The web is becoming very hostile to ad blockers. I use a VPN and I've noticed more and more sites just being obnoxious with their popups and even just crashing the site completely in a loop (looking at you EuroNews)
It doesn't solve everything but the 'full' desktop version of the ublock origin plugin runs just fine in Android on Firefox. I can't even imagine using any other mobile browser now. I don't know what the situation is for iphone platform stuff these days.
This Even skimming the web could take up 1000X the hours I have in a day, and I really should spend more time exercising, and reading books, and with friends and family, and volunteering, and ...
I suspect it's not a real crash you're seeing, but rather a deceptive anti-adblocking script that redirects to a page that fraudulently claims to be a crash.
They sell bedsheets, with sort of a raunchy ad campaign.
I had a adblocker but wound up uninstalling it when it became more of a hassle than it was worth.
There may be gaps every now and then in block lists of ad blocking solutions, but besides that, you are using the wrong ad blocker. abp is not to be trusted to reliably block all ads it could. It has a different mission than uBlock Origin.
Kind of, you could tell it took a lot of effort. Usually after a full night of sleep and a good breakfast, or after a nap. A few of us had lengthy car rides where he said everything he wanted to
He told me he was so jealous of all this new computer stuff I get to play with. I think about that a lot this year
It's always the first step. The second step would be switching the license and only supporting the changed licensed version, then "donating" the unmaintained version to the community.
Has Google ever done this before though? I'm not much of a fan of Google either, but they tend to just abandon products outright rather than relicence them.
No, you need to use -nw with emacs to make it apples to apples. Then it's emacs 0m0.095s vs nvim 0m0.057s:
$ time nvim -es --cmd 'vim.cmd("q")'
real 0m0.057s
user 0m0.016s
sys 0m0.017s
$ time emacs -Q -e kill-emacs
real 0m0.230s
user 0m0.165s
sys 0m0.064s
$ time emacs -nw -Q -e kill-emacs
real 0m0.095s
user 0m0.057s
sys 0m0.017s
I am an org-mode user myself, but I find the lack of inherent structure pretty paralysing and have built-up complex nested trees of tasks and org-roam notes that I haven't looked at in years. I fear org-agenda and the many year-long incomplete tasks I have been putting off.
I know this is probably not something that a tech tool will fix on its own, but do you mind sharing your config and how you converged to something that worked?
