How are you decoding the H.264 MVC video?

It sounds exactly like that. Perhaps you ran firefox as root at some point?

I'd say:

  • delete the cache:
rm -rf .cache/mozilla
  • set yourself as the owner of everything under ~/.mozilla:
chown -Rc $(id -u):$(id -g) ~/.mozilla
  • make sure you can write to everything under /.mozilla:
chmod -Rc u+w ~/.mozilla

If you get permissions errors, run them with sudo.

Another idea is to press F12 to open the dev tools, go to the network tab, and refresh the page. If something is not loading it will be highlighted in red and it will tell you the reason.

It might be some addon messing things up, you can launch firefox with no addons with firefox --safe-mode.

Does it happen in a "private" window?

Last time I checked, you could only unlock Huawei phones through exploits. And while you can re-lock Xiaomi phones, they will always show the screen telling you the system is corrupted on boot. They were having supply chain problems with resellers flashing malware to their phones.

I'm more partial to Xiaomi.

Sure it's commendable that Huawei is a sanctioned Chinese cooperative with custom made CPUs pushing the boundary on 5G, but Xiaomi phones have very good specs for the price, big batteries, they are well constructed, easy to repair, the bootloader is unlockable, and they usually have snapdragon CPUs that work great with custom roms.

You can take Mickey from Steamboat Willie, make him wink, give him tie-dye shorts and pink skin, and use him as the logo Mickey Dishwasher Soap—you can't use him as is for a trademark because it's too generic.

You can't use his ears for an animation studio or a TV channel because it's easy to confuse with Disney's trademarks.

Trademarks are limited by category (which is why Apple Computer got into a lawsuit with Apple Records only after Apple Computer launched iTunes, before it was perfectly fair) and enforced on similarity. Also a trademark has to be distinct but doesn't have to be original, you can use a bitten apple as a trademark but you can't copyright that shape.

Edit: another difference between trademarks and copyright is that you never lose the copyright, but you must keep enforcing a trademark. If you let your brand become the generic term for a product, if you let others use your mark without suing them, then you lose the rights over the name.

You're thinking of the public domain as if Walt Disney had given us a licence to use a particular depiction of Mickey Mouse.

It's not the case. It's hard to imagine after 100 years, but the character is now as free as Jesus, or Winnie the Pooh, or the three piglets. You can incorporate mickey into your story however you want, depict him however you like.

Duckduckgo shows you the full res image from the search results and the main link is to the image itself.

Yandex for reverse search, it works like you remember Google used to work.

Michael Hudson made a career out of telling think tanks to read Marx.
