Firefox@Lemmy.world: Has anyone else never had an single issue with YouTube on Firefox with adblockers?
  • Yeah, I assumed it's Google's fault, one way or another, regardless of browser being used. And even though I don't recall it happening in desktop chrome, minor nuisance like that isn't gonna make me switch.

    Tubular on android also has option for forced highest resolution so that's a nice bypass for any of google's bs as I rarely bother opening videos in FF/FFfocus on phone

  • Firefox@Lemmy.world: Has anyone else never had an single issue with YouTube on Firefox with adblockers?
  • Videos take time to load - don't care though, even if it's about length of 5-7sec ad, but at least I don't see it.
    Videos almost never auto play to highest resolution, I have to manually select it, no issues once I do that though.

    Those are about the two key things I've noticed. I returned to Firefox few.months back, but the above wasn't an issue when I made the initial switch.

    And no, there is no issue with my connection, everything else (streaming, games, torrents) works fine as it always did.

    I use uBlock and NoScript

  • Mexico's new president!
  • Probably the same reason the whole party is still around. It would be awesome to get a real input from someone who lives in Mexico (preferably a normal person and not a summer beach home/mansion owner who pretends to live like normal people do), but honestly don't know how likely they are to lurk here on Lemmy....surely there is at least one among us?

    My skepticism stems mostly from the "popularity" of former president, supposedly reaching some 80%? Sounds pretty good if it's genuinely true, but it's eerily approaching fabled 90-100% authoritarian levels.

  • First attempt making a loaf! 🍞
  • When it comes to bread recipes I wouldn't worry too much about being precise at first, you kind of figure out what works best for you, with your tools and your oven, so take them as a general guidance.

    If you like sourdough/rye bread, give them a try once you're comfortable. Getting your own starter started can take a bit of time (lost of good info out there about it), but once you get your first decent looking loaf done you'll feel like the king and queen of the world (I know I did). That being said, you can go really nuts with the details with this, if you ever want to achieve your perfect loaf whatever it may be.

  • Anon figures out how dieting works
  • Don't bother with apps, many website even certain official healthcare sites will have info about food calories, even some calculators and the intake for your age/weight/gender/etc. It seems that if you're biologically female you're kinda screwed though, my partner had much harder time getting 1/10th of result I was getting.

    When it comes to counting food calories, you don't necessarily need exact numbers for raw ingredients and that info is out there, for anything else check out packaging and add it all up per day.

  • Microsoft is not buying Valve and Counter-Strike for £12 billion
  • As lucrative as Valve and Steam may seem to buy, even for 10x that amount, any analyst who is realistic about suggesting the purchase to another company would know that it isn't worth it. Not that it's a bad buy, but whoever can afford to buy it likely could not help themselves but fuck it up and run the whole operation to the ground.

  • They’re fast. Pedestrians are furious: ‘fat’ ebikes divide Australian beach suburbs
  • Oh I got your point, which exactly leads to the fact that it would just become another enterprise to capitalise on, instead of banning anything, using shitty behaviour as an excuse to do so.

    Edit; i.e. if you wanna ride a bike, well us politicians have decided that you need to do xyz first, but don't worry, my buddy offers x, my 2nd cousin does y and my wife actually has offers on z ATM. Don't look at us, it's because Billy over there didn't have his helmet on last year cu he's an asshole.

  • Cars are often the reason I hate cars, but not always

    Idiot couldn't handle his new toy in the rainy Metro Vancouver [OC]

    Managed to hit the concrete barriers on both sides of a 3 lane highway. Luckily didn't hit anyone but traffic was about 3km long an hour later and caused another accident within the traffic jam itself.

    Edit:grammar, and obligatory - I took the frame from my partner's video who captured it for me, as I was busy avoiding the debris scattered all over the highway trying not to get a puncture. I don't touch my phone while I drive, and hope you don't either.
