  • Wanted to mention this seems to be fixed, but I was never able to find a tool that could tell me why it was occurring.

    It was ultimately NTP (clock), but it was actually the router clock. I switched PCs and I think my original PC had software to talk to the router, which must’ve been setting the time. It seems like it changed to a completely different time at some point.

    Changed it, then just released/renewed/flushed dns. I also manually turned on the time service at some point and ran a sync from the command prompt just to be safe. and everything is acting normally now.





  • Update: So far i’m down to 2 extensions:
    Ublock
    600% sound volume

    Memory still ballooned from 1GB to 5GB.

    When I checked processes before closing, even after force unloading Youtube under processes, GPU was using around 1 GB. There was literally nothing else I could unload that would stop this.

    Again I loaded all tabs just to be fair…GPU is using half of that currently. I’m also questioning the reliability of about:processes to an extent, because I couldn’t actually see what was adding up to the 5 GB I was seeing in task manager.

    I also tried some advice I saw to just whitelist youtube, as it sounds like google does something regarding adblockers. But this did not seem to do anything noticable.

    edit: based on another post, trying troubleshoot mode, though i’m always uncomfortable having all site blockers (ublock now) turned off.

    Whats so complicated about probability?

    Probably that it is at the end of the day still chance, and once it happens it happens.

    Almost all people who didn’t vaccinate against covid are still alive and well you know.

    Pretty sure that’s wrong.

    People take a risk either way. Taking the vaccine or not taking it.

    You’re also taking a risk to take the disease head-on or not. Side effect of Covid include

    -Excessively high fever
    -Weakness
    -Potential risk of Long Covid
    -Fucking death

    Pretty sure most people think of Covid, the thing a lot of people did die to, or Polio, the returning sickness that we literally had a president who couldn’t walk because of.

    Fun part being we’re having life-debilitating diseases (again, polio) come back from the results of the anti-vax rhetoric.

    A lot of medicines have side effect. And a lot of side effects. But you still take them because The thing you’re taking them for fucking sucks

    There’s being careful and there’s forgetting the whole point of it all: to not get a life-debilitating sickness. Which a lot of vaccines eliminate.

    Basically we encompass everything as black/white socialism/capitalism

    When pretty much every country (including the United States currently ) implements both.

    And the problem is by demonizing socialism as the main economic structure, politicians basically succeeded in shaming people for any socialist policy they disagree with.
