3.06.2021 Firefox has broken Firefox with a broken update!

 ~~

Thursday 3rd 56F, gales, heavy overcast and raining hard! The forecast is for sunny periods. I was woken by thunder in the night. Waoo Internet was down in the 60s earlier but has recovered to 87Mbps. It is "guaranteed" to be 200Mbps according to their lies advertising. 82Mbps at 12.30. 

Firefox has broken Firefox with a broken update. Another, fast track career builder? On an inflated salary? Desperate to make their mark? Get a new update out there. Whether it is broken or not. Untested, or not. Absolutely pathetic! I wonder if the perp was poached from Android? That's broken as well. 

Or, did Microsoft of "Edge" fame pay them off to break Firefox for a six figure backhander? I was offered Edge this morning without asking for it. How did they know Firefox had broken its [once] popular Browser? Below 8%? And falling fast, no doubt.

I am having to tolerate [tax free] Google Chrome from the Google [tax free] global monopoly. Spelling checker doesn't recognise temperatures in F? Mbps? "Add to dictionary" every single time the numbers change! 

Poster sized "normal" [default] text? Is it responding to my complaints of micro-text on everything? Let's see now: Low contrast, microscopic, pale grey text on a white background? It must be the 21st century! It must be an official document aimed at [and abusing] the elderly but trying to look trendy. Dugh. 

Google/Chrome spelling checker doesn't recognise "dugh" and "dogh?" I'm trying to be trendy here. Do try to keep up!

It's no wonder "smart" phones are so damned big! They have to be tablet sized so users can read their constant rain of messages without needing a bløødy microscope! Or are they that big so they can show their bbf the latest, cringing humiliation of the human race? Smaller phones don't fit their big, fat, baby hands? How do they reach the middle of the screen with their fat, prehensile thumbs?

Well, now we know: The giant script is only for composing. It shrinks once published/posted. <sigh>. OMG! The text is changing size, at random, as I typo. Google Chrome spelling checker doesn't recognise OMG? Seriously?

No walk today. I was dismantling the heating system after the immersion tank developed a leak. Rusted away at the bottom. Some people pay good money for this much exercise! Many people pay heavily [sic] for not doing any at all. 

How about hanging off a three foot steel pipe on the handle of a Stillson wrench just to get a joint "moving?" Then again and again on all the other 1½" iron pipes to gain a few more degrees of a turn. Now do it all in the confines of an airing cupboard. In searing heat from the lean-to greenhouse across the hall. Am I having fun yet?  😅 This is a "smiley" intending to show I was saturated in sweat for most of the day. Most of me disappeared down the plughole when I poured warm water over myself in the bath.
