As promised, below is a screenshot of the second issue re page sizing for the BF website when using Safari as the browser.
This issue is NOT replicated on Chrome.

TL;DR

Safari is crap.

Not to sure what else to tell you mate. If you can move to Chrome I would recommend doing that. Safari is probably the worst browser out there.

Aside from that you could upgrade to a premium account to avoid the ads. But save the money and go Chrome first if you can.

Thanks, I am already there.
I had no idea that the browser software would be so problematic.
Once I understood what was happening, I realised I was getting the same issue on the iPad with the BBC news website.
Neither BF or BBC exhibited the issue when I checked on my pc and Bing.
Short distance from there to get the solution.
Many thanks to yourself and Hubnester for both your help.

And again why you pay for the ad free version.

Yes, alright for you wealthy North Caulfield, German leather seated people.
We do it tough down bayside….

Can't you use an ad bl**ker

He has an iphone tho you wouldn't let your daughter date a real low class ruffian would you

Nah, he's from Briiiighton. Collingwood supporters from Brighton are usually in organised crime but he's just a spoiled little shit. He literally gets his mum to drive his pillow around if he stays over because the little princess doesn't rate our pillows. He called his mum when we stayed up at the holiday house and was going to make her drive up the peninsula with it until I made him too embarrassed to. I got him drunk so he could fall asleep anywhere like any responsible adult would instead.

They're in the states at the moment and his mum has organised for his uncle to drive a ridiculous distance from a farm outside Sacramento to the beach outside San Fran to deliver them vegan organic shit to eat every few days because they are to stupid to use a shop like normal people. My family are from the country, we would have been horsewhipped for shaming the family if we'd turned out like that.

I've given beggars more than I've paid for Big Footy. If you wash my windscreen I'll pay for it for you.

Dunno, no issues with Safari here, I went over to Chrome for a while, but I think it's open to security issues, so I went back to Surfari. There's very little difference in browser performance across all the popular browsers.

Depends on if you're using the same device as sunny and if you are if it's the same model and size. Safari isn't a browser that websites tend to make user-friendly.

How will you be rid of him. I know you’ve been plotting

Can confirm this, my work we literally don't recommend Safari, it's not that it's unsupported but almost 100% of issues on website is with IOS devices, never Android. Android issues have to do with outdated apps to version info of Android.

My assumption as a would have been system admin if health wasn't shizen, sounded like a zoom issue with browser where it was shrinking to fit and disregarding table set ups. I know Safari tends to crap itself where's too much JS floating around to state "do these things with the page" so must be a memory sort of bug with the browser that it's then just defaulting settings randomly.

That'd be my guess, hell, last time I used Safari I managed to just get a straight black screen on a rando Google search, almost like the screen just straight died even though it didn't and it was straight browser failure. I tend to dislike Chrome just because Google like seeing what you had for breakfast and shat out to both give you targeted adverts as well as pre fill anything attached to anything Google related. Is quite invasive.

My daughter should do that her self, she's like a little version of her mum. If he's as delicate as he looks her temper should have him running home to mum pretty soon. I thought he'd fly home from the US on an earlier flight. He might be a bit tougher than he looks or she's got him scared.

Find AdGuard in the app store, it's easy to get it to work and once it's set up, you won't have to think about it. It's the one with the green shield and the tick in the middle.

I watched Luke Heggie doing this show. Pretty funny if you like Aussie blokey humour.

For anyone who wonders whether Rooey will be back one day or not:



I’m honestly staggered he’s gone there. Why anyone would want to live there is beyond me.

You do realise that particular tragedy was in Belgrade Serbia. Doncic just happens to play for Dallas, it’s a kind gesture from an expatriate.

Whoops. I just saw the Dallas part and when it comes to school shootings my mind goes straight there. Might be too early for me to be reading anything.

I will stubbornly stand by my point though. The first thing a cab driver told me when I went over there was “yeah we had another school shooting today”. It’s madness.

To be fair that's in Serbia which is a fair way from Texas. I have a mate that lives in NYC and was in Colorado, my daughter is over there now. You don't feel unsafe in everyday life and it tends to follow poverty and a lack of education so you feel insulated from it. Like if someone gets stabbed in Melbourne's outer north or far western suburbs, you just justify it as something desperate people do to each other. Even the Trump stuff is much less front and centre, there is more nuance to politics there than we get in the media.

To be fair if it was in the US it wouldn't make the news. There was one the other day where a guy walked into his neighbours house and shot a family including a little kid because they'd asked him to stop shooting his assault rifle repeatedly because it was keeping their baby up......and then there was the 6 year old that shot their teacher, but the family want to take the kid's disability into account as to why they can't be held responsible. Merica is a weird place when it comes to guns. Can't make them stop playing cowboys.

Formerly deported illegal which in a way shows what a hat full of problems they have. Hello I’m back and I’ve got a gun, how does that happen, zero gun control and no southern border at present.

Years ago my daughters then supervising professor a guy she now collaborates with was shit canned on Fox about a piece he’d written about gun control. You’ll never get there guns but the evidence is overwhelming, if you have a gun for self defence in your home it‘s a massive mistake. There is a very slim chance you’ll actually use it on self defence, if in fact the guns used it’s most likely to be on another family member or the owner .

So in conclusion get more guns because it makes us all safer .
