it seems to work on youtube so far, but that could also be due to the previous custom filters I installed months ago when yt ramped up their "no adblocker" campaign. UBO still works in the sense that all of the filters and lists you've installed are still there and functioning, you just can't update the extension. I'm still running UBO alongside UBO lite and it's working fine for now (knock on wood) until I can afford a new Windows machine.

cool! in no time at all, disposable vapes will usurp cigarette butts as the #1 form of litter across the globe! but in all seriousness, god bless this guy. hopefully his example will inspire people to be slightly less careless and slightly more cognizant of how they dispose of their waste (audience laughter turns to applause)

I've been using a chromebook for the last 4 years and it's been great for my needs (youtube, streaming, porn, etc), but I am shopping for a windows machine now because fuck google.

either that or they don't make jet fuel like they used to

in before "um, actually, the B-25 was a propeller-driven aircraft and therefore obviously did not use jet fuel"

I guess Canada must be undeveloped, cause I've never seen one of those "expensive letters" in my mailbox

I sanitize my water bottles in the sun. After washing them I put them on a south-facing windowsill and let the UV light kill every last living microbe that might be lurking in the crannies. (it's always the crannies that get you, the nooks are usually fine)

*unfazed

"fazed" means "disconcerted or perturbed", just FYI, and I will take my downvotes now

safe cycling infrastructure does nothing to prevent you from having a sudden equipment failure and finding yourself going over the bars face-first, or from just being an uncoordinated idiot who wipes out for no reason and gets a closed head injury. I had a crank fail on my bike once, snapped in half in full sprint and I wiped badly. helmet did its job and I was thankful to have it, because there's no predicting stuff like that

that has to be UK, it just has to be. the CCTV surveillance state is crazy there. (saying this as a Canadian whose face is recorded probably 200 times a day in my city)
