I noticed this new behaviour today -- I logged in, posted a Meditation, then used the same tab to go somewhere else. Half an hour later, I decided to come back to the site .. and I had to log in again.

So, just now, I visited the site, logged in, then opened a new tab (in the same browser window), and once again I was prompted to log in again. That's odd -- has anyone else noticed this behaviour? I'm using Firefox 136.0 (64-bit) on Ubuntu.

For a long time, I had a link in my .sig going to Groklaw. I heard that as of December 2024, this link is dead. Still, thanks to PJ for all your work, we owe you so much. RIP Groklaw -- 2003 to 2013.
