I'm not quite sure when I switched from "the specific device my console is wired to matters a lot" to "all devices are fungible network terminals", but I am excited that it finally happened

telltale sign of a liberal: they don't or won't understand how power works. So they do embarrassing things like say "rest in power" when someone who wielded incredible power in life dies

tell me they didn't. Tell me you didn't see someone say this for Colin Powell.
I mean at this point how surprising is it when liberals misuse radical language. It happens basically every way you can think of. They think they're the left.

I visit gmail.com less than once a month for something.
I visit my personal mail server's webmail a lot.
Firefox *still* puts in "mail.google.com" as the autofill whenever I type mail into the address bar. *FIREFOX*

It's just annoying and seems calculated to disrespectRight, 'cause I have nothing better to do.
If you must know, I actually had search suggestions on my mind because of seeing a post these past days about a new feature "Firefox Suggest" in Firefox 93 (which made me go back to my settings to mkake sure it was all disabled).
Cool. That makes sense. The last clause was where you went from being helpful, to be disrespectful (in perception). It's not that I don't want to engage new people, it's more that I am exhausted and don't have time.
I am a little surprised you're being as combative about this because you seem very put out by a response with a tone you didn't like, despite the fact that it was responding to a tone problem. My goal with my initial response to you was to get you to step back and think about the wording of your response. Obviously it was combative, and probably too much so.
Search Suggestions is the kind of thing that would cause similar problems, though not this one, and is definitely something worth bringing into the conversation if you missed that nuance.

To sum up, I don't think there's any meaningful difference between any of those as far as the address bar is concerned, and how all of those get sorted and presented is anyone's guess. There is however a "Show search suggestions ahead of browsing history" toggle.
I don't know what settings you have set and everything keeps changing between releases, so it could be that something got introduced that wasn't there before. I know I try go to settings from time to time to check, and there's always new stuff - and it gets enabled by default, btw.
there's a whole bunch of providers of results (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/urlbar/UrlbarProvidersManager.jsm#35). My guess is something somewhere in this is responsible.silverwizard
Gmail is in my Most Visited bookmarks but mail.obscuritus.ca is not. But convenient.email is. So it's not just "ony stuff from a major provider" or something.This is the kind of stuff I was referring to. If you go to check the settings, the Firefox address bar can autocomplete from any of: History, Bookmarks, Open tabs, Shortcuts (the New tab tiles), and search suggestions from your default Search engine - and now from Firefox 93 onwards, the new "Firefox Suggest" thing which is similar to Search engine suggestions, but from Mozilla. You also have "Most visited sites" (which I guess comes from applying some algorithm to History, which is probably totally overengineered and "intelligent"), "Firefox Snippets", and "Sponsored shortcuts" (I think that last one is new too? I just saw it).

yeah, and that's exactly what the original post was mad about! Why does firefox insist on this sponsored black magic!

I'd like to remind you all that while Firefox may not be great, Chrome is a lot worse and telling people not to use Firefox is just going to push most of them back to Chrome. Demanding that people go "all the way" and rejecting incremental steps is pretty high on the list of reasons why free/libre/open/non-megacorp software isn't more popular.

@PINE64 My pinebook pro's charge LED (the red one) turns on when I plug it in, but I can't get other signs of life out of it.
Are there obvious places to look? I see on the forums it's almost always eMMC needing to be reseated (which I did). I am wondering if there's anything I should do that should cause obvious signs of life?
(Unplugging the battery and then plugging in the bypass did not seem to help)

I found exposition hard to naturalistically write without being condecending, and I was three books deep into rituals about dreams in order to try to make something obvious-but-out-of-left-field
I tried some other small pieces on that style, and they worked, but building a *plot* felt like it needed more research

Which it decided to load via https
So I sent it to
https://charred.obscuritus.ca:8080
And it decided to honour HSTS on non-standard ports (which is wrong)
I had to do http://charred:8080 which did load
And this is all caused because charred is a ruby app and so using Sinatra (a web server) to run itself, rather than the two obvious things of:
Running via a multiplexed webserver which can handle ssl upgrades and name based virtual hosting
Not using http and using a protocol more suited to running a character generator (which, to be fair doesn't exist, CHARGEN is sadly not well-suited to running a character generator for an RPG, but I can dream)
