Show HN: Disable now useless “What's new” page in Firefox Firefox 99 started serving a "What's New" page that is an ad for Pocket instead of listing what's new in the browser. Another disappointment. Here's how to disable the now useless "What's new page": 1. Go to about:config 2. Change the value of "browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone" to "ignore". Bingo! One less page with ads.

Show HN: Launch VM workloads securely and instantaneously, without VMs Hello HN! We've been working on a new hypervisor https://kwarantine.xyz that can run strongly isolated containers. This is still a WIP, but we wanted to give the community an idea about our approach, its benefits, and various use cases it unlocks. Today, VMs are used to host containers, and make up for the lack of strong security as well as kernel isolation in containers. This work adds this missing security piece in containers. We plan on launching a free private beta soon. Meanwhile, we'd deeply appreciate any feedback, and happy to answer any questions here or on our slack channel. Thanks! April 29, 2021 at 07:50AM
