I read interesting remarks by Texas Senator Ted Cruz on antisemitism at the 45th Annual Night to Honor Israel, courtesy of a Volokh Conspiracy post by Josh Blackman. After noting the rise of antisemitism on the left beginning “about a decade ago,” Senator Cruz addressed the rise of antisemitism in some prominent...
I saw a very unusual number of views in my Statify stats. The source was… Hacker News? While I have had a few dramatic Hacker News successes on my main site, The New Leaf Journal, I was not expecting one here. The culprit is yesterday’s Firefox “Privacy-Focused Direct Results” PSA, which I published as an aside...
I covered how to disable Firefox’s new AI “features” in my previous post. While browsing my feeds, I came across a new AlternativeTo post on another enabled-by-default addition to Firefox titled Firefox tests privacy-focused direct results in the address bar with possible sponsorships. This new “feature” was already...
I came across a guide on Flamed Fury to disabling new AI “features” in Firefox. I run Firefox with Arkenfox and a separate overrides file. I had not noticed any AI features with my set-up, but Flamed Fury inspired me to check my settings. It turned out the main AI toggle, browser.ml.enable, was enabled, as […]
I read a Hacker News thread about a new Android browser called Helium Browser. Helium is an open-source browser project based on GrapheneOS’s Vanadium, which in turn is based on Chromium, adding extension support to Vanadium while losing Vanadium’s tight integration with GrapheneOS. It is a good post and...

If you had asked them whether someone could bring teaser trailers for The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten season two, Allen Iverson’s shooting sleeve, and George Costanza’s insights on hair together under the umbrella of one article, they would have told you know. They told me know. But I didn’t listen to them....
I have never used NordVPN and have no plans to (happy with Mullvad VPN), but I must credit on two points NordVPN for a recent October 14, 2025 news release titled NordVPN for Linux goes open-source, with the GUI also available via Snap. The first and most obvious point is that it is need NordVPN is […]
I am playing Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore (TMS) for Switch along with a friend (not in person). He beat the prologue ahead of me. Thanks to work and a certain article project, I took a while to get around to finishing the prologue. But I did so last night (or this “morning”). I decided that […]
I ran some different Google Search queries to look for backlinks to The New Leaf Journal. I found a few. For example, New Novel ‘Under the Neon Sun’ inspired by real conflict between Yakuza and Chinese Gangs published by K. Kjelsberg on Market Press Release. This is a November 18, 2024 press release for a book by a […]
