I have an intermittent issue in FF across platforms/networks where I can watch in network console as I enter a URL, and I can see it not even trying to send the request. All I can find is a fixed issue from 2017 and I don't have the time nor inclination to try to figure out why this would be happening. Searching for a cool new browser for the Linux box but I might just install Chromium and be done with it.

I grew up making PB&B by mashing the banana and peanut butter together in a bowl, tuning the ratio to taste at that time, and then applying the mixture to the bread. I'm starting to think maybe this was not the usual way?

Yeah, you don't have to log in, you just download a subscription list file from YT and stick it in the client.

On that, I recommend "Fool's Gold: Why the Internet Is No Substitute for a Library"

You just say "interrogative" before your question. See here, 0:17 https://youtube.com/watch?v=oquZP7saqoE

I've been curious about this sort of thing, but I haven't been able to find good info on it. For example, it seems to me that the format of "It's not x, it's y" is widely accepted. I'm not sure if that's by simple common use or by way of some nuance that I'm not aware of. Certainly in some cases it can be difficult to avoid both comma splices and sounding stilted. I'd love to know more -- I don't seem to recall anything about it from when I had a copy of the Chicago Manual of Style.
