The Gobbler has renamed New York City to “Stupendous Donkey Frootloop” and everyone is really saying the latter but still thinks they are saying “New York City.”

Studies show that only 0.01% of people can hear what they are really saying.

What a performance, especially sitting on the floor.

But whatever mook uploaded this in a slightly-incorrect aspect ratio needs to be slapped with a trout. How can you do such things.

Her headpiece is beyond awesome.

A true full live performance and a really good one. Those guys way in the back are doing sound-mixing in real time and doing a shockingly good job, too.

I can learn from smart but evil people. That’s why I read some of them.

But most people can’t even learn from smart but virtuous people. Most people just don’t care about evidence at all, and will trumpet some bogus finding that’s obviously false over mounds of available and well-gathered substantiation if the shaky and incorrect data comports with what they and their tribe wish to believe.

You can see this with climate change, the efficacy of facemasks, the excessive mortality rates due to Covid-19 and in so many other areas.

Just as with the truth of how very well propaganda works, the fact that people just do not give a single fuck about evidence was something I only really learned well and truly as an adult. Both were very disappointing revelations and keep me apart from other people more than any other factors.

With the non-shitty versions of Firefox which still supported proper extensions, I could right-click a link and open it in another browser in nearly no time. This is impossible in the new “improved” Firefox. It used to be two quick clicks, like this:

Now the process is:

1) Copy the URL (which is harder as it’s all hidden now).
2) Open the other browser.
3) Do shortcut for new tab (keyboard or button).
4) Paste into browser bar and either do “paste and go” or hit enter.

It seems somewhat minor I admit but I just timed it and the easier way when Firefox worked correctly took me less than one second and the crappy new way takes me seven seconds. In other words, the more “secure” Firefox causes me to spend seven times longer to do the exact same task. This is something I do probably 10-20 times a day so if I take the average and say I do it 15 times, the “better” Firefox is costing me an extra 90 seconds a day.

There are 365 days in a year. Therefore, the new Firefox is costing me 32,850 seconds a year, or 547.5 minutes a year, or a little over nine hours a year. And that’s one extension, and not even my most-commonly used one!

Fuck Mozilla and fuck the Firefox developers.
