I experience suboptimal viewing by having to watch ads. If I had to pick one or the other, I know which one I prefer.

No. Perhaps because when I get paid to write about science, I don’t use grammar like that.

If they do, it is probably to avoid grammar like ‘off of’.

Been using QBittorrent for longer than I can remember now. It certainly does everything I have ever wanted from it.

As far as I am aware, Chronicle Audiobook Player is the only android one that works with Plex.

It does the trick, but I wouldn’t consider it a particularly outstanding audiobook player in general. I use Smart Audiobooks for non-Plex ones but Chronicle to play directly from my Plex server.

Whilst I am sympathetic to the overall aim of this, things like this:

She would have expected people to name figures such as Quintus Lollius Urbicus, who became governor of Roman Britain

…do stand out as being a a bit unrealisitic. I mean, how many governors of Roman Britain of any race or nationality can the typical Briton actually name? I’d be surprised if it was more than 1 and probably less than that.

And if the expectation is that anyone would know of this guy only because his chief contribution to history is “being black” then I am not sure what we are gaining here.

Although I am required to use windows machines for work normally and, since we dont have access to firefox, i normally use edge there, there are occasions on which I find it convenient to hop into a similar setup on my home linux machine to get to my work account. I will use edge for that - as well as outlook online etc.

For a work browser, I find it pretty useful. There is no way that I would want to use if for general purposes though.
