[Wayback/Archive] 🔎Julia Evans🔍 on Twitter: “I’ve always heard that you can’t create CNAME records at the root of the domain. But apparently you can? It seems to work fine as far as I can tell but I’m curious about the possible consequences. (yes, I registered cnameroot.com just to make this tweet) “

Sometimes one bumps into a Google Chrome extension that is both useful from a practical perspective as insightful on learning from how it is done.
This is one: [Wayback/Archive] iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome: Bypass Paywalls web browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.
It supports many sites (including more than a dozen Dutch ones) for which it is not easy to justify creating separate accounts for them (just the risk of them leaked into Have I been Pwned? is large, despite GDPR) and staying logged on for each of them. I have dozens of listings of my email addresses at haveibeenpwned.com, so I am a lot more careful making accounts than in the past despite assigning unique email addresses for each account (which is part of the burden).

[Wayback/Archive] Lennart Nout on Twitter: “@BouwmanEnergie @saskiakluit Mensen die doodgaan in het verkeer zonder “tegenpartij” zijn echt niet de grootste groep. De meeste fietsers worden doodgereden door auto’s, vrachtwagens en busjes.”

I was a long term user of “The Great Suspender”. It was a cool little Chrome Extension that would auto-suspend Chrome tabs that had not been used for a while and resume them when the tab did get accessed again thereby greatly reducing the horrible Chrome CPU and memory footprints.
During my year+ long treatment against metastasised rectum cancer I had suspended or hibernated most of my physical and virtual machines. So there was not just the surprised during the recovery of those that The Great Suspender had been kicked of the Chrome extensions, but also the problem of getting all the suspended tabs back of machines that eventually would be awoken out of sleep: I keep tabs open on stuff that I was working on or investigating for future blog posts, so these somehow could be important.
For now, I am not using anything as a replacement just to experience how well Chrome has evolved to suspend inactive tabs itself.
Now Chrome seems to do this well, as this post is based on an old VM that I have now unsuspended which had [Wayback/Archive] “the great suspender” “malware” – Google Search and the below links open in a mid-February 2021 state but not all archived in the Wayback Machine or Archive.is (some I did archived in February-May 2021).
The links are about why it got removed, how to recover lost suspended tabs and a possible alternative in case current Chrome suspend behaviour is not good enough.

The drawback sending out emails all with the same subject is that the receiver is having a hard time setting them apart.
Especially in the work or medical realm this makes people miss crucial information.
Worse are organisations broadcasting on Twitter, but not responding at all to improvement suggestions. [Wayback/Archive] @ZorgDomein / Twitter gets both wrong (and is also unusually hard to find phone contact information for on their web-site):

Based on these tweets, I want to write a bookmarklet that at least removes the s= and t= parameters from Twitter URLs, maybe even all parameters (TODO: figure out if there are useful Twitter URL parameters first):
?s=03” (or another number like “?s=09“). Deleting these URL parameters causes no harm. Or at least the truncated URL loads the same tweet. What do these URL parameters mean and who uses them? @twitter, #twitter, #tweeps”t= parameter works as is and sometimes it doesn’t work until we delete the parameter.”Even Jack Dorsey didn’t know they were introduced when he was still Twitter CEO. From the tweets below:
s parameter seems to have to have to do with both the kind of sharing and the type of client used.t parameter could correlate with the user ID.There is a sort of bookmarklet below which goes through an external web-site (search for “unfurl”), but I want to do it purely client-side.
