When I installed Bazzite on my Asus laptop I got an Armory Crate application. There seems to be something similar for MSI laptops called MControlCenter, but don’t know anything about it. Hope this gets you going in the right direction.

My meaning exactly. I used to run Nightly on all my devices until a couple years ago. Can’t remember why I switched. Maybe my sync got borked? Risks of unstable.
Does Thunderbird still belong to Mozilla? I thought they’d dumped it.
Ah wow. You’re right. Guess I never noticed that on mobile. I always set that option on FF desktop.
They seriously think I would want to donate my money when their useless leadership is getting paid millions. Out of their fucking tree is what they are. 😆
Ah geez. That’s weird with a beard.
Happened to think of this today and found this site
Scroll down to the Browser Geolocation section, expand it, and click Start Test. It prompted me as expected and returned the correct data.
If FF isn’t the problem, maybe there’s a recent bug in a commonly used js framework? 🤷♂️
FWIW, I checked the pi-hole and there doesn’t appear to be any contemporaneous blocks for my phone when attempting to share location. (I wouldn’t think that would be necessary for location sharing but I’ve been surprised before.)
I also checked to see if Android shows that the location was accessed by the FF app and it does. It’s just not making it to the page for whatever reason.
I’ll report back if I discover anything more.
Something must be broken right now. I noticed this problem recently on the AQI site (link below). Popup does nothing. Going through the lock icon menu can change it from block to allow, but the site still doesn’t get the location.
Do you have a pi-hole? After I set mine up, suddenly YouTube stopped remembering my history until I allowed the right domain. Maybe this is the same sort of problem? I’ll try to check that today.
I mainly started using exFAT on flash drives (even on new ones) since it is interoperable between Windows, Linux, and Intel Mac. To be clear, I never don’t unmount the drive properly under normal conditions, but I remember reading around the time it was introduced that the Windows implementation guaranteed the buffers were flushed after every write (meaning no unwritten data remains when the activity indicator on the drive stops blinking) but now I can’t find any evidence that was ever the case. Wouldn’t be the first time I got bad info from the Internet. 🤷♂️
Random thoughts, no particular order
I think btrfs was the default the last time I installed Bazzite, but I don’t really know anything about it so I switched it to ext4. I understand the snapshot ability is nice with rolling release distros, though.
It’d been ages since I’d used FAT32 for anything until I made a Debian live USB when I was setting up my pi-hole on an old Core2Duo recently. It would only boot on FAT32 for reasons I probably once knew. 😆
NTFS was an improvement over the FATs what with the journaling, security, file streams, etc. I use it wherever I still use Windows (work).
Most of my general purpose USB flash drives use exFAT. I like not having to worry about eject/unmount.
There was a lot of coverage of it back at the beginning of July. Wish I’d paid more attention then haha.

Google’s official position is “contact us” which I did today, but they wouldn’t tell me whether it would cost me or not without sending them a video of the problem, which rubbed me the wrong way. I know my phone is out of warranty now but the manufacturer broke this with their own update. Probably no more Google hardware for me. 😐

My man! That hadn’t occurred to me. Phone appears to be off. Thank you!
All I’ve gotten so far are sore fingers. 😆
Wouldn’t USB debugging have to be enabled on the device for that to work?
I only have the two options, Try Again and Factory Data Reset. The first just reboots the device and I return to the same two options. The second asks for a confirmation, then it shows an error (/system/bin/tune2fs is missing) and takes me to the “dead droid” screen briefly, after which it reboots and we’re back to the same two options.
I have already said “goodbye google” and “hello moto”, but long story short I had to factory reset my old Pixel 6 last night and ran smack dab into this:

Right now I don’t even know how to turn the damn thing off. 😆
What’s a long time? I literally scheduled a pickup last year for a pre-paid label and it was free. Anyway, another commenter seemed to say that it’s the shipper’s choice whether they cover the home pickup or not.
Sure and I’ll probably do that on Monday. Just another pain in the butt.
Try harder Samsung. Google permabricked my Pixel 6. Twats.
