Not a fan of using a school shooter as a meme format
I wouldn’t have known had you not said this. Never saw this image before.
I didn’t know until just now either. I actually assumed this was from that Making a Murderer documentary.
Do you think people use it because they don’t know it’s origin?
Well he’s not actively shooting so it is ok
yeah, thats kinda not good. i didn’t know what the guy did, i saw a couple of scenes where he tried to plead insanity to get out of his responsibillity. thank you for bringing this up.
I don’t know how it is in the USA but here pleading insanity is not a way to “get out of your responsibility”, it can actually be a risky move because you are at risk of being imprisoned for the rest of your life. While a normal life sentence normally isn’t a life sentence.
Generally people who fake insanity are facing the death penalty instead of a life sentence.
Alright. Then I fully support it. No one deserves to die by the death penalty.
thanks, I never saw it this way. I am not sure that the guy from the video understood it as you explained it to me.
They do, and I’m tired of pretending I’m not
I turned my tab habit into a bookmark habit. Equally useful (ie not very), but far less messy.
Bookmarks are too permanent. Tabs are for things I’m interested in but don’t really care about (and so I’ll probably never get back to). I use different windows for different types of things, so it’s organized. I just have an alias to kill Firefox when I want to game.
Creating and deleting bookmarks is simple. You’re just lazy.
And that’s OK; it’s a victimless as a crime gets. Just own it.
Oh I own it. I don’t have an issue with taking the lower effort option. I also like that they go away easily when I close the window.
yeah IDK how the fuck tabs overtook bookmarks as the way to save websites. i got into the bookmarking before tabs were even a thing. seeing people with 6 year old tabs amongst the thousands makes me dizzy. there’s so so much better of a way…
Especially since tabs can’t be organised as easily as bookmarks can. How will you ever actually find that tab?

This is the way, van even organize into categories. I’ve never understood the appeal of having 400+ tabs open in a browser all the time.
I tried that for a minute but it didn’t flow for me, now I use an extension (tab stash) that does basically the same thing but ✨prettier✨
I’m the opposite. I’m a compulsive window and tab closer. I say I regret closing a tab or window about 30% of the time.
Ctrl+Shift+T to reopen the tab!
Alright let me do that
Ctrl+Shift+T
Ctrl+Shift+T
Ctrl+Shift+T
Ctrl+Shift+T
Ah dang it I must’ve used that tab to search for something else. Oh well
Ctrl+H to open history then!
Yeah that’s usually my strategy
Also if you Ctrl+Shift+T and then click back in the re-opened tab works too
I tend to find that Ctrl+Q solves the problem immediately
Also in Firefox, when using multi-window + multi-tab browsing, if you close a window without closing all of its tabs, you can press
Ctrl+Shift+N
in a remaining window (of the same Profile) to reopen closed window, which will now have all the tabs that you closed the window with. You can then again pressCtrl+Shift+T
on the reopened window to restore its closed tabs.
how do you do it ?
There’s always the history menu.
The little x in the corner
Or ctrl+W or if you’re already touching the mouse middle click.
it rids you of any regret ?
It rids you of any regret that’s currently displayed on screen, sure.
I feel attacked
Emotional support tabs
…I closed 1500 tabs a couple weeks ago…
Each tab must have been one micron wide, how did you even expect to be able to click on a specific one in the future with that many open - wait, I think I’ve answered my own question.
They have a minimum width and then you can scroll
But the minimum width is useless to know what the tab is…
Firefox has a tab search 😁
Sideberry is a particularly useful extension for this, especially if you have an ultra wide monitor
That’s why you use TreeStyleTabs
You underestimate the sheer volume in my hippocampus dedicated to tracking tabs.
… Kidding, mostly. Because generally tabs are grouped together in a way that makes sense so it’s easy to remember. These 10 tabs are me researching a new tool… A couple tags for articles I will surely get to… Then these 15 tabs are documentation for XYZ… Those 5 tabs are YouTube videos I want to watch… These are three Wikipedia searches that popped in my head and oh look a couple songs I want to listen to before adding them to my playlist.
If I want to find a tab and they are fully minimized then I click on the group with the relevant icon then I Ctrl+Tab through them until I find what I want. Perfectly reasonable.
I swear it makes sense and bookmarks are not an adequate replacement.
what do you mean?
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-tab/
or
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sidebery/
i even have a search bar to search between my own tabs.
Tree style tabs is cool, but sidebery is where it’s fucking at.
Vertical tabs, groups, automatically open certain sites in specific container tabs, pin tabs to the top or unload them.
Everything I could possibly want for tab organization, even down to a fully adjustable css file with a great UI for getting that shit pixel perfect.
Vertical tabs. I have a plugin on Firefox that lists tabs vertically and they’re also stacked so tabs opened in a tab get nested in that tab. I can’t remember the name, but I’ll update this comment with it when at my computer if anyone wants it.
To be fair, they were spread across 3 windows. 900 tabs on my general window, 400 on my work window, and 200 on my home server window
On purpose?!
I hate having any more tabs open than I absolutely need. Right now, I have none. I’m probably gonna either fire up a YouTube video or find someone to watch on Twitch here in a minute, at which point I’ll have one tab open. I’m not gonna say exactly how much RAM I have, but I have as much RAM as my motherboard will take, so I can definitely afford to open more than one tab. I just don’t see any reason to, frankly, and it drives me up the wall.
Why so secretive of your ram?
Okay, fine. I have 192 GB of RAM.
You could handle at least 5 chrome tabs with that.
Oh wowwww. Look at mr/mrs bigshot over here with 192 GB of ram.
The machine I had before this had 4 GB, lol. That’s why I put so much of the budget into RAM when I built this one.
I mean, you can never have too much ram.
But if you don’t use it in its entirety, it is kind of useless.
That’s the system’s job. It can cache stuff or whatever.
192GB is way to big to be used as a cache
However, you probably could run some of the huge language models
I closed 2000 tabs today. That leaves me with the extremely small number of 4000 tabs. Yeah I use Firefox sync. 😎
Can’t you just close all of them? Go though and close every one of those suckers.
No way I might need one of those in the next 9 months or so.
Demon. Voice. Aaaah
Sometimes I go back to the tabs and finish what I was doing on that page.
The amount of tabs I have open reflects the status of my mind
i’m offended
Yeah, I agree
I didn’t cone here to be personally attacked, jeez!
well seeing as i dont remember whats in them, yeah. One of them is probably something to do with CoW backups. I think.
Yesterday I closed around 10 tabs in one of the windows I have opened and am super proud. Been delaying it for probably a year or more already. My dream is to reach the point where I have just a window again with some tabs. I managed to close one of the windows with hundreds of tabs 1 or 2 months ago.
