As a habit, I have my gnome favourites setup on the &quot;dash&quot;,  the lower bar. It contains the logos for firefox, calendar, ...terminal, ... <br />
And that dash pops up along the bottom when I press either the right or left windows key.<br />
<br />
<b>For this post, I name the left window key the super-key<br />
<br />
</b>Given we have no need for the window key, I looked at what happens (Gnome), when I press the super-key and one of the numbered keys.<br />
If I hold the super-key and press 1, this action is equivalent to my pressing the left most icon shown in the dash  (My firefox program).<br />
If I hold the super-key and press 2, this action is as if I pressed the second from the second dash icon (Meld program) <br />
<br />
Summary: The Super-key followed by a number (1-9), it opens that program represented by the icon's position on the bar.  <br />
<br />
Has this feature been there for all gnome versions?  (I am using Gnome 45 beta) or is it something that I just woke up to explore?  <br />
From my list of icons,  Super-key 9  opens my terminal mode.<br />
<br />
If this feature has been present since day zero, where have I been for the past 20 years of my dedicated gnome use?  <br />
My favourite expression under my signature seems to persist as a description of me.</div>

I was thinking there might be a phone number that phone techs use that can be dialed and if I were to press the button after dialing that service the system on the other end could intepret the tones and read back the number?<br />

I did search for &quot;dial tone readback servive&quot; and found this URL<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I see in my about<b></b>:serviceworkers  on Firefox some workers for my email portal login, a few forums I read (kde forum, fedoraproject).<br />
<br />
Is it right what those are for is real time notifications?  Because if so it's not working because I've never seen one. <br />
<br />
On some of my Firefox's, I was mystified what they were for and so turned the whole feature off in about<b></b>:config and saw nothing obvious at all missing.<br />
<br />
I found a chrome based explanation:<br />
<a href="https://developer.chrome.com/docs/workbox/service-worker-overview/" target="_blank">https://developer.chrome.com/docs/wo...rker-overview/</a><br />
<br />
So maybe it's just a performance enhancement, so pages you repetitively go to can cache frequently reused code.<br />
<br />
But I'd think it might be a risk of fingerprinting by putting state information into the cached code.  I don't suspect that's why it was designed but it could probably be used that way.  I'll probably turn if off since I've never seen anything bad happen on browsers without serviceworkers.<br />
<br />
How to turn off:<br />
set about<b></b>:config setting  &quot;dom.serviceWorkers.enabled&quot;  to &quot;false&quot;<br />
Confirm by &quot;about<b></b>:serviceworkers&quot; showing a page  &quot;Service Workers are not enabled&quot;<br />
<br />
This URL covers someone claiming they can be misused to mine personal data<br />
<a href="https://docs.bswen.com/blog/2026-04-02-browser-service-workers-data/" target="_blank">https://docs.bswen.com/blog/2026-04-...-workers-data/</a></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Turn about is fair play ... but they don't make it easy.<br />
<br />
Google prodded me again a week or so, ago.   &quot;Your storage limit is 75% full.&quot;   Not at all surprising.   They also did that six months ago, so I emptied my trash folder.    Again three months ago, so I deleted the backlog of fedoraforum emails.   No skill or finesse involved.   I just randomly selected a block from a year or so ago, and blew them all back to digital entropy.    <br />
<br />
So, today, trying very hard to avoid another chore I've got to do, I saved a few emails locally, then went high order on the rest.   Opened All Mail, scrolled to the bottom, selected the bottom entry -- scrolled to the top, [shift]+[click]ed the top one, waited for a few minutes for the stack to populate ... and hit the delete button.   Thunderbird dutifully commenced chewing on the problem.   Not an easy task.   There were 27,695 emails (with collapsed answer chains) in the que.   I went to get a glass of cold tea.   <br />
<br />
I got back in time to see a pop-up from Thunderbird.   The operation has failed.   Google reset the connection mid-wipe.   Thunderbird then started re-downloading 6700 emails.   (Mozilla really needs to put in a big red, &quot;STOP THAT!&quot; button.)<br />
<br />
Not optimal.<br />
<br />
So, I waited for the window to stabilize, and then did it again.    Three minutes later, Thunderbird tells me Google barfed out again.   When it re-connects, Google proceeds to attempt to re-stuff 17,000 emails back into my local machine.   <br />
<br />
Blue language ensued.<br />
<br />
In the end, after several tries, I hit on the best method.   Regardless of what Google was trying to feed back in, I selected a year's worth of emails at a time, and deleted those.   Then another.   Then another.    All told, it took 20 laps around the mulberry bush to get it all cleaned out.  (2006 to 2026).   And Gmail is still trying to clean up the ghosts and debris.   <br />
