I use Baking Soda and Vinegar to convert all videos in Safari (macOS and iOS) to the native video player. Automatically selects the highest quality video available and skips ads.

No - rechargeable AA/AAA batteries.

No - look at the IKEA smartphone line (TRÅDFRI and the like). They have stopped producing Zigbee devices that require CR2032 batteries and have released larger units that take AAA/AA rechargeable batteries.

Has this actually worked for anyone? I click on Review Uploads and the website either crashed or nothing happens.

Aug 9 (Reuters) - Currently spreading COVID-19 variants such as EG.5, or Eris, do not represent a major shift and updated vaccines in September will offer protection, the director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Wednesday.

"Right now, what we're seeing with the changes in the viruses, they're still susceptible to our vaccine, they're still susceptible to our medicines, they're still picked up by the tests," Director Dr. Mandy Cohen said in an interview on former Biden administration adviser Andy Slavitt's "In the Bubble" podcast. "We're seeing small changes that are what I would call subtypes of what we've seen before."

I wouldn't say they're out of fashion - a lot of smart home devices are moving away from disposable cell batteries and over to rechargeable batteries.

So Real-Debrid is a service that caches https-link-versions of popular torrents. Instead of torrenting, you select the movie or tv show you would like to watch and RD provides you with a list of cached streams (which you can sort by video quality, audio quality, etc). You click play, and it plays. It's gaining a lot of traction, compared to torrenting. There are some really incredible apps for Android TV's, FireTV's, Chromecast devices, etc.
