Mnrvovrfc lite mode - grymmjack - 09-10-2023
Hey @mnrvovrfc
I remembered you saying you needed a new PC but saw this feature and it might help you:

This removes almost all slow stuff. Give that a shot?
I did not even know this existed until the dark mode theme made the link more visible.

Well, then apparently no one knows how to contact Pete.

This is the first time I check out this thread since it was started. :O
Thank you @grymmjack. I didn't think it was a bad joke. Because everything else on this thread has to do with another user.
My computer is not that slow and behind in technology. I have no choice with web browser, I have to use something, that's why I use Firefox. But when I open this site it always loads the season banner. Then it decides if UBlock Origin or other extension does something to it. I don't know from where this summer banner is being downloaded from but I'm getting 100KiB/second or less from it regularly. It's becoming punishing to get the QBJS code blocks also. Because in any thread that has them now, it forces the view into wherever it happened to put the cursor to edit QBJS code.
It could be better if the stupid web browser is able to block things without resorting to an extension. Maybe it's time to check out the independent Ad-Blocker app provided in a few Linux distros. Yeah that could work on Palemoon, obviously...
But this whining is because I'm using Firefox on Linux. It could be different on Windows or with another browser. But I'm getting around, that's what's important.
This limited style is good for reading without many distractions. It's easier to see the source code although with print getting too small for me to read. Still better than the color going to downtown casino.
