Following a recent update the chromium browser is again
not working correctly. The most obvious defect is a persistent
"page unresponsive" window when trying to view YouTube.
Firefox-ESR works fine, so it isn't YouTube's fault.

I don't know if that is related to the problems I've been having with Chromium 113 and the BBC News website on my Bullseye Pi 4s, where all
apart from the first picture on the page isn't displayed, videos aren't displayed too. I removed ublock origin and no-script to eliminate them,
and it still happens with no extensions.

That's most curious. I'm looking now at https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-56837908
and the display seems just fine. There are lots of images,
all loaded and looking reasonable.
YouTube still won't load.

Try going down to a story page. The BBC loads images in articles on
demand via javascript.

Must be a different problem as it loads for me and plays videos.

Surely some mistake. Trouble is what the liberal politician seeks out, identifies, and then manages to propose state engendered solutions to,
that manifestly will not fix it, so that it remains a problem, and an
excuse for yet more centralised bureaucracy, state subsidy, and
restriction of personal freedom to fix it better.
The logical progressions of this is full communism, where nothing works,
and the politicians are the problem.

Mr. Philospher, very well said.
I see I wrote unclearly. I should have used the slightly longer
version of the last word. Here's the new-and-improved version:

The 30s era fascists only differed from the communists in the

My point exactly - and it still applies today.
Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist,
fascist, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The
human race divides politically into those who want people to be
controlled and those who have no such desire. The former are
idealists acting from highest motives for the greatest good of the
greatest number. The latter are surly curmudgeons, suspicious and
lacking in altruism. But they are more comfortable neighbors than
the other sort.
