Close Thunderbird and open the prefs.js file in Notepad or another editor (make a backup copy of prefs.js first, as […]

I avoid following conversations in Twitter. The reason is simple: Doing so is hard and RTs lead to reading the same staff over and over. Plus, I can’t always actually read everything, as not everyone uses “reply” and I am rarely […]
