  • pybombs

    PyBOMBS (Python Build Overlay Managed Bundle System) is the GNU Radio install management system for resolving dependencies and pulling in out-of-tree projects.

  • Real case: the default installer for GNUradio is called "pybombs". Last time I search for it, google tried to auto-correct to one of those bad terms:

  • user.js

    Firefox privacy, security and anti-tracking: a comprehensive user.js template for configuration and hardening

  • https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js There are hundreds of settings that can be configured to harden Firefox. A lot were upstreamed from the Tor Browser via the Tor Uplift project. The afforementioned user.js is well documented and the most well maintained that I'm aware of.

    This is one of the leading reasons why I think Firefox is a better browser than competitors because they don't allow this level of customization without hacking on the source code, like say Brave does. However not even Brave or Ungoogled Chromium is hardened as much as Firefox is with this user.js.
