Scripted shortcut caused double-click #disaster of #sysadmin's own making

source: https://www.theregister.com/2023/10/09/who_me/

Rather than right-clicking on the script and selecting "Edit" to make his small change, Ricardo had instead executed the script. On his production machine. The machine that stored all of his carefully constructed scripting – not to mention absolutely everything else he needed to do his job.

And of course there was no "Are you sure Y/N?" to save Ricardo's skin, was there? With a fraction of a second, the script merrily started eating away the hard drive … and Ricardo's livelihood.

I just released a new version of ksh (the Korn shell), of which I took on the maintenance in May 2020 after AT&T abandoned it and other community efforts went nowhere. The new ksh 93u+m/1.0.0 has roughly a thousand bugs fixed compared to the last decade-old stable release, as well as a good number of enhancements. It is still highly portable; it builds and runs on every Unix-like system under the sun that is not a complete museum piece (and on some that are).

Mozilla Firefox is slow even if hardware acceleration is enabled?

Try enabling gfx.x11-egl.force-enabled in about:config to force the use of EGL1 and then restart the web browser.
If this works, enabling layers.acceleration.force-enabled can boost your performance even more by enabling OpenGL alongside EGL. 2
This also works on Flatpak if the security permissions are correct (use Flatseal3 if needed).
