Why is it that I get asked about cookies every time I come here when I told it OK the last time? Can't it set a cookie for that?
We can all agree that in 2015 not a single person got the answer correct to, "Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?"

Do you have persistent cookies enabled in your browser?

I have 'only" 3rd party cookies disabled in my browsers (Firefox, Waterfox). Cookies for the site I'm on are, more or less, a necessary evil. My browser also wipes the cookies away, all of them, every time I close it.
So, for CP - no warning. You could, if the above is too broad a brush, enable cookies for this domain and be done with it that way.

Yes, I thought it was a problem with my ISP. But no, issue with Youtube itself.

I would not give a crap, but my daughters... I am even scared to think of it

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

2020 will forever be remembered as the year when YouTube went down worldwide

Yeah, and it screwed up my viewing of Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!.
Only got so many Alex Trebek episodes left dammit.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

I was in the middle of watching one of the movies I had purchased.
But my kids use it most, and they were not happy campers. Oh well.

Rumor mill is that YouTube was hacked repeatedly last night. YouTube/Google is not saying a word as to the reason for the video services not working.
but these are rumors, so who really knows.

I shared it with all my friend last week!
And then I went into the memory lane and shared the leek twirling girl as well!
(And also listened to the Levan polka for 2 days non stop! )
BTW, here is the ** new ** version of the leek twirling girl!
Basically exactly the same, with somewhat better sound!

I'm getting a lot scrachtiness in the left external speaker (driven by the headphone jack), and it has definitely been isolated to there as switching the wiring, the bad signal follows it, and it is there with a different 3/8"-headphone-female-to-LR-RCA cable. The scratchiness is not there with the admittedly less hi-fi notebook speaker, although the scratchiness is at at mid-high frequencies that the notebook speaker reproduces.
So the question is what can be done without going into box, something that I would rather not get into based on some mixed experience with getting into the hardware. I figure that there are 2 possible paths to go down - [1] some type of USB dongle that could take the good signal from the current OEM sound card that I would imagine is integrated into the motherboard (HP Pavilion Power), and deliver it to a 3/8"-headphone-female - or [2] a sound card USB dongle that completely takes the place of the OEM sound card. While the rest of the notebook is starting to show its age (needs a new battery and keyboard, and would use a boost from 8 to 16 GB core), I am not quite ready to invest another $1K into a system just yet.
If I have to go the route of [2], then it is a question of just how good a new sound card I need to get to get comparable performance. The best speaker system I use is the Paradigm Active/20, which makes it one of the best computer speakers that anyone would have.
So I am open to any suggestions.

Use a rubber mallet to drive an awl firmly into the headphone jack, and then attach alligator clips to the awl's shaft.
