Web Console output rewrite plan

This document describes the work we did for the Web Console output rewrite / reimplementation, see bug 778766.

Implementation is mostly complete. We still need to fix up message filtering and grouping.

This document does not accurately reflect the current Web Console output API.

Writing an Actor

A Simple Hello World

Here's a simple Hello World actor. It is a global actor (not associated with a given browser tab).

let protocol = require("devtools/server/protocol");

let {method, Arg, Option, RetVal} = protocol;

past

// -sp-context:browser
"use strict";
const Cc = Components.classes;
const Ci = Components.interfaces;
const Cu = Components.utils;

Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/devtools/Console.jsm");
let promise = Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/commonjs/sdk/core/promise.js").Promise;

let gMgr = Cc["@mozilla.org/memory-reporter-manager;1"]

fitzgen

let { devtools } = Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/devtools/Loader.jsm", {});

function openToolbox() {
  let target = devtools.TargetFactory.forTab(gBrowser.selectedTab);
  return gDevTools.showToolbox(target, "jsdebugger");
}

function closeToolbox() {
  let target = devtools.TargetFactory.forTab(gBrowser.selectedTab);
  return gDevTools.closeToolbox(target);

Enable systemd in WSL 2

NOTE: If you have Windows 11 there is now an official way to do this in WSL 2, use it if possible - see MS post here (WINDOWS 11 ONLY)

This guide will enable systemd to run as normal under WSL 2. This will enable services like microk8s, docker and many more to just work during a WSL session. Note: this was tested on Windows 10 Build 2004, running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS in WSL 2.

• To enable systemd under WSL we require a tool called systemd-genie

• Copy the contents of install-sg.sh to a new file /tmp/install-sg.sh:

Update

I've put both the MP3 and M3U8 lists in one repo, hosted on Codeberg. It is mirrored to this gist.

No, your cryptocurrency cannot work

Whenever the topic of Bitcoin's energy usage comes up, there's always a flood of hastily-constructed comments by people claiming that their favourite cryptocurrency isn't like Bitcoin, that their favourite cryptocurrency is energy-efficient and scalable and whatnot.

They're wrong, and are quite possibly trying to scam you. Let's look at why.

What is a cryptocurrency anyway?

There are plenty of intricate and complex articles trying to convince you that cryptocurrencies are the future. They usually heavily use jargon and vague terms, make vague promises, and generally give you a sense that there must be something there, but you always come away from them more confused than you were before.
