We ran out of toilet paper and started using lettuce leaves - today was just the tip of the iceberg, tomorrow Romaines to be seen.

That kales for some serious head-scratching. Perhaps you corn cob out some sort of niche market - or just leaf things as they are (phew!)

The only suitable use for kale, come to think of it.

I think I said this before...
Lettuce? Why back in my pandemic days we had to drag our bare butts on the lawn, in the snow, uphill! Both ways!
Lettuce!! You had it easy...

I was just surfing the Washington Post website - one that seems to have a strict policy of only allowing one article to be read before popping up a screen demanding a subscription. To get around this, I had been simply deleting the cookies via the toolbox icon in the URL textbox, but sometimes it doesn't seem to work. I also have the Cookie Remover add-on, which gives a message of how many cookies have been deleted. Sometimes consecutive actuations of the Cookie Remover show *more* cookies being removed, which seems to me to indicate that the website is responding to my deleting the cookies by loading more.

No, it's just that cookies are breeding on your system. Strange, they don't normally do that unless the site is coded in Spring.

What is the technical term for "breeding cookies". I did a search, and nothing useful came up.

Brilliant !

Yes, many sites have got wise to this and have found a better way of stopping you from abusing their system.
|
|
|
|

...which is why Google is trying to get rid of cookies. They put themselves in a positive light to those who believe them when they say it's to "protect their privacy", while in reality Google has plenty of other means for more thorough tracking.

Try using a Private Window. That often works, though I can't vouch for this particular fish wrapper.

They know your IP address; they can count; they can back their cookies for however long they want on their servers. They can therefore also tell who tries to game them. (As anyone who reads your post can tell).

They may be checking your IP address as well.
Another thing to try is to wait till most of the content has loaded (but before it loads fully) then hit F9 to go into Reader View.

getTested() creates a conundrum without an if (i.e. "If I suspect ...")
For a "voluntary" test to be effective, one should isolate until the results are known (which is usually impractical).
If one doesn't isolate, the implication is that one suspected one was sick (and therefore got tested), but did not isolate and therefore was careless. Some have been fired over this (testing positive later).
My sense is, unless you suspect you're sick, getting tested is pointless unless you are part of a large scale screening process (which I agree with).

Or you're going to travel to another location that requires either a clean test or a quarantine.

I didn't write it, but ... the author thinks this is a good idea that should be allowed in C# code:
getSeries()
{
if (flag == pass) goto ep;
for i1 ...
...
for i2 ...
...
for i3 ...
...
for i4 ...
.
.
.
for ...
{
...
return;
ep;
}
}
}
}
}Me? I'm not a fan.

You need to tell the author he's in the wrong job. He needs to find something where logic and common sense isn't required. Management, maybe?

He would probably ace politics...
