Are those specific names of extensions? I do use UBlock Origin already (because random ads drive me nuts). What does subscription grid do? Currently I find that the subscription tab is lacking because if a channel puts out lots of videos those crowd out those of the once-a-week channels...

Great game, agreed--I bought it on launch for a big discount at $36 because WB didn't think it would sell, apparently. Played through it twice at least. I always thought it was underrated. It was a bit weird in that they originally meant it so Max had an American accent (and the implication was...

Modern cars have these key fobs that let you do a bunch of cool things (and probably even let you "slice, dice, even make Julienne Fries!") but one thing that drives me crazy is that occasionally they seem to make your trunk fly open for no explicable reason while it's parked in your driveway...

Re: YouTube, why on Earth did they suddenly decide to make their video tiles about twice as big as before in a desktop browser? Anyone else seeing this (I’m using Windows Firefox)? Today I’m only seeing three rows of four and the lower quarter of the bottom row is off the screen, on a 1440p...

You know, I played the demo of it way back near launch and enjoyed it quite a bit. Sometime later during a Winter Steam Sale I bought this crazy bundle of maybe 10 games published by the same company (mainly for Batman Arkham Asylum) and was happy K&L 2 was in there, but in all this time I...

Because some fucking idiot consultant told them to stop. It was working, and for good reason. You're telling me that the whole "mutual chastity policing" thing between Mike Johnson and his son isn't weird?

I guess there are some parts of the country where they say it that way (in the Northeast I think). Just like people in NYC never stand "in line" like everyone else but rather "on line."

Yeah yeah, point taken, but this is about molding some plastic so it has two bleeping screw holes of a certain size a standard distance apart from one another. It's really not "rocket surgery" as they say.

That kind of crap drives me crazy. How hard could it be to come up with a universal mounting standard for something as important as smoke detectors? It's stupid.

You would not believe how insanely prudish some people are. Look at how so many people lost their sh_t when Janet Jackson had her silly "wardrobe malfunction." You'd think they'd put a minutes-long live sex show on the stage.

Must be nice having time for a relationship in the first place, though (oh, and not having apparently acquired the superpower of invisibility to even remotely attractive women, heh). I've been taking care of my mentally declining nearly 88 year old mom since September of 2020, because EVERYTHING...

I didn't see a "report" link or button. Re: the second thing, I never had the experience that you did (thank goodness) but in any case long ago decided I wanted to log into my home machine with a local account.

Hmm, I wonder if I should switch to that when my LastPass sub ends next year--even the premium personal plan is quite a bit cheaper than LastPass. Hope it's easy to switch.

Would LastPass do? I've been using that for a few years. I guess I have to figure out how to implement that function. In any case I did change my password to something longer and more secure. BTW I just realized how you came up with your handle there. 😎

So I would need some sort of authenticator app to use TOTP. You mentioned a couple there.

Pardon my ignorance but is that distinct from the one-time codes sent to my emails? I wonder if maybe these botnets figure someone will have SMS as an option, which is apparently easier to intercept, I gather.

I just checked login attempts and it's bananas, like a constant stream of them over days and days. But only today am I getting the emails (at least recently). I did set up TFA (or at least "Two-step Verification" as MS calls it, and got a new recovery code, which I wrote down. If I have two...

Because we actually need to accelerate climate change apparently. 🤦‍♂️

Today particularly?

Since this morning around 7:30 AM PDT I've gotten four emails to my Gmail account containing codes that would presumably let me into my Microsoft account. What to do in a situation like this? Anything? I can tell no one has changed my Microsoft account password because I can still get into...
