I sure hope it's a while before smells come to the browser. I'm annoyed enough by autoplaying audio, although now that I think about it, it seems not to happen much at all these days.

Imagine getting rickrolled with the smell of rotting pig.

Don't worry, you'll be protected by the HP firmware. It'll detect that you're out of butyl compounds even though the scent requires none, refuse to spray the scent, and automatically place an order for you.

I love these kinds of projects. My favorite of online noise is https://mynoise.net/ Infinitely configurable, can save personal settings in a cookie. Good stuff

>My favorite mynoise.net/ Possibly the best, and very comprehensive. Great user interface. I am in touch with the owners, they're looking at creating a 'pub' option. Authenticity is important so until pubs are open, it sits in the planning stage, as all the appropriate recordings can't be made.

The myNoise pub is actually already open : https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/jazzBarNoiseGenerator.php

There's also http://imissmybar.com/ which was posted in the comments here a few weeks back.

That one works for me. But soundofthepub doesn't.. the play/pause buttons don't work here (the sliders work) - what in ublock's list do I have to enable to get it working? Everything from the actual site is green, it's only blocking google analytics stuff as far as I can tell.

I turned off ublock origin for soundofpub on my google chrome and it worked

This is how AirPods might work in a few years. In any environment you will be able to turn up/down the different sound sources around you.

Creepy shit

But I don't want to just turn it off - there are way too many 3party trackers there.

The play/pause buttons work fine on my side with default settings/lists. You may have enabled non-default filter list(s) which interfere, or you have custom filters/rules. Use the logger to find out what is being blocked to cause the breakage, and by what.

and the bathroom attendant in the guys bathroom not letting two guys go in the stall together to do cocaine, while getting berated by everyone in line about equality because the girls go in stalls together routinely

You guys have security in the bathroom?

It was actually my day job from which I eventually pivoted into infosec. The industry is full of people like myself who aren't bothered by the smell of human feces dressed up as technological solutions. Thinking back, I guess I came a long way. But it all started in that loo! Always remember your roots!

That was quick. Sounds good. I'm currently trying to discern the difference between the barman and the barmaid...

Replying to myself - updating Firefox from 86.0 to 87.0 and leaving everything else the same somehow fixed it. Play/Pause now do their things.
