  • As expected, nobody cares about “reader mode”. Only once in my life has it ever come in handy… It was a website that was so badly designed I swore never to go back to it ever again.

    I forget what it was but apparently I wasn’t the only one and thus, it must’ve died a fast death as I haven’t seen it ever again (otherwise I’d remember).

    Basically, any website that gets users so frustrated that they resort to reader/simplified mode isn’t going to last very long. If I had my way I would change the messages:

    “This website appears to be total shit. Do you want Firefox to try to fix it so your eyes don’t bleed trying to get through it?”

    I want an extension that does this, actually! It doesn’t need to actually modify the page. Just give me a virtual assistant to comiserate with…

    “The people who made this website should have their browser’s back button removed entirely as punishment for erecting this horror!”











  • declared that the White House would “smell like curry” if Vice President Kamala Harris were to win in November,

    I can’t be the only one who thinks that would be a welcome development. More Asian dishes in the White House would be fantastic. Why does the right hate Asian food? 🤔

    I say this a white American, “What’s wrong with curry‽”

    I’ll come out and say it: If you elect this white guy (me) as president I would make the White House smell like curry from time to time 🍛

    Wait: Do they expect me to eat like some British dude during WW2‽ I mean, that’s how the British are still eating (rose water? No thank you!) but still…

    Maybe those on the right need a DEI food program.
