Not sol but not a bad in game option https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_PkctJzujQ

Wow, that Youtube video wouldn't load for me. I turned off AdBlock and Ghostery and received an ad, so I thought yay, now that they've shown the ad I'll get to see the vid. Nope, just sits there spinning.

Odd I get no ad before the video and it plays on both my PC and my iPhone

I have affixed the "Works on my Machine" sticker to my monitor

Weird, it works in IE11 but not Google Chrome. I think Google is starting emulate Microsoft, where Google's acquisition Youtube doesn't work correctly in Google's browser.

Mr. Analog · September 16, 2014, 08:56:49 PM

Ha!

I'm using Firefox *dances around*

As far as I can tell Google just keeps releasing updates to Chrome with no real goal anymore other than to @%&# around and break it every few weeks.

I thought that was how agile releases worked? Release early and often! lol.

( I AM KIDDING )

The last major update messed up my zoom settings for reasons unknown...

Hopefully it fixes ur problems

Updated Chrome and now the video plays. Before I updated Chrome it wouldn't play, but other videos on Youtube did. Weird...

With the M$ cash, Notch bought himself a new home costing 8 figures.

And of course, now someone has built Notch?s new mansion in Minecraft:
