Well apropos of not a lot, my whole PC damnn near froze...when I managed
to get a diagnostic tool running Firefox had eaten 8GB of RAM and 2GB of
swap.

That was what was left over from logging in to online HSBC banking.
Nothing else was running.

All browsers are irremediable shit, these days.

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will
eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such
time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic
and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally
important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for
the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the
truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
