Guess I’m ready for the PS5 Pro?

The real question here is if Sony is the fool for releasing an updated console for $599, or if I am the fool for buying it? Little bit of both perhaps? It’s definitely some kind of weird obsession to chase after the latest shiny technology thing, but I went for it anyways. 

The biggest slap in the face with the price however is the fact that it’s digital only, and then doesn’t even include a friggin’ stand. So I’m $110 into a device that hasn’t shipped yet. Factor in the $699 price of the console, it’s easy to see why the PC Master Race crowd laughs at game consoles. 

Chrome update blocking your favorite extensions?

So it finally happened, Chrome is starting to wage war on extensions that Google isn’t a fan of. These are mostly ad blockers such as uBlock Origin, but also some other extensions such as FrankerFaceZ for Twitch, among others. 

Luckily there is a pretty simple fix that works with the latest version of Chrome. It does require using regedit, so that is something to consider if you’re not sure what you’re doing. 

Open RegEdit and navigate to – HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome

Create DWORD and name it ‘ExtensionManifestV2Availability’ then set the value to 2.

That’s it. There is another easier solution however, which is stop using Chrome.
