I have an off-topic observation ...
So I happen to be working in an old VM, and it has an old version of Firefox. And yes, I know that I ought to migrate. Anyway, this old Firefox just won't load some sites, including The New Yorker. But there's a simple workaround:
user@host:~$ w3m -dump https://www.foo.bar/baz/ | less
- ardit33 6y agoI hate to be rude but: No one cares. How is your very specific linux/firefox setup any relevant to this conversation.... ? It is so common/cliche for the first comment to be: it wont load, too slow, i hate the fonts, etc.. etc... It doesn't add anything relevant to the convo/topic.
- WrtCdEvrydy 6y agoWhoa, that's uncalled for. Send me some bitcoin and I'll double it.
- mirimir 6y agoYMMV, but w3m is a very useful tool. Also, given your comment history, it's disingenuous to say that you "hate to be rude".
- mav3rick 6y agoWtf ? Just upgrade
- mirimir 6y agoIt's an old #! VM, so upgrading would break too many things. Also, I haven't made time to settle on which flavor of which Linux distro to switch to. Any suggestions, for someone who loved #!'s OpenBox desktop?
- pininja 6y agoInteresting, I didn’t know about that command. Thanks for sharing.
