Mostly computer thought's and stuff I've done!
These last 3 posts are all related. So both Brave and Vivaldi seem to block YouTube ads out-of-the-box. Then yesterday, I learned about Thorium based on Chromium and it too seemed to block YouTube ads out-of-the-box. However Mercury based on Firefox doesn’t block YouTube ads. I wonder if Pi-Hole blocks them?
Thorium is very interesting.
YouTube warned me in Firefox with ad blocker extension. It appears that Brave and Vivaldi blocks them. Of course Chrome doesn’t.
I just found out the quote “To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize. ” is wrongly attributed to Voltaire. It’s actually from a white nationalist and neo-Nazi. But without looking at my code it may be better to replace Id # 224 with another quote than delete it.
Removed old screenshots of my Linux desktop from my About page.
I really need to look into these old sporadic errors. They don’t show in normal use. Only in future browser use where the tab is still open…sometimes! Probably an easy fix. But I’m lazy : )

Spotted my Ethernet connected Internet randomly disconnecting/reconnecting.
Mentioned it, back in 2020 here. However Ctrl+/-…don’t work as it evidently did then.

Just learned something new. AAAA batteries are a thing. And if you tear apart a 9V battery, 6 AAAA batteries are inside.
For some reason the author recommended running TK5 from your home directory. But that’s not where I keep my other retro OSs. So I moved it with the others. Much longer path (no spaces though) but, so far…so good.
