Snaps. Why? Please Stop
Oh don't get me started on that. I use Firefox on a work machine and I spent a number of hours troubleshooting why it couldn't access the Internet when I was connected on VPN.
I suspected it had something to do with snapd, so I downloaded the .tar.gz release of Firefox and it worked. I kept investigating and figured it must have something to do with snap.firefox.firefox apparmor profile because the VPN client was symlinking the /etc/resolv.conf to /opt/.../resolv.conf
However, updating the apparmor profile didn't help so I ultimately realized that snap has a hardcoded list of mounts that it mounts into the app container [1] and there's no way to change this.
There are a number of reasons to hate on snapd, but this almost made me flip the table.

DEAR UBUNTU…
Of course, nothing's stopping anyone from contributing more complete selinux support. Looks like they take external pull requests in a pretty straightforward manner.

Why I like using Snaps
the system is actually open https://github.com/snapcore/snapd, its just the url they use is their own
- I am installing Ubuntu
- Firefox Cannot Open Zoom Links
-
Annoying message keep appearing can't fix by apt update and apt upgrade.
That's not true. The git is here.

How is this "for humans" in any reasonable universe? The firefox Snap mess should have a better solution.
thanks for that. Following your link I arrived at https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/12495 which covers the code. 22 commits, 19 files touched, this was a big job which indicates a little bit of a design miss, it will be very good to have this. It's the last remaining piece of "firefox snap sucks" I think.

Generating and Working With ScriptPubKeys in Bitcoin Transactions
As mentioned previously, ScriptPubKeys are scripts that embody the locking conditions of bitcoins in a Bitcoin transaction. They are a crucial element of a Bitcoin transaction that specifies the requirements that must be met before an unspent transaction output (UTXO) is used. The ScriptPubKey, combined with the Amount, creates an output of a Bitcoin transaction. Like every other script, ScriptPubKeys are made up of operators and data. During the encoding of a transaction, both data and the operands are represented in hexadecimal format. You can find the hex representation for all operands used in Bitcoin Scripts here.
