Found a solution, but unsure if this is your expectation or not. Are you accustomed to having to scroll to the right for "wide" pages with this font extension? Because what msn.com is doing is declaring an @media screen and (min-width: ) declaration and intentionally hiding the horizontal scrollbar. You can revert to having a normal horizontal scrollbar by using this as your Custom.css - /* Limit font size */ * { font-size: 14px !important; } body { overflow-x: unset !important; } Or we could attempt a font-size that utilizes @media screen and only adust accordingly - I'll let you try the above and go from there if it's not exactly what you had in mind.

Hmmm... Well, I didn't go so far as to install your extension but I like the method that you used for a CustomCss. I'm kind of reading between the lines here, but my hunch is that you use a custom operating system DPI or that you have a default zoom to enlarge EVERYTHING but then you end up with fonts that were already large being TOO LARGE. So you normalize everything to a default 14px and then your DPI or zoom puts that 14px where you can read it. What happens if you change your * { font-size: 14px !important } to body, html, * { font-size: 14px !important; } Note that I also have an intentional ; right after !important - it souldn't matter but I'm pretty sure all css declarations are supposed to end in one, not sure.

I'm only in my upper 40s and don't drink or smoke and decent BMI so basically "healthy as a horse". I consider myself lucky that I caught covid in January 2020 - before we even really knew what it was. We had close to a dozen folks at work taking sick days for the flu - that's all we thought it was. When March rolled around, we finally knew what it was and it was this time that the local Fiat Chrysler Transmission Plant basically scared the entire town with a confirmed case. I say scared the town because the local media basically had covid pegged as "if you catch this, you WILL die!" You'd think I was exaggerating, but I promise you that I am not. This thing scared the Living Sh#t out of this community. Others at work didn't see the writing on the wall, but I kinda did. I had antibody tests performed by my doctor to find out if what I had in January was covid or not. I am exempt from company vaccine mandates because my antibody tests confirmed that what I had was not the flu, but was in fact covid. Others have the choice of weekly covid tests or getting vaccinated and not having to do weekly covid tests. Didn't miss any work (Mon thru Fri) but "took a point" and skipped a Saturday because of flu-like symptoms. Needless to say, coworkers (at the time) were kind of ticked off at me for being at work that Friday when they found out I didn't miss work. But again, none of us knew about covid at the time, it was just regular ol' seasonal flu. We've had close to three dozen have covid since and they've all been extremely minor - but mandated 14 days off work. I do consider myself lucky that I had covid before we really knew what it was and at "healthy as a horse". I do reallize that it is much MUCH different for "unhealthy" folks. edit - I say "lucky" because at the time my thoughts were basically along the lines of "20yr olds catch this and don't loose a day, 60yrs old catch this and die, I *want* to catch this at 40+ so I don't have to live a life of never catching it but then catching it at 70 and dying from it". But then we found (at least so far) that each "mutation" is less and less of an issue. So (fingers crossed) the variant that will be around when I'm 70 will just be a runny nose after so many mutations. But yeah, mutations can go the other way also. -

Unsure if this practice is still prevalent or not (companies were sued over it circa 2011 (hulu?)), basically there were web sites that could "recreate" / "respawn" a DELETED cookie by using the Etag http header. This is the Proxomitron filter that us Proxomitron users were using to prevent that "respawning". I still keep this in my config but I do not have any in-the-wild examples where "respawning" is known to still be employed or not - I keep it more as an err-on-the-safe-side approach. In = TRUE Out = FALSE Key = "ETag: Always Remove 11.08.16 [jjoe] (o.0) (In) [add++]" Match = "\1&$LOG(CGET $DTM(c) : ETag removed: \1)"

NotHereToPlayGames replied to XPerceniol's topic in Funny Farm
Forgot to mention, and again I kinda rely on the neighbor for most of this info, not the news, but somebody that works IN THE FIELD - she claims that a large number of deaths that are reported as covid deaths were not in fact covid deaths. A gunshot victim or car crash victim would be counted among the covid numbers even if that gunshot or car crash was the "real" cause of death, but since "covid" was found in the lungs (my assumption here), then they were "counted" as a covid death. At any rate, I'm just tired of all of the BS and still have my fingers crossed that we return to "normal". I have no intention of wearing a USELESS mask for the next TWENTY YEARS all because "politicians" don't want to give up their "control" over rules we must follow but they don't think apply to them. Any whoo... -

