Wayland display scaling sucks

Wayland's approach to scaling sucks. It's broken by design. Sorry, devs, it just does.

If I set wayland display scaling to use 1.25 scaling it scales up to 2 then back down to 1.25. This makes everything apart from fonts (which are handled differently) blurry and has a bunch of annoying side effects.

  1. Anything running in XWayland is scaled horridly and looks super blurry.

  2. Any borders of UI elements or thin lines suddenly become blurry because 2 pixels can't go into 1 pixel so the scaling algorithm blurs the the nearest two to the average colour between them.

  3. I can't view an entire 3840x2160 image in a web browser without scaling it down.

Firefox 57 Windows 10 UWP Style Overlay Scrollbars

As far as I am aware the time has come and as of Firefox 72 XUL has been stripped from firefox and so the method used to inject this scrollbar theme is no longer supported -- reference the following for future scroll themes:

Mozilla is currently working to phase out the APIs used to make this theme work. I will try to maintain each version until that time but eventually there will be no workaround. When that time comes there is a new, but more limited api for applying simple themes to scrollbars. In nightly I am currently using the following userContent.css

:root{
	scrollbar-width: thin;
	scrollbar-color: rgb(82, 82, 82) rgb(31, 31, 31);
}

Safari 10.1 `nomodule` support
// UPDATE: In 2023, you should probably stop using this! The narrow version of Safari that
// does not support `nomodule` is probably not being used anywhere. The code below is left
// for posterity.
/**
* Safari 10.1 supports modules, but does not support the `nomodule` attribute - it will
* load <script nomodule> anyway. This snippet solve this problem, but only for script
* tags that load external code, e.g.: <script nomodule src="nomodule.js"></script>
*
* Again: this will **not** prevent inline script, e.g.:

Use ffmpeg and mp4box to prepare DASH-AVC/264 v1.0 VoD
See my DASH-IF presentation from October, 2014:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/misc.meltymedia/dash-if-reveal/index.html#/
1. encode multiple bitrates with keyframe alignment:
ffmpeg -i ~/Movies/5D2_Portrait.MOV -s 1280x720 -c:v libx264 -b:v 1450k -bf 2 \
-g 90 -sc_threshold 0 -c:a aac -strict experimental -b:a 96k -ar 32000 out.mp4
My input was 30 fps = 3000 ms. If it were 29.97, then a GOP size of 90 frames will yield a base segment
size of 3003 milliseconds. You can make the segment size some multiple of this, e.g.: 6006, 9009, 12012.
