Youtube has better anti-adblock now. Other than Invidious, any way around it? Purging and re-dowloading the ublock stuff didn't work
Firefox + uBlock Origin. if you keep seeing the anti-adblock message there are certain filters you must input. I'm sure you can find it somewhere on the Internet. If it comes back then you simply refresh your filters.

OnePlus Open hype building campaign officially starts with a first look video
As someone who worked in an electronics repair shop let me just say this: beware of folding phones. I will be the first to admit that the screen really does look great and I love the large landscape... when it's working. There are so many issues that come up with folding technology. I've had to repair so many Z Folds and Z Flips. The OEM screen protector constantly lifts and bubbles at the hinge. A lot of times there's pixel bleeding along the hinge. The repairability is a nightmare. Think about taking out components of a normal phone. Now double it and imagine having to carefully remove an outside LCD that is incredibly sensitive and breaks at the slightest touch. Replacing a drained battery or any small component like a sub-pba, mic, camera, orr anything else is a nightmare.

The Technology the Trump Administration Could Use to Hack Your Phone
Stop making every fucking community political. These headlines are fucking retarded. It's already been happening it doesn't matter what fucking administration is in power. We've been spied on since the Patriot act

What niche phone features would appeal to you?
Whenever I buy a phone there's two function I look for that is getting phased out: LED indicator and a 3.5mm audio jack. It's why I have a Sony Xperia. The thing is there's no user configuration for the LED indicator. You either need to pay for a third party app or unlock the bootloader and install a custom firmware. I would love if a flagship phone had an LED Indicstor that was customizable. i.e. Blue for a text, Red for an email, Green for battery at 80%+, etc.

I've been using Arch for years and not once has an update "broke" my system. If it does break someone's system it's likely because they messed with their libs without knowing what they were doing

49ers win vs packers!!!
This game was so close. I really thought the 7th seed Packers were about to knock off the number 2 AND number 1 seed. That would've been insane. If only they didn't miss the field goal.

Uber just pulled the biggest piece of shit move. Has any one else encountered this?
This exact thing used to happen to me with Lyft. I would be out late until around 2am at my friends house some nights drinking. When I would open the Lyft app and look for a ride back home they would be at around $90!!!! I would wait for about 20 minutes and the price would drop to about 35-40$. It was outrageous and made no sense. Eventually I stuck with just grabbing a cab each time instead for around 45$

They run the site for free and there's basically no adds. You expect them to afford capabilities for 100s of people doing 30-40 rom downloads at once?

Bill Belichick leaving Patriots after 24 seasons, sources say
Honestly I don't want him to go. I might be in the minority of pats fans but the latter half of this season has shown that he can still coach a great defense. I would've been much happier if they brought in a GM and Bill had less to say on the offensive side of drafting. Who are we going to get that's better than BB?? Only person I'd be ok with is Vrabel. But I'm not sure if Vrabel can get to the AFC championship game again. Maybe I'm expecting too much right after the end of the greatest dynasty in NFL history...

Being flashbanged by my fingerprint sensor
This could be a possible issue with your screen but it's most likely an issue with the Finger Print Sensor (FPS) Software. With Pixel 6 and up the FPS software works in conjunction with the LCD (Since it's on the screen). You should take it to an authorized Google repair center (for example a uBreakifix) and the issue will likely still be covered under the manufacturer's warranty(free of charge). There's a specific program that Google gives these repair centers to reinstall the FPS software on it each time they do an LCD swap. I'm sure that they would be willing to reinstall the software on your Pixel without going through the process of switching the LCD to see if it fixes your issue. Shouldn't take more than 20 mins but it could be longer if they're backed up on same-day repairs. Source: I had to do this a many times for the Pixel 6. And I vaguely remember a customer with a similar issue on the 6 pro.
P.S. Before doing this you could try a factory reset on your phone to see if it fixes the issue. Or start Android in safe mode to rule out any 3rd party software that could be causing the issue. (Though I doubt it, I have a feeling the issue will persist).

The odds of each of them being injured throughout the year is high but the odds of all three being injured all at once is pretty low. It's like an injury roulette game.
