I wonder what made youTube decide to fix this loophole? These days the vast majority of people use phone apps or smart TVs to watch. The number of people using Firefox plus ad blockers must be quite small and it'll be a constant effort to keep updating their anti ad block algorithms.

I'm not sure about the quality of the welding near the waterline.

For Firefox: uBlock origin (of course)

This seems like a playbook answer to a question about a subject that's of little immediate importance to his administration, but of some importance to a minority in both Argentina and Britain. Basically saying to his electorate "we haven't forgotten" and to Britain "we're not going to do anything".

Is! Yahoo! still! a! thing!?!

Electoral law should at least demand the same levels of identification for the candidates as it does for the voters. Candidates should be on the electoral register (somewhere) and they should've presented one of the recognised forms of photo ID.

From this photo, this woman looks like the baddie from Men In Black 2.

CNN is reporting that the truck was carrying a large amount of fireworks, gasoline and camping fuel. These appear to have been intentionally ignited. The truck drove past the site of the explosion an hour before returning. The truck exploded shortly after stopping.

Sounds like the cumsprite from Oglaf (NSFW)

Browsers made the Internet usable for the general population. The Internet as we know it would have remained a network for academia, governments and large corporations. Smartphones would not have been developed. Without a reason for everyone's homes to be connected to a high speed network, TV would remain the remit of cable and satellite broadcasting - no streaming services.

The coating on the inside of the tube can behave like a Leyden jar caps can accumulate charge over time even without an obvious power source.

It might be that the default for Windows is to sleep rather than do a full shutdown. Whenever Linux looks at a Windows partition it looks corrupted. When windows starts up again it's inconsistent as some of the data was in the sleep image.

About 10 years ago they provided medical data from the samples. I used 23 And Me too confirm that a health problem I'd recently been diagnosed with was hereditary. At the time I remember being asked if my sample could be used to aid the type of research the OP talks about and I agreed to it.

A couple of years ago, I think 23 And Me was bought out by Virgin Healthcare, at that point I asked them to destroy all my data was worried about it being used to increase the cost of or preclude health insurance.

Under 3 minutes? What's the rush, these are forever chemicals, they've got all the time in the world.

From memory, I think the road bends just before the gates so if you missed the bend you would end up driving into the gates.

Incidentally, the grounds are surrounded by an anti tank fence made out of old railway line yet there is a public footpath through the grounds across the driveway.

I don't know how valid this is, but I heard county and district councils use government bonds to secure more favourable loan terms. When Liz Truss upset the UK bond market the cost of borrowing rose as the value of their bond assets dropped. The county council where I live is now spending as much on servicing debt as it is on fixing roads. (Roads, although not the most important responsibility of local government, are a visible indicator of their capability.)

The story in Space Odyssey was pretty poor too. 20 minutes of apes screaming, computer kills astronauts (good bit), then a 20 minute acid trip that ends up in a hotel room. The special effects in space were amazing, but overall, meh.

I lived less than 2 miles from a coal power station (until they pulled it down). By the owners own admission, when it was running, it released about 60kg of radioactive material a year from stuff that was in the coal.

Car engine injector cleaner and almost any add-it-yourself fuel additive.

Which part of Kent? I hope it's not hanging around the wreck of the SS Richard Montgomery!
