of course, but I try to avoid URLs I don't know.
A URL you do know might possibly be owned (hacked into).
the only one I really use is youtube, but anyway, I found a much
better solution:
- when I need sound, I use iceweasel (ffx version 52), and current
ffx version (now 59) otherwise.
Can anybody answer these 2 questions:
- why, with ffx 59, the sound works for root and not for a normal
user,
even with pulseaudio?
- why these damned firefox guys so obviously ignore the user's needs,
and removed a feature wich worked from the origin to v52?
Just as an aside, how about switching to Seamonkey? Back when Firefox
brought out release 29, I didn't like what they did to the user
interface, and made the switch. Seamonkey is another fork of the
original Netscape code which preserves a lot of the original look and
feel, as well as (for me) reliability.
