(https://linuxactionnews.com/280) The question of why isn't KDE Plasma the main DE for a main distro comes around every once and a while (https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/x8m0bt/comment/injemm2/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3).

Mozilla's pitch (https://blog.mozilla.org/en/privacy-security/privacy-security-tips/your-childs-name-makes-a-horrible-password/). Brian Krebs has this to say (https://krebsonsecurity.com/password-dos-and-donts/). You can check your passwords against Have I Been Pwned (https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords). If you use Bitwarden/Vaultwarden, you can use the reports (https://bitwarden.com/help/reports/) to check exposed, reused, and weak passwords.

Version 110, Firefox (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/110.0/releasenotes/) got the addition to import bookmarks, passwords and history from Opera, Opera GX, and Vivaldi.

Microsoft Edge adds Adobe Acrobat (https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/microsoft-edge-will-switch-to-adobe-acrobats-pdf-rendering-engine/). Feedback "ee" "dee", gotcha 😉 Turns out we were the joke instead of making one. Apologies. Anonymous Listener suggests ownCloud ownCloud (https://owncloud.com) We'll check it out and report back. Daniel M. says... Podman (https://podman.io) Daniel's document (https://github.com/TeamLinux01/melzak_site/blob/main/SETUP.md) Frank W. says... Brave is great and cheer from the Great White North, eh! Thanks Frank! Eric M. on Youtube says... Pixar and other animation studios use RHEL for their workstations. In Podman, the pod comes from kubernetes. A pod is a group of containers that are in the same namespace.
