Okay, so this wasn't just me! I installed NoScript for Chrome on my work laptop as a stop gap for no more ublock origin and thought something was fishy w/ Google's search page.

Had to scroll way too far for this.

Isn't mortgage interest deductible only if you itemize your deductions?

Suppose those of us who've missed the bus want to get a copy of the content from before the 20th, is that still available? In other words, do they offer downloads of older versions of the content?

You find the nopic version is still usable? I haven't used the offline content, but I feel like no images would leave me wanting more. Then again, for what it is, it's still pretty awesome, and I understand that storage space is a consideration.

And your outgoing emails aren't getting caught in Google's spam filters & what not?

my own domain and a good email service

Sorry for being dense, but how does this work exactly? Do you register your own domain as something like mangopenguin.com and then how do you get email to go through that?

self host whatever I can

Do you have hardware in your home or do you have some virtual private server or whatever they're called?

Well said. People all over the internet recommend Logseq as a FOSS Obsidian clone. It has a lot going for it, but the biggest thing stopping me from using Logseq is the forced bullet lists. Ugh

unbanned

and watch video in full HD.

Are you being coerced into saying that, though?

Good to know. Is there a particular guide that you followed to get it running on AMD?

Does this ancient macbook pro still receive OS updates? Separate but related for purposes of choosing hardware. Thanks!

I'm usually not crazy about BBT, but in this case, he really carries the show IMHO.

I know the point is to reduce waste and combat software driven planned obsolescence, but given the circumstances, is there any way for me to score an extra laptop on the cheap? In other words, come October should I look for a deluge of old Windows 10 laptops on eBay or Salvation Army or something?

There are organizations that purport to be Yelp alternatives, such as Open Reviews Association, but I haven't seen anything with widespread integration or adoption. It's a cool idea nonetheless.

Looks like OP updated the title after the other commenter had commented.

Follow-up question: When you say 4G service was non-existent, did your phone show you had four bars but no messages would go through, or was it more like you had one bar / no service?
