Not OP but my general approach is similar: "I see it as wrong but do not feel entitled to impose my standards on others".

You can either root it or enable developer mode to install an ad-free youtube.

I've been really happy with the winger addon for managing tabs. I really am closer than ever to complete control.

(no relation, just a user)

It adds a dropdown list of windows in the tab bar in which you can name each window, move tabs between windows, and save/restore windows into bookmarks.

Now instead of having 1000 tabs in 20 odd windows and eventually declaring bankrupcy, I have 1000 tabs in 20 _named_ windows alongside 500 bookmark folders of (named!) past sessions. Much better.

Sure but traditionally this was a purely legal mechanism. There was no technological measure preventing you from copying a book, only a legal threat looming over _what_ you do with the copy.

Nowadays we have this very corporate-positive situation where copyright holders have their cake by embedding DRM and eat it too by leveraging the DMCA to prevent DRM circumventions. So you can be screwed even if you only want to take private screenshots, make backups, or exercise fair use.

You can setup a bazarr instance to use whisper as a subtitle provider.

See also selegiline, which partially metabolizes to levoamphetamine and levomethamphetamine. Not OTC though (antidepressant).

Nintendo's latest legal argument against emulators does rest on the DMCA's anti-circumvention provision. The letter from Nintendo to Valve in the Dolphin case makes it pretty clear.

It was already annoying to disable the (non-ad) screensaver on my (rooted) LG TV, I imagine it won't get any easier.

I can recommend the winger addon for managing tabs.

Allows for naming windows, moving tabs between windows, and saving tabs from a window as a bookmark folder.
