Bottas is awesome. It's odd that for years he always seemed very straight laced. We saw glimpses of his inner beast when he started getting naked with Lewis. He then went full beast when he unveiled the mullet.

I really like it, much prefer this layout over the default one.

One question though, how do I respond/reply to the original post? I've had to go back to the old UI as I don't see a Reply button or comment box. I can see a Reply link on other people's comments, but not on to reply to the main thread.

Edit

I assume this is correct as this is just a preview? Also I bookmarked but there's no favicon.ico

I don't disagree but it's still a shame to see a well established channel needing to go to such lows.

MKBHD's video titles are so click baity now

Aren't all these browsers still also running Safari in the background?

I purchased a new domain just for creating aliases with SimpleLogin. I have over 300 email aliases now. If any start spamming I simply delete the alias. Also if I get unrelated emails I know exactly which website leaked or sold my email address.

I read the title before looking at the guy and he looks exactly like the sort of person who would write that title

I'm not answering the question directly, but I'm a large family and having the TV with no streaming services just won't fly with my family members. I pay for NextDNS, which includes this filter, but if you run a PiHole or AdGuard this is a good filter for Smart TV's...

Proton owns SimpleLogin

I use Bitwarden with SimpleLogin.

I'm from the UK and you sound like an average person talking on Twitch.

Watching an image load line by line or watching an image change from a blurred pixel art to higher res as more pixels loaded...

Videos? Not a thing. Realplayer was simply awful bloatware even if it was revolutionary for its time.

I remember when IE 4 switched to the e icon. I thought it was so much cooler looking with the blue gradients.

That is an important fix. I'm surprised this wasn't found before 6 even released.

It's similar to an issue I have on Plasma 5 where if I am playing a game with a game pad, the screen would go off due to inactivity. It's a known old bug. I wish they would fix it.

Oh here it is. Only 11 years old...

As.someone who only used a couple of tabs open and even then upon restart of Firefox only has one tab open, this seems like a feature I wouldn't really use?

Yeah. As much as I praise Sony for this endeavour, I doubt it's the same now.

I'm sure it will come. The first time I drank from one of these I was confused and thought my cap had a manufacturing defect so pulled it off. It was only afterwards that I saw on the packaging what it was.

Sony did something similar for me for my PS3. It was out of warranty and the drive stopped reading Blu-ray discs. CDs worked fine. I couldn't find the receipt to see how old it was but contacted them anyway. They said can I find an old bank statement or something to see if it is still in warranty. The only thing I found was it showed up in the loyalty points of the game shop I got it from. They accepted this as enough proof however the unit was out of the standard warranty. They said they will still accept it. They sent out a postal guy with a thick plastic box with foam insulation with a replacement PS3 in it. He took away my broken PS3. Great! All free of charge. I was well happy. Then a week later a letter arrived and contained the SD card that I accidentally left in my old PS3.

Sony went the extra mile here. Very happy with the outcome.

I feel the same way about my Leatherman Wave multi tool. I had a cheap one that I got for like £4 and it just sat in my toolbox. My house got broken into and they stole all my tools. The insurance company replaced the multi tool with the Wave. I just shoved it in the toolbox, which lives in the garage as I never really used it.
One day, I saw the Wave online and noticed it costs a lot of money (£100+). I brought it inside the house and ended up leaving it by my desk. I found myself reaching for it to do all manner of household jobs. It's a great gadget to quickly fix odd jobs or cut boxes up from the numerous online purchases. Really handy to leave around the house.

I'm sure you can get by with cheaper variants but the Leatherman tools are solid and built to last. They also come with a 25 year warranty. Definitely a purchase I'd make again if I ever needed to.

It's a shame the real excitement in F1 these days happens off the track.
