Seems to be back to normal (still avoiding definite statements, because I don't have any unvarnished wood to touch).
Ghostery must have updated during the same session when I visited the green CP, just to confuse me -- coincidence isn't your friend, when bug-hunting.

Oh, and have you tried Chrome / Edge? (In a VM / sandbox if necessary.)

I used to have a account there, but now (i tried to check how it work at my end) it seems to be locked... I do not remember my password but RootAdmin can't send a restore-link to my email, even it is obviously in the DB (I can't create a new account with that email)

I not really used it actively, but tried to check what Mark may see...

I don't use it actively either (nobody does that I can see) - to the point when I tried to log in it had an old password: I can;t even remember when I last changed my CP one, so it must be a few years now ...
I used to use it to let Chris know CP was down

I thought that was effectively closed down a couple of years ago.

The d***-less wonders in our IT department rolled out "managed" Chrome a couple of weeks ago. Most web sites (including CP) no longer remember logins between sessions or other preferences.

 wonderful, one of my old favorites. i have wondered if Tone was an influence on the emergence of rap. in my head, this song connects with some of the great 1950's surreal story-narrative songs like "Poison Ivy," "Li'l Egypt."

Wow! Whadda small world. I also watched Funky Cold Medina today - but that was hours ago and I've only just read this comment.
Beasty Boys - Sabotage was suggested as a response to something, but for some reason I thought of RUN DMC's It's Tricky - probably in part after watching Penn and Teller's Fool Us last night. Lo and behold, Funky Cold Medina was a suggestion that I jumped at eagerly. Funny thing is - didn't care for either of them when they were released. They've long ago become classics.

Always enjoyed this, but also also liked how it is featuring Aerosmith, the band that originally wrote and performed the song and Run DMC turned up wearing Adidas Rome running shoes and people lost there mind.
Reminds of that part in Delirious where Eddie is describing talking about Stevie Wonder and Black People lose their mother elephanting minds.
Aerosmith wrote the song, performed the song and Run DMC added a couple of spoken word lines. Now no one thinks of that song and thinks of Aerosmith.

Quite right, too!
How dare real musicians (who can even read music!!!) play real instruments in pop songs!

But it's still unmistakably Aerosmith, with or without DMC

I think I'm not the only lefty with a laptop so please fellow lefty coders how have you solved this problem: when I use a mouse I do what most lefties do and swap the mouse buttons so my primary button is on the right. On my laptop and on most laptops I've seen in recent years, the touchpad is in the middle and the primary button is to the left where my 'good' hand is, so I don't have a need to swap buttons.
The biggest problem is when I RDP into my desktop where the mouse buttons are swapped because I use a mouse on the desktop. I have to 'un-swap' the buttons only to be annoyed the next time I go to my desktop and have to swap them again. I think I found the shortest key combination in Windows to swap mouse buttons (try: Winkey+I, 'm', 'o', down arrow, enter, 'r' or 'l') but it is still annoying.
Apart from enduring, do you have other solutions?
Thanks

Swap over the wires leading to the mouse and hope?

Better yet: swap the wires going into my brain.
Thought of that but I kind of like the way my brain is wired.

I am not a leftie but I regularly swap mouse hands so I don't end up to wonky.
I don't swap the mouse button assignment, I simply move my index finger across to use the left mouse button - it means I don't have to remember to swap to using a middle finger.

I did that for about 10-15 years starting in the mid 90s; but RSI. 
Since then I've used various re-mappings: first at the OS level; more recently either done in hardware (Razer left handed mice), or in fancy mice via device specific configuration software (Logitech G903).
I know the former worked great with RDP both incoming and outgoing from my machine, although with the only left handed mouse Razer sells at present being new old stock from a decade ago and their reliability being kinda meh I hesitate to recommend them today. I'm not sure how the G903 would behave with remote sessions; but AFAIK it's reprogramming what the mouse itself sends to the OS, so I'd assume it's transparent.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
