  • Huh, this stirs some memories about a cabbage, carrots and potato ‘gruel’/stew our mother used to make when I was a kid in the early 90’s. Our country was in bad economic depression at the time, and our family was having it hard. I remember hating it as a kid.

    I think I’m gonna improvise a pot of something similar in the weekend, maybe I’ll appreciate it more nowdays.

    Thank you for sharing.




  • Its working for me now, I tested it this morning. Even tried swithching the user agent back to Firefox and yep - Youtube gets magically some buffering problems with it.

    Close youtube tab, switch user agent back to chrome, clear cache and restart the browser: no buffering problems. What a bunch of assholes.

    I’ve reported this earlier to EU competition ombudsman, like a about a year ago, and they confirmed then that they were getting reports about the issue, Google of course denying the practice. Hopefully they are working on some punishment for Google in the background.









  • I dont mean to hate on Mullvad, but its got its problems too - mainly because it seems to be too unknown even to admins maintaining different services, bringing problems to its everyday use.

    I tried to start using Mullvad as my daily driver, but had to go back to FF because so many of our university’s and its affliated services wouldnt work with it at all or would make it a pain to do simple tasks with all the shit web ui -services, portals and their logins that is the modern academia/work environment.

    Well, at least I educated about 4 service admins about the existence of Mullvad before going grudgingly back to FF, or rather with these past years controversies, SusFox.
