Interesting bee fact -

In a hive that has been queenless for a period of time (long enough that there's no way they can raise a replacement queen), one or more workers may develop the ability to lay unfertilized eggs.

Due to how honeybee genetics work, those unfertilized eggs can hatch into drones (males), which may then have the opportunity to mate with queens from nearby colonies.

I guess this is sort of a last ditch effort to propagate the hive's genetic material before it fizzles out and dies. Which I think is fascinating.

I haven't tried this so I can't vouch for it, but it looks like you can add custom domains to a whitelist per https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1292986

So in your case, something like

browser.fixup.domainsuffixwhitelist.work = true

may work.

3.11 was WfW, and ran on top of DOS just like 3.1 did.

NT 3.51 used the NT kernel, and (mostly) looked like 3.1/3.11 on the surface. NT 4 used the NT kernel, and (mostly) looked like Win95.

Win 95/98/Me also ran on DOS, though it was more tightly integrated than it was in the 3.1 days.

Win 2k and everything after was based on NT.

I don't have an alternative program to suggest, but there are some workarounds for using redshift.

First, in the config file, you can set the location provider to manual, then specify a lat/lon and it will use that location in its time calculations. I do this on my laptop, and it works well except for when I cross multiple timezones - things are obviously off a bit.

Second, with the caveat that I haven't tried this, it looks like you can also manually set dawn/dusk times in the config, which sounds like what you're after.

See man 1 redshift for more info.
