You open up different running instances of Firefox, each with a different profile. Switching is simply clicking on the Firefox window for that profile

I just double checked and you are correct. The containers do maintain different youtube accounts so I was wrong in my recollection.

I now remember I chose profiles so I could keep two completely different Firefox color themes so I know which 'state' I am in (work/play) instantly. Having said that - I think I need to give containers another look since they are less overhead.

I found container tabs to be useless for my use case:

I want to have two YouTube accounts running simultaneously - one for entertainment and another for coding/AI/science. That way the YT recommendations in both accounts diverge to the different use cases. Using two Firefox profiles was the only way to do this.

I would be very disappointment to see Firefox profiles deprecated.

Minor nitpick - the poll options should say 'yes I use profiles' not 'yes I do'. Same with the no option. Be clear to avoid confusion.

It's an unfortunate mix up - curry leaves and curry powder/paste are different things.

Curry leaves are just the aromatic leaves of a bush like plant used primarily in south Indian cooking much like basil in Italian or makrut lime leaves in Thai cuisine.

Curry pastes and powders are mixtures of spices: turmeric, cumin, coriander, fennel, mustard seeds, asafoetida, black pepper, cloves etc. Every region and family has their own blend of spices.

You should be able to find the fresh leaves in small bags at Indian grocery stores in the U.S. In California, you can also purchase plants (they grow very slowly the first 3-4 years) in pots and survive mild CA winters.

Hanford is also the nations largest superfund cleanup site. https://spectrum.ieee.org/hanford-nuclear-site

"At the Hanford Site in south-central Washington state, 177 giant tanks sit below the sandy soil, brimming with the radioactive remnants of 44 years of nuclear-materials production. From World War II through the Cold War, Hanford churned out plutonium for more than 60,000 nuclear weapons. The sprawling enterprise eventually contaminated the soil and groundwater and left behind 212 million liters of toxic waste—enough to fill 85 Olympic-size swimming pools. Decades after the site stopped producing plutonium, the U.S. government is still grappling with how to clean it all up. "

The story of what we know so far about the development process is fascinating and captured in this book "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" by Sean B. Carroll (2005)

"Drivers can activate Mercedes’s technology, called Drive Pilot, when certain conditions are met, including in heavy traffic jams, during the daytime, on specific California and Nevada freeways, and when the car is traveling less than 40 mph. Drivers can focus on other activities until the vehicle alerts them to resume control. The technology does not work on roads that haven’t been pre-approved by Mercedes, including on freeways in other states. "
