Have you tried comply-style foam tips? I feel pressure with the standard silicone tips that iems tend to come with, but I've been able to wear foam ones for hours without discomfort. The only issue imo is that the foam tips do wear out and break down over time. I haven't actually tracked how long they last, but from memory I think I get about 6 months out of a pair of foam earbud tips.


Just a guess, but from the preview image the site shows, youtube w/o ublock loads 2 large banners, and one row of videos, vs 3 rows of videos w/ ublock. The larger number of video thumbnails shown may explain the larger size


I'm no expert on this, but I think that wording suggests that the government's goal is to tax, but it seems to me that a government really wants to spend.

My understanding of MMT is that it removes the direct relationship between the ideas of spending and taxation, instead tying them both to inflation. Spending increases inflation by adding currency into circulation, and taxation decreases inflation by removing it from circulation. Although I'm not sure how that fits into a one-liner :)


Government also needs to tax to ensure sufficient demand for its money ("taxes drive money")


What's the name of the podcast?


The Haskell Cast. This is the episode I was referring to. It's pretty good.

Google Maps in the U.S. has the avoid tolls option as well. I'm not the poster that previously brought up this issue, but I'm happy to use a toll road if it saves me significant time. It would be nice if I could set a threshold to say "only use toll roads if it'll save me X minutes," or something similar.


It shows the infobox, but there's a "Show all results" button below it for me.


No show all button on mobile

I'm curious how important it is to most people which side the window controls are on. I prefer the controls on the right, but whenever I do use Ubuntu or other systems where the controls are on the left, it doesn't really bother me. If others consider it more important, I'd be interested to hear why.


You can go to the "History" page on youtube and delete the video from your watch history. It seems to stop youtube from using it for recommendations.
