Are you sure you don't have some other software updating Firefox in the background?

Normally this only happens on Linux when your package manager updates Firefox while it's running, and on Windows that doesn't happen because Firefox updates itself only when you (re)start it.

I'm pretty sure it's impossible to keep everything arranged "correctly" geographically while keeping the proportions correct and having them be regular shapes. If anything it's impressive that you can get it as close as this.

But then shouldn't there be a delay when using actual Chrome?

I thought pounds could be used for either mass or force, and in modern usage just saying "pounds" usually refers to mass. Wikipedia seems to agree:

Then you must not have read the linked article, which mentions three companies that have done just that.

Roaming charges made an unwelcome reappearance for UK mobile users heading to mainland Europe after Brexit. EE, Three and Vodafone were all quick to reintroduce the daily or monthly charges to use their mobiles while in the EU – which typically add £2 a day.

I would have said 平和 (heiwa). As another learner, I've never seen 安泰, and ピース I see mostly used as a reference to the "peace sign" (the hand gesture).

Only if they only spoke one language. Googling indicates there are somewhere around 1.45 to 2 billion total English speakers, so just knowing English might hit 25% already.

Edit: Also, the graph only lists languages with 50 million speakers, so the real proportions are smaller.

Constant audio buzzing and disconnect while docked. Need to enable Developer mode and change a setting to fix.

What's the setting? I have this issue and the only thing I found online is that it was a known problem to be fixed in a future update.

Apple, for one, because not only do they default to this but there's no option to change it separately for the mouse wheel vs touch pad without third party software.

While we're being pedantic,

lit. "octopus balls"

It doesn't literally mean that, it's more like "grilled octopus".

There is an advantage to the "new" model - when you subscribe, you retroactively get access to all past content as well.

Obviously for a newspaper or similar time-sensitive content this is not a very useful feature, but for other media/services it can be worth the trade-off of losing access after your subscription ends.

most newly created apps are using flutter

Do you have some examples? I've never heard of any desktop apps using Flutter, and trying to Google for examples only leads me to obscure ones I've never heard of.
