Windows user? Want to speed up browsing in Edge? No problem, add this to your hosts file.
@th3j35t3r Would something like that block *fucking* bing in FF.
They keep changing the bloody default browser every time there's an update?
@stueytheround Bing sucks so bad!
@Tail I know. I really don't get why Firefox are doing this (well money obviously). It's against my wishes and literally the default resets every single time FF updates and I have to go into my preferences and tell it to sod off!
@stueytheround I've gotten around to using Edge but even then it's a pain to set it to a home/search that isn't MS's default news page + Bing.
@stueytheround @th3j35t3r never liked FF - just something about it looks and feels wrong.
@Zebrano I find it really easy to use. I used to run Ubuntu and the fit was perfect for that. Just got used to it. So when I ended up back on Windows (long story) I just automatically used it.
There is just “something” that bothers me with it. Can’t easily place why either. Operationally wise not an issue - just font / icons / something about it that makes me go nope. Crazy huh.
@Zebrano Horses for courses. @th3j35t3r
@stueytheround @th3j35t3r True true. Edge is another one that I regret clicking on accidentally too. Strange the things that trigger certain reactions to actions.
@th3j35t3r So it'd just be 0.0.0.0 and the address?
I'd add one for 'c.bing.com' too.
@th3j35t3r Cool. Thanks. I'll give a go.
@th3j35t3r @stueytheround As one should!
@th3j35t3r Search engine! I meant search engine.
