But The Roman Mars Mazda Virus episode is still my fav investigation. I am surprised PJ didn't mention it even once, considering how similar both bugs were.
Hey @peabee.foo - I might have something for you about your last post on substack. I made an app that scans all your apps automatically, completely offline: play.google.com/store/apps/d... - DM me for more info.

Compelled by those atrocious Parle Marie ads, I wrote a tiny browser extension to auto mute certain IPL ads on Hotstar.
It actually works really well and also mutes Vimal, Kamla Pasand, My11, Pokerbaazi etc ads out of the box.

took forever, but I am healed now

What a clever little project this is:

one of the pet peeves is when a yt video begins with a highlight from later in the video, then jumps back to the beginning. I already clicked play, you don’t have to sell it to me anymore.
I love the SponsorBlock and DeArrow browser add-ons for yt, are there any to skip these intros too?
It wasn't the NYT, but close enough!
(I hope they got a good pay out from The Atlantic for this because it's such a fun game)
no idea it was even posted there. You'll have to ask their mods

Common Side Effects is such a good show. The animation, the characters, the subject, and the whole vibe - looks fantastic and unlike anything i've seen in a long while

can anyone identify the movie/show this still belongs to? Google image search wasn't very helpful. I initially thought this was Jenna Ortega from Wednesday but the hair does not match

Not sure if the fix should come from Firefox or Hotstar, but here’s how you can fix it for now:
1. Type about:config in the address bar
2. "Accept the Risk and Continue"
3. Search cookiestore
4. Toggle its value to false
5. Restart Firefox and open Hotstar - it should work again
JioHotstar website is currently broken on the latest version of Firefox. This is due to Firefox v136 introducing a new browser API called CookieStore, which enforces a 1024 byte cookie size limit and two of Hotstar’s cookies exceed this limit. I've got a temporary workaround 👇

Realtime AQI data is still being returned from AQI monitors in New Delhi and Chennai US embassies. Not sure for how much longer though.
AQI monitors at US embassies in Mumbai, Kolkata, and Hyderabad appear to be dead.
Reddit is sending threats for upvoting posts now. Very normal behaviour
06.03.2025 23:37 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0This was one of the few good sources for reliable AQI data in India.
The AirNow gov website that hosted this data is now dead. The historical data was on another domain which has also been wiped.
Wayback machine has only 12 csv files archived. Was anyone able to rescue more historical data?
they're bringing digg back? 🥹
