Maybe GNOME and Mozilla will consider a separate download/package where it is enabled by default, like gnome-desktop-middle-click-to-paste-enabled :D

If it’s gotten to the place where it needs to do an emergency shutdown, either it’s operating outside of specs or the hardware is bad (design or faulty).

Just to add on to your comment: Hardware should not “shut down” due to software operations. Max fan speed and execution slow down, yes, but not a shut down, unless your computer has a function of shutting down when getting hot. Normal operation should just keep going.

That was early windows xp era though

I know AMD had some issues a long time ago with thermal protection. Tom’s Hardware made a video on YouTube where they tested what happens when removing the CPU cooler on a system running Quake 3. As I remember it, all the Intel CPUs survived but most, if not all, the AMD CPUs died, one also damaging the motherboard.
