The Goblin trader that gets left in the Goblin camp. The way he says "Praise The Absolute" whilst brushing his finger across his nose is so well delivered. Reminds me of a character from a Monty Python sequence.

Mine took almost three weeks. Was sat in customs for days and then out for delivery for three days because my address was labelled incorrectly.

Is Floorp the only option for Firefox for removing horizontal tabs? I like the idea of vertical tabs, but only if I can get rid of the horizontal bar and free up that extra screen space.

I think Hotbot did that back in the 90's, and it's relaunched (well, the name and domain have been put to use again) as a privacy focused search that combines an AI style question/answer style system as well as traditional link list result. https://www.hotbot.com

I'd recommend avoiding Google for web searching. Duckduckgo has been a good alternate for me for about 5 years now. I've heard that Bing is a good alternate, even though its a Microsoft service. ChatGPT is also a good option to compliment web searches, though I'd recommend getting a second result from another service if looking up an answer to a question, but when doing general questions/suggestions it can outperform a web search in both detail and ability to refine/filter.

Google is just a ranked ad delivery service based on an abused and gamed SEO system, it's fucking awful for delivering useful links.

 

I just pressed some key combination, maybe Win+C, which opened some Cortana app which wouldn't close till I killed the task. This got me thinking that I need to get rid of the bloaty shit in this Windows install.

Anyone recommend some good ways to do so?
