Voyager 1 is expected to shut down around 2025 because its power source, the Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators (RTGs), is running out of juice. These RTGs have been gradually losing power since the spacecraft was launched in 1977. As the power drops, Voyager will have to turn off its scientific instruments and other systems, eventually going silent after an amazing run.

I don't see any mention of Firefox extension "Open external links in a container"

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-url-in-c...

This extension gives the ability to create bookmarks that open in a specific container automatically.

When dealing with AWS accounts that are configured to use SSO. I’ll have to use IdP to login into awsapps.com. Then I have to choose AWS account and then click a Role that I would like to use for session. This is troublesome and breaks my flow. I wanted a way to quickly jump into a specific account without thinking too much.

For each AWS account that I need to use, I’ve copied a link from awsapps.com pointing at specific permissions set. When opening this link I will be taken to a specific AWS account, and if the session is expired it will prompt for IdP login and proceed to AWS account. Next, I’ve created a bookmark and crafted a url that uses the mentioned extension. It will open link in to a “staging” account in Firefox container company-staging.
