[18:58:03] <chromas> Meanwhile, Epic Game Store still doesn't have a shopping cart
[19:13:33] <FatPhil> my fucking palemoon's got a fucking virus.
[19:13:51] <FatPhil> every time I select a twitter tab, it opens 3 more ft.com tabs.
[19:14:24] <FatPhil> if I close those 3, that makes the twitter tab selected again, and before I can hit the [x], 3 more appear.
[19:15:28] <FatPhil> When I go to the "page of all tab thumbnails", whatever it's called, it starts randomly reloading other tabs, and doesn't display the page of all thumbnails. So I have no way of closing the twitter one.
[19:15:44] <FatPhil> nuclear option chosen...
[19:15:58] <chromas> Restarting?
[19:16:04] <chromas> or opening Friefox?
[19:18:51] <FatPhil> the former, I can deselect that tab on restart
[19:19:41] <FatPhil> AFAIK, no JS should ever have been allowed within the twatter tab, so I have no idea what it was doing, or how it was able to do it.
[19:21:05] <FatPhil> I use FF only for sites that (a) absolutely demand a more modern browser and (b) I absolutely want to view. Otherwise, i have a fairly twitchy "fuckit, fuck you, don't care" trigger finger.
[19:21:10] <chromas> Have you updated it recently?
[19:21:28] <FatPhil> Nah, I'm an "old stable" kinda guy.
[19:21:35] <FatPhil> I'm a very old stable genius
[19:21:42] <chromas> I've had waterfox get tabs that aren't selectable. Usually gets a gap between it and the tabs above it
[19:21:57] <FatPhil> security patches get through, but that's about it.
[19:22:11] <chromas> That's probably it. Keeping those tabs secure
[19:25:43] <FatPhil> Our brewpub's production/inventory/sales info portal is pretty much the only thing I use FF for nowadays.
