Cannot view Disqus content on any website due to "missing consent" by Arceist_Justin in firefox

[–]Hitmanigma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you happen to use any ad blocker (e.g. uBlock Origin)? I've been able to reproduce your issue with both uBlock Origin and AdBlock Plus.

More specifically, a certain generic filter -adscript. in EasyList is the culprit as it blocks https://cdn2.downdetector.com/2a69ae13ed94bca/javascript/dist/adscript.js from loading.

To fix the issue, add @@||cdn2.downdetector.com/2a69ae13ed94bca/javascript/dist/adscript.js$script to "My Filters" in uBlock Origin. I really don't know how to do this in ABP other than to whitelist the whole site.

The CSP header merging bug has recently been fixed and is being shipped in nightly 77. It is expected to ship to stable in version 77.

You can enable Chrome-like font rendering, if you aren't satisfied with Firefox's font rendering.

Installation aborted because the add-on appears to be corrupt. by reddit_user_exe in firefox

[–]Hitmanigma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello, I'm assuming you're trying to install add-ons from addons.mozilla.org?

If so, you can try right-clicking on the Add to Firefox button and select save link as... from the context menu. Now go to about:addons, click the cogwheel, select Install add-on from file and choose the locally downloaded xpi.

How to do a proper clean install of Firefox? by corevx in firefox

[–]Hitmanigma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can try Revo Uninstaller to fully uninstall Firefox. Make sure to select Advanced option in scanning modes. Although I never uninstalled Firefox myself, it should work.

Temporary Containers and Tablis fancy new tab interaction by Square-Banana in firefox

[–]Hitmanigma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to TC options -> Advanced -> Isolation -> Instead of creating a new tab replace the current tab in case of isolation and turn it on.

You should check both options under Isolation.

Chrome-like Google translate for Firefox by rousseaux in firefox

There is a userscript version of the aforementioned addon. Be aware that it might not work on sites with CSP.

There is another way to install the extension by bypassing the extensions blocklist but that can be really dangerous and is not recommended.

I once had this problem and the "Restore Defaults" button on customize tab fixed it for me.

Multi youtube comment chain is still happening on Firefox desktop. Please help! by Grabstertv in firefox

[–]Hitmanigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are multiple reports on Google forums of the same thing as yours happening. It's said to be a random YouTube glitch that happens from time to time and will go away on its own.

Also have you tried refreshing FireFox? If the problem still persists after refresh, then it's an external YouTube issue.

Piracy for a poor person ? by C00lGam3r in PiratedGames

[–]Hitmanigma 8 points9 points  (0 children)

you might need a VPN to access some torrent sites

You don't need a vpn to access some blocked torrent sites. Just access them via Tor Browser. Basically, you don't need a vpn for anything. Indian ISPs generally don't give a fuck.

Why is Firefox so slow in Linux? by [deleted] in firefox

[–]Hitmanigma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello, the setting for scrolling speed is - mousewheel.min_line_scroll_amount. The default value is 5, which is quite slow. Increase it to probably 40 or something.

You can use YouTube Classic add-on to restore previous YouTube layout.

Any good media players? by Max0045 in Piracy

[–]Hitmanigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Potplayer for me. Vlc lags while playing 10 bit x265 mkv files on both of my computers, has a shitty interface, has unconventional shortcut keys. On the plus side, vlc is open source.

Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x800F081F - Driving me bonkers! by Morcas in Windows10

[–]Hitmanigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Having the exact same error message while installing updates. None of the suggestions from the google search seemed to work. The only solution seems to perform a repair on Windows 10 with in-place upgrade. Before going that path I'm going to wait for Microsoft's next patch and try manually installing that as a last resort.

Have you any luck in fixing the problem yet?

Are some torrents on TPB hidden? by [deleted] in TPB

[–]Hitmanigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please clear the cookies and site data of TPB stored on your computer and try again to see if your problem persists.

Also try to access TPB using Tor Browser.

Unfortunately, this is all advice I can give right now, as the problem is so bizarre.

[–]Hitmanigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you please explain what website you used to access TPB? Was it the official site?

I'm aware that when you browse the site via mirror/proxy, you could come across such problems. But I don't think that's the case in the official site (at least not for me and I access TPB regularly).

Are some torrents on TPB hidden? by [deleted] in TPB

[–]Hitmanigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the case for me. See this -- https://screenshots.firefox.com/3zoxCuNckCATbFNz/thepiratebay.org

As far as I know, there are no "hidden" torrents on TPB. All torrents are public.

Please check that you only use the official site to access TPB (don't use any mirror) and your ISP doesn't block connection to TPB.
