    Short of a miracle, this game is done. And yet again, it's stupid penalties and an absolute inability to convert in the red zone that's costing the Niners. So, so frustrating.

    Huge interception, what a difference that could make.

    I look forward to Brady telling us what a 4D chess move that was from Patrick.

    I think that he, like Patrick, is someone who has tremendous talent but, like Patrick, he's hard to actually like very much, and also he's very keen on talking about Patrick, especially when Patrick has done something, but even when Patrick isn't really involved, it's important to mention Patrick.

    Patrick.

    Thanks, yeah, I actually started doing that, but having those sites open as tabs in browser windows just wasn't working for me. That, and the favicons just being the FF logo instead of the logo for each "app". I might have another go, but I've been busy with work and have just taken the path of least resistance so far.

    That's interesting about FF and PWAs, I didn't know that it used to do something like that. I guess Google aren't the only ones who kill useful stuff! 😁

    Thanks. My main issue is the lack of progressive web app ability in Firefox. I have my Outlook, Gmail, Keep, Calendar, Netflix and other sites set up that way, but can't do it with FF.

    I did hear that they might be working on adding it though, which would be great.

    To be fair to those people (which I'm really not inclined to be), I'm pro-choice but strongly against the death penalty. So I guess it swings both ways.

    Interesting that Calvin says Autumn instead of Fall. I'm from the UK, so it's always Autumn to me, but is it much used in the States? I always thought it was just Fall.

    I've decided (after seeing the advice repeatedly!) to try and move away from Chrome and use FF instead. However I've immediately come across an issue which is a bit of a deal-breaker for me, and although I've looked into it, I haven't seen an answer anywhere. One of the best features in Chrome is the abilty to create a shortcut for an individual URL. This shortcut can then be placed on the desktop, start menu or quicklaunch toolbar (Win 10) and opened as if it were a program in its own right - so, no URL bar, no tabs, no bookmarks, just the site content. I use this method every day for a number of different sites - Outlook, Gmail, Calendar, Keep, Sheets, Docs, etc, and it's perfect. So much so that I usually forget that I'm technically opening all of these in Chrome at all, not least because the site favicon shows in the taskbar in place of the browser logo. So, I assumed that FF would be able to do the same thing... but apparently not. Am I missing something? I've found people discussing old features like SSB (site-specific browsing) and PWA (progressive web apps), but as far as I can tell all work on this in FF has been discontinued. I would maybe just put up with this, and use Chrome shortcuts for these sites, and FF for everything else, except that links clicked from within them will open in Chrome intead of FF, which makes for a confusing experience. Anyone know of a good solution to this? Thanks in advance!

    Already getting sick of seeing 'AI' results at the top of a search when all you want is a link to a site? I just discovered [this article](https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/take-google-back-to-1998-how-to-get-10-blue-links-in-google-search-results/) showing a way to not see it (although it doesn't disable it altogether). TLDR: * In Chrome open settings menu, choose Search engine on left menu and scroll down to site search * Click Add button and choose a name (eg Old Google, Google Web or whatever) * Add a shortcut word (eg web, og, or whatever) * Add this URL string: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14 * Save that, and now if you search for something and use the shortcut word you set you'll just get proper results, no 'AI' shown * Or, if you don't want to have to add a shortcut word, you just make that search your default (use the 3 dot menu next to the name you set) and all searches will show that way, no shortcut word needed. *EDIT - meant to add that there are detailed instructions for Edge, Firefox and Safari in the article if you don't use Chrome* Hope that helps someone - I really don't like all that extra nonsense when I just want a link to a site that I know exists! [Obligatory - "or don't use Chrome/Google...", I know - but people do, so this might be useful]

