New commenting system implemented on TLC. Even got it to import hyvor comments. May end up bringing this to my mtwb blog, but I do like fediverse comments. We'll see.

So that @Vivaldi problem I had with YouTube the other day? it came back.

But I know what it is now. It's the built in Vivaldi ad blocker. Add an exception for YouTube, and at least so far, the problem goes away.

Don't you love it when you push a highly tested new site design and it breaks 10 minutes after launching? Me too

You can tell my new blog design for TLC went live, my auto post picked up the new pages. Blog post about it coming in a few.

Spent the day trying to get the new Linux Cast website to be mobile responsive. fIghint to find out where extra padding was coming from. Ended up reverting and starting over.

Got the YouTube thing fixed. Deleted the Vivaldi profile, and that worked. Thank goodness. I was stressing over having to find a new browser so my YouTube addiction could continue.

I don't know what people see in the Zen browser. It's just not a good UI. I'm going to use it for a little while and see if my opinion changes.

For those of you who use #freshrss and read your feeds on Android, what app do you use? I'm looking for a new app, preferably one that doesn't require a subscription
January 16, 2026 at 8:06 PM
So the YouTube errors are only on @Vivaldi. Works fine in zen, Firefox and chromium.

I'm going to try to delete the profile tomorrow and start fresh. See if that works. I already tried removing all plugins, that didn't work. I tried being signed out, that didn't work.

Anybody else seeing this on YouTube? Refreshing gets it to go away, but this is annoying.

Who knew there was something called a Bass Flute? Not me. Just saw someone playing it. Jesus it is weird.

No pod this week, folks. My internet went down and hasn't come back yet. We'll pick back up next week.

Some people have legitimate reasons not to switch to #linux

Others are just too lazy to try.

This should have been done yesterday. Or six months ago.

But better late than never.

Uptime Kuna setup to monitor my backups.

This has been a productive day.
