A while ago, YouTube started to automatically play the Next video after your current one was finished. I didn’t notice the Autoplay setting to be persistent after browser sessions as between tabs it isn’t synchronised and I hardly restart my browser (as I usually have like a hundred research tabs open).
So I adapted the steps from: How to turn off YouTube’s new autoplay feature – CNET
To disable the feature, click the blue Autoplay slider switch that sits at the top of the right-hand column of Up Next videos. It’s that easy, and when I turned it off, YouTube remembered I did so after both browser and system restarts.

I like this: the plug-up affordable FIDO U2F Security Key by HAPPLINK.
You could already use it for Google 2nd factor authentication (2FA) through Chrome. You can do this from your own applications for instance through the U2F reference implementation.
Now you can also as 2FA to DropBox, also through Chrome. And it is easy with the plug-up key (Thanks Kristian):
Uuuund… umgestellt. Das war ja einfach.

Es gibt andere Fido Token, die können mehr. Ich nehme dieses, das kostet fast nix und man kann die kaufen und verteilen wie Konfetti.
Or inside the Europe mainland, for instance in:

Now that Yahoo Pipes is stopping, Chris Bernard rewrote his Dilbert/Penny Arcade/W.T.Duck feeds and published source on GitHub: https://github.com/cbenard/comicfeeds/
Feeds
If you use Feedly, and some (or all) pictures don’t show up for the Dilbert feed, then that is because of Feedly caching content. Use a parameterised URL fixes this: http://comicfeeds.chrisbenard.net/view/dilbert/default?something=something

This is getting ridiculous: G+ now completely stopped working. No CAPTCHA every couple of seconds after my laptop wakes up, but the screenshot below.
The “Unusual traffic from your computer network” – Search Help isn’t helping much either.
My computer isn’t sending automated queries. The Google related tabs (some 50+) in Chrome are, as they frantically try to refresh themselves when my laptop wakes up.
This is a Google and Chrome design decision:
It’s not my choice that this overloads the G+ system, so don’t bug me with that!

The article How to Prevent your Blogger Blog from Redirecting to Country Domains describes to prevent the country redirect from within a blog itself.
But what about outside readers that want to see a specific blog on the .com link?
One of the reasons they want to do this is that Google does not index the country redirected sites, they only index the com site.
I had this while reading http://delphisorcery.blogspot.com/. It kept redirecting to http://delphisorcery.blogspot.nl/ (as I’m based in Amsterdam; in Germany for instance it would redirect to http://delphisorcery.blogspot.de/).
But a site:delphisorcery.blogspot.nl search would return nothing whereas site:delphisorcery.blogspot.com would return the full index for the blog.
The trick is to browse the .com version of the blog with NCR once: http://delphisorcery.blogspot.com/ncr
If you do that, Google forces a no-country redirect (just like you can do with Google.com: browse to http://www.google.com/ncr), and it remembers that choice too.
Note that BlogSpot has not done this country redirect for ever.
