There is setting/preference called "Always show scrollbars". It toggles the "widget.gtk.overlay-scrollbars.enabled" pref as mentioned by the Anonymous Coward. It will not force the scrollbar to be visible on a page that cannot scroll. I think that requires GTK v3 tweaks for UNIX systems.

Have you tried making a setting in user.js in the profile directory to force it every time you start Firefox? Check out the arkenfox link at the bottom of my post.

Try setting:
- widget.gtk.overlay-scrollbars.enabled to false
- widget.non-native-theme.scrollbar.size.override to the size you want

I cannot help you there. Pocket is one of the first things disabled for me.

You should take a gander at https://github.com/arkenfox/us... to minimize the junk in Firefox.

I am not sure how to put that into perspective. In the U.S., an estimated 12% of people will develop a thyroid disease. This paper makes it sound like that COVID hits those people a bit harder.

On the other hand, there are many types of thyroid disease and symptoms. Is it going after those with hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism symptoms more often? Perhaps, it is hitting primarily those with thyroid cancer? Thyroid issues can cause cardiovascular issues. Maybe, COVID prefers those with chronic heart disease caused by thyroid disease. I lack access to the paper, assuming I could understand it :), so have plenty of questions about what the paper is finding. I am not questioning if they are wrong; I am just full of questions about what it means.

So many variables; so little time. ;)

I agree with the E-mail forms that on websites that block the + character. Amusingly, I need to change my E-mail for one site where the form allows it, but the backend does not send to it.

Even everyone's favorite, the Star Wars Holiday Special?

I saw the headline as Commodore 64.

I never had one but did have a VIC-20.

You really should not use O'Hare as an example. I have bad luck flying through there domestically as well as internationally for years. I am a U.S. citizen. Queues, lost seats, lost luggage, etc. are just some of what I have experienced. You can probably find numerous Top 10 Bad Airports and it will be on the list.

I had to queue in Hokkaido for an hour and a half last year. Does that make Japan an inhospitable place to visit too? BTW, an hour and a half in a queue at O'Hare is probably record time. ;)

With all that said, I do not care for all the non-security screenings. Social media screening of a phone? Oh, please! If they are going to do something really bad, they *probably* did not say anything on social media.

To all those saying it is because of Trump, they are wrong. It gets crazier year after year regardless of the president in charge.

I think this cartoon illustrates[1] why the ban is not a Muslim ban. If it was, the list would be much larger. http://michaelpramirez.com/upl...

My wife's first thought when the ban was made was, "If it is a Muslim ban, why is Indonesia not on the list?"

1. Yes, I had to make a pun. :)

Cyrus IMAP works well for me. Setup was not particularly easy, but once I got past that, it has been solid. This is for my personal domain, so I cannot speak of larger installations.

Somehow, I doubt Carnegie Mellon had an issue with finding someone that knows Cyrus well. ;)

If they did not take into account state taxes, they also skipped city, township and county taxes. Sales tax can come from state, city and county, I think.

Gas taxis 18.4/gallon at the federal level, so it should be already in there, right? I am not sure. Anyway, state and city can add their own gas taxes.

Does the UK's VAT replace the income tax there or do both exist?

A more thorough report would be nice regardless of whether the U.S. is higher or lower on the chart.

A report for value obtained by those taxes would also be nice. However, that can be highly subjective.

Exactly my thoughts. Ignoring a lot of different tax avenues that governments utilize is one deficiency in the report. The other is the value provided. Ignoring whether the country should or should not provide services (i.e., healthcare), what the country does provide as part of taxation(s) should also be accounted. Well, I guess that could go into a separate report.

Also, what about evaluating the individual states of the United States? The European Union countries were rated individually while the United States was rated as a whole. I am ignorant on how tight the EU is, so evaluating them individually may be appropriate.

I also run Firefox mobile and desktop (FreeBSD, Linux, Windows, Mac, Android). It runs quite well on all of them. Chrome starts just about as quickly as Firefox for me when using about the same number of extensions.

BTW, have you gotten uBlock Origin to work with Chrome mobile yet? ;)

You forgot the ??? before alimony.
