I visited my niece in the mountains today -- Ruidoso. On my way out of town, saw a herd of elk by the side of the road, one cow right on the verge eating tree leaves. No pics; it was raining a deluge, traffic backed up, and the pull-off was [a] on the other side of the road and [b] already full with three vehicles. But I have the memory. <g>

I do use Firefox, but I'm not savvy to optimizing my learning curve/infrastructure--I just want it easy to set the browser to do the lifting.

I don't hotlink, and I have limited time for clearing out the escalated 'game of chicken' regarding my attention.

The other part isn't so dire, but everything is ever changing and I've no patience for figuring out the odds. I'll do without such things until I can judge I'm not impeding getting this under control.

I also prefer easy. Fortunately, this bit of Firefox is.

If you look at the address line from left to right, there's some icons, the https://address, then a tiny little 'page' icon. (A rectangle border, with 3 horizontal lines in the 'box'.) Just click that to get 'reader view'. It will show only the text of whatever article you're reading -- no comments or other extraneous stuff. It's very handy, especially for reading pages with eye-bleeding colors. And when you want to get out of it, just click the 'page' icon again.

but everything is ever changing and I've no patience for figuring out the odds.

Yeah, all we can do is our best.
