That's one of the reasons I don't go to public pools.
The other is that I just really don't like swimming

I wouldn't got to a public pool for the swimming.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Is your toilet out of order then?
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)

So I'm something like a youtube addict. First thing I do when I open my browser is open youtube and play some funky music! Or heavy metal, or dance, or what have you...
I'm subscribed to about 50 channels each representing a part of my music taste (with quite some overlap).
So I open youtube and I get something like:
Channel X:
[vid 1] [Vid 2] [Vid 3]
Recommendations: (I don't know why this isn't on top by default, it's usually second or third)
[Vid 1]...[Vid 12]
[Show More] (will show an additional 12 vids!)
Channel Y:
[Vids...]
Channel Z:
{Vids...]
Etc.
So as of today my recommendations disappeared! I loved recommendations! Great way to get to know new music, new channels, find funny vids etc.
Of course I Googled a bit and it seems clearing your browser history will get it back. Don't friggin believe it!
Where did my recommendations go?

You have presumably developed to much good taste for YouTube, and as a result it can't recommend anything.
Try cultivating an interest in Simon Cowell bands, and fat kids dancing and I'm sure it will come back...

Why don't you try grooveshark?
It's some kind of 100% free spotify with recommendations. ..

I have a Last.fm account, it also gives recommendations, but YouTube is the all-in-one solution.
I'm pretty sure it has everything GrooveShark has, but grouped together in channels.
Additionally it has cats. GrooveShark just can't compete with that!

Actually, you need to
1. turn off computer
2. turn back on
3. reformat your hard drive
4. install AbbadabbaLinux
4. install IronFacade web browser
5. go to youtube.com (no, not with a browser, with your car. Drive to youtube.com, get out and punch the developer in the nose).
It'll all be fixed. It's really that easy.
I hope to hear back about how this has fixed your youtube problem.

How many of you went and did a google to find AbbadabbaLinux and IronFacade browser?
Come on. Tell the truth. Probably millions of you, right?

I really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really FRIGGIN HATE those "please accept we use cookies" messages...
It's a Dutch law that any Dutch website that uses cookies must give the user a super annoying pop-up (in any form) informing them that the website uses cookies and that you have to be okay with that. It's a privacy thing I guess.
First of all I think most of the Dutch population doesn't know what cookies are other than the ones you can eat.
Secondly, I doubt if many people actually disagree to cookies. It's like the LUA, no one reads them and accepts them anyway.
Who the hell profits from this law?

It's EUscum; but since it regularly blights websites I visit in the US I suspect you'd get a lot of it even if it was dutch only because geolocation is harder than doing it to everyone everywhere.
I'm using any domain adblock rules to nuke it into oblivion.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

That law is completely useless since it doesn't require sites to work reasonably when you decline.

Well, the good news is that they don't pop up a message when they load a script or program to steal your passwords and banking information.
That really would be annoying.

Actually, the implementation of it may suck, but I gotta say I don't disagree entirely with the law. It's silly we have so many retarded laws I agree, but this one is at least better than one saying you must have your scrotum felt up to board an airplane.

It's an EU directive which I believe has the best of intentions (make sure that users are informed of relevant privacy concerns when they're using a website), written by people who don't really know what a cookie is and why it doesn't make sense to mandate a message for any site that uses one.
If the law were, for example, a message was needed if you used any third party cookies or cookies with an expiry time longer than a month (or even a day), that would be a lot more sensible.
