How to keep using adblockers on chrome and chromium

google's manifest v3 has no analouge to the webRequestBlocking API, which is neccesary for (effective) adblockers to work
starting in chrome version 127, the transition to mv3 will start cutting off the use of mv2 extensions alltogether
this will inevitably piss of enterprises when their extensions don't work, so the ExtensionManifestV2Availability key was added and will presumably stay forever after enterprises complain enough

You can use this as a regular user, which will let you keep your mv2 extensions even after they're supposed to stop working

On the 30th of June, my cloud provider, Oracle Cloud, decided to shutdown all my servers hosted on two Oracle Cloud accounts.
It is known that this provider will randomly ban accounts without any reason.

Why yewtu.be doesn't accept new registrations nor logging into an account?

Unfortunately and this is 100% my fault for forgetting that, I only had data duplication between servers located in the two Oracle Cloud accounts and no backups.
I thought that I wouldn't get all my accounts in trouble at the same time and able to recover the data from one of the two accounts but unfortunately this turned out otherwise.

Implementing some backup was something I had in my notes for a long time but I think I forgot about it, maybe due to the huge amount of work I spend on the open source projects.
I'm deeply sorry if you have lost your subscriptions list or playlists or watch history. I did try to contact Oracle Cloud for recovering the data, I'm waiting for their answer but you should be certain that they

Enable Processor Boost Mode Control in Windows

Disable Turbo Boost to Reduce Power Consumption and Heat

Why Do We Need It?

The thing is if your laptop cpu is getting really hot and you are trying to undervolt it then chances are 99% that there are no method to do so. I have also tried to do undervolt my Ryzen 7 5800H but no luck. Because the bios doesn't allow that much control over the cpu. I don't know the specific reasons for the manufactures to restrict such a great thing. But with this you can disable the Turbo Boost. While this might sounds stupid but trust me you won't see a massive difference in performance after turned it off.
