@glennjones you can turn that off.... There is a link on the search page somewhere.
@glennjones it's something you can turn off - but I don't remember how. Doesn't make it better though.
@glennjones they’ve beed doing that for a while. You can opt out, but I seem to get opted back in from time to time
@rem @thebeebs @fordie I have tried to turn the thing off but, opt out form does not seem to work any more. Its screwing up my dev work : (
@glennjones @rem @thebeebs @fordie It's a DNS based thing so you could try using different DNS servers (I use Googles 8.8.8.8 ones).
@Binarytales thanks for that, switching to Googles 8.8.8.8 DNS did it, can stop swearing now. cc @rem @thebeebs @fordie
@glennjones ah yes! That would explain why it came back on my new laptop
@glennjones could possibly prevent that from happening by using OpenDNS' or Google's nameservers…
