Someone should start building vaults. Stock up on bottlecaps and Rad-X.

Fiction is getting way too realistic for reality.

Agreed. If any content creator makes an effort in their ad spots (Jay Foreman, How to Drink, and the aforementioned Internet Historian) then that automatically gets whitelisted on sponsorblock.

And often the ads for stuff like Raid or similar stuff can be jarring, with the audio louder than the actual video or beginning with some random sound that "captures your attention". Thank goodness for sponsorblock.

Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

I'm SE Asian, early 30s, and I was taught to drive using a manual transmission van with a column shift. 3rd gear would just randomly disappear too.

I miss driving manuals, but my knees thank me every day whenever there's traffic.

Or for doing a Dr. Evil "laser".