I'm no doctor, but my neighbor is. She threatened to quit her job three/four weeks ago due to a vaccine mandate that would have required she be vaccinated (she still to this day is NOT vaccinated). She's a consultation physician and to me at least it sounds like when I do jobs as a "consultant". I am exempt from "union rules" at most of the companies that I do consultant work for. The way she tells it, the only reason she was allowed to keep her job and remain UNVACCINATED is because of a Supreme Court ruling (which I have not been following). At any rate, that aside, me and my neighbor are both of the "opinion" (we acknowledge that is is "opinion" but there is "some" studies that back it up, but just as many studies that refute it, but I cannot claim to be following these studies personally, the neighbor is however and I kinda take her word for it), where was I, oh, it is my "opinion" that the folks that have died from covid were in such a state of health that they were going to die anyway, not from covid but something much less "deadly" than covid. So in my view, all of this "crap" that the US and other countries have been doing in the "guise" of 'safety' is all just BS. Opinions vary, of course. But that's mine True. -

All of my BNav extenstions have an install.rdf with the following addition (please do not call it Borealis) [that is, if you are referring to Roytam's release, if you are indeed referring to the official Borealis, then yes, call it Borealis] - <!-- Borealis Navigator --> <em:targetApplication> <Description> <em:id>{a3210b97-8e8a-4737-9aa0-aa0e607640b9}</em:id> <em:minVersion>0.9.0a1</em:minVersion> <em:maxVersion>2.*</em:maxVersion> </Description> </em:targetApplication> -

In the US, there has been 73,100,000 cases and 876,000 deaths. Divide that out and that's 0.01198. So is the mortality rate 0.01198? Or 1.198? At any rate, it's not the "90%" that our media would have had you believe a year and a half ago. -

Forgive me for being a bit unorthodox. But I feel that if we all went around licking each others hands and faces a year and a half ago, we would have achieved natural immunity in less than a MONTH and this thing would be over already. -
We need to take Climate Change seriously
NotHereToPlayGames replied to Dibya's topic in General Discussion
No it isn't. But yeah, it's "peanuts" and not worth arguing over. While my recollection of "exact" details may be fuzzy (because it's an "issue" that only ranks right around a 4 on a 10-point scale), but it *is* an "issue" that should not just be shoved under the rug and "ignored". Google for "history of post office bailouts". But again, yeah, "peanuts" so not worth arguing. -

NotHereToPlayGames replied to Dibya's topic in General Discussion
The Post Office is a much larger waste of money, in my humble view. Between 2007 and 2020, the US Government has had to bail out (ie, taxpayer money) the Post Office pretty much each and every year to the total of $78 billion spanning those years. The Post Office is *NOT* supposed to be funded by TAXPAYER FUNDS. Let alone each and every year! -
re: Just add $SET(0=a_track.i_script:0.) to the ublock filters. Please do not do it that way. That would basically break our entire reason for adding Proxomitron. All internet traffic is seen by Proxomitron before any extension sees the internet traffic. If we start creating extension rules to strip away at Proxomitron functions, then Proxomitron will not be for that user. It is fair to set up Proxomitron as a "small net to catch a few fish" or as a "wide net to catch too many fish". The i_script:0 in particular violates the very essence of intentionally using Proxomitron as a "wide net" then employing its "lists" to whitelist per user needs. If the user prefers the "small net" then i_script:0 would never be needed because that user would not be using the 7.1 Block all Scripts option.

Here I'll highlight another usage for Proxomitron. Here's an example web site to demonstrate -- https://off-guardian.org/2021/09/22/30-facts-you-need-to-know-your-covid-cribsheet/ When you open that page, there are FIFTY ONE same-domain images and SEVENTY FIVE third-party images as pointed out by uMatrix - My internet speed is pretty fast, but that's still a ton of unneeded internet traffic. Especially considering those SEVENTY FIVE gravatar images are nothing but avatar images way down at the bottom in the "comments section". Here are my three added filters to prevent these gravatar images from loading by default - but I can toggle them on by clicking the "F" (fetch) or open in a new tab/window using the "I" (image). Disregard, will post again after further testing.
