Isn't there a risk to get your blog blocked in corporate environment though? If it's a technical blog that would be unfortunate.

I discovered the problem by trying to access https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ ironically :)
There are several extensions to manage playback speed, most allow faster speeds. Do they work for you?

I wonder why we don’t have nuclear cargo/container ships.

As Hannah Arendt said : "The result of a consistent and total substitution of lies for factual truth is not that the lie will now be accepted as truth, and truth be defamed as lie, but that the sense by which we take our bearings in the real world - and the category of truth versus falsehood is among the mental means to this end - is being destroyed."
Sorry, I've only just seen your response. Are you able to share your screen using FF on Linux? It's been about eighteen months since I tried so perhaps things have changed since my experience.
I'm late too, sorry but I don't have Teams meeting very frequently, only when I'm invited to one, AFAICT it works like with any other browser, I can share my screen, I see the others and they see me, etc. Nothing special really.
It worked for a long time, I've been using Linux only for the past 25 years :) The Linux version of the Teams application never worked properly OTOH.
There are some gross approximations in the comparison. Oversized fibre optics networks laid out in the late 90s were used for years and may even be in part still used today; today's servers and GPUs will be obsolete in 3 to 5 years, and not worth their weight in scrap metal in 10.
The part about Jevons' paradox is interesting though.
It seems to me that he's missed Teams off his list of "where this might not work for you" situations. A lot more than half my money comes from clients who know of nothing else. I'm not pleased about this, but it's another part of their grip on their more-or-less monopoly.
Teams works in Firefox on Linux perfectly fine for me.

If we are voting on missing letters I want thorn(þ). My understanding is that thorn is one of the rarer sounds in the worlds languages, and it deserves to get it's own letter back.
On the topic of screwball spelling is this video essay on silent letters. The fun takeaway for me was that a lot of silent letters were never pronounced. it is just that when some of the first dictionaries were being produced, and the spellings decided on, they decided to introduce silent letters to indicate the origin of the word. the b in debt is because it comes from the latin debitum. but it was not spelled that way until the 1500's prior to that it was dette.

About silent letters, French did the same, but one of the unintended consequences was to change pronunciation of many words when reading became common in the XIXth century. For instance "admirer, admiration" had a silent d before ~1830, which is now pronounced by everyone. Ditto the "ir" termination of verbs, the "r" was silent, that's why old songs have strange rhymes such as "Compère Guilleri" rhyming with "te lairas-tu mourir", and "les lilas sont fleuris" rhyming with "qu'il fait bon dormir".
