We should gamify it. We should socialize the medicine, so everyone can afford it - I mean, come on- but then:

If you work in a lab which creates a life saving drug - you get a ticker tape parade through every fucking city in the USA - you get a bronze statue in the "park of medical heroes." Everyone knows you as "the man who fucking cured HSHBRHF variant 4x."

The bike lane is usable. I mean, for about a half-a-block at a time, cause of the parked cars.

I wish NYC would allow citizens to take a video of a car parked in the bike lane for more than a minute, issue a ticket, and make it profitable for the ticket issuer. All of the problems would go away overnight.

And actually, I wish we could take videos of cars going through red lights. Or, LOL, illegal u-turns. "Go around the block" is not a thing anymore. Everyone just turns around wherever the fuck they are.

Yeah, I just hope NYC is taxing the fuck out of those quadra-cycle-boxes. I know we aren't, but come on- Amazon trucks routinely park all day near my apt, blocking the bike lane and half of the road. Tax them, tax them, tax them.

Here's sort of a strange question. Not too strange though ;-)

Let's say you had a basic rice and beans meal - garlic .. onions ... root vegetables .. blackbeans and redbeans ... then kale roots and final kale leafs ... salt pepper

What spices do you use? What are your favorites?

How do you get your protein? I've been doing the plants - and eating beans a lot - but this last week I ate some meatballs in my soups and boy - I really crave the meat.

edit - not sure why it quotes irrelevant text in these replies

Ok I have some news -

It's not safebrowsing - or probably not - maybe I just can't turn it off now or something.

So I

  • "refreshed" firefox to get to original state
  • disabled all of safebrowsing via settings and then via about:config -> "safebr*.enabled"
  • disabled all telemetry that got turned on via refresh
  • turned off fucking AI

Nothing worked.

Eventually got logs running with: "export MOZ_LOG=timestamp,rotate:200,nsHttp:5,cache2:5,nsSocketTransport:100,nsHostResolver:100"

found out mozilla is doing fucking push notifications?? wtf. that resolves to google? turned that off.

Anyway, it does a bunch of shit. All talking to google in the end.

I hate Firefox. I'm so over all of this.

When I start the browser, and it is blank, and I have done nothing, it should do nothing. If it needs some base certificate updates, it should do this once a week. Or never. Let me decide.

Talking to google, even doing dns lookups every fucking time I open a browser. God. Who are these people. /rant

Firefox is trying to connect to 34.160.144.191 at startup. It continues the connection, perhaps to reuse it, or whatever.

Firefox should never talk to google. And if there is some database that google has that firefox needs, Firefox should duplicate that DB. The fact that I have this thing talking to google anytime I do anything is gross. Anyhow. Blah blah blah. I'm annoying! ;-)

I have a feeling it's the safebrowsing. Will find out later. And then will disable.
