:42 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <p>The update modernizes how the browser stores files on Linux systems and aligns its behavior with that of most desktop applications, which have been doing so for years. Here’s what I’m talking about. </p> | Nov 22 13:42 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <p> Until now, Firefox placed nearly all of its user files—settings, profiles, data, and cache—inside a single folder called ~/.mozilla in the user’s home directory. This approach worked, but it also contributed to the familiar clutter many Linux users see when applications each create their own hidden folders. </p> | Nov 22 13:42 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | <blockquote> | Nov 22 13:42 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <p>The e-book viewer adds a minor enhancement: hovering over a highlight now displays the date it was created. The Comments editor receives two updates focused on text handling. Case-change operations now preserve as much existing formatting as possible, improving accuracy when editing styled text. </p> | Nov 22 13:42 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | [15:59:21] <whatA____> this time the text was rotated 90deg counterclockwise | Nov 22 16:17 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | [15:59:36] <whatA____> and the outline suggestion became "put white shadows far away" | Nov 22 16:17 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | [16:36:44] <whatA____> the only thing is to copy the stying of the "plagiarism" text to the "slop fake work" above http://techrights.org/i/2025/11/slop-betanews.png | Nov 22 16:43 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | Dear members, dear colleagues, | Nov 22 21:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Following up on our earlier publications see here and here, we would like to inform you as follows: | Nov 22 21:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | As no proposals for amendments to the 2023 Election Rules were submitted by the published deadline of Wednesday, 12 November at noon, the text of these rules remains unchanged, and the 2023 Election Rules remain in force. | Nov 22 21:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Fourteen colleagues stepped forward before the deadline of Wednesday, 19 November at noon, and therefore stand as candidates for the Election Committee. We sincerely thank all of them for volunteering. | Nov 22 21:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | We are in the unusual situation of having more candidates than available seats (5 to 9, according to the Election Rules). It will therefore be up to the General Assembly (GA) on 4 December to appoint the members of the Election Committee. | Nov 22 21:55 |
