Title: Webpage in Firefox crashes computer Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I could not reproduce this today, but the web page at https://celebratingsweets.com/big-chewy-ginger-molasses-cookies/ crashed my computer. This website has every advertisement, popup, and video known to man on it. I had a monitor connected to my laptop by an HDMI cable, and I had the Firefox browser (I have the latest version 104.0.2, 64-bit) open in the laptop screen to this web page. This was the only window I had open (the only other [user] program running was wallch, which rotates the desktop background image), when the screen went blank after a period of inactivity, and the screen wouldn't redraw when I moved my finger on the laptop touchpad or pressed the space bar to wake it up. It just stayed black, ctl-alt-del was not recognized, nor were any keys, and the only thing I could figure out to get it back was to press the power button until the computer shut off. Then reboot. This happened twice. The touchpad was hot, like something was overheating inside the laptop. This laptop was built by System76 and is some sort of generic Lenovo under the hood. No web site has ever crashed my computer before. I have Ubuntu, upgraded from version 20 to 22.04.1 LTS three weeks ago, and upgraded from DSL to fiber Internet two weeks ago. Maybe one of these is causing the problem. I'll try to also report it to the other components' producers.
