- mirimir 7y agoGood one, there. But seriously, I have no problem with over 90% of the sites I visit using this Firefox instance. But then there's wired.com and imgur.com, for example, which display just blank pages. I have no clue what it is. I've made too many changes. But I'm reasonably confident that it's something evil that they're doing, rather than something silly that I've done.

- reificator 7y agoWhen I visit Google Play Music in Firefox the interface loads about 80% but all clicks result in an error message. I'm fairly sure it comes down to the automatic tracking protection Firefox touts, but I can't seem to find how to turn it off for one specific site. Or better yet the specific requests that cause breakage on the specific site.
- pmoriarty 7y agoI can read it fine on emacs, using emacs-w3m, which does not understand javascript. So javascript is not required to read this article.

- mirimir 7y agoHuh. And yes, this works: $ w3m -dump https://www.wired.com/story/meet-the-mad-scientist-who-wrote-the-book-on-how-to-hunt-hackers/ | less So it's not Javascript. I wonder what I've done to Firefox. Maybe I'll take some time to figure that out.
