I was having the same issues and switching worked. Thanks for the tip!

I haven't run into that one yet!

I finally found the Neon Dancer hat and suit in the same game. I made the Adoring Fan into the latest addition of Guardian Vogue Magazine.

 

I just got Kodi up and running on a Firestick. I installed the Xenon Build for add-ons. Does anyone have a link to a guide on everything that you can customize and a general use guide?

I'm currently most interested in getting subtitles set up to automatically load. I found a toggle to keep them enabled, but you still have to download the subtitles manually.

Any tips that you might have are also welcome. Even if it's to recommend a different build, all help is appreciated.

greater setting for subtitles, size, color, descriptive vs transcription. And keep ui elements out of the caption zones!

I can not tell you how many times I have missed key dialog because the Xbox achievement pane pops up over it for a full 5 seconds.

Starfield has also been atrocious about random NPC flavor text covering the main dialog, so I will miss full sentences in the middle of quests.

I canceled last week. I paid to bundle hulu and Disney so I could lock in the year before the price hike. Hulu would never allow me to log in, I spent 7+ hours with tech support over the last month with them literally having me log in and out over and over without doing anything on their end. Never got logged in.

Several times they tried to sell me that I had to accept the ad tier or the one that included ESPN (which you know full well will get bigger cost spikes) despite promising I wouldn't have to change plans.

I finally told them to cancel and refund the days. I haven't pirated in over 4 years, because I finally make enough money and wanted to support content and have easy setup on products as my mom and daughter (outside of household) and my husband and son (in household) depend on me.

I started with a VPN and streaming this week. I will be working on jellyfin in the next week. They could have had my money, but they want to fuck around with my time, money, and content. I'm pissed and done.

 

It seems like there's been a lot more websites that have been deploying anti-adware blocker software in the past few weeks. One that stands out in particular is called Admiral (see websites like GameRant for an example).

I have tried Adguard Plus and Rethink DNS (using the instructions from FMHY), and neither can prevent the popup that stops you from reading the site. I assume there's user scripts out there, but at this point, I don't even know what to search for on Greasyfork.

Have any of you figured out a workaround?
