feodor2 Posted February 21 Posted February 21 (edited) security.sandbox.content.level is not a sandbox actually. Also I can say for 115 firefox also not really do sandbox with this. Yes do not get to the delusion with this setting, If you want true sandbox use proper software. Edited February 21 by feodor2

I already wrote about this general.config.sandbox_enabled preference in terms of the Nuchi-Sporif script loading method and other ones: On 6/8/2022 at 1:26 AM, AstroSkipper said: The preference general.config.sandbox_enabled can be left at Mypal's default for this method. Only for other script loading methods, it has to be set to the Boolean value of false in about:config, which means, it then should be enabled in the config-prefs.js file (since I have commented it out for the use of the Nuchi-Sporif script loading method at the moment) and automatically set by this file after starting the browser.

D.Draker Posted February 21 Posted February 21 12 hours ago, feodor2 said: What is it about the sandbox thing at all? https://www.ncesc.com/gaming-pedia/what-is-the-no-sandbox-command-in-chrome/ "The sandbox is a security feature that isolates web pages and applications, preventing them from affecting other parts of the system. Disabling the sandbox is sometimes necessary for development purposes, such as redirecting stdout to disk when the sandbox would otherwise prevent writing data to the disk. However, it is not recommended to disable the sandbox when surfing the web, as it can leave your system more vulnerable to security threats." 3
feodor2 Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Supposed we all know what the sandbox is, I mean the particular setting in the particular browser - it is not truly a sandbox, no matter disable it or enable, and about nvidia what?

Today, I created a subroutine to catch errors ,for example a TypeError, caused by the document.getElementById() or document.querySelector() commands when a page is loading too slowly. I use these error messages to check as long as a successful access to an element is granted and then to immediately execute the desired commands. This avoids unnecessary, static setTimeout commands and error messages in the Browser Console.. Works like a charm. And I'm not in the mood to use observers everywhere.

And what about the other 99.999999% of users that have at least a dual Pentium? 1

Firefox has a sandbox even for the outdated, initially unsafe and poorly implemented garbage like Flash. Flash was supported with XP for like quarter of a century, what Windows 10 are you talking about? "Firefox has a sandbox for some plugins like Flash, and it has a sandbox for media decoding plugins and DRM plugins. These are all enabled by default." It's from a decade old article. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1111998 1
D.Draker Posted February 23 Posted February 23 And the dude here wrote you globally disabled the sandbox. Why? https://sourceforge.net/projects/r3dfox/files/v133.0.4e/ 1
feodor2 Posted February 23 Posted February 23 (edited) You keep gnawing this why, what do you want actually? Flash has gone, DRM is not possible. And yes firefox 68 has many win10 specifics, while that mostly was removed from mypal. 3 hours ago, D.Draker said: And the dude here wrote you globally disabled the sandbox. Why?

I'm trying to broaden my future browser path. One example, CatsXP supported XP up to Chrome 87 (or so), Chrome 87 is far more advanced than FF 68, yet CatsXP had a fully working sandbox under XP, how so? And CatsXP still has a working sandbox under Vista. 2