<br />
Serves 'em right.   &lt;..:dis:..&gt;<br />
<br />
And ... just to keep them from getting stupid and closing the account, I left the first two confirmation and welcome emails from 2006 sitting in the inbox.    <br />
<br />
That'll fix 'em!   &lt;..:rolleyes:..&gt;</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>...and what can we expect for the 2-3 coming years?<br />
<br />
5 minutes reading.<br />
<br />
I remember that before computers became widely available, advertisers were happy when they managed to “target housewives under fifty.”<br />
<br />
A few years later, I clearly remember discussions among people with advanced degrees—but who knew nothing about computers—who were convinced that a human was tailoring the ads they saw on the internet.<br />
That’s true :) <br />
<br />
I can easily imagine that the vast majority of forum members take great care with their practices, from passwords all the way to xyz.<br />
But I also notice that on the other side of the internet, the so called “data leaks” (as if they just slipped out on their own), along with other breaches and data exfiltrations, are becoming increasingly common.<br />
<br />
I also remember that about two years ago, another forum member started a thread about a massive theft of medical data in the U.S.<br />
Unfortunately, I see that there have been others since then.<br />
And, as far as I know, fresh medical data is very valuable.<br />
<br />
It's the same in Europe.<br />
From real estate agencies—which require a lot of documentation—to government websites, everything is included.<br />
<br />
A software used by doctors was hacked, and data was exposed—including the doctors’ personal notes about what they “understood” from their patients’ opinions.<br />
<br />
I remember an old junk email address I’d used to sign up for a few insignificant websites.<br />
I lost access to that email address because I forgot the password.<br />
Every now and then, out of curiosity, I check that email address on “Have I Been Pwned”<br />
One of those sites was hacked, and the first data breach was made public more than ten years ago:<br />
200k accounts.<br />
But over the past five years, this email address has appeared in several databases along with a few billion others.<br />
<br />
What I’ve noticed around me is that nobody cares at all.<br />
Including a former friend (R.I.P) who told me about problems with his bank, that his email address had changed on his phone, and so on.<br />
Half an hour of simple searches using his name, phone number, and primary email address: he’s everywhere.<br />
Later, he didn’t want to hear anything “because it works.”<br />
<br />
In closing: In light of all these problems in Europe, I came across the 2025 report from “Europol” (the European police) on the exploitation of data.<br />
With the help of AIs, it’s become frightening: from extremely well-personalized phishing attempts all the way to [censored].<br />
<br />
I pay attention to my level, but there’s nothing I can do if my personal data stored on a government website is leaked because some senior official who’s clueless about IT is messing things up, and the infrastructure allows him to log in with high privileges without 2FA.<br />
<br />
What can I do as a lambda person?<br />
Go back to the MS ecosystem and sign up everywhere to post selfies so I can feel like I'm alive while I wait for the unknown? No, thanks.<br />
<br />
Obs 1: I could also have talked about the European GDPR—which I read in its entirety after a curious ahem ‘symptom’ on a specific day—and the laws that will be enacted shortly, but this thread would quickly turn political, and an admin would have to close it.<br />
<br />
Obs 2: This topic is intentionally posted here, in the “Wibble” section, rather than in “Privacy and Security,” in the hope of getting something else...</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I used an online free service to build a complicated legal form.   I usually avoid those because if you review the fine print they reserve the right to give away your information.  Frequently there's a &quot;do not sell my private information&quot; web widget but even if you select that, who trusts that?  I don't.  Plus they could still &quot;give&quot; information away.<br />
Plus some of these forms are not even trustable people. The form I'm filling out is mundane enough to not be worth the exorbitant fee of a lawyer.<br />
<br />
But it seemed reasonably safe to simply put fake names, numbers, addresses in for all the principals. Like 555-444-1234 and 123 Fake Street.<br />
When I was done it generated a file template as a docx which I downloaded.  The other options instead of docx are pdf and plain text.  So docx is the best option for me to edit back in the real information and still have the formatting.<br />
<br />
So the question I have is, how to review the docx or its extracted files to make sure there's no embedded code or scripting I don't want in there?<br />
In Libreoffice I used &quot;Tools&quot; -&gt; &quot;Macros&quot; -&gt; &quot;Edit Macros&quot;  but didn't see any macros.  But I'm wondering if there's any other things to look for.</div>
