I was curious as well so I looked at the git tree. I'm not familiar with Firefox code, but I'm assuming I found the list:

pref("extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains", 
"accounts-static.cdn.mozilla.net,accounts.firefox.com,
addons.cdn.mozilla.net,addons.mozilla.org,
api.accounts.firefox.com,content.cdn.mozilla.net,
discovery.addons.mozilla.org,install.mozilla.org,
oauth.accounts.firefox.com,profile.accounts.firefox.com,
support.mozilla.org,sync.services.mozilla.com");

From here

So it looks like it's mostly to do with the account system of Firefox. I'm not sure why their websites would need special protection, but whatever. It's not malicious, for now

This is interesting, and I personally feel he is fighting it only because it buys him more time. In a different article (linked in this one), where they announce Alabama's plan to use nitrogen it says:

Smith, in seeking to block the state’s second attempt to execute him by lethal injection, had argued that nitrogen should be available.

So he literally asked to use nitrogen, they said "ok" and now's he's saying "how dare you try to use me as a guinea pig"

It means a functionality that used to work stopped. It's used in software development. It's common for software to go through "regression testing" to see if everything old still works after a new feature is added.

Amazon did this with their cloud security cameras as well.

Spotify did it with their "Car thing"

It's common and I agree, should be illegal.

I've been seeing the black screen on Firefox. Still better than an ad, but it would be nice to be gone lol

It's common in America, especially with electric stoves. All gas stoves I've seen use the front, though.

It's because they were giving free domains for a long time. Then when they were recently being revoked, Dessalines paid for the domain to keep it (I'm guessing to avoid losing the current community+their m+l origins?)

My childhood pitbull bit me in the face and I have permanent face scarring from it. I had to get 60+ stitches to reconstruct my face.

It's not a valid point to say "most don't attack people" when the breed is much more likely to attack a person compared to other breeds. Then it's made worse by the fact they've been bred to be extra good at attacking.

My company buys a specific board from an Israeli company.

We have been working on an in house alternative for a few years now. Now we're scared to actually perform the switch because of the anti-boycott laws
