Youtube stopped working for me today when using uBlock Origin in Firefox or Vivaldi with anti-ad enabled.
That sucks. Do you have access to a VPN with servers in Albania or Moldova? They still don't allow ads in youtube videos.
Happened to me last month, I set proton VPN to an Albanian server and everything worked until uBlock got updated to suppress the black screen of death again. Good luck!

No, that's UHF. You're thinking of the cassettes we used to record and watch movies on.

Good pull. Malapropism has always been one of my favorite words and comedic devices, so this is good info. Bravo!
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go read an article about the Women's Lubrication movement and eat my hot astronomy on rye.

Gaming laptop?
Schenker is German and has some ridiculously specc'd laptops. But be ready to pay through the nose.
Like, I'm talking 200Hz 16:10 4k+ screens with 5090s and up to 256 GB of RAM.

Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three.
I feel like this title should've been something about European vs. African Swallows, but I do cherish The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch scene.
I always loved the way he delivers the line "Five is Right Out!"
What a great scene. The rest of the verse says:
"Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."

Ublock origin + firefox is no longer working for blocking ads on youtube?
How long has it been since you updated uBlock? If I go about 2 weeks without restarting Firefox, they start showing up for me. A quick restart of FF and updating uBlock has always worked for me.
Let us know if it works or not.

S21 vs S22 vs S23
The upgrade in performance for all of these phones versus your Huawei are going to be absolutely monumental.
If you want to keep this phone for a few years, I'd suggest the S23. It's got 3 years of OS updates and 4 years of security patches and the others are likely to have battery issues in the next year or two(especially the S22, it has known battery drain problems already). Having the Snapdragon on the S23 will almost guarantee you'll be able to install custom ROMs beyond the end of Samsung official support, as well.

Please allow ads! JK, you need to subscribe, too! LOL
It says Continue without disabling on the bottom of that banner, which if you do, it gives you access to the whole site without hassling you again. At least it does on my end with Firefox.
Obviously it's bullshit to constantly badger you, but it doesn't currently restrict access to anything.

Alternative OS for Lenovo Tablet
Depending on the tablet, you might not be able to unlock the bootloader. I have a Chinese Lenovo model Y770 that's not unlockable.
You can always remove your google account from the tablet and install Aurora Store and f-droid to keep google from tracking what you're using. Every step in the right direction is a step away from google.
Using Open Street Maps, Mull, Brave, librewolf, various proton apps or whatever you prefer will let you get away from the built in google stuff.

[QUESTION] Does non-alcoholic wine work as well as regular wine as an ingredient and pan deglazer?
I say don't use NA wine, as it's usually pretty low quality and might negatively affect the flavor. Use a good vinegar and water. My sister who is sober does a 3:1 water to vinegar ratio.
So if the recipe calls for a cup of red wine to de-glaze, use 1/4 cup red wine vinegar mixed with 3/4 cup water(or stock for even more flavor). I've tried several of these recipes and it's basically imperceptible.

Does anyone have ideas for cable management here?
Swap the red LEDs for blue, should tie the whole room together.
The wall plate is a great idea if you don't mind cutting holes in the wall.
Honestly, I'd grab a couple of acoustic tiles to put on either side of the TV and chuck all that shit behind them. Maybe cinch up and ziptie anything I know doesn't need to move for a while.

Yes yes!
There's no such thing as man sized rats.
(That being said, I do appreciate how on the nose a lot of WH stuff is; such as the leader of the ninja assassin Clan Eshin being called Sneek lol)
