You mean "recent bookmarks"? Huh, never noticed that was there. I think it's probably locally stored and not really a thing websites can just access.
After reading the parent comment, I [think I] finally understand what you're on about.
There's no reason to suspect the "recently bookmarked" list would be tracked; that's just downright paranoid.
Here's how to disable it.
"Boolean" is true/false.
Nah, it's exactly the same thing. 3D software is just applying a Boolean function to two sets of points at the same time, instead of one scaler piece of data like reading a setting.
In other words, Firefox is doing f(a), where f is a unary Boolean function (identity or negation) and a is a single true/false value, while your 3D software is doing f(A, B), where f is a binary Boolean function (union a.k.a. AND, intersection a.k.a. OR, etc.) and A and B are vectors of true/false values representing whether particular points of space are contained within object A or B respectively.
(Some 3D software might be more sophisticated than that, using mathematical expressions of the object boundaries to get exact answers instead of interpolating between points, but I'm just trying to convey the basic concept here.)
That's fair; it's literally a math/computer science/computer engineering topic.
Personally, I'm of the opinion that more of that sort of thing ought to be taught to everybody in K-12 (because you aren't really computer literate unless you can automate workflows, if not by "programming" then at least by scripting), but that's a rant for a different thread.
Anyway, I'm sorry about Firefox not behaving the way you want it to, and hope that it improves for you in the future.
Try changing the capitalization or using "0" instead of false or something. Otherwise, I give up and you should ask for help in a Mozilla forum or chatroom.