    Just wondering if anyone knows of a way to do this? Here's my use case in more detail I have a laptop and a PC, with the laptop connecting to one of my 2 monitors via an HDMI splitter. This allows me to use my PC on both screens most of the time, but then quickly switch one monitor to show the laptop, when required. Only thing is that doing that causes all PC windows* on Screen 2 to jump to Screen 1, while Screen 2 now shows the laptop's windows. That's fine, and I get why it does that (effectively the PC thinks I've disconnected Screen 2). \* (usually it's a bunch of Chrome windows, 5-7 of them - for work/multi-client reasons this works best for me and my PC handles it fine) When I switch the HDMI splitter back, all PC windows remain on Screen 1, while Screen 2 is once again showing my PC desktop, but with no windows. Ideally all windows would flip back to where they were before, but I don't think there's a way to do this, and again, that's fine. My next preferred option is to be able to able to move all Chrome windows over from Screen 1 to Screen 2 quickly - and this is what I'm looking for advice on. I can't seem to find a way to "select" all/multiple Chrome windows and shift them to Screen 2, but it feels like there must be a way? Any help greatly appreciated :-)

    Sorry Norway. Our jammy win in Oslo robbed you of a chance to experience a major tournament. Instead, your place went to a badly organised rabble, with no urgency, no ambition and not even basic ball control. You should have been in this tournament, and that disgraceful excuse for a Scotland team should have been languishing in 3rd or 4th. How in god's name did we beat Spain? Sorry Norway, you deserved better.

    Of limited interest, I'm sure, but I spent a bit of time working all this out, and wanted to post it before Scotland go 2 down after 5 minutes tomorrow and render it all moot... So. If Scotland lose to Hungary, we're out. No ifs, buts, or maybes. If we draw then we need at least 2 out of 3 scenarios to happen in order to sneak through: - Spain beat Albania AND Italy beat Croatia - Turkey beat Czechia AND Portugal beat Georgia - Denmark beat Georgia AND England beat Slovenia by 5 or more (I think) If Scotland win against Hungary then any 2 (or more) of these scenarios gets us through - Spain avoid defeat to Albania (Scotland would finish better than Albania and also better than one of Croatia or Italy, regardless of their result) - Netherlands beat Austria (Scotland would be ahead of both Austria and Poland) - England avoid defeat to Slovenia (Scotland would be ahead of Slovenia and also at least one of Denmark or Serbia). - There's also the possibility that Slovenia hammer England (Scotland could finish better than England on goal difference and also would be ahead of at least one of Denmark or Serbia) - Portugal avoid defeat to Georgia (Scotland would be ahead of Georgia and also ahead of one of Turkey or Czechia) - Even if Georgia did win, we could beat them on GD, but we'd have to thrash Hungary, so not likely. - No draws on match day 3 in group E. Doesn't matter who wins, as long as two teams do. - Or, if there are 1 or 2 draws in group E then it comes down to goal difference, so we would have to hammer Hungary, see above. And yes, I made a spreadsheet to work all this out... :-)

    Come on Scotland fans, let's get this community up and running in advance of Scotland's forthcoming run to becoming European champions! 0' - Game has just kicked off, 0-0 15' - Decent start, couple of really good chances already for Hanley and Forrest, both probably should have been buried. 30' - Scotland in control, but can't get a shot on target. HT - Same old Scotland, never scoring... 58' - GOAL! Christie slams it home after getting into a bit of a fankle with Shankland (a shankle? A fankland?) Nice ball in by Robertson too. 85' - GOAL! Adams. I didn't see it, but apparently it was a good one 👍 ========================================================= Lineups: >Gibraltar (Manager: Julio Ribas, Formation: 5 - 4 - 1) **1 J.

    Could have done without this. Not that I rate Dykes all that highly, but we're already thin on forwards. Someone wrap Shankland up in bubble wrap!

    Example post: https://lemmy.world/post/14058825 I've no idea if this is technically possible at all, but on posts like the one above, where multiple images have been added, it would be really handy to be able to swipe between them as if they were in a gallery. At present it's a case of open one, close it, open the next, etc... Same for comments, not sure if that would be different than posts. Thanks :-)
